Things That Go Bump in the Night
So, I heard a loud bump last night. A concerningly loud bump. Then Pokey comes flying up the stairs.
Right about now, I'm wishing all of my firearms weren't at the Chevy dealership (don' task).
I go downstairs and look around. Nothing broken. I lock all the doors. Turn off some lights. Nothing really obvious wrong. So I'm like..."stupid cat...settle down....I'm trying to sleep."
And I go back to sleep.
Then it happens again. A loud dull noise. Hard to ignore. If Pokey made it, it sounds like he may not have survived the fall. So I go down with a flashlight, check around. I can't find the silly cat anywhere in the house. So, I go back upstairs and look under the bed. And there's Pokey. Frozen.
I'm like...."Would you please settle down so I can sleep. I've got to get up and go to work in the morning." Ok. So, that's a lie, but it's a cat so, does that even count?
And then this morning I'm looking out the front picture windows on the house and I'm like..."aha....so that's what caused the noise last night...."
