My children are dying for a puppy, but I guess they’re just going to die, because at this point in my life I am enjoying not having to scrub pee out of the carpet. Go figure.

The poor deprived children have to content themselves with playing various animal-related games on their Nintendo DSs (when I let them have video game time, which is never, because did I mention how I am the Meanest Mother Ever?).

But if I were in the market for games for them, I’d probably be pretty excited to see that eligible Petz 2 games are buy 2, get 1 free at Amazon right now.

Then again, if I was buying them those games, I’d probably be a nice enough person to get them a real puppy. Oh well!
