I do this all the time. I'll call my sister and say "we're coming over". Or I'll tell someone about my weekend and I'll say "we went hiking". Everybody who knows me knows I'm refering to Fenway. I'm sure they thought it was nuts at first, but now they expect it and they don't think twice about it. But people who don't know me very well must be wondering if I got a new boyfriend or something. It's funny.

Even when I make plans to go over someones house, it's assumed I'll take Fenway. We're best friends. Where I go, he goes and vice versa. People have to tell "don't bring Fenway" or I'll just automatically take him with me.

Non-pet people think this is strange. I think it's normal.
