A lovely photo of me sitting upon my throne, protecting my kingdom
Hello, Winstonites! I must apologize for my absence. I have been spending a lot of time with Howard and Pet #1. We’re like the three musketeers lately, although I am sad to announce that Pet #1’s “vacation” from work is coming to an end tomorrow. Our time spent together was something I will cherish for the rest of my life. The tripod lives on forever! Moving along, I would like to tell you a story about the mysterious door knocker. Pet #1, Howard, and I were snuggled up on the couch watching Gossip Girl, per usual, when someone surprised us at the door. Now, I must tell you that Pet #1 is incredibly scared of answering the door. She’s even afraid of answering phone calls from unknown numbers. I’m not sure why, but she gets very uppity at the thought of just a door in between her and a stranger. Anywho, the mysterious knocker knocked in two sets. And I’m not talking about the I’m-selling-magazines-because-I-need-money-for-summer-camp knockers. These knocks were percussive and angry; like said knocker was on a mission. My ears immediately perked up and I sprung to my feet while ferociously barking (more like chirping because I’m a tiny chihuahua and my bark isn’t very scary). Pet #1 attempted to hush my snarls and growls, but I wasn’t having it. This is my kingdom and I must protect it from mysterious knockers and such. The second set of knocks came about 13 seconds after the first, and I assure you they were even more fearsome than the first set. I continued howling, in hopes that I might scare off the mysterious knocker, however he lingered downstairs. We all huddled on the couch, listening carefully to see if we could recognize any of the voices. Finally, Pet #1 grew a pair and looked out the peep-hole, but it was too late. The mysterious knocker & friends had disappeared into the dark night, never to return again! And of course I had to bark at every little peep for the rest of the evening, just in case they decided to come back. I’m telling you, it was traumatic for all parties involved, but it is my duty to protect my pets from any harm.
