Anabelle's Diary

Krispy Fiend!!!!

My dad says I'm a Rice Krispy Treat Fiend. It all started a few months ago when my mom and dad left me at home while they went out for errands. Well, I was pretty upset about being ditched....at first. I was nosing around the kitchen and my silly daddy had left his lunchbox on the floor and behold the most magnificent creation I have ever laid my puggy paws on: O Wonderous Rice Krispy Treat.
It was HUGE! I think it was called King Size. Well I promptly got the wrapper off and ate the whole thing. When mommy and daddy came home they couldn't believe I ate the whole thing becuase they were only gone 20 minutes!
Well the ritual is to make Krispy's on Sunday night, but as much as I whine and bark I am not allowed to eat them anymore (well maybe mommy gives me a teeny piece of Krispy when no one is looking). I do everything I can think of....I sit and stare at them and try to use my mind powers to hand over the goods, I dance around, I bark, I jump and I even pretend I'm not interested (but only for a second or two). My parents are pretty sure that cereal and marshmallows probably aren't that good for me, but I think they don't know what they're talking about!
They will surely rue the day that I figure out how to get on to the kitchen counters!

A New Toy!

I thought today was going to be like any other boring day....sleeping all day and jumping all over the place all night. Well, when Mommy came home from work, I was excited as usual and hopped all over so she would know I was happy. Then the most amazing thing happened. She opened up that gigantic bag she carries on her shoulder and pulled from the depths a NEW TOY!!! Man, it was cool. It's orange and has all these tentacles and one giant eyeball! There are lots of good places for me to get a grip on it for a nice game of tug 'o war. Well, I immediately started chewing on it and I was so happy. I love getting presents!

I tricked my Mommy today!

I tricked my mommy today and it was funny! She brought home a new pink umbrella (grrr...the enemy). She opened it up to let the awful thing dry out, so of course I had to attack it! Well, mommy didn't want me to ruin her nice, new umbrella so she said "Anabelle, NO!" very loudly. I knew she wasn't actually mad at me, but she didn't know I knew that. I pretended that my feelings were really hurt. I tucked my tail between my legs and gave her the saddest look I could muster. She must have felt bad for yelling at me, because she sat on the floor and very nicely told me "come here little puppy. I'm not mad." So, I verrrrrryyyy slooooooowly inched closer and closer to her with my head down and my tail between my legs, like I was in big trouble. It required A LOT of restraint not go bounding over. This is the good part. I waited until I was only a foot away and then I LEAPT as high as I could and jumped right into her lap and started licking her face like crazy. It was hilarious! Mommy started cracking up and petting me. Man, I like to make my parents laugh!
