Wanted: dogsitter for a week-ish

Must love dogs. This dog here doesn't know he's a dog. He thinks he's a midget human.

Compensation: $100 (negotiable) for one week-ish (8/29 - 9/6) of puppy love.
Actual tasks: 3 walks a day, refill (dry) food and water as needed. Multiple hugs and snuggles required. He might want to play fetch sometimes or stalk squirrels. More often than not, though, the squirrels get the upper hand. But he's pretty happy napping in a sunny window too.

Would you light my candle...?

There's only us
There's only this
Forget regret--or life is yours to miss.
No other road
No other way
No day but today...

Dear readers, I would have posted this sooner, but such craziness. That said, if you've never seen RENT, be it in film or live format, you need to (yes, I mean you!). For those who aren't aware, several characters are portrayed by the same actors on stage and on the big screen.

(RM: wait, you'd never seen it live?! seriously?) Yes, seriously. And now, remedied. Thank D for that, and for informing that it is, indeed, the last tour, and for poking in, just now, and telling me she just listened to several albums by the guy who plays Roger. Woohoo!
