Hey guys!
I am currently typing from my aunt's house because I am house-sitting! Now, when you first hear this you may be thinking that it's like, sooo easy right? WRONG. Omg, that's so wrong when there is a dog and a cat involved. Holy crap, dogs are hard work mannnn. I know that everyone says that but I seriously am just realizing it now. I mean, you have to watch them or be with them like 24/7. And they don't always act cute and stuff sometimes they're just annoying...or scary if you get the riled up and stuff, which is what I managed to do this morning. Perhaps I should just recap my house-sitting experience so far:
Soooo, yesterday I got here at about noon, which was half an hour late because I got like ridiculously lost in the neighbourhood, kinda embarassing I won't lie. When I finally got here I just asked my aunt a couple of questions and then she was gone! And I had the house and the dog and the cat to myself. The dog was all cute stuff yesterday, playful and smiley, you know that thing that dogs do that makes it look like they're smiling? Yea, he was doing that. Anywho, the dogwalker came in the afternoon and took the dog for his like 2 and a half hour walk (I walk him an hour and a half in the morning) so that was nice that I got a break from playing with the dog because seriously I can only throw that slobbery ball so many times. Seriously. Then my brother showed up with a couple of friends and we made ministrone soup! It was fun and super delicious :D Yea I know, I made something edible without an adult around (my brother and his friends don't count because they kept breaking out into debates about the stereotypical length of men's penis' in each country...I know, it was weird). Pretty exciting. Then after dinner I remembered, 'Omg! I have to take the dog out for a short walk so he can pee before bedtime!' So my brother and his friend decide to come with and we do our little walk and then...I realize about halfway up the steps to the door that I've left the key inside and it locks automatically. Yep, I locked us out at 9 o'clock at night. Fantastic right? It was funny for the first five seconds when I thought my cousin (who was home for the night) was still awake but when politely ringing the doorbell and tapping on the door quickly became frantic ringing and pounding I thought all hope was lost. I pictured myself sitting on the doorstep until five in the morning when I knew he would be leaving for work again (my brother and his firend had bikes so they were fine to bike home), shivering in the morning air. But as a last ditch attempt I got down on my knees and prayed...HA! Just kidding...couldn't resist :P ahem, I got down on my knees and opened the mail slot and yelled into the house, something along the lines of, "Helloooo??!!!I'm locked out!!!Hellooooo??!!!" Lo and behold! Through the window in the door I saw feet the legs then my cousin appear on the stairs. He was looking around confusedly, clearly having just woken up. He was looked into the living room first before realizing that I was at the door. Omg, I have never been so glad to see my cousin before. Whew! I apologized profusely, all the while laughing hysterically probably out of relief, I'm not really sure. All in all it was a great night, terrific and traumatizing. I now keep the front door key in my pant pocket at all times, I never take it out :P I've learned my lesson. I think the funniest part was seeing my cousin's look of confusion as he came down the stairs, looking for the disembodied voice calling out to him.
Right, so that was last night. So this morning I also had a bit of an adventure, hmm more of a very slight adventure, walking the dog for an hour and a half. As I mentioned earlier I riled him up a bit before we left. I didn't realize that the idea of going for a walk would have him trembling with excitement followed by loud barking and jumping on me. You have to understand that this dog is an abnormally large black lab and I'm just average height. In fact if he were to stand on his hind legs he could totally take me down. So, being fed up with having the dog bark in my face while I tried to get my shoes on, I put him outside in the back so I could finish getting ready. Apparently I have the memory of a fart because I must have turned the alarm on and off 5 times before I made it out the door. I then was uncerimoniously dragged to the ravine by the dog, let me remind you of his size. He literally just tugged me all the way to the ravine he was so excited! And then I actually had a lot of fun with him because he found a tennis ball, and let me tell you this dog LIVES for tennis balls, and he would drop it front of me and wait for me to kick it and then go screaming after it only to drop it in front of me once more. I've never had a dog so it was kinda cool :D Speaking of the dog he just got back from his afternoon walk and is slobbering all over me with his toys, hooray! :P K so that means I'm gonna go play with the doggy otherwise he won't leave me alone! Hahaha, tata for now!
OH wait! my superpower....hmmm....I think I'd go for invisibility? Flying? Spidey fingers so i could climb up walls? Reading minds...ehh probs not. Best options for me are flying and invisibility...its so powerful!! :D
