Humpf!!

Just another day in this crazy household. Here I am trying to get some sleep, contemplating the unfairness of recent events, practicing my air of disdain for when hanging around Mum and the Bloke and, as always, working on my muse for this blog.

Suddenly, out of nowhere this little plastic Fireman suddenly came arcing through the air, landing right beside me on the bed. This is not a normal occurrence and so I have to admit that it did take me by surprise.

Not that I let it show, I always maintain poise, and calm at all times. It pays to never let anyone else see you caught off guard. That's Dessie's Tip for Today, my Darlings.

But, back to the sudden appearance of the water fairy. It was immediately followed up with the arrive of the impetuous youth which is personified by the Demon Kitten.

When he is going to grow up and accept the mantle of feline aloofness and Independence?

What then developed was a bit of a Mexican Standoff. He wanted it back, I was not going to let the little imp away with interrupting my sleep, I mean, deep, thoughtful contemplation.

He did try to out stare me, but seriously, do you think that I would crumble under such an amateur attempt as his? Of course not!

So I decided to have a little fun with the the little pain. I grabbed the miniature representation of the community servant and dared him to have a go if he thought he had enough sand in his pockets!

The battle of wills commenced. He tried the old opening gambit of slowly trying to creep forwards. Oh Pleasseee! As if I was not already planning for this and was in fact three moves ahead of him.

So he regrouped and tried to affect an air of indifference, trying to see if he could make me lower my guard, enough for a sneak attack. As if!!

But, Dear Readers, let it not be said that I do not have any interest in our future. It is very important that the youth of today is given some feeling of self worth, even if they are nothing but over energetic bundles of uncoordinated energy. He made a grab for the plastic Trumpton, and I decided with split second timing to let him take it. Of course, any outside observers, not being privy to my charitable actions, may have wrongly reached the conclusion that I was too slow to maintain my control over the toy. Ha!! That could not be further from the truth!

Look at the little Scamp, well chuffed he is at his apparent "victory". I dont think so!!

One day he will think about this moment and see it for what it really was, once again, me asserting my power over him to bend his will, to meet my ends. It really is too easy.

But this is enough for today, I will see how my schedule is for whether or not I will be willing to further share my thoughts with you all. Until then, all ways remember to respect the cat.

Ciao,
