MK: Momma Kat
Daily conversation - The re-debut:
BC: You're once {licky, licky, lick, lick, lickety lick} ...
BC: Twice {licky, licky, lick, lick, lickety lick} ...
BC: {licky, licky, lick, lick, lickety lick} THREE TIMES ... A TORTIE!!!
BC: And I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE ...
MK: Hey, Bear ...
BC: I didn't do it!
MK: ... this pen ...
BC: I didn't do it!
MK: ... this pen ...
{Pause}
BC: Do you mind?
MK: What?
BC: I need privacy! I'm CLEANING myself here!
MK: Bear, you're cleaning yourself in the middle of the hall!
BC: You don't see me staring at you while you wash yourself!
{Pause}
BC: Err ... I mean ... RATS! I WANT PRIVACY! IS THAT SO HARD TO UNDERSTAND?!?!?!
MK: Then why don't you go somewhere else?
BC: HMPH! FINE! How RUDE!
MK: {remembering what she was going to ask Bear} Oh. BEAR!
BC: I didn't do it!
MK: Stop saying that every time I call your name!
BC: You were going to blame me for something, right?
{Silence}
BC: That's what I thought. I didn't do it.
MK: Where'd this pen come from?
BC: How should I know? It's in your hand!
MK: {sigh} Bear.
BC: I didn't do it.
MK: STOP THAT!
BC: But, I DIDN'T DO IT!
MK: Be ... okay, okay. I was on the phone and grabbed a pen to write down a phone number and then realized the pen in my hand does not belong to me.
BC: Why would you steal someone else's pen?
MK: I DIDN'T!
BC: Then what's the problem?
MK: I don't own this pen!
BC: I don't know. It IS in your hand. Looks like it's yours to me.
MK: But ... I ... you ... GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!! I'm going to get the mail.
MK: {remembering what she was going to ask Bear} Oh. BEAR!
BC: I didn't do it!
MK: Stop saying that every time I call your name!

{Pause as Momma goes outside ... then ...}
BC: Do de do ... la la la ... Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti Do.
BC: Do de do ... la la la ... Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti Do.
BC: He he he he he he he. My desk chair is unoccupied. {Jumping in the chair} OOP!
BC: {licky, licky, lick, lick, lickety lick}.
BC: {licky, licky, lick, lick, lickety lick}.
MK: {walking in the front door} Oh, for crying ...
BC: WHAT?! I have to groom myself meticulously to get myself ready for our re-debut! If you start blogging again, then you're going to take pictures of me again, so I have to be ready. And sexy. And cooooool.
MK: And yet that's NOT the problem.
BC: Phht. Like I'll ever understand YOUR problem!
MK: You're in my desk chair!
BC: You told me not to take a bath in the middle of the hall!
MK: No. I told you not to take a bath in the middle of the hall and expect privacy! Bathing on my desk chair in the middle of the family room doesn't afford you any more privacy.
BC: Is that my problem?
MK: It's about to be.
BC: HEY! PUT ME DOWN! THAT'S MY DESK CHAIR! Hey! You're getting me dirty again!
BC: PUT ME DOWN!!!! HISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!! {CHOMP!!!}
MK: OWWW!
BC: YEAH! That's what you get for messing with ME! Not to mention the dirtifying!
MK: Great. Thanks, Bear.
BC: You're welcome. And you say I don't give you anything!
MK: It's only been two weeks since we blogged, Bear.
BC: A lot can happen in two weeks.
MK: Like what?
BC: Four ... five dozen doughnuts! Not to mention hitting that bottle kind of hard.
MK: WHAT? What bottle?
BC: Those things you pop like candy but won't let me try!
MK: Bear, that's ibuprofen for my headaches.
BC: Just a reminder ... I'm still here.
MK: Hahahahahaha. You said it! Not me!
BC: RATS! I mean I'm STILL HERE, IN YOUR DESK CHAIR. Headaches aren't adorable! Now if you don't mind ... I need my beauty rest.
BC: I mean, I doubt it will fix anything ... but it's worth a try! Hehehehehehehehehe. The re-debut will wait for no man! Err ... cat. Err ... whatever you are!
MK: ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!

MK: {sigh} Talk about one ticked off looking cat! What's all this cleaning about anyway?
BC: In the time we've taken off blogging, we've let ourselves go.
MK: What?
BC: No. No. You're right. You let YOURSELF go. I'm still handsome like always. Handsome AND in the desk chair I might add.
MK: Great. Thanks, Bear.

I think you are looking quite smashing and definitely ready for your blogging return! And yeah those ibuprofen aren't nearly as much fun as cat nip or tuna.
ReplyDeleteThank you! At least someone appreciates me! ~Bear Cat
DeleteBear, if the chair is empty, you can claim it and do whatever you want on it. It's the Cat's Law. :)
ReplyDeleteEXACTLY! I think I need reinforcements around here ... as long as I don't have to share my stuff with them! ~Bear Cat
DeleteSinging to me while you bathe...it's almost too much...I feel faint... --Mudpie
ReplyDeleteNothing but the best for my favorite tortie! ~Bear Cat
DeleteA good chair is important to blogging!
ReplyDeleteErrr .... exactly?!?!? I mean, I tend to nap there while Momma does the blogging ... but ... ~Bear Cat
Deleteseems like you may have a Mexican standoff going on there, or is a nap off? Anyways, its great to see you guys back in the saddle... well, back in the chair. OK it is great to see you, Bear, back in the chair, and I am sure you mom will be pleased too, to be there, if she had the chance! purrs ERin
ReplyDeleteHahahaha. "if she had the chance." Poor Momma. She's no match for my claws and fangs ;) ~Bear Cat
DeleteWe get it! And Hey! We didn't do it either! MOL!
ReplyDeleteWe never do! ~Bear Cat
DeleteYou be lookin' mighty handsum Bear. And we think you have a purrime oppurrtunity to lay claim on da pen befur your mommy figgers out it is hers after all. We can't wait fur da mew debut. Hope you both have a pawsum day.
ReplyDeleteLuv ya'
Dezi and Raena
Thank you, ladies. Good point about the pen ... I'm lying in wait for it to make another appearance! ~Bear Cat
DeleteAnything in YOUR house is YOUR'S including the pen and chair. I know your human has been going through stuff but she shouldn't yell at you. Hmmm, you do realize I'm NOT a tortie, right?
ReplyDeleteShe doesn't ACTUALLY yell at me ... sometimes she gets frustrated ... but she's mean either way!!! ~Bear Cat
DeleteI am glad you are back. That is one lucky tortie to have won your heart. I bet you would share the chair with her :)
ReplyDeleteBear Cat DOES NOT share {sigh} ... except with his favorite tortie. You are right. She'll be the ruin of me yet! ~Bear Cat
DeleteWhy don't we ever get privacy when we are doing purrsonal things?
ReplyDeleteThe Florida Furkids
I know! They act like they own the place!!! ~Bear Cat
DeleteLooks like it's hard for you to find any privacy. You don't need to work so hard on grooming since you're already handsome and you know it. But if you're going to let your mom get back to blogging, she might need that desk chair back! Just saying!
ReplyDeleteHmph. That's what the chairs at the kitchen table are for! ~Bear Cat
DeleteIf the chair's unoccupied, it's yours. If the pen is just sitting there, it's yours. Why do humans have such a difficult time understanding such things, Bear?
ReplyDeleteEXACTLY! If the food is in your mouth ... it's yours! Hmph. But did Momma let me have that chicken breast? NO! VERY simple. Besides, I'm a cat. Everything in my domain is mine unless I don't want it (I'm looking at you Mr. Vacuum!!!). ~Bear Cat
DeleteBear, you are so funny! It looks like you ended up in the chair. Victory!
ReplyDeleteYes. Would you expect any different from me? ;) ~Bear Cat
DeleteYou are looking very handsome, Bear! All of that grooming is really working for you. Manna and Dexter say that you are totally in the right for taking over the chair if you weren't supposed to groom in the middle of the hallway. They would have done exactly the same thing!
ReplyDelete-Purrs from your friends at www.PlayfulKitty.net
I need another cat to assist me ... but only if I don't have to share my stuff with it. ~Bear Cat
DeleteThat deep groom is really getting the fur ready fur the winter. Keep up the good work Bear.
ReplyDeletePurrs you two
Timmy and Family
EXACTLY!! ~Bear Cat
DeleteAll the furniture belongs to you, Bear. Humans think it's theirs, but it's not! You look very handsome after that grooming.
ReplyDeleteThank you! And yes, you are right ;) ~Bear Cat
DeleteYou do good cleaning work, Bear. Merry Maids has nothing on you. 😇
ReplyDeleteI've had lots of practice ;) ~Bear Cat
DeleteWe wonder if Momma ever gets any work done, because we don't think she gets to use that office chair very often!
ReplyDeleteJan, Wag 'n Woof Pets
I can't get any work done because Bear's in my chair! ***BEST EXCUSE EVER***.
DeleteThis is why I moved my desk to a closet and just sit on the couch or at the table now! If Soth takes one spot, I can just move to another chair or cushion ;)
ReplyDeleteBrilliant idea!
DeleteThere is no such thing as privacy in our house as Mom always checks on everyone - probably too many times a day! Making sure even when the dogs are under piles of blankets they're still breathing. Doxies like to bury themselves! So we understand - at least the "chair is private" to a point!
ReplyDeleteTrue! ~Bear Cat
DeleteI've been thinking of adding a cat to the household...will I be having these conversations? Will I lose MY chair? Inquiring minds....
