All A-Board Games

Yesterday was a dull day.  I got up, ate breakfast, and went to work with dad.  At work I tried to go outside on my own but got scolded and promptly returned inside, then later there was even a gate put up to keep me inside.  As the end of the day approached, I got a little excited to go home.  So I hopped in the truck when the door opened... and got buckled up.  Yep, this was going to be a dull ride too.
  Turns out we weren't going home. Instead we went to my friend Quinn's house.  Yay!  I couldn't wait to get chased around.  Quinn was too busy to play but dad did occasionally peel himself away from the other humans to play with me.  Eventually I gave up and just lay in dad's lap and then later behind him on the couch.  Being close to dad always makes me happy.  I feel safe and loved.
  After some time, dad was finished his game.  All the humans were putting away all their things away, that was a good signal we were about to head home.  Instead of going outside though, dad went into a new room.
  In that new room there was a cage with two unidentified animals.  I was terrified and confused.  Dad seemed unconcerned as he reached in the cage and drew one of the creatures out.  As I watched from a distance, he just held it in his arms and pet it.  I eventually steeled myself enough to come close and sniff it.  The creature didn't smell or act dangerous, so I gave dad my ok.  He then brought out the other for me to sniff.  As I watched these animals, I circled their cage.  I sniffed at them and coaxed them to the edge of the cage to check them out better.  I found that as I watched them and sniffed them more, I became intrigued with these animals.  In fact I was downright curious about them.  I tried to play through the bars of the cage but dad wouldn't let me touch the cage with my paws.  I hope to some day get to play with one face to face, the bars of a cage are too limiting.  So I did what any kid would do; I asked dad if I could have one.  Dad in turn did what every kid's father would do; he said "we'll have to ask your mom."
  Maybe next time I'll be able to tell you I have a bunny for a pet.
