Abi left me a video comment on facebook (which you can do now) because she thought I would be a good person to show her excitement to for obvious reasons, and in it, she made mention of her poet-laced “excited voice” which isn’t so much excited as a little hyped up.
I kind of didn’t think of it until she said something, just that I don’t usually sound really excited. Especially when I’m excited about art, all you hear is a little twinge behind my voice. However, there are a few things I get really excited about: food and puppies.
In Persona 3, one of the characters is a fucking dog. You can’t even begin to understand how excited I was when I saw it. Yet I’ve never had a dog myself. We have ferrets, and I love them and hop around and play with them, but for some reason, dogs really excite me. I had cats as a kid and mice when I moved out on my own.
The only dogs I don’t like are ones that bark a lot. Last night, cops knocked on our door at midnight because the landlord’s dogs were howling and I guess annoying people enough to have them call the cops. He doesn’t really pay much attention to the dogs and they bark a lot which is annoying since their pen is right by our bedroom.
I’d like to get a dog eventually, but it’s hard to treat one right in the city.
