cuál alto el árbol será?

playful!puppy has a very short attention span and can be tricked up to five times in a row into almost biting me, if i put my hand close to his mouth while he's chewing my mom's sheets. (::cough:: i mean, um, while he's... not... chewing the sheets.) not sure how much this says, though, as cats, who are clearly more intelligent but also somewhat more excitable, can be all the way tricked into it. my own cats feel immeasurably guilty afterwards, which they demonstrate by nuzzling or blinking and purring or licking, but they're incorrect if they think that would make up for it. well. okay. i mean, it's not like it's possible to be mad at them anyway, but. if it were, and if they'd really bitten, licking wouldn't really do anything.

okay, i sound like this because i'm within the last few paragraphs of [livejournal.com profile] mamahooch's story. i'm going to finish it now.
