I forgot my cellphone at home today and had to spend the day without any internets! I think I'm in withdrawal.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
The alien abduction/sexual slavery/polka bit was removed in an edit today. Pity.
Now I don't know what to believe....

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
My cat will turn up his nose at tuna, turkey, and many other items cats are supposed to love.
He does, however, like salad. I have to give him his own little pile of lettuce so I can make my own salad in peace.
Once, I bought a live catnip plant for him. I placed it next to a flat of arugula seedlings.
Guess which item of greenery was still untouched a few hours later and which had been devoured down to the soil line.

So, I'm taking bets.
How long do we think it will take the boy to notice that I'd like some help cleaning up after dinner by not joining him for television-watching?
I'm betting forever.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Ask. Don't wait for him to notice.

Too subtle, vw.

Eh. Not worth it. We're officially not dating after Saturday. I don't think he gives a shit.

... to add to the above, there's nothing wrong with working a hint into the asking: "Help me clear this up quick, and then we can go watch TV together" will get you a lot further than just waiting for him to deduce that the fact that you're not in the TV room is supposed to carry meaning.
edit again, because I just saw your other message. I'm sorry.

Oh, don't be sorry. It was a mutual decision, and actually we decided it about a month ago. We're having a planned breakup. Apparently they're all the rage. Or something. It just seems to make sense for us. We're just not on the same paths, and it's good to notice that and move on at some point, even if there aren't hard feelings, etc.
