Work put me in an off mood. It wasn't a bad shift, but I wasn't in the mood for it, I guess.
Instead, I will tell a story on my nieces.
Hobbit has a stuffed dog named Goggy. Goggy goes everywhere with her, as does Beppy the stuffed leopard goes with Hammie and Lielie the stuffed lion goes with Smurf (please note, all were from Pappy and Kiki...we rock in the animal department). Well, the other night at dinner, there was a bit of a tragedy.
Goggy was on the kitchen table. Hammie picked him up and threw him behind her to get him off the table. He landed on the stove and his tail caught fire.
Hobbit was traumatized. Mummy bandaged the tail, but Hobbit would have nothing to do with him. She cut off the black stuff, but she still would have nothing to do with him. So, she told Hobbit that Goggy had to go to hospital and have his tail amputated.
THAT she accepted.
Except now there's a hole where his tail was, which Hobbit was told that's where Goggy poops. "In the toilet?" Of course, kid.
When asked what happened to Goggy, Hobbit replied, "Sister put fire on his tail."
In other news, Lielie's tail is currently safety pinned on and Beppy just looks like he's been run over by a truck a few times.
PETA would be all over that house if they knew.
