She still hasn't responded to my last email. Maybe she is thinking or maybe it is "abosolutely no" I am not sure. I would hate to move from here since I have been living here for long and it is affordable, but I think if she still says no, then I will move.

I know some of you kinda (indirectly) suggested that I should just get one and tell her later and ask for apology. I wish I could do that, but I cannot. I was feeling really awful about not telling my landlord when I had my friend's yorkie for 10 days. He was well-behaved and I didn't have any problems so it was all fine. In Japanese, you can use different letters to write "Michiko" (my name.) When people name babies, they choose the best letters that fit the name "Michiko." I know it sounds a little complicating. So... my name "Michiko" uses the letters that mean "a person with morality, and follows the rule." So it makes it kinda tough for me to get a yorkie without her permission. I hope she can respect me for asking first and give me a chance. I will see.

Rent is really high in Boston, and I got lucky to find this apartment. Since I work for non-profit human service agency, I don't get paid much. The job can be emotionally dwelling and my life is also dwelling with so many personal issues.. I wish I had a yorkie therapist. I saw Yorkie USA's quote ""There is no psychiatrist in the world like a puppy licking your face." I think that is really true. Yorkie therapist is so great that nobody can replace them....

Michiko~ You know better than anyone what your situation is and I respect so much that you are unwilling to get a pup without prior approval. I was nervous about Piper the entire time until we moved but like I said in my previous post concerning the other two dogs...I am pig-headed and I knew my landlord pretty well and thought that if I had them home I'd have a better chance convincing him to let them stay. I got lucky but not everyone may be as fortunate. I hate to think of the downside...if he had said No after I already had my babies home. But again, you know your landlord just as I knew mine. Good luck to you sweetie and you'll get your baby in due time. Just hang in there. What a lucky little baby they'll be too!! I can tell you have much LOVE to give :p

Thank you, everyone for replying to my depressing post. A lot of people have made me smile by thoughtful messages. I am sure I can have a yorkie in the future.. just right now is not the time.. I think I will be watching my friend's yorkie Guinness on THanksgiving, so.. that will give me some joy.

Anyway.. thanks everyone!
