Befuddlement

"Mom left us locked in the kitchen today while she went to work. When she came home she brought presents, she said they weren't for us, but I can tell. Two big blue boxes (can I tell color?, maybe not), anyway two big boxes and they smelled good. I have a really good nose so I can ususally tell where mom's been and who she's been with...she say's "quit that sniffing", but how else am I supposed to get the info? Well, these boxes smell like someplace I know I've never been; salty air, and different people than I'm used to. I'm really not a racist dog, I love love love everyone, but some people just smell different. Too bad I can't tell color. Mom said she was filling them up with the fall stuff - I just love fall stuff - all those leaves, moldy and wet - YUM. But she filled them with stuff from the big table, the counter and some baskets - that's not fall, that's junk. Mom called it junk too, kept muttering about cleaning out the basement but we both know that will never happen. So I kept waiting to see what was in the bottom box, the top one was so fine, but the bottom was empty too, except,for the smells. I know that smell, I rolled in it once, then they buried the roll-thing and made me have a bath. So who was buried in the box? Another mystery.
