I have devised a new way to wear down the emotional and energy reserves of my human captors. It is my own take on Chinese water torture, in which I tip over every vessel left within my reach that still has any liquid in it - everything from a drop to a torrent.
So far I have ruined three magazines, two books, a very important piece of mail, and the better half of the coffee table in the living room. Soon, if I am persistent, I might be able to soak an IPad or cell phone. Those, however, are just the bonus side effects. The most important outcome has been the constant nervous energy exhibited by the woman. She has even developed a bit of a tic in her left eye. I am slowly wearing them down. Slowly, but surely.
Also, I have discovered that ice water, surprisingly, really is more refreshing than tepid water. That has given me reason to enjoy this new plot even more.
