[nagdu] Getting back into the swing of things and Neechee'sbirthday

[Nicole Torcolini]

Okay, I'm already over my limit, but I can't help myself. One time, we were
on an airplane, and Lexia was laying on the floor in front of my mom and me.
My mom asked the flight attendant for a cup of ice for the dog. The flight
attendant had not seen Lexia, and she asked my mom, "Who are you calling a
dog?"

This is very funny. This is just like when your walking down the sidewalk,
your dog goes to smell something. You say Leave it, but there happens to be
a person, who you did not hear, and did not see, and they think your talking
to them. I have had this so many times happen. its funny, when the person is
like what do I need to leave alone. LOL
