Sunday & Sis

You could say today was a good Sunday for me, because for the first time in several weeks, Sis has been home the WHOLE day. I didn't get to see her at all yesterday, because she left for work early and came home at 3 thinking she'd get some time with me, but the smart ass she is, she left her keys at home. Mum and Dad weren't home either, so she couldn't get in. So, she decided to leave for some other work, and came home only at 10.30 pm. so When I saw her after 14 hours, I was pretty excited, and I smothered her with love, for about 5 minutes.
 Sis and I have these, "I miss you" sessions when I see her after long hours. I love these sessions with her, because she is the ONLY person who I can lick to eternity without grossing out, or getting pushed away. Our "I miss you" sessions start from the moment I see her, when she calls out to me. We both freeze in our spots, expecting the other person to come close first. I wait for her to call out to me a gazillion times and never budge until she makes the first move.

After calling my name 4-5 times, she usually gives in and takes the first step towards me. I run then to her, she drops her bags, sits on the floor, no matter where we are, puts me on her lap and begins scratching behind my ears while constantly chanting "I missed you!". In response , I lick her to death and nibble on her ears. I guess it tickles her, cause she laughs uncontrollably whenever I do it, but I guess she loves it too, cause she never stops me from doing it. I throw in a kiss or two, here and there and that thrills her the most. So that was the end of Saturday, but Sunday was a different ball game altogether!

Sis woke up at around 12.30 pm, and we all thought she would head out and be busy as usual, but something changed her mind and she stayed home! I got a nice belly rub from her today, we played  "Fetch" a LOT and she took me out in the afternoon for about 15 minutes.
It was fun going out to the back of the house with her today. She clicked a crazy amount of pictures of me (see all the pics here), played "Running and Catching" with me, and waited about while I peed on every plant possible.

We came home, she washed me, gave me a treat and another belly rub. I slept for some time, and after I woke up she played with me some more, then she fed me and took me out to pee again at 7.00pm.

We thought we'd be able to stay out for a long time, but suddenly Sis spotted Choco (our neighbour's cocker spaniel) roaming about without a leash. Just as she was lamenting about how odd it is that Choco be out and it could be dangerous for me, from out of the blue, appeared Shera and Simba (again, our neighbour's giant male labs who don't seem to like me very much- I tell from the way they bark at me every time I pass their house). They surrounded me and started to smell my butt! (Eww. I hate it when dogs do that!). Sis freaked out a bit, and picked me up in her arms not-so-swiftly ( I AM 11.5 kilograms heavy , you know), and stood a deathly still while silently reassuring me that things are gonna be fine and they aren't going to attack me (I love it when she does that!). Of course, me being the giant chicken I am (regularly terrified by large plastic bags, and noisy aluminium vessels), I was scampering about in her arms, totally freaked out, my eyes almost popping out!

Luckily, Shera and Simba got bored of my butt smell, and walked away, and we made it home, alive. All in all, a fun, super Sunday with sis!

Woof!
