See those little nibbles around the edge? That’s ALL I DID!!! No biggie…

OH, BOY AM I IN HOT WATER!!!

Mama was on the other computer, blithely clicking away at her article for The American Magazine, letting her creative thoughts run rampant, and this, just after having gotten out two little STEAKS for dinner since papa has not had meat at all during the vegetarian visit from kids and grandkids.

Gotten out steaks?

Hmmmm…

So she finishes her article and casually goes into the kitchen to start dinner and what does mama find on the FLOOR?

Well, it’s her fault that she weighed me this morning and I was 300 grams overweight and she cut my rations by 20 grams, starting today, and one simply cannot switch that quickly from 100 grams to 80 grams of dinner, and when I saw that steak up ON THE COUNTER WHERE I NEVER, NEVER IN A MILLION YEARS GO, well, something just took over.

I was innocently reclining in papa’s outdoor chair when mama came out with that steak (slightly gnawed upon) in her hand and put it in front of my nose and said, “LOULOU, no, no and you now what “no, no” means, you sneaky little kitty.”

Well, I looked at her for about a minute and she looked at me and we looked at one another and I just got up from my perch and sauntered off into the garden and wouldn’t let her cuddle me (I almost wrote “meat” for “me”–hmm, Freudian steak, I mean, slip) and I showed her who’s who around here.

But I am feeling a bit chagrined and ashamed of my well-behaved self and mama knows that so she stopped after the first two “no, no”s because I learn fast.

Now she’s looking out into the garden to see if I’m looking at her and I am and we’re about to make up.

MAMA, JUSTDON’T LEAVE A STEAK OUT LIKE THAT—YOU SHOULD KNOW BETTER WHEN I’M ON A DIET!
