SUMMARY: In which Boost saves the day.
Boost: Whine. Pause. Whine. Pause. Whine. Pause. Whine. Pause. Whine. Pause.
Me, on computer: Stop it! [goes back to work]
Boost: Whine. Pause. Whine. Pause. Whine. Pause. Whine. Pause. Whine. Pause.
Me: Cut it out, I can't think! [continues typing]
Boost: Whine. Pause. Whine. Pause. Whine. Pause. Whine. Whine. WHINE.
Me: THERE IS NO NEED FOR WHINING, CUT IT OUT! [tears hair, tries to focus on technical document.]
Boost. WHINE. Whine. WHINE WHINE Whine. Whine.
[Repeat for about 30 minutes.]
Me [finally standing up to go look]: Why are you standing next to the garage door whining?
Boost: [Puts ears back, wags tail, looks at the garage door.]
Me: [Notices Tika isn't anywhere in sight. Which she should be, normally. Especially when Me stands up from working at desk.]
Me: [Remembers that half an hour ago Me opened the garage door long enough to lean in, grab a can of Coke, and close the door again immediately so the dogs don't go into the garage.]
Me: [Opens door.]
Tika: [Comes into house] Thanks, human mom. You must play with me now.
Boost: [Kissy kissy on Tika who ignores her]
Ah, unrequited love.
Wow! I'm so glad Boost got Tika out of the well!
ReplyDeleteBut, how come *Tika* wasn't whining at the door, scratching, barking, ...?
Awwwwww....Boost saves the day!
ReplyDeleteSteph: Because as usual Boost was doing all the work for her.
ReplyDeleteAw, that's so sweet! Sounds like Boostie really loves her sis. If Lucy knew Walter were trapped in a garage I think she'd have quite the devilish smile on her face.
ReplyDeleteYeah, but Tika's a fair-weather friend. If she thinks boost's in her way, she'll tell her so, and hardly ever greets her when they've been separated. Poor Boostie! So faithful.
