Interview with a Puppet
June 26, 2000
Let me think. How angry is mommy with me? I knocked over a glass and metal candle holder off of the dresser, while mommy was sleeping. She hadn't gotten to the point where if she woke up, she could go back to sleep. So, I'm in trouble. Mommy said "Don't expect any treats from me tonight or tomorrow." She must really be mad at me. I'll apologize later. I did it because I wanted her up. I don't like when she and daddy are in different rooms. If daddy is awake, she should be, and vice versa. It's easier for me to keep an eye on them that way.
The Pets.com Puppet arrived today. I was so excited. I think mommy grabbed some pictures of me with him and put them in the archive. I'm not sure. I let her handle those things most of the time. Man that puppet is funny. I love those commercials. I think mommy and daddy do too. He's a real "handful."
I got to go outside today. I wish it was under different circumstances. The fire alarm went off, and it was too noisy to stay inside. I know it was a false alarm. We live in a really old old place, and sometimes it just triggers. This place used to be an old shoe factory! Sometimes, you can even get shoe tacks to fall from the ceiling! It's kind of neat. I've actually been able to climb the bricks. That's the neatest. I think mommy and daddy have pictures of it too. I don't think they have developed the pictures yet though! Maybe one day they will! So the fire alarm went off. Mommy didn't want to put me in my carrier, she figured she would let me run around outside on my leash and harness. Well, I wasn't in the running mood. I got on the ground and was in complete stealth mode. Nothing passed by me without getting a severe inspection. A bunny rabbit even made an attempt. Mommy, of course, held me so I couldn't go after it. Needless to say, after that I was not amused with her! The fire emergency trucks came. I don't like those. They scare me. I clawed mommy really bad one day when one went by. I think mommy knows that she has to hold me in a special way and get me the heck away from the fire trucks when they are near.
I will probably do some reviews later. I have to review the cat-a-trail that I got. Man that thing is great. Check out the news page, and I'll let you know if I did there. I must be going now! Talk to you later!
