The Yippiest Accessory You Could Buy

Seriously. What is this?
Okay, it's an incredibly cute puppy dog. A toy dog, I hear those crazy kids are calling them. And I want this one. But not for reals because I fear I would accidently forget to feed it or something.

But what is this?

When did this become fashionable? I mean,I know a certain girl famous for being rich does this, but seriously? I thought we mocked her? When did we start emulating her, girls? I'm noticing this alarming trend. Going to the nearby shopping center with lots of outdoor space this summer, I noticed that quite a few little teenage girls and twenty-somethings were carrying around their own little yippie dog, or leashing it around. Because shopping cannot be done without it. Kind of like the right pair of earrings.

And then today I was at the pet store with a friend. Which, by the way, is a total misrepresentation. Why are there so few pets at the pet store? Remember when they used to have kitties and puppies you could look at? They totally don't now. Just fish and cheepy birds and a few paranoid guinea pigs. Oh, and some lizards. So at least there's that. But that's not my point. My point, it turns out, is I was this close to running out and getting my own personal little accessory, just so I could get this:

Jack Sparrow, you have never been so handsome. Found at petsmart.com.
Bzzzzz. Bzzzzzuy this at amazon.

Pheeeew have looked so cute for halloween. Also at Amazon.

See my dilemma? Even though I reeeeeally don't like dressing up myself, I could dress up a puppy!

I tried to dress up the cats once. They scratched me. And I had a dream that Paris Hilton and I were friends last night. Until she wanted to go shopping and I couldn't afford to go with her. Then we weren't friends anymore. I am glad you're my friend. You wouldn't do that to me. And, in my dream, Paris Hilton put burbon in her beer to make it "creamier." Who does that?!?
