My Preciousssss....

I hear the noise, that deep, rumbling purr. The cat sits up, stares out the window, tail twitching in anticipation. Closer it comes, closer. My heart beats a little harder. What will it be? What is about to alter the course of my day? Will it be flat, or bulky? Will it contain untold treasures, bad news?

There! I see that flash of brown, whipping into the cul-de-sac. Screech, slide, slam!

My precioussss....

I race to the door. I realize I need to get a life, then shake it off. Excitement floods my system. What has he got for me today???

UPS is here.

Oh come on. Admit it. You get just as excited as I do when you receive a package.
