Sleeping together again......

Hi...it's me.....Annie Grace.....
I am now going through all our paperwork regarding how much money we have lost in the stock market. I know many people think I am not up on all these things but this morning when I only received a 1/8 tablespoon of Sheba Chicken flavored.....I became concerned. Let me start with the beginning of this story.
I sleep alone now. By myself....in the guest room....solo. Please do not be so quick to yell at me. I know....I know..... for 8 months since I arrived I ALWAYS sleep next to The Lady, at her feet. Well a couple of weeks ago I decided that I would try sleeping alone. I wait patiently at the top of the stairs by 10 PM as I will not go off until she comes up to bed and I ALWAYS jump up and wake her at precisely 6:41AM (It is my job.....and my Sheba ration) She has taken this personally even though I have told her that her snoring, lack of sleeping, watching infomercials at 4AM, restless leg movement and drooling have nothing to do with my change of sleeping accommodations. She does not believe me and is now googling "cat behavior at night." Anyway....I digress. So.....last night I decided at 2AM to not only sleep with her but sleep next to her head. If this is not a show of affection....then what is???? I expected a tad more acknowledgement from my gesture but I got...NOTHING! I would expect that not only would she feed me an extra ration of Sheba but that she would jump out of bed and empty my litter box so it would be fresh for morning. NOTHING!! So I stayed and slept through the night....still surprised at the lack of fanfare. Keeping all this in mind I decided to wake her earlier. Just to keep her on her toes....and me in control. It all backfired! She NEEDED to get up earlier. I actually enabled her! Anyway....as I calmly waited my tablespoon of Sheba, Chicken Flavor......waited and waited , finally my plate arrived. With 1/8th of a tablespoon. As I devoured it I thought to myself....what is wrong with this picture? I provide my affection and attention at 2AM until dawn and this is what I get? Are we poor? Should I try to escape to Poland or Italy? Now she is so self absorbed putting on make up to leave the house VERY early that I am suspect we are about to hit the mother load in a real estate sale or she is just giddy with excitement to peddle her wares. Since I have never seen her leave so early for work I am suspect that we are doomed or about to be rich with Sheba.
