I Think I May Love Dogs Too Much

A few days ago, I was hanging out with this girl I like. We had spent the whole day together and were having a really interesting conversation. It was amazing, I was totally absorbed into said conversation and I was having a great time. Someone with a black lab comes walking past the bench that she and I are sitting on and I find myself immediately broken out of the little world I'm sharing with my friend. I immediately blurt out, "Is the wittot dawgie niiiiiice?"

The girl holding the dog smiles down at me on the bench, nodding she says nicely, "Yah, he is..." At this point I completely stopped hearing what she said though I'm almost completely sure noise continued to come out of her mouth. This noise obviously did not matter as I had heard what I wanted to and the little voice in my head began to laugh maniacally at the thought of attack hugging this dog.

I rush off the bench and blitz the black lab. Wrapping my arms around and petting the dog while near squealing baby talk at him. Th weird thing is I won't use baby talk with babies. Just dogs. They are much more special and worth looking like a retard in front of a girl I like. It's true. To me dogs are awesome enough.

So, I realize after about two minutes that I have A) interrupted this girl's walk, B) near attacked her dog, C) made a fool of myself and D) am looking increasingly foolish by the second. In response to this rushing feeling of self conscious stupidity I removed my arms from the dog's neck and looked at the girl with a guilty look on my face and said, "Ummm...Thanks..." I sit back on the bench next to her and look at her apologetically and then laugh quietly.

The dog then walked over to her and nudged her knee with its nose, she wouldn't even look at him. MEAN.
