Chewing the Fat – Conversations with the Pack

I am Doodlebug, King of the Olde English Bulldogges.

Sweetie: Lady Human, how come you talked into your little hand box so long last night?

Doodlebug: Yeah, you talked and talked. I thought we would never enjoy silence again.

Me: I was chewing the fat with a friend of mine.

Sweetie: Chewing?

Doodlebug: Fat?

Sweetie: Where’s ours? I love fat chewing.

Me: That’s just an expression for talking…

Doodlebug: Another human expression that does not mean what it says.

Sweetie: Teasing us with the dream of chewing fat.

MoonCat: I don’t mind chewing the fat. Just make it short and lean.
