Eating Grass and Making History

Hi Everybody!
Did you know I eat grass? Yes. I do. Sue says it is the most annoying thing I do. She says "You are destroying our yard!" But I cannot help it. Now Sue is glad I eat grass and I will tell you why:

Last night I had to pee at 2:30 a.m. so Sue took me outside. On our way out she said, "Oh Elvis. I am glad you woke me up because maybe we can see the eclipse!!"
That is what I was thinking too!! I was thinking, "If Sue takes me out at 2:30 maybe we can see the eclipse!!"

Well, it was cloudy. While I was peeing Sue said, "It is too cloudy to see the eclipse. I am sad." Well, I was sad too, because I wanted to see the eclipse, so I decided to EAT GRASS so Sue would get mad and we would have to stay outside longer. Sure enough, she got mad and when she yelled at me I managed to run around both the bluebird feeder and the bluebird house and got my long leash tangled around two poles!!

Sue was purrrrrrrty mad as she was in her nightgown and her muck boots trying to get me untangled. She said, "Can't you see I"m freezing??? Why did you do this??"
Then when she got me untangled she looked up and ALL THE CLOUDS HAD PARTED and we saw the beautiful coppery moon in FULL ECLIPSE!!

Sue said, "Elvis! Look! It's the full eclipse!!" I was so happy! We saw the eclipse!! Sue said people had not seen the eclipse like this since 1638!! I do not know what "1638" is but she had been talking about "1638" all week.

So now you know how I helped us make history by having to pee and eating grass.
Happy Winter Solstice!!

Love,
Elvis

  1. Good job, Elvis! It was too cloudy to see the eclipse at our house. You are so smart to create an obstacle to make Sue stay outside to see it!
