TV A Memory

Posted by Charles Mudede on Sat, Jul 25, 2009 at 10:12 AM

She charmed millions without ever saying a word, and managed to make fast food tacos adorable. Gidget, the Chihuahua best known for her Taco Bell ad campaign, died from a stroke on Tuesday night at age 15.

Gidget, I remember you. It was 1999, and you lived with my friend, an animal trainer, in Santa Monica. You did not talk, your bowl was full, you seemed bored with it all. I slept on the couch; you slept in her room. That's as far as the memory goes. See you at the crossroads.

I think this is what you meant:

"Gidget, te recuerdo. En el 1999 vivias con mi amiga la instructora de animales, en Sta. Monica. No charlabas nada, tu plata era llena, pareciste aburrida con todo. Yo dormia en el estufe; dormias en su cuarto. Esta cumple todo la memoria de ti.

"Te vere en la encrucijada, con mobledey brown, jokay?"

I've never met a bored chihuahua. The last chihuahua I knew got so excited when I came over to visit, it lost control of it's bodily functions when I touched it. The little idiot creature would not leave my side for the length of my stay. I think this dog liked me because I was nice to it. Y'know? Like I talked to it in a nice voice and pet it, and for some reason the dog liked me back. Strange how that works.
