Day 60: Sticks And Stones

I was forced, so regrettably, out into the open wide and might I say, filthy world today! We, The Shadow In The Corner and I, wanted so very much to watch "Superstar!" starring Molly Shannon and or "Bubbleboy" both movies are the awesomestness, I do believe. Well as I should unfold onto the dirty pavement from The Shadow's car, it lunged with so much force and might, I was struck down and could not think before it had happened and was all over. I know, you are scared. But fear not, I was not about to be evangelized to the Stick order, no way! A stick had lunged forth into the trousers that were supposed to cover and protect.... But its teeth sank deep into my ankle (the right one) and tried so desperately to covert me into Stick-ism. I fought back and grabbed a branch to sweep it away, when I heard it screaming for all its worth... It was Lisa, The Lizard Fairy to the rescue; or more trouble. I could not believe, here, in plain filthy, burning sunshine daylight!?! She flung her body forward onto the stick and pulled it off my leg and I was free! But as I stood up, she began to bounce, yes, on the stick. "Munch on it!" she cried, but as if The Shadow in the Corner or I wanted to eat the stick. Nope, instead we left for the video store in hopeful desire that she and the stick would be gone before our return (and they were).

What A Freckle I Could Be.
