i slept in HM's bed last night because she came home so late she was afraid she couldn't wake up this morning on time. the alarm rang at 530, she shot an arm out, shut it off, and promptly snored her way back to dreamland. but i had to get her out of bed.
should i slowly squeeze her to one side of the bed until she falls off? nah that would take way too long. should i try to turn on the alarm again? nah i don't dare to jump onto the bedside table. should i bark? maybe, but the thing that gets out of bed eventually would be a grumpy madwoman.
so this was what i did: walked up to her head, put a paw gently on her cheek, and plastered my tongue across both her nostrils. lrrrrssspppprrrrlllllll

she snuffled and turned over belly down, putting up an arm to cover her nose. no biggie. i'll just stick my face into the crook of her arm and breathe heavily into her ear. i even stuck a pawnail in and wiggled it a little.

she moved her arm up to cover her ear. but left her face open. time for the final move. lick both her eyelids, and rub my whole face, tongue and all, into her face.

there we go, a giggling and awake HM. ok let's go get my breakfast.
