It's 2am, I'm in a deep sleep and all of a sudden I hear CLANG, CLANG, CLANG... It's Munchie, her water bowl is apparently empty and she's banging it against the floor. CLANG, CLANG, CLANG. Hubby is growling from his side of the bed, and I'm saying, "maybe she'll give up and come back to bed." OH no, CLANG, CLANG, CLANG. Now Maggie pops her little head from under the covers, and she's off the bed to investigate what's going on in the utility room with her sister. CLANG, CLANG, CLANG.
LC is now sitting on the side of the bed, muttering, "those damned dogs are a royal pain in the ass." He trudges off to fill the water bowl, and gives them some fresh kibble while he's out there. I'm about to drift back off to sleep and all of a sudden here comes Maggie, like a little rocket ship, running as fast as she can, leaping on the bed, nosing her head under the covers, then turning around, slamming her little body next to me and thrusting her throat against my throat. I GASP, her beard is just drenched with water and it's COLD. But she's so adorable, so trusting, snuggling up to me, that I suck it up and lay there.
Then here comes Munchie, she jumps on my stomach and lays down for a cuddle. So I pet her for a bit, she gets off my tummy, turns around twice, lays down and lets out a big sigh. She's down for the rest of the night.
I'm still laying there with wet puppy dog throat against me, and of course by now I'm wide awake. Maggie is snoring softly against my ear, LC is already asleep again and me... now I have to pee!!! And that was my night....
