Well time to make dinner, I am thinking.
But first a little about Mr WhatAboutMe. I think his canine detector skills are starting to go into overdrive. He looks weirdly at me every so often. I get the feeling he’s watching and plotting. I am not sure what he’s doing, but I think it’s because the Alpha of the pack has vanished and it worries him. I also have the feeling that he doesn’t think that I am now the Alpha, and he thinks that it is he that is the Alpha. He also seems to be implying something, he keeps dragging underwear around the house and laying it by my feet. I can’t be sure, but I am almost sure I heard him mumbling something about knuckle-dragging, mouth breathing bipedal. I could be wrong, but I am sure that this is what he is thinking. As for the rest of the critters, they are still living in their little minuscule world. Ms Noise heard a leaf rustle and that set her off barking, while Ms B just looks around, wonders why the others are doing things and then goes back to sleep. And there is a saying that, it’s a dog’s life. These three show this, that’s for sure.
Ms Grumpy is also acting a little weird. As she lay on the footboard, this morning, I walked passed and she reached out and clawed at my hands - as she usually does. Although this time the actual spiky nails were not out, instead she pulled my hand closer, almost as if she wanted me to stroke her stomach. I tell you, I ran! Without the Alpha in the house, there is no way I am falling for that trick. First, it would be her stomach that it would be that she wants me to scratch and then, boom, I am lying on the floor, bleeding to death from the cuts of a billion sharp little grumpy nails!
Now, back to dinner. I switched on the gas to get some water to boil for the eggs. Unfortunately, things went downhill from there onwards. I’m not too worried about the right side of my moustache and beard missing, it should grow back before the Alpha of our pack returns. However, I must try and remember not to bend down close to the stove when I light the little lamp thing. Oh and probably need to provide the flame to the gas a little quicker next time. Although I have to admit that the creatures move damn fast when there’s a minor explosion. Unfortunately, I burnt the boiling water and managed to drop the tray of eggs on the floor. Good things for the creatures, although I would’ve thought that they would’ve eaten eggshells! Now I need to remember to clean that up before the Alpha returns. There’s also nothing in the pantry or the fridge. Oh, I know that if the Alpha were here, she would point to secret compartments and pull out food from all manner of places. All I can say is that I am not that good a magician. At least from a food point of view, there is SubWay and MacDonalds close by.
My Daughter and her Boyfriend popped around to do the birds. Which is sweet, although I want to know … birds? What birds? We have birds?
On a positive note, I have managed to kill off some chores, the couch has been moved and I have managed to hang a picture on the wall, which hopefully will stay up on the wall until the Alpha returns, so that I can get scratches to the head and some praise.
Miss you, my darling, see you soon…
Ok, this is the Bachelor, down and out, with tomorrow being another day!
