Context: My wife went out of town for a girls weekend and I sat at home with the dog for 3 days by myself.
Speaker 1: Recently my wife left me home alone with the dog all weekend while she was gone on a girls trip.
Speaker 2: Oh I bet that was fun. What kind of dog do you have?
Speaker 1: I missed her while she was gone. We have a mixed breed rescue pup.
Speaker 2: My husband was gone all weekend buying us a new puppy, so I understand feeling lonely!
