wow. i'm finally starting to feel like myself again after a couple of days.
here's what happened:
female human shows up at the old peoples' house. weird because the old guy had been feeding me nice stuff all day and playing as much ball as he could. she ate something then started carrying my stuff out of the house. finally she came back and said, "ok, daisy, let's go."
let's go where?
of course, i'm noisy and i can't resist and before i know it, we're in the the car, it's dark and we're driving on a highway. then we stop and i hear some mean lady talking. she doesn't even ask about me so i start panting really loud. finally she says "what's that noise?" and i put my paws on the seat. my human turned the lights on so she could see me and she rudely says, "wow she's big!"
well, i saw HER. she looked like she was a full figured gal too so she didn't have to be like that.
anyway, we said our goodbyes. then my human says, "whew! we made it through the border without her asking for your papers." what the hell does that mean? am i not important enough for them to look at my papers, whatever that means? sheesh.
anyway, in no time, we stopped again. the human was on the phone saying, "come on down, we're here." and before i knew it, i saw my other human! but i did not recognize the place we were at. for one thing, i am not used to such a low rent district. they kept saying "buff a low" which I have no idea if that was a person or something to eat.
where we were reminded me of the apartment we lived in when i was a puppy, but not nearly as nice. this place was stinky and i don't mean the curry smells from the apartment. i like curry a lot but it doesn't like me so if it smelled like curry i'd be happy. unfortunately it smelled like stinky cigars and stinky men. yuck.
the apartment was very, very small. i am not used to living in a studio! there wasn't even a kitchen, but my people planned ahead and had snacks and water in my yellow cooler. it was also very hot. the female human decided to open the window. thank god! but we also slept on some sort of weird couch bed. it sucked. but less so than the real bed where the snoring male human slept. poor man, it was like a board.
i slept terribly. but unbeknownst to me, i would make up for it all day.
they woke me up at an ungodly hour. 5 am. who i ask you wakes up then? chickens. that's all. oh and old people. the old dude sometimes got up that early, but not always.
at 5 am the male human gave me some peanut butter, then i started to feel very sleepy. i fought it for as long as i could but they guided me into the car and the female human had put down all sorts of blankets and pillows. it was like they planned for me to be exhausted. i have never felt like that before...at least that i remember.
the next thing i knew they were trying to wake me up to go to the bathroom. like that was the last thing on my mind. all i wanted to do is nap. but there was a puppy out there so i had to muster up some balance and set a good example for the youngster. he was sort of cute, but i'm no cougar.
we got back in the car and then stopped again at a place with very shiny floors. i hate shiny. but this place was much more like what i am accustomed to. there were people fawning all over me and petting me. there were presents that i didn't like but it's the thought that counts. and my humans ate steak with me. now that's what i call living.
the bed was also very comfortable. i like 100% down comforters even though feathers make me sneeze. the bed was so comfortable that i slept all night long, like i had never slept before. they even had a special park when it was time for me to go outside. it was fantastic and i was very happy there.
unfortunately, at 5 am, they roused me. stupid humans. once again, i fell for the peanut butter. it is a weakness i'll admit. my name is daisy and i am a peanut butter addict. i tried to fight the sleepy feeling, but i couldn't help myself.
before i knew it, my people were making me get out of the car again. but this time i was in a driveway. they kept saying, "this is your new house, daisy." like i haven't heard that before. what's this like the 6th place i've lived in 10 years?
well, i gotta say, wherever we are this place is the best. it's also the biggest. i still haven't explored but i am waiting for them to go to work so i can really check it out. apparently some sort of holiday is happening because the indoor tree is in the house. i learned long ago that it's not for peeing on. anyway, i am planning a thorough mission once i rest up.
this is what i know so far about this place: the couch is more comfortable than our old one, but the old one is still here. i have a new friend named buzz, he's one of those spazzy labs, but it's ok. i need a workout buddy to get my rubenesque figure back so i'll just deal with him. the humans are taking me for more walks. we went to a mall today and the people in the stores let me in. that would have never happened in my old neighborhood. and now, the male human is making some sort of delicious food. i am pretending not to be interested, but i really am.
the humans keep saying the words "Tex Ass". i'm not sure what that means but they better not be talking about mine. I can't help that the old people didn't take me for walks. i feel like i've already lost weight being here with all of the ball playing. but i'm not complaining.
