A trip to the kitchen is never simple

It seems impossible to just go to the kitchen, get whatever you were after, and leave.. Like just a little while ago, I wanted to grab a few Mikados (biscuits), but before I got to that, I had to clean a plate, let Thatsit out for a quick pee, wait for her to come back (=two whistles from the back door, one from the front door), give her dry food (as she didn't want the wet food that was in the bowl already), clean the water bowl and refill it.. I nearly forgot to grab those biscuits!
Now that I'm back in the attic, I'm half-waiting for Oimouttahere to wake up and want to nip out for a minute, etc..
