There's the MG&E truck.
There's a city snow/salt truck.

"Stop! You're here. I see you."
"That's your house? That's not how I remember it at all."

Work: power, light, heat, Internet, coffee, and plug for my hair dryer.
So, how's the weather there?

Victor: Bonnie, what happened?
Bonnie: You woke me up.
Victor: No, I mean, why's the howse so quiet?
Bonnie: It happens sometimes. Dark, too. Go to sleep.
Victor: But Bonnie, I's thirsty.
Bonnie: So?
Victor: I's thirsty, but the fountain is off.
Bonnie: WHAT?!?!?! This is an emergency! Race around like an idiot while I stare down the fountain.
Victor: Will that help? We can still drink the water.
Bonnie: Have you got any better ideas? I know! I'll sleep in the sink until someone turns the water on.
Victor: Nobody's home but us.
Bonnie: We're doomed!
I like your poem! But I am a little worried about you all. Will you get too cold without any power and all that snow?
ReplyDeleteOh no!!! This is a dee-sarz-ter! This is a curl-lamb-meetee! Where are your beans?!!!
ReplyDelete~Bombay
No power - that's scary and cold with all that snow. FAZ
ReplyDeleteYipes! No water - no power - not good.
ReplyDeleteI fink we'll be ok... there's water, just not moofin thru the fountain. An it won't get too cold; I'll go unner the purr padd an Bonnie's on the boy's bed. You know, we could keep warm by snugglin TOGETHER! Yup, either snugglin or chasin thru the howse since Bonnie don't like me :-)
ReplyDeleteBut I mite haf to help wif dinner; it's sittin in the Crock pot not cookin an we wouldn't want it to go bad...
We have more snow today too, but at least we have power, heat & water!!!!
ReplyDeleteHeh heh...run around like an idiot...no problem there, hmmmm?
Dis snow suks! At least we gots power. And Phd's ushooally only gots book smarts. Most of 'em wood die in da reel world wifout somebean to help them. Yoo guys cood teleport over, it's not far, and we cood all cuddle under da covers on da big bed.
ReplyDeleteoh dear! sounds bad!
ReplyDeleteUh-oh...isn't it supposed to be Spring? That sounds like a major malfunction. I hope it gets fixed soon!

Nice poem!
ReplyDeleteHopefully we won't be doomed like you when the 'lizard arrives on Friday.
No lights and no power is scary but no water fountain?! That is a tragedy. Hope your power comes back quick!
ReplyDeleteTee hee. We likes da commintz bowt da PhD. Duh. You guys stay warm ok? Or run arownd like idiots.
ReplyDeleteLuf, Us
Time fer warm snugglin'!
ReplyDeleteOh my, I hopes your power came back on soon. Not good when the fountain and the heaty things can't run.
ReplyDeleteGosh, you have a drinking fountain. Does that mean you have continous running water? That's really neat. Really liked your poem, but that dark cold house sounds a little scary.
ReplyDeleteCasper
hehe-I liked the poem. Mom has a PhD, and is, eh, directionally challenged....
ReplyDeleteI hope you two snuggle close (I know, I know), but it is a good way to stay warm.

What's snow?
ReplyDeleteYOU'RE DOOMED?!
ReplyDeleteSHOULD I SEND MY EMERGENCY TUNA STASH?!?!
I like the poem, but the circumstances sound bad. I hope your power came back on. A cold, dark house is no fun at all.
ReplyDeleteIs this a plot to inconvenience the Cats?
ReplyDeletethats happend to me once but we liv in an apt build no = no elvatior you got uses to the stair black pitched black!!
ReplyDeleteOne time an elctic poll feel down on the highway right by our house and they had to spend days fixing it mama in the end had to drag us down 4 flight of stairs to her medle moster try draing 12.8 lbs and 15lbs of flabby cat down stairs it quite a work out
Mu shue
Yikes! Have things improved now? We sure hope so.
ReplyDeleteIf anyone jumps on the top of the tunnel bed, it would squash into regular bed shape. It's very flexible. It's nice like that, but we really prefer the tunnel shape. It's fun, plus warm, plus cozy.
Are you still snowed in? This wevver is no good! It am the endless winter like last year.
ReplyDeleteoh we hopes you didn't get too cold! We gotted snow the same day but it's all gone again.
ReplyDeleteHopes you are all ok!!
Bonnie & Victor, thank you so much for your encouraging words while I wasn't feeling so hot. I think I'm better, but my human is abusing me and dumping toxic waste down my throat and in my ears. YUCK!!
ReplyDeleteRocky
