Watching Over Tine In Bed
Regrettably, Tine is feeling a little fragile today, and she won't be up for her daily walk with Rubob.
"I think I'd prefer to stay in my PJ's today," she said to Rubob this morning, "and it might not be wise to venture out in them this afternoon."
"It won't be the same without a walk today," she thought.
"Do you think we'll be missed?" she asked Rubob.
"It's cold out there, Tine," Rubob said.
If the truth were known, Tine was also concerned about the possibility of ice pellets again. It was only a 20 percent possibility, but nevertheless, they loomed on the horizon with a large question mark in the forecast this morning.
I hope they're "non-damaging ice pellets," Tine thought. Oddly enough, "friendly, non-damaging" ice pellets had been advertised on Tine's blog recently. (Tine Ponders Non-Damaging Ice Pellets.)
This reminded Tine of a curious development in the tailored ads on her site -- something Rubob had noticed last night:
Apparently (or not so apparently, since they're very stealthy), the ad men watching over Tine's blog had followed Rubob and her home one evening, after tailing them on their daily walk to see what topics were discussed. They must have stayed late and caught Rubob in his PJ's during this episode in the blog, Tine speculated: Rubob Enters on Soft Foot.
"When I went down for a slice of bread, I thought there seemed to be a few slices missing on the kitchen counter," Rubob said.
The tailored ads would have to become decidedly less tailored if they were designed with Rubob's PJ's in mind, Tine thought.
"In any case, I wish I had nicer PJ's to wear today," she thought (a trifle feverishly).
