But when I think too much (i.e. not talking) then Matt gets suspicious and wonder what am I thinking about that I can't share with him. It's like a no win situation. But lnet is right, some thoughts are meant for some friends, but not all. And then there are those that are meant for only you. As for the rich question, I think maybe their world is SOO different than ours that they don't miss those chores because either they never did them (the Hilton sisters) or their life is now so consumed with parties, starbucks, fundraising galas that you don't even have the time for that stuff.

I think it is often why I end up feeling lonely. Because I have all these thoughts and no one to share them with unless I make a phone call or go out for a drink or over to a friend's house. However, I do try to make the time to have those philisophical discussions with people. It is just that some friends are not meant for that role.

Dogs seem welcome everywhere and everyone has one. I thought Madison was a dog friendly place until I moved here. Though, I don't think they let you take your dog on the train like they do in Europe.

Is this true for other continents? If you live abroad in Europe, you no longer need a pet dog because wherever you go, other people will be allowed to bring their dogs there.
