Me: Sweetie, you need to come in now.
Sweetie: Why? The sun is bathing my skin.
Me: It’s too hot, hon. Come on in.
Sweetie: I believe I’ll just sit here a little while longer. Have a seat, Lady Human. Have a sunbath. No sense wasting the sun.
Me: I don’t need the sun baking my brain.
Sweetie: It might make your brain work better.
Me: No, it won’t. It’s way too hot to be sitting out here in the sun on purpose. You need to come in because I said so.
Sweetie: Worst reason ever to do anything. I think I’ll just sit here…oh, wait, okay, that’s it. Done. I’m coming in now.
Me: Oh, now you’re coming in. What changed?
Sweetie: My bulldog brain timer just went off and said DONE. You humans really should get a brain timer, Lady Human. I’m concerned you might stay out in the sun too long.
