I\u2019m having a bit of a lie in today. My mistress doesn\u2019t have to get up early as James is on holiday so I thought I would show willing by snuggling up with her. It was all going very well until she told me they would be going to the theatre without me on Wednesday. \u201cWhy can\u2019t I come?\u201d I asked mournfully. But it turns out it is one of these dog discrimination things, unless I am a guide dog. I don\u2019t think my mistress fancies pretending she can\u2019t see, it might reduce her enjoyment of the production. I could always climb up onto her knee and tell her what\u2019s happening on the stage. James doesn\u2019t have to go to school this week or next week, so I\u2019m hoping he might want to spend his time playing tug with me. He said something about unicycling, but I\u2019m sure he would rather play tug. I asked if we could all go out for the day, maybe for a long walk, but I don\u2019t think I\u2019ve persuaded everyone to vote in favour of my proposal. I\u2019m optimistic that he might do some cooking. I can at least get involved in that process, even if it is only in a \u2018lick the floor\u2019 sort of way. I try begging to lick the bowl out as well but my Mistress usually gets in the way of that happening.<\/p>\n
