Thank you Netflix

We do not have cable, or dish, or direct t.v.  We have Netflix.  Just Netflix.  Only Netflix.  Because of this, we can't watch all the bowl games at home.  We have to go somewhere to watch them.  Also, we get really excited when Netflix gets a new season of a show we watch.  Netflix recently got the third season of Sons of Anarchy.  Although we don't admit it to a lot of people, we watch this show and are anxious to get into the third season.  Let's fast forward and come back to this later.
Yesterday Kevin and I went shopping for our kitchen backsplash and were planning on meeting up with some of Kevin's friends to watch some bowl games, since we only have Netflix.  We were on a roll as we picked out the backsplash in about 30 minutes and were heading to Barley's, where we were meeting to watch the game.  This is when things got interesting.  I spotted a man on the side of the road with a sign for a puppy.  I wasn't planning on getting a puppy and either was Kevin, but we pulled over to take a look.  A minute later this beautiful black lab puppy was bounding towards me.  After lots of puppy kisses and play time, Kevin tells the guy that we will take him...............um, WHAT?!  I am sitting there playing with this cute little black ball of energy and Kevin hands this guy our freedom after 5 minutes of play time.  Trying to be rational, I said we needed to talk about it.  We proceed to discuss it, analyze it, debate it, and ask friends and family for help over the next hour or two, because that's what we do.  We were doing all this, while watching the bowl games with Kevin's friends.  The decision was made when we were discussing the long ride home with the puppy, I told Kevin, "He will probably pee in the car on the way home."  (We have a semi-new car and didn't really want it broken-in quite in that fashion.)  Kevin proceeded to say, "If it's a problem, I will let him pee in my lap."  Well, then, okay.  I couldn't say no if Kevin wants him THAT bad...so I said yes and we have a brand new 10 week old black lab.  He is adorable and I love him and I have spent all day cuddling with him and taking him for walks on the farm, which he absolutely loves.  So, Netflix caused us to go out yesterday to watch the games and Netflix ended up helping us name our new puppy.  For those of you that have seen Sons of Anarchy, you know that Abel is Jax's son on the show.  Welcome to life on the trail Abel!

Sweet little guy
