Charlie and Me (Part 2)

Repost from 4/28/09

Storms for me are like taking 3 Ambiens at once. It's the perfect cure for an insomniac for me. Last night's storm was no exception! I slept like a freakin' log!

Well the problem with sleeping so well, is being so rested and so sleepy and not wanting to get up when the alarm goes off! Well my normal time to get up is 4:45 am every morning. Charlie and Rosie have grown accustomed to the 4:45 wake up call and every morning they immediately wait at the front door for me to get dress and to take them outside to relieve themselves.

This morning, I just didn't want to get up! I was all nice and warm and groggy. Yesterday at work the A/C had broke and the shut on/off valve component or something or other has broken and so the A/C blows at full force and it can't and won't shut off! Apparently the needed part is on order and will take about 3 days to be received. So the artic winds blow right on top of me because my office is tiny and has a low ceiling and the vent is directly above my head! So anyways, back to this morning. I just haven't been feeling well, been dealing with a stomach bug of some sort and the A/C situation at work is not helping the situation. So anyhoo... I didn't want to get up so I overslept for about 20 minutes!

I finally woke up to Osiris purring in my ear. This in unusual because ever since I got Charlie, he doesn't sleep in the bed anymore... it's for his own safety! Also, I'm used to waking up to Charlie licking my face, not Osiris purring in my ear! I get out of bed, turn the lamp on, get my clothes on and then I see this:




Who is the culprit? Do you really have to ask? But just in case you don't know! Here he is:



Don't let his innocent face fool you! In this other picture, he's licking his lips, he's planning on more distruction! See for yourself!

So yeah, he's a little monster! The little rascal!
