I'm trying to work. Very complicated work at that. Syntaxy, layouty, problemy work and May just won't leave me alone. She is sitting by my chair and everytime I try to use the mouse and my elbow sticks a little off the desk, she starts licking me!! So I stop, pet her, tell her she's a good puppy and go back to work. More licking. I got up and gave her a treat and she went away for a while, but now she's back. I don't want to tie her up or scold her. She's not really doing anything wrong (from a dog's point of view).
Hmm … as I've been writing this, she's stopped licking me. I guess I ignored her into submission. She's now laying quietly by my feet.
