Please Reset the Early Alarm – Conversations with the Pack

I am Doodlebug, King of the Olde English Bulldogges. Oh, no, not again.

MoonCat: Meow! What’s the holdup?

Me: What is going on?

MoonCat: The Great Big Light is awake in the sky. Food time!

Sweetie: Ugghhh! If I can wait, you can wait. And I can wait.

Me: Yes, so can I. Is there any way we can reset the breakfast alarm to something a little later than dawn?

Doodlebug: Since I have adjusted my schedule to a late breakfast, I agree. I hereby issue a royal command. No breakfast alarm until…

MoonCat: …the cat says so. Done and done.

Breakfast Call – Conversations with the Pack

I am Doodlebug, King of the Olde English Bulldogges. What’s going on?

MoonCat: Meow. Bark. Go on! Bark!

Doodlebug: Oh, all right. If you say so.

Me: What is going on here?

MoonCat: Meow. Time for breakfast. Hurry along.

Me: It’s not even light yet.

MoonCat: Meow. What’s light got to do with anything? This is breakfast call.

Sweetie: What’s all the ruckus?

Me: MoonCat is calling for breakfast.

Sweetie: Number one – she’s not a bulldog, so she doesn’t get to say when breakfast is. Number two – It’s still dark. Number 3 – well, I’ve forgotten Number 3. I’m going back to sleep.

Early Call – Conversations with the Pack

I am Doodlebug, King of the Olde English Bulldogges. Lady Human! Oh. Lady Human!

Me: Do you all know what time it is?

Sweetie: Don’t know. Don’t care. Time to get up, Lazybones.

Me: Get up? It’s still dark outside!

MoonCat: Best time of day.

Me: Did you get this party started?

Doodlebug: No, I did. She just suggested it.

Sweetie: Hey, Lady Human, this is an early breakfast call. Just give us the grub so we can get back to bed. What you do with your time then is your business.
