Breed
I'm typing off of @improv's timer. He's doing the long version of the weekend freewrite, I'm doing the short one. I randomly hovered over all the prompts with my eyes closed and landed on breed. Breed. Horse breed. Dog breed. Those are the animals where I think of breeds. I used to want an Arabian horse, back when I believed I would own my own horse one day. I'm not opposed to the idea that I would ever own my own horse, but I don't have my heart set on it like I once did. I loved that time of my life, where I got to ride horses and learn about caring for them, but as I got more interested in and busy with other things, horses fell out of priority. And let's not kid anyone, when I was paying for lessons myself, I quickly found that that money could be better spent elsewhere, or saved. Horses are a huge commitment.
Dogs are too, but not quite so much so financially. I would love to have a pug-mix with an underbite someday. I also want a greyhound. Only ever a rescue. And of course I love our mutt, and mutts in general. But greyhounds are so, so pretty. There's Brendan's timer.
Our mutt.
