We are sitting in our truck just going down the road.
Rob is driving. I am in the passenger seat working on the computer like I usually do. Just some personal things like pictures and whatever, or working up a new spreadsheet program.
It has been a very hot day today. Temperatures breaking the 3-digit mark. A breeze helps to keep the air tolerable, so the higher temps weren't too bad. However, the dogs didn't seem to see my way of thinking at all.
Gizmo is laying on the floor where the air flows cold all over his body. He loves it there. Kali is usually on the bed, but this time she is under the dash where the air is colder there. Her hair is longer, so she gets warmer a little bit quicker. Gizmo just protests about the heat all the time, though.
It is nice and quiet. Not much conversation for the moment. That's when I break the silence with a huge and loud hiccup.
Rob looks down at Kali, then back at Gizmo.
He says, "Kali is under your feet."
"Yes," I return.
"Well, Gizmo is back there, I wonder what he is yapping about." Rob looked a bit perplexed for the moment.
I asked him to repeat what he had just said. I needed to be sure I was right. He did repeat it and I busted out laughing so hard that tears were coming out of my eyes.
"That wasn't Gizmo that yapped," I laughed out, trying to catch my breath.
"That was me....I hiccuped." I was still laughing so hard that I had to look away and wipe my eyes.
I have always made it a joke that when I hiccup I say right away, "Did you hear that doggie?" It's because it sounds like a little dog just barked. So, this time, without me saying it at all, Rob beat me to it after my hiccup. Too funny!!
