Is that a big dog?

A couple of years ago I went to the vet with Sassy when she started getting sick. I originally posted this on a weekend when mylot was having a trouble and nobody could respond, even still can't respond to these discussions (going to ask mylot to take them down.) So, here is the discussion again. I was taking Sassy to the vet because she was starting to have the problems that ended in her death last week. And I was parking and there was a guy in the lot getting his little dog out of his car and just STARING at me/my car. I get out, go around and get Sassy and then go inside. The guy looks at me hauling in the cat carrier as he opens the door for me. "Do you have a big dog in your car? Does he look like a giraffe?" "I have a giraffe in my car," I replied. "I thought it was a dog with his ears cut to make him look like a giraffe," he said. "Nope, its a giraffe," I said. "Eight dollars at a garage sale." Now, I've been driving around with it in my back seat because right now I can't find a safe place to put it, but I will... So, do you have anything in your car that excites comment?

It must be that this discussion causes the glitches. We can comment, but we are not getting notices. I do not have anything in my car that causes comments. People just stare because Bob is all the time polishing the cars, what ever we drive if we stop and he is bored he polishes it. So is the Giraffe still in your car,after two years? Would he be safe in the craft shed?

Giraffe - Here he is, with a few friends
No, shortly after that I moved him into my front room and he lives on top of a chest in here...

My niece has a similar one, and also one that is covered in some kind of leather. It really entices her cats, and she only has three. I am glad you saw that I responded. I think I will start a few discussions to make up for all the ones that are bound to be deleted about the glitch.

was going to say "what glitch" but I really don't know if they ever counted in the first place!

Sadly, no. Once upon a time, in far off days it was I who would attract attention. Now, it's like I'm invisible.

You are not alone there. BUT...today I attended the AGM of the place where I volunteer and a luncheon and most of the women there have huge tummies. I'm big all over; tall, big boned, big boobs and fat but I really felt OK today because I could see I wasn't the only one. Many Americans I can't help but notice are also big so you are not alone either. Don't feel bad sweety.

I often WISH I were invisible, so people wouldn't say things about how fat I am...

Me too! not that I've had much time to mylot, since I've been working on the front room project! Put in about 4 more hours tonight, and the roomie came in and helped for the last 3 of them... We cleaned out probably another 15 square feet of stuff, but they weren't piled as high, so... it only took half as long! If you check in the first response you can see the giraffe in question!

Nope I don't have anything in there that would be very exciting in my van. Though my mom was a dumpster diver and living in an apartment she would keep all the cans and her coupon sections in the car. Let me tell ya that was humiliating! Especially when I was in school, so I made her either drop me off way early or a few blocks away!

as much as I love giraffes, I would not carve up a dog to look like one...

The only thing in my car to cause comment is my walker. I haven't noticed any problems with MyLot, and I have been on every day.

thats pretty funny and i can see why you wanted it. i collected frogs many years ago and got comments about the frog stuck to my back window with those suction cups a few times. thats about all except when i would travel with my big black lab Bear in the car.

Our dogs don't travel well, the roomie's dog, Zoe gets car sick and Cujo, my dog, just knows we are going some place like the vets. The other roommate's dog, Precious, is just hyper and won't stay off the car seats...
