Lucy here again! Spring is upon us and the couch potatoeing days are almost over. It wont be long until pool season starts up again. But for now, its still the couch for me. Ive been pretty bored lately. William and Diane have been adding some additional comfort to the big house. A wood burning stove. And would you believe it? They must really love me a lot. They put that stove in my room. In a few days, I will be able to stretch out on my comfy sofa in front of a crackling fire. Why bored, you ask? Well, having them in the way, making all of that noise when I am trying to snooze can really be frustrating. My routine has been interrupted and those quiet naps on wintry afternoons have disappeared for a while. Whats a girl to do with all of that noisy time on their hands? 

Well, Ill tell you what I did one night. Only you girls with full blown PMS will appreciate this one! I had a late night chocolate attack! Yes a gotta have it now kind of attack. I was already grumpy from being tired. Everyone went off to bed early except me. I just wanted to unwind and squish down in to those pillows. But no! I couldnt find that just right spot on the couch. So I started pacing. Pretty soon, that got boring and I decided to take a little stroll in to the kitchen for a snack. 

And there it was! Dianes briefcase with that sinful bag of chocolate, right there in the kitchen. She wouldnt miss one or two. I took a whiff of that delightful aroma and I was a gonner! One or two quickly turned in to ten or twelve. Soon the wrappers werent coming off very well, as I tried to sneak a few more candies without waking up the household. I kept getting little bits of foil stuck between my teeth. 

After several minutes of blissful chocolateness, I realized the deed had been done. They were gone! Every last one of them. Without even picking up my wrapper mess, I made my way back to the couch. A few burps and squirms and I was out like a light! 

Boy was I going to be sorry in the morning! 

Oh well, William and Diane love me! They wont get too mad, I am glad dog dentists havent caught on very well around here! Whats that, youve gotta go? Yeah, me too! Gotta get ready for that first wood fire snooze. Later!
