As Always, It's What I Do


 Dad's brain has been kidnapped by his work for a while now, and he barely has the mental capacity to pay attention to me and mom these days. I've had to take the reigns here for now, so you get what you get. At least until things settle down at work. We typically only work on posts in the early AM hours, and that precious time's been sucked up by his boss's needs. I'm fine taking over for a bit, but I can only do so much and my paws aren't all that great with a keyboard. Okay, bye.

Smudge ... even if your paws did work great on a keyboard, girl-to-girl stuff here: don't ever damage those pearly-pink-pads tryin' to tickle-the-keys. I mean if'n your (dad's) keys are anything like my (mom's) keys OMC spilled coffee, a few cookie crumbs (maybe those cookie crumbs aren't all that bad) ... dust, OMC, the dust makes me sneeze!!! And always, the J keeps gets stuck and requires that I whap it good and hard. Does that happen with your capital S? Sorry, gotta run, maybe I'll nap like you ...

Smudge at least you got a good picture in your post and let us know how hard your dad is working. It's good to know that he's earning money so that he can buy you more toys and Cat food. The important things in life you know.

You are doing a very good job of taking over the reins, Smudge. That is a lovely photo of you.
