(*cue music*)
I'm a travelin' man
And I've made a lot of stops all over the world
And in every port I own the heart
Of at least one lovely girl...

Oh yeah, Sunday evening I went on a little walkabout. First, I headed down the alley, checked out some sweet spots, said hello to the little gal down the street. Then I carefully strolled past Barky in his prison yard, making him set off with quite the ruckus. The next house has a garage with a hole cut in it for cats to go in and out…that’s where I usually find a few rat carcasses lying about. Smelly little tavern, that.

I snuck through Landscape Jack’s and crossed the street. Over to Georgie’s Fuchsia Farm to see if there was anything good in the shed. Nada.

I heard the Human calling, so I started making my way back home. But then I saw something out of the corner of my eye in somebody’s garage. I went in to check it out and :o the door closed. Spit. So I found a pile of tarps in the corner and bedded down for the night. Good thing I ate before I left home, but there was no litter box in there so oops.

Next morning I could hear the Human calling me again. Shaddup, already, I’m trying to sleep! Can’t do nothing about it. I got a little hungry, and it was dark in that garage, damp too because it was drizzling rain. Spent the whole day in there without even a deck of cards to play Solitaire.

Good thing it was finally Monday night, people all down the alley pulled their garbage and recycling out to be picked up in the morning. These folks finally got on it and opened that garage door and I took my opportunity! I waltzed in through the cat door and the Human was all over me…"Oh, where have you been?!" Snot and eye dribble coming off her face; disgusting. Got some treats and out I went again. Still, it’s good to be home and good to be free and good to bite the hand that feeds you.
