If You Snooze You Lose Your Turkey Burger

I ate oatmeal for lunch and bought a turkey burger to eat later for dinner. When I got home I was twisting and headed straight to the restroom.  I threw my work bag and the plastic bag containing my turkey burger on the sofa as I twisted by. After talking on the phone, turning on the TV, and drinking a glass of water; I noticed London (my 4 years old Yorkshire Terrier) was ready to go outside; so I let her out.  As I walked back through the house I noticed an empty open faced hamburger bun and sandwich wrapper on the floor. My brother-in-law had just come in; so I figured London got too close to a burger and he let her have it. While I was watching TV I thought about the turkey burger I purchased earlier. Horror came across my face when my mind back tracked to the open faced hamburger bun on the floor in the other room.  I rushed to the sofa to see if my burger was safe; it was not. The plastic bag was torn open and my turkey burger was missing. London was outside running around like she was innocent and free.  :-/  I couldn't be angry with the little crumb snatcher because I should have left my burger in my work bag, remembered to put it in the refrigerator, or put it up out of her reach.  With London around; if you snooze you lose your turkey burger.
