The Dog (pt 5)
She woke up to a lick across the face and the words “I have to go out” running through her head. She tried to bury herself under the covers then realized there was a rather large furry animal burrowing under the covers with her now trying to get his nose up under her shirt. “Hey! […]
The Dog (pt 4)
She’d been anxious quite honestly for a long time. Since the arrival of Doone, things had really hit an all time high. It was a different kind of anxiety and she wasn’t sure what exactly was going on. She fidgeted nervously as she glanced over at her SMTWTFS pill box, and wondered if its contents were […]
The Dog, Housework, Real Life (pt 3)
She realized that despite the fact there was a telepathic dog now living in her home, she had housework to do. If she was going to have to cook for Doone, she was going to have to clean the kitchen. An abundance of dirty dishes had accumulated in the sink, the dishwasher was full of clean […]
The Dog (pt 2)
“So you mean to tell me you can read my mind and you can communicate with me telepathically?” she said. “Yes, I can” the rottie continued with great delight at the baffled look on his new Mistress’s face. “We are going to have to set up some ground rules, I can’t have you going through my head all […]
The Dog (pt 1)
The doorbell rang as if it were any other day a doorbell may ring, only this wasn’t any other day. She opened the door to see a rather large rottweiler sitting obediently with what almost appeared to be a smile on his face. There was a message on a piece of paper rolled up and tucked […]
Management Update: Hello!
If this was a completely ridiculous alternate reality, this monkey here would also talk to our heroine. At the very least he would say “hello!” But this is a wooden monkey, and some things are “normal” in our heroine’s life, and this is one of them. Her vintage wooden monkey would not be speaking to her […]
Worm Guy and his new gift
She’d had a long day accomplishing a whole lot of nothing when she heard the news that Worm Guy (yes, a Bug) had gone to visit the Art Teacher. The Art Teacher said he’d been behaving himself and she even had time to crochet him a poncho. (She wondered how long it would take to crochet […]
The teacher has the key
It was raining hard, that much was obvious by the sound. The flash of lightening and accompanying rumble of thunder added a touch of drama that all good storms needed. Now all that was needed was a worm in a raincoat. Enter the Worm Guy in a yellow raincoat. The Worm Guy (yes, a bug) stood […]
A Worm In Ruffles
She was just settling down after that dreadful trip to the mall when she heard what sounded like a pebble thrown at the window. She glanced over to see her friend the worm guy (yes, a bug) and he was wearing, his usual cowboy hat and a green plaid shirt with ruffles. “Nice dress you […]
Worm guy pays another visit
She was already having quite the day. Confetti flying all around she thought…no, that wasn’t it either. She still searched for the perfect analogy to describe her brain in this state but that wasn’t it. She got up to open the window and get some air when she was startled once again by the little […]
