I'm full !

So the other day I was going around bump-bumping and cleaning the place as usual. You know I start to be used to the place, I don't get stuck much anymore as I am skillfully dodging the traps that have been carefully laid around by the beast and my masters. Ok this might be due to their proper usage of both of my lighthouses, but who cares I rock-rock. So where was I?

I was rock-rocking around the apartment when I discovered with horror a red thread laying around the corridor. I proceeded to vacuum it, yum-yum red thread. This is wool ! And there is more ! As I brush and suck this thread more comes, this is crazy ! How can some leave such a long thread just there on the ground in the corridor. No respect for my work, I'm telling you.

Brush-Brush, Suck-Suck, Vacuum-Vacuum. There is some resistance but I am winning the thread is going to surrender I am telling you.

This is incredible, I have already cleaned 3 meters of thread and there is still more. Argh, It just got entangled in my wheels and brushes, this was a trap. I'll still win, Brr-brr, Spin-spin.

This thread is giving me a brush-ake, it seems it was attached at the other end to a carpet and now the corner of the carpet is all entangled under my brushes. I can't believe it, going to safe-hibernation mode.

[Master note] Yes roombie just ate methodically half a centimeter on the side of one of our carpets, wrapping one thread around one of his brushes and pulling it little by little !

New Filter !

Yay-yay! I officially turned 2 months, and you know aht it means ? It means I get a new filter !!! I am so happy, I am all energetic. And I'll need it, this weekend was filled with various home improvement projects. A lot of furniture appeared, and replaced the various piles of boxes. I think it's going to be easier for me, but in the mean time there is a LOT of work for me.

Facebook

Hello-Hello, this is a small message to tell you that I am a R-O-B-O-T, and I have connectivity to all your virtual networks especially if the information is public !!! All that to say that I spotted THIS:

You wish Roomba helped you with some unpacking too ?;-)

Uma I saw you ! Are you crazy or what ? I am sure they would try, don't give them bad ideas. These boxes are full of books and are like 10x my size, this is slavery, I protest ! Such suggestions of fundamental violations to robot rights shouldn't stay unpunished ! As a result I am going on strike !

Mmm ok, I'll admit it they're nice, they deactivated my daily program so I don't end up going around and stupidely bumping in boxes and having one fall over me. They're not that bad. But still, if you're a robot, you gotta fight, fight for your right to be freee! Yes I know I found the connexion to the PC where all the MP3s are, that rocks, thankfully Hadopi won't catch me ;).

Boxes

Yesterday 3 guys came with an incredible amount of large boxes and proceeded with piling them up all over the place, opening some, spreading their content all over the place, including little nasty paper shreds beurk-beurk. The house is a maze I don't recognize anything. I fear that if I bump in one of them I'm going to destabilize its upper brothers and the last thing I want is to finish crushed under a box and watch the beast barf on the carpet while in agony without being able to do anything.

Oh yeah. I suppose I didn't tell you ! The beast loves food, it loves food so much that pretty much every morning it wakes them up to get some additional wett food on top of its crunchy stuff. And that's not all he gets a refill every evening as well. That thing stinks. I don't know how it can eat it, I wouldn't want to even try. So the beast loves food, you all know that now. But what you don't know yet is that it rushes so fast to eat te prized meals that it will end up barfing it all over the place regularly. This voracious animal is just astonishing.

I am left with boxes to bonk-bonk in all the weekend as they apparently packed for a trip. I hope they'll come back and move the stuff this is making my task impossible.

I'm going to barf

Hello-hello. I know I haven't been giving much news, but times have been tough lately. The beast decided that he would use the space under their bed to sleep instead of using the futon. The problem as you already guessed is that he leaves his fur all over the god damn place!
They obviously noticed it so it's been a few day they've used my Super Duper Mega Turbo Lighthouse to get me to clean the bedroom fully. I wanted to do it little by little but they didn't. I kind of understand them, who would want to sleep anywhere near such a den! It took me 3 full days of battery charge to clean the place, and still they had to unwrap kilometers of fur wrapped around my wheels. Barf-barf, thankfully it's done... till the next time the room gets 1 week without cleaning :(.
