Out

..... belated diary entry

It has come to my attention that I have been neglectful as a diarist. Life is hectic. If it's not one thing... it's your Mother.
SWMBT brought home a house guest last week: small, yellow, and twittering: Daisy. You can just imagine my extreme agitation! What could she be thinking? One's schedule, one's bastion of serenity, discombobulated. Really! That creature got on my last nerve.
At first I simply ignored her. But then, she started to call out to me and I just couldn't bear it. I let her know in very firm directives that I was not interested in her mindless tweeting. When she continued to twerp I looked at her askance, sniffed and turned my back.
Today I was relieved to see her cage had been removed from the premises. I can go on in my usual singular fashion.
