Antics

I am really liking this Summer season. Last year I was a bit too young to understand it all & had no idea Winter was around the corner. But now that I am a year old, I get it. The family says I've learned a heck of a lot in just one year. The daughter says it's because I am interacting with everyone for the most part of the day, which is stimulating my mind, causing me to learn things faster. I shock the pants of them all with new things I've been picking up. I love repeating what they say when they're in a conversation with each other. It makes them stop & look at me. Yeah that's right, I'm here too!

Here I am upto one of my antics, my acrobatic one! Mom says, with all my antics, I'm like a little person in the house. In response Newt says: Well duh! He has his own blog.
Yeah that's right, so don't you forget it. I can write about any of you at anytime. There will be no more skeletons in this family's closet. Of course, they could toss me arse out the door, if I start blabbing too much.

I get mad when they're late from work & haven't taken me out for my usual run around the house. But they make it up to me & before long I've forgotten that I'm supposed to stay upset. In a few weekends, they're going to this huge yearly picnic where they meet all their friends from when they lived in Dubai & rumour has it that they're taking me! Little 'ol me! Yay, I cannot wait. That is going to be one fun filled day. I will keep you posted!

I've been abandoned

So, a few days ago I nicked off one of the keys from Mom's work laptop & took it with me half way across the room. She didn't know where it was & spent quite a while trying to look at it. Of course she blames Dad cause he was using her laptop & I was with him at the time. He must have not been watching me. Newt, however, is more vigilant. He shoos me back up his arm when I get too close to the keyboard. Sometimes I like to sit on his hand as he types. But I did manage to nick a piece off the scroller on the mouse. Why do they call it a mouse anyway?

Well, now Dad's got a laptop of his own & wouldn't you know, he does not let me anywhere near it! How's that for a double standard? says Mom.

I'm special

Ok so here's my thing: I am really really getting used to strangers now. Because Dad takes me out everyday, total strangers come up to us & want to hold me & play with me. So, of course I don't bite anymore. Well, how can I? They're like adoring fans & they make me feel like a star. They even pose with me & take pictures. Really! I kid you not. How can anyone NOT love that? Everyone knows I am all about the attention. Now, if only I could learn how to sing the verse from that Pretenders' song, I'd have a true permanent following.
SING IT:
♫ Cause I'm gonna make you see
There's nobody else here,
No one like me
I'm special, so special.
I gotta have some of your ATTENTION!
Give it to me! ♫
