A new pet is a wonderful thing. It can bring light into the otherwise dull and 
dreary routine of a graduate student. Yes, a pet would be a welcome addition to
your life.                                                                     
                                                                               
But not this weekend.                                                          
                                                                               
Not when you are on the cusp of finishing your masters thesis.                 
                                                                               
And especially not when the new pet is a small, yet incredibly energetic infant
raptor dropped off in your apartment by your friend Jerome who absolutely      
assures you that it won't be any trouble at all and will be easy to train and  
you'll hardly even notice it and besides it'd being doing him a favor to take  
it off his hands and you owe him a favor or two and he's pulling them in       
meanwhile all you've got is a nearly finished thesis, a leash, and a sadistic  
and destructive dinosaur that just scratched up all of your CDs!!!             
                                                                               
Breathe. Breathe.
