I used to have this beautiful collection of plants & flowers, and the first week I got my dog she killed them all and I looked at the dead plants and said “sorry, I have a new friend now” and then looked at my dog and said, “you know, if I ever have children this happens to you"

I’ll be very sad when in 15 years my dog dies, but hopefully by then. Will have more things in my life to care about so I will be able to compartmentalize it

When I was a kid I was in the car with my nanny when she ran over my mom’s dog and I was like “we should lie about this and throw the dog in the river and say it ran away” and I was overruled and then my mom was so sad and I was like “it’s just a dog. You have human children” ...

And what I realize now with my dog Hadley is that if this happened to her I would put a bullet straight in your brain and never forgive you.

Then a decade later I went to college and my mom let my dog run onto the highway and get murdered and I was like “well even steven"

Hadley is such a cute little dummy. All she wants to do is hang out and be friends

Hadley is the first dog I’ve ever had as an adult aka had to properly be responsible for in any meaningful way

The only reason I got a dog last year was bc when coronavirus hit I was in LA to see this girl and I got stuck there for longer than anticipated and she had a cute puppy and then when I cam back to NY and that fling had ended I was like “me want dog”

And I chatted with her for the first time in 10 months recently and we were like “hope you’ve been doing well” “yeah we both made mistakes” etc and I was like “ill always owe you for the fact that I got a dog because of you” and we lol'd
