Big ol' empty house



Just me and The Shoob. Kelly's off to Vancouver, Washington (which isn't where you think it is) for training. I can't wait to hear how that's going tonight. 

So I mowed the grass. Brought the trash, recycling, and green waste containers back from the curb. Grilled myself some hot dogs, and watched some Science Channel. Amanda (aka The Shoob) is still a little lumpy lump. 



I know she's been there since probably 10:30 this morning. It's 7:00 PM now. Mom didn't believe how long and predictably Amanda goes into diurnal hibernation, but she does now. I have to go wake her up, otherwise she'll be humping my leg all night. Actually, she'll be crawling under my hand looking for a scratching all night.

Done. She was obviously disappointed by the degree to which I was not Kelly as I woke her up, but once she needs a little loving, it's "Kelly who?"

Don't tell Kelly, but Shoob is running around naked. No, I didn't shave her, I just took her Home Again collar off so I can brush her neck and let the fur get all un-matted. I figure that I know that with just me here, I know the doors will stay closed. I'll put it back on once I decide to go outside again.

I rode the snooze button for a while this morning and it thoroughly threw The Shoob's OCD schedule off. See, usually, the alarm goes off, then Kelly gets me up and I shower, Kelly sets the alarm for 15 minutes in the future, and Amanda jumps on the bed for some under throat rub action. So she got really excited and started purring every nine minutes for like an hour.

Being home alone is kind of boring. It always sounds more fun than it actually is. Anyway, Kelly won't be back until after midnight tomorrow night.
