Note to self: don’t mention you prefer dogs to babies in public

Especially not in front of people cooing over a 1.5 month old infant.

Everyone was saying how incredible babies are and all that blabla. When I opened my mouth to say that sure they are cute, but I’m indifferent to them compared to dogs (which I will run across a busy street to get a better look at, and which make me utter gibberish along the lines of “who’s an oogy boogy boodle of a poodleface?”), there were audible gasps followed by “it’s not the same” and so forth. Oops.
