I only ask 'cause... Well... Well to me, it looks like you're doin' nothin'. NOTHIN'. Nothin' as in absolutely bloomin' nothin'. As in sittin' there like a lazy slob, not doin' a thing. Not doin' a thing when quite honestly, you COULD be doin' somethin' useful like uh...
You know...
Doin' somethin' for me.
MOUSES!
So again I shall ask, WHATCHA DOIN'?
AHA! I was right.
Yup, I was right. I was right all along. You ARE doin' nothin', Peepers. You're doin' nothin' at all. And since you happen to be doin' nothin', why don't I give you somethin' useful to do?
Now let's see...
Peepers, the sewin' machine is still sittin' on the dinin' room table and it, too, is doin' nothin' right now. How 'bout you sew me up a biff bag or two?
WHAT?
What do you MEAN you can't sew when the power is out? What do you MEAN?
Oh.
Really?
MOUSES!
Well how come the power is out, anyway? You forget to pay the electricity bill or somethin' stupid like that?
WELL OF COURSE I HEARD THE BIG BOOMIES.
I mean, I might have been under the bed at the time, but believe-you-me, if boomies are loud enough to send a kitty under a bed, those same boomies are loud enough to still be heard while under said bed, too.
But what do the boomies have to do with your forgettin' to pay the electricity bill, pray tell?
Oh.
They did, huh? Those boomies knocked out the power, you say? Maybe hit a power pole or somethin' like that?
Hmmm...
MOUSES!
Well whatcha gonna do 'bout those boomies then, huh Peepers? WHATCHA GONNA DO?
And FYI, hidin' under a bed doesn't do much of anythin'. I might remind you that I was hidin' under a bed and you're now claimin' those boomies, while I was under said bed, were still able to knock out the power.
Hmmm...
And just to clarify, when I say hide, I don't mean hide as in I was scared, or anythin' like that.
No. No, I mean...
I MEAN I WAS HOLDIN' DOWN THE FORT, PROTECTED EVERYBODY ELSE FROM UNDER SAID BED.
'Cause that's the kinda stuff brave kitties like me do.
MOUSES!
And uh, Peepers?
When might the power be plannin' on comin' back on? Any ideas?
I only ask 'cause I'm in need of the little boys' box, and as I managed to scarf down a bit of cream I found left on Peep #2's unattended plate on the table, earlier, I'm thinkin' you're gonna wanna send a full hazmat team, complete with runnin' water and lots of soap, into the bathroom right after I...
You know...
Use the litter box.
MOUSES!
Why don't you phone up Nova Scotia Power and let 'em know 'bout us needin' the power back on like... LIKE RIGHT NOW.
JUST DON'T GIVE 'EM MY NAME!
You can say YOU'RE the one plannin' on stinkin' up the litter box in 'bout five minutes, if you like.
On the other paw, why don't I make that call. You're likely to get confused or somethin' and blame the stinkies on me. I'M more likely to keep the record straight.
MOUSES!

Our power kicked out earlier today, did you do that Seville?!?!
ReplyDeleteOh dear, oh dear, Seville! No power...that's crazy!
ReplyDeleteHope it returns quickly.
We sure hope you get that power stuff straightened out soon, Sivvers. It sounds like an emergency, given what's in the little boy's box!
ReplyDeleteOooh, that sounds all terribly frightening out there, what with the staff not doing anything and the power not doing anything. A cat could get to think they'd have to not do anything also, just to show support for the peep and the power guys.
ReplyDeleteOn the other paw, if the tin open isnt electric, nows the time for your staff to get adventurous in the kitchen and start testing new food recipes.... cat food recipies, mOL
Purrs

Seville you really have to keep them moving or they take their normal position of Nuthin. Hope the power is back soon so she can get back to making you something of importance
ReplyDeletedood...noe powerz iz knot funnee..but we gotta add mit what ya toll peeperz bout de bath room iz ☺☺☺....we DUE hope de power ree terned; for everee onez sake ;) ♥♥ stay healthee N safe !!
ReplyDeleteI feel your pain. Ours was out for 23 hours Sunday to Monday and a few weeks ago it was out for 3 days.
ReplyDeleteWe haven't had boomies here lately, but we're getting the smokeys. I'd much rather the boomies, 'cause smokeys make me cough, and give me nose runnies and stuffies.
