You were very nearly devoured by a giant demon snake. The words 'let that be a lesson' are a tad redundant at this juncture.

I vote ruthlessly efficient!

I also vote "I worked crazy hard last week and fuck all this noise, I'm stopping work at 3PM". For today at least. Unless I get urgent emails. Or a call.

Our wings are not tired.

Suzi did you have Jack meet the techs and spend some time with them in the house? If Cayenne doesn't actually meet the people (and be given treats by them if they're willing) she can't just be moved outside and expected not to bark. Once the dogs meet the interlopers and understand that I want the interlopers to be onsite, it really helps.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

That would have been my way to handle the situation. K-Bug had other ideas that didn't play out well. She gets freaked when he acts like that. We talked after they left today and hopefully next time will go better. Tomorrow he goes to doggie day care since they will be doing the patio door.

Separately he now knows how to "shake" hands.

Now I have to decide which new pair of shoes to wear with what outfit tomorrow. [link]

Which would likely mean I'm late except my car has to be moved off the street before 8 for mysterious sewer work.

My glam life.

This is an excellent problem to have! Yay new shoes.

It's pretty rare that a thunderstorm wakes me up, but I'm guessing it was what caused the cats to flee the bed dramatically & wake me abruptly.
