Christmews Wrap ™(Part 2)

XmasGiftKitties

Yeti: [Looking up at Peekaboo] Purrmow.

Boo: Meowow. [Hops off counter]

Yeti: Miaoww mew mow.

Boo: Oh, for crying out loud, we’ve been speaking “people” so long that our own language sounds like blah blah blah even to me anymore. No wonder they can’t understand us.

Yeti: You’re just failing to appreciate the subtle nuances in our native tongue.

Boo: I kinda like speaking “people”. It’s like we’re using a fun secret code.

Yeti: To hide our conversations from whom? I think you have that backward.

Boo: Whatever. I like our People world. It’s fun, and we don’t have to hunt.

Yeti: Yes, you just swipe whatever’s in reach.

Boo: I figure leftovers are left out for me. You know, like a Christmews gift.

Yeti: You’re going to regret some of the foods and beverages you procure someday.

Boo: Nah. There’s a new thing around this month. It’s called egg nog; it’s divine.

Yeti: Yawn. People food…blecch.

Boo: Your loss – more for me. Stuff’s so good it makes me go stupid.

Yeti: Really? How can you t- …um, never mind.

Boo: Huh? Oh. [Sticking out her tongue]

Yeti: Why don’t you use that thing on some nog?

Boo: Happy holidays, indeed.

Boo: [Beat-boxing] Boo, ch! Ba-boo-boo-ch! Boo-ch! Ba-boo-boo-ch!

Yeti: What on earth are you doing?

Boo: With all this wrapping, I thought I ought to join in.

Yeti: I’m not sure you’re interpreting that right.

Boo: I’m thinking outside of the gift box.

Yeti: Fine, I’m up for a laugh.

Boo: Boo, ch! Ba-boo-boo-ch! My name is Boo; don’t you make me blue / Just give me something that I can chew–

Yeti: Oh, please stop; that’s horrible already. And it’s not exactly got the spirit of Christmas to it.

Boo: I don’t want to sing about ghosts. It’s not even Halloween.

Yeti: It’s not that kind of spirit!

Boo: Don’t harsh my groove! I’m beat-boxing.

Yeti: The only box that belongs in is the litter box. And what is that thing on your head?

Boo: It’s my boo-rag.

Yeti: I don’t think that’s right either.

Boo: Oh, leave me alone; what do you know about rap?

Yeti: Nothing, thankfully. Wrap with a “W” is way more interesting to me! [Charges through some leftover scraps, making a pleasing rustling sound] I guess I’m hopelessly old-fashioned.

Nappy Boo Year ™

Boo: Nappy Boo Year.

Yeti: You mean Happy New Year.

Boo: You have it your way; I’ll have it mine.

Yeti: Let me guess: you, Peekaboo, are resolving to nap more this year.

Boo: Well, that’s only part of it. I resolve also to make this “The Year of Boo”.

Yeti: What?

Boo: [Mumbles and then goes silent]

Yeti: What? …Oh, if you’re not even going to try to be understandable I give up.

Boo: [Stares silently through Yeti until she turns to leave] BOO!!!!!

Yeti: [Jumping a foot in the air] Gadzooks! Don’t do that!

Boo: There’s your first one. Oh, you’re in for it this year. All year. Heheheheh…

Yeti: [Coolly] Just remember which one of us is bigger.

Boo: Boo. [Backs away, keeping an eye on Yeti] At least I can jump up out of your reach.

Yeti: I thought so. BOO-hoo. You’d best stick to your nap resolution instead.

Boo: [Under her breath] You have to sleep sometime….

Yeti: [Under hers] So do you….

Boo: Wow, you’re stylin’ there.

Yeti: I trust you aren’t being sarcastic.

Boo: Shows what you know. Now, why would you think that I would be sarcastic?

Yeti: Because you find it to be fun.

Boo: And you don’t?

Yeti: Of course I do.

Boo: So we understand each other.

Yeti: [Shrugs] Cats are cats. It’s what we do.

Boo: It’s so hard to ruffle your fur when you’re in these moods.

Yeti: What moods?

Boo: Your Pollyanna-Zen-life-is-great-as-seen-through-rose-colored-glasses moods.

Yeti: Well, you make it sound like a bad thing.

Boo: Only mildly annoying. Then you get me caught up in it.

Yeti: Well, you should try it.

Boo: Try what?

Yeti: Looking at life through rose-colored glasses.

Boo: Those must be some really RED roses, by the way.

Yeti: Indeed, it actually is a little challenging to see that way.

Boo: [trying on the heart-shaped, intensely red sunglasses] Ooh! It looks angry to me.

Yeti: Red is a color that is symbolic of many different feelings; I suppose it’s up to individual interpretation.

Boo: These things make me dizzy. I can’t focus. [Gives the shades back to Yeti] Here. These clash with my fur anyway.

Yeti: But they go perfectly with my little pink-heart nose.

Boo: And my little pink-heart tongue – oh blecch already. [Sticks her tongue out at Yeti]

Yeti: Your tongue looks quite red to me. Perhaps you have strep throat.

Boo: That’s not seeing life very rosy – oh, take those fool red things off!

Mewsletter #1

Boo: Wow! You’re finally online again.

Yeti: (sighs) Yes, I know…it’s been a while.

Boo: You’ve been slackin’.

Yeti: I know. I have. But to be fair, whenever I thought to mlog, Missus has been monopolizing the laptop or had it with her out of town.

Boo: And when it was available, you were cat-napping on the job.

Yeti: All right, I get it already! I’m trying to make it right.

Boo: Okay. Sorry. It’s just so rare that you’re in the wrong – and not me – that I had to bask in it at least for a little while.

Yeti: Honestly, Boo, you could have mlogged too.

Boo: Let’s not go there.

Yeti: Are you going to let me compose this or not? You’re not exactly helping.

Boo: Oh, I want to help. What are we saying?

Yeti: I thought it might be a proper time, being the end of the year, to do a Mewsletter.

Boo: That’s fabulous! What a fun idea! …Um, but just what exactly is that?

Yeti: (rolls eyes) A newsy post about what’s been going on since we last posted. Actually in a better format than this; I’m working on it here…see?

Boo: I see. And that last post was…when?

Yeti: According to the mlog: May.

Boo: Youch. We can’t let that happen again.

Yeti: Already solved. I saw a copy of Missus’ schedule, so we can exploit it, and post.

Boo: (eyebrow raises) I’m impressed at your sneakiness.

Yeti: Well, I am a cat after all. Anyway…June…Missus went on a long trip with MamaMissus. Again she came back with tons of photos to paint. She’s been sorting those and the ones from Israel almost non-stop on the computer since then, babbling about “too much good material for paintings”.

Boo: I’d think that would make her happy.

Yeti: My sense is that it does; she’s just overwhelmed by the sheer volume.

Boo: Why did she take so many then?

Yeti: She seems to subscribe to the philosophy that one must take about 100 photos to capture one really amazing one.

Boo: Then she must have gotten hundreds of awesome ones.

Yeti: I don’t doubt it. So…continuing on…summer…oh, yeah…they started looking for a house with an art studio –

Boo: NOOOO, nonononono. We’re not moving again. No. No. No. N–

Yeti: Keep your fur on. It seems they decided to wait. Some stuff is going on and I don’t really understand it. I can tell she’s really stressed out because she got really sick again.

Boo: That was awful. She was in a lot of pain for a while. It was worse pain than her cancer I think.

Yeti: Have you seen those horrific ads about shingles? It even looks painful. I couldn’t look at her.

Boo: But you did a good thing.

Yeti: Wha– oh.

Boo: “Cuddle bug”!

Yeti: Stop it. You did it too.

Boo: At least she was better by Christmas. She had projects again this year for church. And we got Christmas gifts!

Yeti: Yes – my goodness but those catnip toys were most potent! (blinks thrice)

Boo: (grins) I’m enjoying those. But it really doesn’t seem much happened this year. We must be missing something.

Yeti: Of course: Halloween.

Boo: Ugh, the costumes – better left forgotten.

Yeti: She’ll get us next year no doubt. (squints) Hmmm….

Boo: Your face suddenly looks much less angelic. What are you thinking???

Yeti: I think it’s time we turned the tables on her. She dressed up as me for Halloween this year…I think it would be well-earned if we share a little of the annual humiliation, after the Mewsletter, of course. (devilish grin)….

Yeti&BoosMewsletter

Yeti: Oh yeah, one more thing (mwahahahaha):

c500WeRAllYetisHere

Boo: (nodding) Awesome! I like it.

Yeti: Start the year off right, I say. On to 2016, Yeti Girl! And we’ll post much more too.

 

POST UPDATE:

Missus: Kitties, I don’t think this is very funny!
