Athena and my husband....

I have a mini doxie. Her name is Athena. I have a Husband, his name is Dave.
My doxie, she doesn't speak (because she's a dog) so my husband speaks for her. Seriously.

This evening, my husband was making dinner and our dog decided she needed to come into the kitchen, to help, of course.

I told her to get out of the kitchen and she just stared at me ( did you know, Doxies are little demons who like to test the limits of your patience?)
Of course, my dear husband took this as an opprotunity to give words to what he assumed the dog was thinking.

"Oh, you want me to go? I thought I would come in and help you out. In case you dropped something on the floor and didn't want to bend over, I would just clean it up for you.
I like to help, even if it's a sacrifice....it's one I am willing to make because I love you."

Yeah, my husband does this on a daily basis. He does it with a high pitched voice.
It's pretty darn funny.
I don't know which is funnier, him making the dogs voice and speaking her thoughts or the idea that she has thoughts.

As I was typing this, Athena decided to go scavange in the kitchen, to see if there was anything that we dropped.
I asked her what she was doing and she just stared at me, I think she was hoping I would be able to magically make food appear in front of her....She does this alot, and as much as she tries, I still haven't been able to make that happen. She is persistant though, I have to give her credit.

I wish more people had her persistance, would make life much more interesting.

I wonder if they would speak in high pitched voices also.
