About/Barbelle
September 12th 2005. She doesn’t know it, but she’s partly full breed or something. She acts like it, anyway. Actively scheduling the day, she calls us out of bed, gets the girl in the garden when it's sunny, me down in front of stereo before bedtime (to be “clapped” on while lying…). With her eyes she chases me out of my computer chair before dinner; hers for a while to take a nap…
Having been under the protection of Billie all her life (she always stayed behind him outside), it’s great to see she’s now in total control of entrances to the house. Even the big scary fellows don't dare to pass when she totally acts out, and she’s 14 now. She can’t stand people too, in particularly children - but then she’s the one running upstairs (we’re not supposed to have visitors).
We’re totally soft when it comes to her wishes, then again, that’s what we are here on earth for….
