With breath that could scare you back onto the plane

I got up yesterday morning (and I'm using the term morning loosely here) and went into Lolita's room to find her in bed...with a woman! I said, "Oh my gosh, is that your wife?" And then I ran over and leaped, like a frog, on top of said wife. I'm not sure why this was my first instinct--to fly through the air and make a crash landing in between the happy snuggling married people. It got worse, though. Then, with my most horrendous I-haven't-brushed-my-teeth-in-eighteen-hours-and-
I-slept-with-my-mouth-open breath, I yelled, "Hello! What are you doing here?" This is how I welcome all surprise guests...I soar into romance for a whiff of fresh gingival bacteria.

So, Lolita is having an amazing weekend because her wife, who lives far, far away and hates, hates, hates to fly, hopped on a plane just to see her. And a fabulous time is being had by all (now that I've brushed my teeth).

Here's to the happy threesome...

And, it is sweet that you did that. You are kind of like a puppy.

Which we now have. Would you like him? Then, Lolita could know the joy of pouncing every single morning....

Sounds like a fun time despite the breath. Do you really sleep with your mouth open?

Maria, I'll be happy to take him...as soon as he's house broken ;>

Rich, only when my nose is stuffed up.

Wow!
Can I be a guest in your house, T?
I've not been jumped on in the morning since about 1994.

I highly encourage pouncing on house guests. That's what tiggers do best.

(though I usually spoon them)

Funny...I guess they were surprised, huh? You threw yourself on top? With morning breath? You must have been happy to see her.
