That title is what mom said to me last night and this morning when I repeated my speech to her at 0630. She didn't go to bed till late last night as she and her oldest were learning functions of their new iTouch devices. And mom was downloading Apps from the Apple Store. Meanwhile, when she finally got to bed, she had a hard time falling asleep due to outdoor exercise and plenty of sunshine on her while she was out there. She said it was a great day and too bad I could not enjoy it with her. I hesitated to say that I was reposing in the sun the entire DAY...not for an hour or so as she did! So..who got the best of the deal..that would be me!
Meanwhile, she lay there sleepless but with her eyes closed and she must have dozed lightly finally because when I broke all the rules and came in there at midnight and meowed loudly two times, she jumped and I could tell she was hacked.
My middle name ain't "Stupid" so I hopped up and pretended that was my intent all along..to help send her off into peaceful slumber. She didn't buy it.
I walked up to her and laid my head on her pillow with her..facing her. She cracked her eyelids open..I saw her do it! and saw the lump I make there in bed with my head next to hers. I know what gets her every time though. I got comfortable and then...and then...I stretched my two arms out fully and put my paw pads on her mouth. She always said after all of these years, she's not dead and her lips didn't fall off..so she just enjoys the warm pads I put there for her enjoyment. I had to pull out all the stops because I could tell from her reaction when I broke the night time rule of meowing..she was irritated. So, I hurried up to charm her with my sweet self. Works every TIME I tell you.
I didn't have to walk the plank..I wasn't unceremoniously thrown out and the door closed. Hey. Do I know how to work her or what?

You do realize that throwing yourself at the closed bedroom door, repeatedly, ceaselessly, in fact, will get that door open again. Our human has, in truth, given up all hope of a peaceful night's sleep. She does, however, now sleep with ear plugs in, to cut down on the "disturbance" we create. ;-)
Ah, Admiral, sweetness is thy middle name. You have manipulating mom down to a fine art. Keep up the good work.
Admiral,
We are, once again, in awe of your manipulative prowess! Although Mommy might chomp off our toes (mouth breather) so we'll skip the paws-on-lips maneuver.
I'm very impressed!
Admiral, you got that mom of yours wrapped around your little paw....
Way to go, Admiral! You are indeed the master of your mommy's domain!
Thank you and your mommy for stopping by and offering such kind words about our friends Minnie and Kiki. Although we have the sads, we are glad to have such wonderful friends as you.
I guess you were understand each other very well? Especially you can read her mind can't you? Gypsy is as same way as yours :-)

We are very impressed with your persuasive powers Admiral! But of course how could your mommy resist you no matter what time of day or night?
I love what Beth said and just smiled.. Good work LB.
Admiral, you are definitely the boss as I am here. I never get on Mom's pillow when she's sleeping, but I sure let her know I mean business when I want attention.
You are GOOD! ruff ruff ruff
Stay cool, Admiral! ~ Flash
niiiiice work Admiral H!
bonks to you
Oh Admiral, this is such a GOOD story! We love your descriptionof putting your soft little toe-pads on her mouth to tell her to Shush, now! I might do that...except #1 I don't get that close to the Human's head and #2 I couldn't possibly retract my claws, mwah ha ha!
