Hiking With Dogs

(Conversation on Facebook this morning. Note: We live in different time zones so it's much earlier for her than me.)

Me: I'm a cat person, but I sometimes think having a dog would be nice.
Mom: [landlord's dogs]?
Me: They are smelly lol
They are good dogs.
I wonder if [landlord] would let me take them hiking, but then what if something happened to them? Or, less tragically, what if they peed in my car? lol

 Oh . . . Alan Rickman passed. :(
(Why are you awake?)
Mom: Who is Alan Rickman.
I am awake because it's morning time.
Me: ... Who is Alan Rickman? Snape, mom. Colonel Brandon. Mr. Marsten. Hans Gruber. Dr. Lazarus. "By Grabthar's Hammer" The Sheriff of Nottingham.
Mom: Oh. I'm sorry. So he doesn't like dogs? It's early.my brain is still fuzz
Me: LOL :P
Mom: OHHHH Alan Rickman passed, as in he died? I was reading as if he passed you while you were hiking with dogs! Lol ha ha ha
Me: HAHAHAHA MOM Wow you need to wake up hahaha
Mom: Imagine me up in the office on the couch laughing hysterically by myself literally out loud!
Me: No, that would be a MUCH better start to my day, if I were running into Alan Rickman while hiking with dogs.
Imagine me trying to get ready for work, laughing through tears literally out loud hahahaha
Mom: Oh my. Breathe. Well, get a move on now. Have a good day.you started with a smile. . .
Me: Thanks mom :) You have a good day too.
