Freaky Friday

Remember that movie Freaky Friday where mother and daughter switched bodies and they have to live in the other person's shoes until something was resolved? I had a near Freaky Friday experience (but I am no LiLo yo!)...well as near an experience as I can get through my human.

It was raining yesterday and like all dogs I get a bit nervous when there are thunders about, so my human camped out in the room downstairs to have a nap with me while it rained in the afternoon. She dreamt that we switched bodies so that I can experience life as a human. Which btw I think is highly over-rated. As a dog I've got 4 humans fussing over me and all I have to do to earn my keep is bark whenever there are strangers about. I get free rein around the house, fed daily and copious amounts of belly rubs throughout the day. A pretty good deal if you ask me! So I think it is my human's subconscious that wants to experience life as a dog. 

Anyhoo, in her dream, after a few hours in my paws, she decided that she wanted to switch back to a human but she couldn't. Any attempts to scream for help came out as whimpers and her only way to communicate with the world was through...(get this)...Facebook message! I guess she must have found my doggie keyboard - the one with the keys widely spaced to accommodate my lack of fingers and size of my paws (I can type 75 words per minute btw).

This whole thing sounds like a nightmare to me. I can't do all the things I enjoy if I am human. For instance, I don't think other humans look fondly at fully grown people who request belly rubs in public, I can't lick smelly feet, smell butts and imagine the looks on people's faces if they see a human scooting on a carpet!

Nope, I wouldn't want to be a human ever. I am very happy being a dog thank you very much!
