Last night, living large after putting in a full shift, I decided to watch episodes 8 and 9 of, The Pacific. For some reason (useless playoff hockey), I'd fallen behind and needed to catch up. This means that I stayed up until 2 AM with the thought that I'd sleep in until at least 9.
Leo had other plans.
He awakens me each morning by walking all around me on the bed. The tempur-pedic foils his effort at bouncing, but he awakens me none the less--usually when he finds a kidney with his paw and steps on it. He wanted to go out, and he wanted to eat. After beginning his whining and yippy-yodeling (he sings), I threw off the blankets and took him to the door where we could both see that it's pouring rain this morning. He tried to dig in his feet, but I shoved him out anyways.
The sloth peed on the deck. Under the overhang. God forbid he should get wet.
He came in, snarfed up his kibble and I tried to go back to sleep. This is the point where he really started yipping and yapping at me. He wanted me up. So I made coffee, turned on the TV, and the brat went and crawled into his crate to sleep.
What the hell?
He's all cozy in there and I'm awake.

EB, I adore my tempur-pedic. So does my back!
Don't you just love animals. I succumbed and let a dog in the house. He was banging on the door at midnight, he goes back to sleep within minutes and I eventually sleep at 4. Never having another one!
Hehhe...silly Leo. At least he went in his cage after he was all wet.
I guess if you're up and the coffee's brewing, all is well in Leo's world. He can snooze in security.
Some nights are just like that. Dogs have their own plans--and they don't have schedules to keep. Hope you managed to get some zzzz Rudee.
Well we know who is the boss in the Rudee house. Gotta love a doggie.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Leo's good for you, Ruth!!! I can't wait to meet him in July!! Your Nica friend!
Dogs gotta do what a dogs got to do - don't you just love em?
Life would be so boring without them.
He sounds like a great dog! Seriously.
You and Leo are made for each other. He's a smart doggy...ciao
i love the "what the hell?" and the look on his face - hee, he has you number Rudee - just wanted the company of Momma and he got it.
Boy he is a cutie.
You have my sympathies!
A tempur-pedic owner...is it really as great as they say?
Animals relish the power they have over humans. I just know they have a ceremony, like the Golden Globes, where someone gets a trophy but being the best human manipulator.
