Me: I hear you’ve been doing some light reading.
Sinatra: Huh? Hey how about the sun coming up this morning? Wasn’t it just beautiful?
Me: Tell me about the book.
Sinatra: And the nerve of those geese this morning!
Me: C’mon now- the book?
Sinatra: I must say, you are looking snazzy in those running pants.
Me: They are compression sleeves. You know who that book belongs to don’t you?
Sinatra: Is she really mad?
Me: She’s not thrilled. Why’d you chew it up?
Sinatra: I just wanted to get a sense of the accuracy.
Me: And?
Sinatra: Its not even about dogs!
Me: Yeah. You could have just asked.
Sinatra: I was bored too.
Me: There it is.
Sinatra: What?
Me: You are a furry mess.
Sinatra: Yep- I’m your furry mess. You lucky dog you.

Sinatra: Your fantasy team isn’t doing very great.
Me: Thanks for the observation.
Sinatra: I can help you know?
Me: Oh yeah- whatcha think I should do next?
Sinatra: Well, you need to trade somebody to Linda for McCaffrey.
Me: She’s not going to trade him!
Sinatra: Let me talk to her. I bet I can convince her.
Me: She’s 10-0. She’s not moving anyone unless she has to.
Sinatra: Yeah, you’re probably right. Hmmmm.
Me: What else you got?
Sinatra: I think its time to start looking at the possibility that you won’t make the playoffs.
Me: What a pal.
Sinatra: I just think it would ease your disappointment. It’s ok, you’re still a winner cause you got me.
Me: Thanks buddy.
Sinatra: Next year let me help you draft.

Sinatra: This wind is super awesome!
Me: My face disagrees.
Sinatra: I feel so free! This is the weather of my peoples.
Me: I guess it is.
Sinatra: Hey! Why are we cutting it short?
Me: Cause I have to get back and get ready to play a fundraiser, and I thought we would try something new.
Sinatra: What, being quitters?
Me: No, a couple of solid 7.5 minute miles.
Sinatra: I think that’s an excuse cause you’re cold. You should toughen up.
Me: Says the pup in the weather of her peoples.
Sinatra: Look, I can’t help it your being a quitter.
Me: I’m not, and I don’t want to be late.
Sinatra: I’m disappointed in your life choices right now.
Me: You’ll get over it.
Sinatra: Maybe, but your favorite socks won’t.
Me: What?
Sinatra: Oh nothing…..

Sinatra: Pro tip: whiskey makes YOU slow.
Me: Yeah, thanks. I’m aware.
Sinatra: Did everyone have fun at my party?
Me: Your party? I think they did, it was nice.
Sinatra: Good. I looked but I couldn’t find my presents this morning.
Me: I don’t think those were for you.
Sinatra: Well that’s strange. I’m sure they said To: Sinatra on them.
Me: You can’t read.
Sinatra: True. But I’m still pretty sure they were for me.
Me: Because everything is yours?
Sinatra: I wasn’t going to say it but I’m glad you know.
Me: You’re hilarious.
Sinatra: Oh, are we doing comedy? I wasn’t trying to.
Me: Ok. By the way, you were very well behaved last night. I’m proud of you.
Sinatra: Thanks, I wish I could say the same for you mister whiskey man.
Me: You can stop any time.
Sinatra: I’ll be here all week buddy!

Sinatra: Hey, today is Linda’s birthday isn’t it?
Me: Yep!
Sinatra: What did we get her?
Me: Can’t tell you or you’ll tell her.
Sinatra: Its a well known fact that huskies are excellent secret keepers.
Me: I think you just made that up. Just now.
Sinatra: Google it.
Me: Google can’t find anything about it.
Sinatra: See- even Google can’t crack a husky!
Me: Hmmmm….. that’s a stretch.
Sinatra: Are people coming over to celebrate?
Me: They are- you have to be good.
Sinatra: I’m always good. I bet they can’t wait to see me!
Me: Seriously- no jumping!
Sinatra: Shhhhh…cccshhhhhh…. you’re breaking up.
Me: Stop it.
Sinatra: Fine, I’ll be mostly good. Minimal jumping.
Me: That’s probably the best we can do.
Sinatra: Happy Birthday Linda!! 🎂

Sinatra: What does coffee taste like?
Me: Goodness.
Sinatra: Well I like goodness, maybe I should try it.
Me: I don’t think you need the caffeine.
Sinatra: What’s caffeine.
Me: Goodness.
Sinatra: Ummm… well gimme!
Me: Nah, you’re hyped up enough already. It would send you over the edge I think.
Sinatra: I like living on the edge though.
Me: I’m sure you do.
Sinatra: So, can I try the coffee?
Me: I don’t think so, it’s not really made for puppies.
Sinatra: Fine.
-After the run-
Me: Whatcha got there?
Sinatra: Nothing.
Me: No, lemme have that!
Sinatra: Nope!
Me: (wrestles her mouth open) What is this?
Sinatra: I don’t know, goodness?
Me: Or one of the wheels off the dishwasher rack.
Sinatra: Well, thank goodness it’s not coffee!
Me: 😡🤬

Sinatra: What’s your favorite movie?
Me: Well, I have 2. Field of Dreams and Young Guns.
Sinatra: Nice. I think mine is probably the whole Harry Potter series.
Me: Really? I figured it would be an animal movie.
Sinatra: Well, there aren’t any great animal actors you know. CGI doesn’t count and Harry Potter has everything you could want in a movie- action, magic, romance, and etc. It’s all there!
Me: I can see that. I’m a big fan too.
Sinatra: Plus, I’m pretty sure I’m a wizard.
Me: Oh yeah- what makes you think that?
Sinatra: Sometimes I think, man I wish I had some eggs, and Bam- you give me eggs.
Me: That’s not magic.
Sinatra: Well, it is kinda. They taste magical.
Me: You are a funny fantastic beast.
Sinatra: I know. Hey!
Me: Yep?
Sinatra: Accio Eggs!
Me: 🍳

Me: So tell me what happened to your face?
Sinatra: How was your gig last night?
Me: Fine, and your face?
Sinatra: Wanna hear a joke?
Me: Nope- tell me what happened to your face though.
Sinatra: Interesting story.
Me: Go on.
Sinatra: So, Linda was dying the other hoomans hair last night and they decided I needed some too.
Me: You sure that’s what happened?
Sinatra: No.
Me: Ok- let’s hear it.
Sinatra: I felt left out.
Me: Yeah?
Sinatra: So I might have snuck a little for me.
Me: I see.
Sinatra: I’m going for the punk rock look. What do you think?
Me: I’m not so sure.
Sinatra: Can’t wait time show Luna!

Sinatra: So I had a funny thought this morning.
Me: Let’s hear it.
Sinatra: What if, there’s a planet out there somewhere, where the hoomans were in charge and the puppies were pets.
Me: Ummmm. 🧐
Sinatra: I know it’s crazy, but stay with me. You know how I teach you how to keep throwing the ball for me? Well, on that planet the hoomans teach us how to go get the ball and bring it back.
Me: I see.
Sinatra: Yeah, and you know how you leave and give me a break from taking care of you every day? Yeah- on that planet the hoomans do all the work and the puppies get to play.
Me: Wow, that sounds really rough.
Sinatra: I know- you’ve really got it pretty good. And so you know how here I go outside and dig up the yard to protect you from all the moles and rabbits?
Me: I’m familiar.
Sinatra: Well, there there aren’t any moles and rabbits so it’s way easier for the hoomans.
Me: Sounds like a nice place.
Sinatra: Oh, and you know how I take you on these runs all the time? Well on that planet the hoomans take the puppies on runs. Yeah- the hoomans decide where they are going and how fast they run and everything. Crazy right?
Me: Hmmmm.
Sinatra: Yeah, it’s silly, but I bet it’s out there somewhere.
Me: We can dream right?

Sinatra: So our other hooman gets here tomorrow?
Me: Yep- are you excited?
Sinatra: Oh yeah- I bet she can’t wait to give me all the scritches!
Me: I’m sure she’s on the edge of her seat.
Sinatra: I bet it’s really lonely without me.
Me: Sure is.
Sinatra: WOW, so what do all the other people without husky’s do?
Me: I guess they are just super lonely and less covered in fur.
Sinatra: That sounds awful.
Me: Yep- pretty bad.
Sinatra: I’m glad you have me.
Me: I’m glad I have you to furball.
