not as planned

so all i wanted to do tonight was come home from work and read, relax, and play with my dog. it was a crazy day at work and i am exhausted. however, that was not meant to be. by some stroke of non-luck i was scheduled to work at the shop, despite the fact that it's one of the few nights i'm not available and didn't get home until nearly 10:30. now i just want to go to bed and crash! but my poor exuberant little puppy has been alone all day and i don't have the heart to send him to bed just yet.
