MIDS week 8 not final

This week was about the same as usual. There were a lot of people their working, volunteering, or doing community service. I think that there were a lot of high school students there.

A lady found two dogs on Rangeline and brought them in. One of the dogs got away from them with a leash still around his neck. He ran around outside for about five or ten minutes before they caught him. The way they wound up catching him was the lady opened the door of her car and he jumped in. I thought it was kind of weird that the dog wouldn’t let anyone get near him, yet he was very willing to jump in the car.

It always amazes me how animals each act a different way. None of the dogs that I took out today were the same. Some were playful while others were bashful. The two dogs that I didn’t expect to be very affectionate were extremely sweet and loving. They both just plopped right down on my lap and sat there.

I feel like the people who work there are used to me now. I still don’t really feel like I am very wanted there. Or maybe I should say that I don’t feel like I’ve been accepted into their social circle. No one really interacts with me that much or if they do they are very short spoken about it. None of them seem to ever be very happy. It seems like when they have customers they put on the cheerful face and when they leave they are quite and maybe slightly depressed. I just don’t understand how people can be so lifeless. I don’t think that I have ever seen them joke around with each other. It makes me wonder what the rest of their lives are like.
