Usually it’s Polly who sleeps on top of Henry, but occasionally, it’s the other way around. I don’t think either one of them are the least bit bothered by being squashed by the other.
I’m also really glad that I bought the cheap PVC-and-nylon kitty jungle gym that sits behind the couch. They spend a lot of time hanging out there. It gives them a good perch to keep an eye on things, without lying on the couch itself, which is Harriet’s territory.
Leaving cigarette ash and butts in the stairwells is kind of gross. If you’re going to smoke indoors, at least use an ashtray. Were you raised by wolves?
Leaving a washing machine full of your sequined underwear for someone else to remove is likewise pretty gross. Especially when you washed them on cold.
Letting your dog shriek frantically all day, nonstop, is not only annoying to the people who live around you, but it’s not very nice for the dog, either. Poor thing.
Tossing your empty beer bottles in the bushes is awfully lazy, but it’s preferable to you leaving them in the parking lot. If you’re going to sit in your car and drink, put the empties in the trash, please.
To whomever put the rocking chair in the laundry room, I worry about you. I really do. Why on earth are you hanging around in the basement? It’s dark and a little creepy down there. Surely you can find a more pleasant place to sit?
And all you people who are leaving your new phone books sitting on your front doorsteps, please don’t. Believe me, I know it’s annoying to get junk you didn’t ask for, but at least take them to the recycling, instead of leaving them out in the rain.
Likewise, leaving your junk mail on top of the mailboxes is uncalled for. I know you’re probably annoyed at receiving it, but you don’t have to share the annoyance with all your neighbors. Chances are, we got the exact same junk mail, so now we’re doubly annoyed. Thanks a lot!
That is all. As you were, comrades!
