The Joy of Pets
Dear Aldina,
I appreciate your enthusiasm when you bound off furniture and race through the house -- almost always. Was it really necessary, though, at 4:30 this morning, to launch off the bed and race down the hall simply because you felt like it? Your sudden move woke me so startlingly that I rose from bed like Dracula from his coffin. Straight up to vertical. And then, you found my pile of Pampered Chef paperwork that I'm still organizing on the floor and had a romp through it causing my shocked brain to wonder if we had been invaded. I was so alarmed that I woke G so we could do battle and defend our house. I had grabbed the bat before I realized it was just you.
So now, all the humans in the house are wide awake. Breakfast was on the table at 5:30. The only ones sleeping are dogs.
I wish I could even think of an appropriate retribution that wouldn't cause me more sleeplessness. Grrr...
Sincerely,
Alpha Female
