My life is definitely strange.
There's no other way to put it. A lot of that strangeness is due to my four-footed kin.
Here's tonight's tale...
I'm working at the moment. I was working 45 minutes ago, too. Nothing strange about that.
Except...
While stopping at the local gas station to pick up something to drink, I got a call on my cell. Not good at 0215 in the morning. Most of my friends and family are sound asleep at this time and late night calls are not normally good news.
My caller ID tells me "home" is calling.
Okay...
I live alone.
With two cats and a dog.
"Home" should not be calling me.
So, I went home in something of a rush. Why, I don't know. It was just more than a little odd to be getting that call.
I found an overly excited dog...
And the mess she'd made in the bedroom. Made minutes before.
Obviously, she'd need to go out to poop and when she couldn't, she opted for my bedroom. Lovely of her, right?
But my question?
What the heck was up with the phone call... which I got about the time she would've been frantic about going out...
She's smart, I'll grant you.
But that smart? Naw. No way.
Right?

First, I love that little ball on the sofa that is Maddie. Cats truly have the most unusual sleeping positions!
Second, a phone call? How bizzare is that!!!
Her favorite place to sleep is up in the suspended ceiling in my kitchen... but yeah, she looks pretty cute.
It was kinda creepy when I saw "Home" on the display. I have my number in my phone for those occasions when my sister is at my house when I'm at work but I never thought I'd get a call from there in the middle of the night!

this could almost be a ghost story! lol (except in the panic the phone must have been stepped on somehow to make the call)
ya have to admit.. they look innocent enough laying on the sofa! lol
How weird! They do say there is a connection between an animal and its owner . . .

I've got actual ghost stories about my house. This wasn't one of them. It is, however, the perfect random strangeness that is my life.
Bottom line is I left my house phone on the couch and I'd probably used it to call my cell to find my cell and all that needed to be done was for her to knock it off the hook and step on redial...

Okay... as I read this, Riley whipped her head around to look at me. Connected? Us?
