Things you don't need really to know...
So, the little old man who lives downstairs from us pees in the backyard. At first I thought I was just hearing things. But then I saw him whip it out one day. Jana thinks that he may know something about gardening that I don't, but I'm not too sure about that. I don't even know what else to say.
And then today, as I was trying to take a much needed nap (you know, the vacation thing is hard work), he was clipping his nails on the back porch. So I was trying to fall asleep to the incessant *click* *click* *clicking* of fingernail clippings.
Before the nap, I went to visit my furry friend Ein (who I am watching while said Jana is away on vacation), and it was there I remembered why kitties drive me crazy (even though I love him). Here's the scenario:
1. Bridget enters house.
2. Cat yells at Bridget.
3. Bridget feeds cat.
4. Cat pokes nose in bowl.
5. Cat yells at Bridget.
6. Bridget picks cat up for a snuggle.
7. Cat purrs for a minute, then claws his way down.
8. Cat yells at Bridget.
9. Bridget picks up cat.
10. Cat purrs for a minute, then claws his way down.
11. Cat yells at Bridget.
And so on.
It kept on like that for about 15 minutes, until I finally just let him be cranky.
No wonder I needed a nap....
