On usurping the bed

Dearest boy,

you know that the AC isn't working in our bedroom and K and I are sleeping in the guest room since the past 4 weeks. The bed in the guest room is meant for, you know, mostly my mom, or guests who obviously are not long staying. It is therefore a comfortable king sized cot and not the super large one we are used to.

The placement of the AC duct also is such that it hits the cot near the bottom part. And that is where all the trouble has begun. From a pup who never wanted to get onto the bed and sleep, you have turned into a lout who never wants to get off the bed. Grappling as we are with lesser surface area, we now have to accommodate a giant dog on the sleeping area.

You climb on, settle onto my blanket and render me immobile for the rest of the night. Pray why can't you sleep on K's side of the bed? Or why can't you get off of my blanket?

For starters, I know you are a big boy, but amma needs to get some sleep too you know! and I am too polite to kick you off the bed. So be nice and learn to move a little when nudged
