I am Doodlebug, King of the Olde English Bulldogges. Move along. Move along. Time’s a-wasting.
Sweetie: Hey, no cutting in line! I was here first!
Doodlebug: My stomach is getting emptier by the second.
Me: You just ate not three hours ago.
Doodlebug: YES! TOO LONG! And this line is taking forever.
Sweetie: The service here is terrible.
Me: Hey, I’ve only got two hands.
MoonCat: Meow! Where is my food?
Me: Coming. Coming. I only have two legs.
Sweetie: Excuses. Excuses. Keep the line moving.

I am Sweetie, Queen of the Olde English Bulldogges. Forget that King Doodlebug stuff.
Me: Don’t you want to come in? You’ve been out here quite a while.
Sweetie: Sunbaths are the best thing ever.
Me: Well, they are on 50° days in February. On 103° days in July, not so much.
Sweetie: The sun has been hiding a bunch lately. I’ve got to catch it when I can. Hey, since I am queen, can’t I just tell it to shine?
Me: It doesn’t work that way. Sorry.
Sweetie: Don’t worry about it, Lady Human. Just something else for bulldogs to fix when we take over.
