Won't you be my neighbor

Thursday night I went down one flight of stairs to watch some TV with my neighbor Jen. Other than going to a diner for some hot chocolate when I first moved in, this was the first time we've hung out. It's nice to have someone my age around here to do things with. And with Lauren headed off to London, it's probably a good idea for me to try to meet some new people. Plus Jen just got a dog (a 1 yearish old yellow lab/Sharpei mix named Zoey) that is really cute. I offered up my pet-sitting and dog-watching services but seeing Zoey curled up at Jen's feet totally made me want to get a dog of my own.
