Welcome to Week 14 of our 15 week countdown to retirement! (Just click over to HERE if you missed the big announcement.)
Today’s blog post is one of Glogirly’s favorites. The photos are taken in her office, a.k.a the guest room. Whenever she works in there, the kitties supervise her from high atop the cat tree. It’s an added bonus for guests when they are supervised as well.
The conversation between Ellie and Waffles highlights Ellie’s confidence and chutzpah. Despite her slight physique, as compared to Waffles “he-must-work-out” mancat muscles, she speaks her mind and even walks all over him. Often leaving him wondering what just happened.
ELLIE: Hey, Mister Waffles! I made it all the way up the cat tree!
WAFFLES: ALL the way??? Barely. You’re not even close to the top.
ELLIE: Beep, beep! Coming through, Mister Waffles!
WAFFLES: Sheesh…never thought there’d be a traffic jam on my very own cat tree.
ELLIE: Beep-beep, beep!
WAFFLES: Clearly we’re going to need some kind of EZ pass thing. Rush hour’s going to be a nightmare. Just wait until there’s SNOW.
ELLIE: Almost to the top…
ELLIE: Ok on second thought, this is super high. Like really super CRAZY-high.
ELLIE:
WAFFLES: Kids.
30 seconds later…
WAFFLES: I’m still, and will forever be…
WAFFLES: KING OF THE CAT TREE!
A lot of friends have asked about the big poster in Glogirly’s room. Often with a puzzled look on their face. Well, it’s an inside joke for anyone who has ever watched the movie, Glengarry Glen Ross. “Coffee is for closers.” If you know, you know.
