Luna-speak

I suppose this comes from knowing each other for our whole lives, but Charlie and I have a shared understanding when it comes to our conversations. I swear, sometimes we don't make much sense, but we always understand each other and what we're trying to say. So this is what married life is all about!

This is especially true when dealing with our dog. Sometimes, there just isn't an English (or Spanish for that matter) word to explain our "Luna experience"--she's kooky, she's crazy, and she's a Luna-tic.

Somehow, over the past several months we have inadvertently created a "Luna Language" to describe her behavior, and these words have become a regular part of our vernacular. We will share some with you....

Schnermal, v. To strangely creep about
"Luna schnermaled behind the couch."

Snug, v. To forcefully cuddle
"It was so cute when I sat on the couch and she snugged to me."

Squiggle, v. To sqirm/burrow in order to cover one's self awkwardly (esp. with blankets)
"She squiggled under the red blanket"

Spexico, n. The "country" where Luna is from. It's a mix of Space (because of her name, Luna) and Mexico, because she's part Chihuahua.
"That's why she does that. She's Spexican."

"It"...we usually refer to her as an object, especially when her behavior is bad.
Kathryn: "Where did it go?"
Charlie: "It's eating."

We are sure that we are crazy. :)
