The routine became easier every day, but I began to wonder if I would ever see my home again. Hmph! is all I can say.
I hope they don't expect me to lie on the ground.
More tomorrow, my dear fans!

Very unfair. Why are you not in (and of course dominating) the bed of your human subordinates? (I phrased this wrongly, sorry. Why are they not in YOUR bed?) Who do they think they are to put you all by yourself on this stupid platform?
Myself, I (graciously, I am a gracious Alpha) let my subordinates sleep in my bed on vacation, and God help them if they try to sleep anywhere else. Even when we're camping. Especially when we're camping. If something unfamiliar comes within 1000 yards, I bark. It's the least I owe them. Leadership means something, after all.
There's a story about this. My subordinates and their "grandson" (whatever that may mean) went camping weekend before last, and because the tent wasn't quite big enough for all of them, GammaWolf, the one I have the best grip on, slept outside. They tried to stick me in the tent.
Well, that of course is not to be tolerated (I control where I sleep, not them), so I clawed my way through the zipper out of the tent and presented myself to Gamma, ready to protect her, as is my place. She grumbled, but took me into her bag. Alas, there were numerous unfamiliar sounds in the campground, so I had to keep waking up all night to bark to protect her.
Sausha, my advice is to get a grip. These persons are challenging your status as Alpha. If I were you, I'd meet that challenge however possible, even if that includes barking all night.
My dearest Leo, I quite agree with you in all particulars. However, I, Sausha Angel (note the lulling sobriquet), prefer to rule with my iron paw hidden in a velvet glove (a pretty one).
Rather than barking all night, it is much more fun to wait until I hear their steady breathing. THEN I jump-start their hearts with a few shrill barks.

Very smart, Sausha. I too am a master of the sudden, unwarned, unbelievably ear-piercing bark, which makes everyone in earshot jump a foot.
However, I will say that I drove Gamma nuts that night with the constant YAP. (Long silence...she's nearly asleep...I rush out into an orgy of barking! She drags me back...she's nearly asleep...I rush out....went on all night. That'll show her to try to tell me where to sleep!)
I was lucky she didn't stick me in the car.
HEHEHEHEHEHHE...oh Sausha. I have been reading your blog today. I've forgotten what a wonderful writer you are. A regular "Jane Pawston", if you will
Love, Mary-Margaret
You are no slouch, Mary-Margaret, and my friend Leo is quite wonderful himself. Maybe we could start a little Algonquin Round Table.
