Ignored

Today began with another visit from the Snow Monster.

After it left, I slept through as much of the day as I could.

Mom spent a lot of time ignoring me.

She talked on the phone for-e-ver.

I was bored.

Also, I soon came to realize that she was 

making preparations to leave the house.

I watched from the chair under the table as she left me.

When she finally came home,

she continued to ignore me.

I ran around the house as fast as I could,

trying desperately to get her attention.

She continued to be preoccupied with

things I don't care about.

When Daddy came home, they talked about how

cold it was outside.

This just confirmed for me that I was never

going to get outside today.

Mom didn't really take any pictures of me 

until nighttime!

After she looked at the thermometer,

 she took this photo of me:

I mean, how many things are going to get her

attention that AREN'T me?

I moved to the dining room and tried again

to get attention from her.

She gave me a tiny bit.

Then I displayed my

feelings with my tail:

See the force in which I whack my tail

against the back of the chair?

FINALLY!

She held me!

Now I can turn the tables and ignore her!

This is more like it!
