Oh joy! Oh rapture! Oh bliss! Daddy's home!! He came home about ten days ago. He tells us that Mom will come back soon but he doesn't know when. I spend most of my day sitting in Daddy's lap and both of us purr. Gordo still sulks a bit because he really misses Mom. But Daddy is good to us and even lets Gordo sleep in Mom's chair.

Mom called a few days ago and Gordo must have figured out that she was on the other end of the phone. Daddy answered the phone upstairs and Gordo sat at the foot of the stairs and howled the entire time. What a wimp!! I really think Gordo, at age 9, is too old to cry like that.

Daddy says that Mom really misses us too. She visited two black cats a few days ago but they weren't very friendly to her. And she says that Lucy Cat pays her almost daily visits. Mom sent us a picture of Lucy and she is gorgeous. I think I would like her if I met her. I dream about a hot and heavy romance. I am including a picture of Lucy here--SMACK!!

Daddy's routine is to go out with his nephew every day. Gordo and I noticed that this week he has been home more. Then I heard him explaining to Mom that there has been a gas crisis in Cancun. Apparently, Hurricane Rita damaged many of Pemex's offshore rigs. No gas was available so they could not go anywhere. Well, bully for Pemex!!! Daddy was home with us!

There is a little dog next door to us named Lola. Daddy insists on calling her "Hola, Lola!" Her mom went to Canada a few days after Mom and Daddy went to Virginia. The poor little dog cried and barked for days. Well Lola's mom is home now and Lola is a much more pleasant neighbor. Daddy still speaks to her every time she barks (Mom disapproves of this, but without Mom...) and Lola stops barking immediately.

These are my thoughts for this week. I hope Mom will be home before I have to gear up the computer and write the next blog. It is really hard for me to type after I've set up the computer. I NEED MY MOM!!!

PS: I talked to Mom and she cannot figure out how to help me load a picture of Lucy. So here's the link: http://flickr.com/photos/muwzik/47983353/
