Schrodinger curls up with his feather quill, chews on it a bit as he thinks…then he begins.

Well my loyal fans, I can confirm that I have very definitely been abandoned. We haven’t seen even a shadow of hoomum for two whole sleeps! We’ve paced around the house, sniffed in all of her favourite spots, but there’s been no sign. Will she ever, ever come back??

Fortunately, we’ve been comforted in our abandonment by a nice lady who comes to make sure we have food and water and then she sets out a lovely assortment of toys to entertain us. She keeps making odd clicking sounds with her light box, I don’t know why that is but so long as we can play, we’re not bothered by it. Of COURSE hoomama never ever ever provides us with such lovely toys so we have to find our own entertainment, but I digress.

This morning, after a few clicks on her light box, the nice hoomun did some clicky things with her fingers, then wrinkled her forehead a bit, then a few more clicky things….and then she did the ODDEST thing! Would you believe, she started walking all the way around the house, picking up every single low hanging curtain and sniffing it??? Hoomuns really are strange and I have NO IDEA why she might do such a thing. Well, you can see I was in shock at her strange behaviour.

The thing is, she kept picking up a curtain, sniffing it and muttering, “Nope, not this one….” Then moving onto the next, “Nope, not this one either….” I mean doesn’t she KNOW that I, Schrodinger, have decided to give up curtains for Lent? I mean it seems only fair, considering I live with one of those plastic neck people, that I should give up SOMETHING for Lent, so I figure curtains is a reasonable sacrifice.

Who knows if I’ll survive the WHOLE forty days, but we’re on Day 1 so far and it’s going well. I feel the odd twitch *down there* but I am managing to resist thus far.

Wish me luck fans!
