Smiling on Tuesday

MERCI'  I thought I would show you my new bed.

RUSTY:  That looks comfortable, but why are we staring at your back?

MARCUS:  Aren't you supposed to face the camera and smile?

MERCI:  Only on Tuesday  This is Thursday.

CYNDI:  What's so special about Tuesday?

MERCI:  I was smiling on Tuesday but Jan didn't come by with the camera until Wednesday..

BUDDY:   That sounds about right.  She's always late.

MICAH:  Still, we would all like to see your pretty smiling face.

MERCI:  So come by next Tuesday.  It will be on display then.

PERCY:  You're usually so easy-going, Merci.  What's the problem?

MERCI:  I'm teaching Jan a lesson.  She's been taking me for granted.  Smile, Merci.  Turn around, Merci.  Where's I'm sorry I'm late, Merci?  Or here's a treat for posing, Merci?

SAM:  You know Jan is forgetful.  She probably thought it was still Tuesday when she took your picture.  She did buy you a new bed so have a warm place of your own again.   

MERCI:  You're right, Sam.  I should be thankful I have a new bed, even if Buddy does keep trying to scrunch himself up in it.  Okay, I'll turn around and smile.  Hey, where did Jan go with the camera?
