| Wow, today was the 'Friday' day... they tell me Pa doesn't normally WORK on Fridays, so that is the beginning of the thing they call a WEEKEND. (which must be pretty special, or else they wouldn't get SO excited about it!) I went with Dad to go get Pa early from work, and he looked pretty happy- he had to work a LITTLE today. He said 'So long, suckers! I'm off to the weekend!' and they all laughed and waved, and said hello to me thorugh the window. I hid. I'm still not so sure why the people at 'work' LIKE me so much... We drove to a magical, wonderful place... it's called the OBERTO outlet... It sounds like my name, and it smells so GOOD... they sell beef jerky there, and Dad and Pa brought home a whole BAG of it. Oh wonderous goodness... They put it in the trunk. *pout* I would have shared!!! Well we went home, and Dad and Pa went to nap. They turned out the lights and everything, and said they'd be up again later. I felt like a good nap too- so it was all good! Dad got up first, and he smelled kind of funny. Like he was nervous, or scared before he woke up. I thought, 'aw, he's like a puppy, waking up from a bad dream'. so I laid down nearby him, just to keep him company- He promised me that someday, he would teach me something called a 'task' to help him deal with those bad dreams! I think that'd be great. For now, though- I offered him a snuggle. That went over pretty good, so that's something! Today, the sky was really annoying again. I don't know where we live now, but the sky keeps PEEING on me!! I don't like that, and I keep looking up, and frowning, like 'stop that!'... ...Dad says maybe I am looking for the bird to blame, but Pa thinks I am just commenting that I don't much care to be spit on by the sky. I think it's a rude sky, to always block out the sun, and be peeing on people. Hrmf. Someone housetrain those clouds! Big Bertha |
