''Human/canine cohabitation project, day 1: Adopted a puppy from the local animal shelter to serve as the basis for my research. Subject designated as "Spike".''

''Day 3: Research subject more energetic than initially calculated. Keeps prodding a rubber ball with his nose as if to indicate a desire for recreation. As regular exercise is crucial to a domesticated animal's health, I will have to revise my project schedule accordingly.''

''Day 9: Research subject also more affectionate than I realized. Responds to positive stimuli with nuzzling and licking. I hope this animal has had its shots.''

''Day 15: Thunderstorm last night. Research subject Spike got scared, so I let him sleep in my bed. Stress levels lowered considerably. He even cuddled up next to me for warmth. It was... cute.''

''Day 23: Took Spike for a walk in the park today. It was so funny watching him chase a butterfly and roll around in the grass.''

''Day 31: First month of cohabitation project complete. Preliminary results -- Spike is the friendliest, most adorable puppy ever!!! Processing permanent adoption.''
