Dear Sheri,
I do not think that it’s weird to talk to animals. I don’t have any, but I baby sat
my son’s bird last year, and he loved when I talked to him. Animals need
to communicate just like people. They will let you know if they don’t like it.
One of the weird things I do is start reading a magazine from the back to the
front. Then I go back and read it the regular way or the way people say is
regular.

i always talk to my lily and she talks to me too. i also talk to all my granddogs and grandcats. i think they understand so much of what we say or at least how we say it. i like the fingerless gloves too. so often my hands are cold at the computer. will have to try some of those after the sock adventure slows down. must go look at sweet georgia yarn. happy knitting

I love the fingerless gloves! Could you share which pattern you are using? I have started a pair using the pattern at The Purl Bee http://www.purlbee.com/greenaway-fingerless-gloves/.

And we talk to the dogs all the time!

I talk to my four-legged family members on a continual basis, and believe it or not they sometimes answer. I have to confess that there are times when I think they understand me more than my two-legged family members. I posted pictues of my Yarntini on my blog, my cat likes it too.

I know what you mean about relating to others “weird things” – glad I’m not the only one! And, I can’t wait to be a Loopie Groupie!!

I do the same thing with the drinks…and I don’t know why.

I also talk to the dog all the time. Most the time she knows what I am saying!

I just placed my first order. I want to be a Loopy Groupie too!

I am an animal talker myself. I don’t find it strange because I know quite a few others that are the same. What I thought was funny was your comment about your WH because I thought it was only my boyfriend who was a nut like that. He always leaves at least that 1/2 inch in his drinks too but never goes back.
