The Calm Before the Houseguest

WAFFLES:  Hey Boss, you sure have been napping a long time.

KATIE:  We're cats, Waffles. That's what we do. 

WAFFLES:  Yeah, but are you ever going to let me nap in Glogirly's chair by the window? 

KATIE:  Maybe when our next houseguest arrives. I'll be stationed in the walk-in closet. Threat level orange.

WAFFLES:  Orange? Our houseguest is orange?

KATIE:  Of course not, Waffles. *Yawn* But she is a cat lady. So expect lots of smells and a layer of foreign fur on her clothes. 

WAFFLES:  You mean like from France?

Incoming!

We've got a surprise guest arriving for a mountain visit this Friday, all the way from Jersey City. She's a dear friend of Glogirly and a longtime admirer of Katie and Waffles. In fact, she was swooning over Katie before there even was a Waffles.

Glogirly calls that BW. Before Waffles.

Or as Katie refers to it, When life was simple, quiet, and peaceful. And no one stole her breakfast.
