puppies!

My dad always jokes that among his kids, there is never a shortage of opinions.  Between the five of us, we never have trouble cultivating and expressing our thoughts - from Sam's blanket statements to my passion for Gmail, we are typically ready to share. 
 
One opinion that I denied for many years is that I'm not really an animal person.  Recently, though, I have found myself very drawn to puppies.  I just can't stop thinking about how cute they are... 
It's one of the odder feelings I've experienced to date. 

Other opinions I maintain are: I don't like crew necks. I don't wear collars. And I am not one for pants. However, I recently began to question all three of these opinions as well. 

I have been wearing my Jackie shell like a uniform. 
I purchased a check boy shirt and cannot wait to wear it. 
And last weekend I could not get enough of my jeans... 
All three of these items are a move away from my normally girly style (ruffles and bows) to a slightly more utilitarian look.

They say your taste buds change every seven years, but I'm beginning to think they overlooked something.  Maybe my opinions are just changing as I continue in this new phase of my life.  Or maybe puppies are just getting cuter...
