Today, I was awakened when my people came into my room reeeally early in the morning. I'm pretty sure it was earlier than they should have been up on a Saturday. It was definitely still dark outside. But I needed to pee, so I got up and the one with the longer hair let me out.

She's my main person. I've had her the longest, anyway. About six and a half years I've had her. She's been pretty good, although she doesn't always do what I want her to. But I think I've got her fairly well trained. When I stand in a certain place, she gets my food for me. And when I stand in another place she opens my door for me. I just wish she wouldn't be so loud sometimes. When I'm cleaning myself, for example. I just want some peace and quiet, and to be left alone to take care of business. But that is not to be, not if she's in the room. She makes loud noises at me. I have no idea what she's saying, but it doesn't sound nice. And then sometimes she actually has the nerve to make me stop scratching or cleaning or whatever it is that I'm doing. How rude! Maybe I should just do that stuff when she's not in the room. But then, that would be letting her be in charge, and that is really not the way things should be.

My other person has shorter hair and a much lower voice than my main person. He hasn't been living here very long. He used to come over a lot, but now I'm pretty sure he's here to stay. I like it when he's here. It might just be the novelty of having a new person around, but boy do I get excited when he comes home. I'm not really sure why I get so excited, though, because he really doesn't pay a lot of attention to me. I think one of the main reasons I like him so much is because he makes my main person so happy. It's nice to see her happy. She's had some rough times since I got her.

I really can't complain about how my people treat me. The only thing I would wish for is maybe something new every once in a while in the food department. About every month and a half there's a very slight change in the flavors, but it's basically the same. What ever happened to creative cooking? Oh well. It's not that bad. I mean, I can stomach it. Oh, but sometimes she puts this yummy oil on the food. It kind of tastes like chocolate - yum! That's a nice treat, since I really shouldn't eat chocolate. I hope she's not trying to trick me with that oil. Hmm... come to think of it, when I eat that I don't itch quite as much. That sneaky lady.

Anyway, so I went outside this morning - you know, to take care of business. Well, sometimes I like to mess with my people, so when she called me a while later, I hid! Lol. I could see her from where I was hiding, but she had no clue where I was. Oh - last week I did this too and then while she wasn't looking, I snuck in the door behind her. I think it kind of freaked her out because she really didn't know where I had come from. You should have seen the look on her face when she saw me standing behind her all of a sudden with a totally innocent look on my face. Priceless.

Well, I better get back to bed. It was an early morning and I do love to sleep. That's usually what I do for most of the day. It's been nice being able to get some of my thoughts and feelings out here. Thanks for reading. Maybe, if there is any interest, I can write some more later.

Oh, by the way, my name is Daisy.

This is me:
