Boo: Oh, my goodness! Finally! I thought Missus would never come back.
Yeti: I didn’t even realize she was leaving.
Boo: You didn’t notice two weeks of packing before she left? I knew something was up. You practically slept through it all anyway.
Yeti: Oh, you know sometimes she just rearranges stuff; I don’t make assumptions. However, I would like to know why Mister didn’t go with her. They never cease making me nauseous with all their cuddling. It must have been hard for them to stop so long.
Boo: At least when they do that with each other, they ignore you. Anyway, I heard he didn’t have some paper he needed.
Yeti: Humans and their stupid papers! They make life so complicated.
Boo: I’ll never understand why some papers are so important when they throw so much of it away. Well, we were all lost without her. So much time between meals….
Yeti: I was lost without the laptop. I couldn’t even post anything while she was gone.
Boo: But I thought you were magic.
Yeti: Not without limitation!
Boo: OooOOooh.
Yeti: [Squinting] What?
Boo: [Smugly] Nothing.
Yeti: Frankly I’m a little miffed. She didn’t consider taking us, and hasn’t even told us what she was doing in this “Israel” place. I want to know what’s so much more important than we are.
Boo: You wanted to go??? Poor Mister acted like she went to the moon. I’m just as glad she didn’t take us – and doesn’t tell us. I wouldn’t want her to know what we were doing here.
Yeti: You wouldn’t. And what’s this “we”? Keep me out of it.
Boo: [Frowning] I wonder if she was lonely without us….
Yeti: She wasn’t alone; she went with MamaMister and some others.
Boo: She’s the one who watches us when Mister and Missus go away! [Furrows her brow in thought, then shrugs] I guess one of them has to stay home. Maybe it was Mister’s turn.
Yeti: Then I guess Missus will have a turn sometime soon…meh.
Boo: ‘Meh‘? Aren’t you going to forgive her?
Yeti: [Sighs] I guess I already have…I just like making her grovel.
Boo: Isn’t that a tad bit vindictive?
Yeti: I like to think of it as ‘poetic justice’.
Boo: How’s that?
Yeti: She’s always mauling me, then she leaves me alone, giving me what I want; she comes home and mauls me again and I snub her….
Boo: But that’s what you always do!
Yeti: Oh…yeah.
