Wednesday Wakey Uppy: The Sphinx

Basically what the staff saw this morning. Photo source: Guardians.net

It amazes me that, after all this time, the staff still requires a wake up call. Does she have some sort of sleeping disease that keeps her slumbering past our 5:45 a.m. BREAKFAST each day? I hope it’s not serious.

Serious or not, it’s up to me to ensure Pug and I don’t starve to death.

This morning, I used one of my favorite tactics….THE SPHINX.

Staff on back. I hopped onto her thighs and made my way up her body, taking great care to step on her stomach. Then, I sat down, groomed for a second, and lay my badself down on her chest, like the Sphinx of Giza, and made myself just as heavy as a statue.

I sat there like that, staring. Going up and down with her breathing. Up. Down. Up. Down. And, of course, I turned my motor on full volume. Up. Down. PURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR. Am statue. Up. Down. PURRRRRRRRRRR. Am statue.

She can’t resist this move. She opened her eyes, laughed and Bam! Good morning, BREAKFAST!

Maxwell: Dude! Excellent technique! *taking notes* (I find it also helps if her bladder is full)
