Well I was bored today and I was like, "You know I have a great itch to keep using my new camera... I should take Syrus somewhere today". And so I thought Pier 39 would be a nice place to visit as he hasn't been there himself just yet. It's a Sunday so I figured there would be lots of people to admire him. So it all works out, and I get to shed a bit more of the big city with some of you.
Naturally whenever I stopped to take a picture a hoard of people would surround me and the pup, asking to pet and take pictures. I couldn't walk one step without hearing the words, "beautiful dog, husky, pretty dog, oh look at that, etc". Naturally I allowed the crowd and little Syrus was as well behaved as ever. I was glad to see young kids approach me and ask to pet Syrus, since I was once afraid of dogs at that age for a few reasons, it allowed them to be exposed to dogs and fill in something that only animals can. Was a great feeling. At one point I felt like being a little son of a bitch and went back to the pier and sat down under the shade with little Syrus with me, and sat there to see what kind of crowd I could muster up. On and off I had a crowd and Syrus took it all well, I'm sure I'm just growing him a big husky ego. Anyways me and Syrus had a wonderful time at the pier. It gave me the idea that maybe I should get a sign that reads "Yes I'm friendly! Petting is for free. Pictures are $3." Heh that would be a kick, see if I could get any money or what not. It would be an interesting idea to entertain, but yeah.
Anyways, back home and a bit hungry. I think I'll go cook some eggs and then start preparing and packing for AC! Three days away!
