Dot: OK Mom, so you are up... It's dark outside and I want my mealies!Bark!Bark! Bark!

Dot: Hey, you talkin' about me !?! I want my d!#* mealies! Bark!

Mom: OK! Here. Have one, here Fiona... now let me wake up and let Daddy sleep. Shhh...

Mom reading more GC. 10 minutes go by, sipping coffee. Mom starts a reply...

Dot:Hey! I hear you! You are talking about me again! I want MY Mealies! Bark! Bark!!!

Mom: Just one minute...

Dot: No! Now!

Mom: Come on... Let me finish one thought without editing...

Dot: No! No! Now!

Mom:Ok, I'm done. Come on, let's go get a mealie. (Mom and Dot nose to nose)

Dot: Bark! No! Go get my mealies!

Mom: you want one? Hop on...

Dot: Nooo! (Mom walks away...) Wait for me! (Dot jumps off top of cage and lands on back of leg grabbing wildly at sweat pants, runs up and perches on shoulder as I step downstairs.)

Mom: So, ya wanna hang out with me for a bit?

Dot: No. Grab the whole bowl of mealies and let's go back to cage. Fiona wants one. I get the rest!

Fiona: Bark, bark, bark! (From her sleeping pouch of course). Where is Dot? Where's my mealie?

Mom: On my way, here Dot, one for the road.

This went on for about 2 hours...

Love this story! Aahh the joyous little barks of gliders early in the morning.

There's a possibility those gliders may be spoiled. <sniff, sniff>

I love the reenactment! It sounds like a familiar story.

Thanks guys! I'm glad I'm not alone! Although I wrote their script, this is an ongoing ordeal.

Yes they are spoiled. When they go in bonding Pouch or bye bye,seedless grapes are the preferred snack. They accept no substitutes.

This is my colony... only at about 2400hrs.
