Home Almost Alone
Hey – Jasmine here again. So, I guess i’m getting to be a real “Blog-ster”, or I would rather say “Bow-wow-ster”. Today, you are really going to see a side of me that is not previously known to all you humans out there, as well as my 4 legged buddies. Here goes – I miss my human mommy. Yap, that’s it, I have said it. I really do miss my human mommy.
She has been gone now for three whole days, and you just can’t believe what it is like. Yea, I know, she is with that human kid of hers having a nice weekend thing, but – what about me. It isn’t that I think the world revolves around me in this house, but, well, it sorta does.
I am not totally alone, my human dad is here, however, a lot of the time, he is way too intense working on something. Can you believe, he forgot to feed me one day? We did take a really great walk, and I only chased after one squirrel, and there were a lot more to be chased, but I held it together. He did give me lots of treats, including some cheese which is my all time favorite. But meal time completely flew over his head.
We were both in the kitchen, and I looked at him, then at my food dish, then him again, and finally gave it a couple friendly grrrreminders, but nothing. It was like he was on a different planet. After a few minutes, we both went out to the sun room to watch the end of a baseball game while HE ate dinner. Oh, yea, he did offer me some popcorn earlier during the baseball game. I just looked at it, and then at him. “Bow-wow-wow”, I said. In human words that means, “get a grip, I am not suppose to have corn”.
After yet another baseball game, I am getting really tired, it’s about 11:00PM. So, I go crawl into my crate, and think of how nice it is when my human mom comes over and scratches me on the tummy and tucks me in. So, human dad is sitting over there, the game is over, we know who won, but he has to see the post game show. ”Grrrrrr”, I mutter just loud enough to get my point across. His light bulb finally goes on, and of goes the TV, and he finally comes over. “Well”, he says, “I guess I need to tuck you in”. What a stroke of genius, as he scratches my ears, and clicks shut my crate. ”G’nite”, he says and off he goes.
Ya know, I have these humans figured out. They are both really great – for humans. But they have their own particular things they are good at. Human dad is great for walks, playtime, and a lot of other things, but human mom, is the one I can really whine to, get some treats from, and lots of loving that only a mommy can give. It is great being in such a wonderful family, especially after having been dumped on the street when I was born. But, I still can’t wait until my human mom is back home. Then I will really be Waggin’ Delightfully.
