Day 80

I thought the Island was small enough, but now I am isolated to my metal house in the cold room that the ferry is usually in and the ocean, okay maybe just rain water, is coming in towards me. Plus, those damn two legged men are still coming in and out of the house in a big flock and I can't protect my Captain from here. This is very frustrating.

While Captain did let me out of my metal house for tours, they were in the wet cold rain from the sky and huge lakes on the ground where I walk. Really, I don't mind the rain from the sky at all, but I don't like getting my paws all wet and I don't have nice rubber paw covers like my Captain or the ferry drivers. At least I had my four legged boxy gal Mia by my side for one long tour and could show her the best ways around the puddles.

When Captain did finally let me in the house it was dark outside and then she would only let me in my Papas big tv room with her and it had a bunch of furniture in it. We watched tv and the fun snow sports for a little bit before she turned off the lights. There were those big harry four legged dogs on the television and they were pulling sleds. I could totally do that. One of them took up the screen and looked right at us, I jumped off the floor and almost had my nose against the four legged beauty's nose before my Captain yelled at me and made me lay back down. She said something about Papa and tvs and death and divorce. . . not sure what that was all about. She was nice enough to spend some time laying on the floor with me and did bring me a bed in from the garage so I could sleep next to her. I have to say it was also nice of her to sleep on the couch so she could be with me. She said something about the human beds being up, but that there was wet stuff on the walls and I would "make a mess." I don't know why she would say that but it was nice having her near me. Whenever she stopped petting me, I would gently put her hand in my mouth to remind her that I am suffering here and that she needs to be nice to me.
