It's So Hard To Say Goodbye.....

Now I know why the Boyz II Men song "It's So Hard To Say Goodbye" was written. It was written just so that I could serenade the live feed puppies next week when they leave the interwebs forever (well, almost forever). The owners of the Shiba Inu puppies posted a little note this past weekend saying our children are old enough to start going off to their new homes this weekend. Yes, this fucking weekend. Why don't we have a say in this?

And why do puppies have to grow? WHY?!!!! Obviously, God created puppies, but he did not intend them to become dogs. No, he did not. He wants them to remain puppies forever. Puppies that entertain us 24-hours a day on the internets by licking each other's assholes and biting at each other's eyeballs. The other day, I think I saw one of them commit attempted murder on another one. It was really fucking adorable.

Anyway, here's the little heartbreaking note the owners left:

a few people have been asking about when the pups will start leaving our home. Sorry to say that the first couple pups will likely start going to their new homes next weekend.

Do note that my wife and I *have* decided to keep one of the litter (yay!) so we'll likely have the webcam positioned in different rooms so you can tune in and watch the pup grow. =)

And finally, regarding Ustream... the founders have generously offered to give each of the pups new owners a webcam. While we'd like to thank John and Brad for their offer we would like to point out that acceptance will be up to the decision of each individual owner. There are privacy and other concerns that each owner needs to think about before embarking on such a decision.

The truth of the matter is: I want to see PUPPIES!!! PUPPIES!! PUPPIES! I don't want to see dogs. I have one of those dog things at home and I already stare at him all day. I stare at him so much that lately he gives me the side-eye and then turns around so that his ass is facing me.

I don't know how I'm going to deal with life when they finally leave. I just want to open the window and wail this song:
