10 Reasons My Dog Is My Best Friend

They don't care what car you drive. They don't care who you know. They don't care where you live. They don't care what you wear. They only care that you're there.

1. They give the best cuddles.

Dogs are pro-cuddlers, it's like they know just how to not piss you off. They shift with you when you sleep and help make for a peaceful night of warmth and comfort,

2. Dogs have your back.

They defend you in all circumstances. Even if it's just your little brother knocking on the door, they go into full defense mode until they realize you're alright.


3. Dogs act as mini-dishwashers.

Have you ever been done eating and thought, 'Man I waste so much food', if so get a dog! They act as mini-dishwashers and will clean up just about any mess you make on your plate.


4. They're mini-motivators!

I have never seen someone or something so excited to go on a walk before! In fact, all you have to say is outside and they're practically dragging you to get moving.


5. You NEVER have to eat alone. (...or you never get to eat alone)

Friends busy? No money to go out to eat? Don't be alarmed! You'll always have a sidekick sitting by you with puppy dog eyes willing to eat with you. Those puppy dog eyes never get old!


6. Dogs don't hold grudges.

We all have someone holding a grudge with us or we're holding one with them. Good thing about dogs? They don't hold grudges. They typically deal with it and move on. Could you imagine what a world we would have if humans acted that way?

7. They aren't judgmental.

We have all done something stupid and best friends are always there to hear us out. But good thing about dogs is: they don't judge. Your human best friends can say told you so when things go wrong. But dogs, they don't do that. All they do is curl up on the couch with you and love you for you. (And all the stupid things that come along with it.)

8. They're never moody.

Waking up in a bad mood is nearly impossible for a dog. They can fall asleep at the same time as you but they're always more ready to get up and get going then you'll ever be. If only it were possible to send them to work for you at 5 a.m....

9. Loyalty.

If you show a dog love, they will love you forever. You don't ever have to be afraid of breaking up or parting ways because that bond sticks, no matter how long you're out of the house they will always be most excited to see you.


10. They love you more then they love themselves.

You could have done something so terrible that it made the entire universe hate you. That'll never happen with a dog. As long as they're breathing, they'll love you unconditionally.

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
