The Dog advice

My dog barks all night! "Why won't you sleep at night?" - I ask, irritateted "Why don't you?" - he talks back Horrified, I sit back! He notices that I don't sleep at night too? Is he judging me?  "Why would I judge you?" - he says, reading my mind - I'm your dog!

I wish I could ride the bike and feel the wind in my hair (I was bald). "Man...I wish I could get out of this house and walk around and touch some trees" 

"I wish my hair curled up once again" (I hated my curly hair)

Yeah...Long story short. I survived cancer. And I never wanted to see animals locked up for entertainment. I never went to the zoo again.
