Get a puppy if you like dogs. Not only does it give you a companion, it gives you a topic starter and gets people coming up to talk to you. Also there tends to be a lot of great events for dogs depending on your area. This more than likely would also include a move since a lot of apartments...
Have you checked your selection filters? Go to view -> toolbars -> and click selection filters. Make sure that at minimum the filter for sketches is on.
