Lonely Day

This morning, while Mom was in the shower,

I got lonely.

Lonely enough to put Mimzy in my food bowl.

It was hot today, so I slept up here:

(no blanket)

Just when I thought I should get my day going...

Mom left me!

(I was already sensitive to loneliness, Mom!)

The sun set and she still wasn't home!

I even took Mimzy out of my food bowl.

Lonely frustration!

When she finally came home,

she had one of the Tuesday People with her.

So I meowed and meowed and pouted on the floor.

(I apologize for blurry photos, but I insisted on hanging out in low light)

I wanted to go on a nighttime walk!

(You owe me, Mom!)

Yes! The trip to the mailbox!

This usually happens before sundown!

After the mailbox, I wanted to wander.

She let me!

I didn't want to go home yet....

(blurry again, Mom!)

She made me go in the house...

muttering something about needing to get the blog done.

I pouted in front of the door.

If you're not going to let me out again...

then take off this harness!

I don't want you to pet me!

I want to go outside some more!

Yes!

So...you work on the blog, Mom,

I'll sit out here:

Of course, I'm still expecting a proper walk!
