She misses me. I think I like being missed, it really cheered me up. I sat and thought about how lovely it is when I curl up on her knee, it is a bit of a feat as I don\u2019t really fit but that doesn\u2019t stop me trying. She strokes me and tells me stories and rubs my tummy. Really I think she probably spoils me a bit, I know the master thinks so but he\u2019s a big softy too even if he doesn\u2019t show it all the time. I really miss being tucked in at night and given a goodnight kiss before I go to sleep. It just isn\u2019t the same when you are staying with a whole load of dogs, it doesn\u2019t do to show your softer side too much. I think it\u2019s a dog thing, it may just be a male thing. Maybe the girl dogs feel differently about it. Anyway, she seems to be keeping busy without me and has seen some of her friends that she hasn\u2019t seen for a while. She has \u2018accidentally\u2019 bought some new clothes. I\u2019m not really sure exactly how you do that accidentally, but there you go that\u2019s my mistress for you. Yesterday, they were going to see the minister who is taking the wedding service, he is actually an old school friend of my mistress\u2019s which seems rather nice really. I just hope he is also qualified to take the service, it would be a bit of a shame to go through with it all only to find it hadn\u2019t really happened at all, but I am sure she has thought about that.<\/p>\n<p>I got bored with dog food so when the coast was clear I managed to nip out and go in search of the ubiquitous MacDonald\u2019s. I have to Say I am getting a little bit fed up of the number of times I go out craving \u20182 apple pies for 99p\u2019 and get to the counter to be told that although there are apple pies on the sign, and there is a machine behind them to keep apple pies hot, they have not in fact put any apple pies into the machine to be able to sell any to me. You build yourself up to a craving, the least they can do is to be ready to satisfy it. If you aren\u2019t careful you start to find yourself combing the streets in search of another MacDonald\u2019s and then another all of whom seem to think it is ok not to be able to sell you apple pies. I wonder what is the greatest lengths someone would go to in an attempt to be served an apple pie? I have contemplated taking the manager hostage but I\u2019m not absolutely certain a dog would be taken seriously, particularly one that looked as soft as I do.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>I was so happy this morning, I got a letter from my mistress.
