Sad to say, Miss Lambie met a tragic end this morning. Her owner, whose name is Reiko but should be Chuy (pronounced “chewy” for those unfamiliar), de-squeaked the poor little toy and then disemboweled the stuffing across the living room.
Appropriately, today’s musical interlude is from a favorite band, Queen. Here is their 1980 rendition of Another One Bites The Dust a song that I want played at my funeral. Yes, I’m strange.
You may not know, and you probably don’t care, that the roots of that expression – Another One Bites The Dust – can be traced to The Bible, specifically Psalm 72:9.
I can only imagine Reiko-chan was channeling that great toy de-squeaker Chester, a well known toy destroying pup owned by my good friend and fellow blogger Marthadillo.
This was not Reiko’s first act of destruction today. She chewed up a seasonal dried flower arrangement, apparently unimpressed by the cunning blend of Autumn colors. Then, she ate through a plastic photo display easel.
All of this was done while I was at 24 Hour Fitness regretting yesterday’s culinary choices.
The Hedgehogs are still intact as is Rainbow Bone but I think I need to replace Lambie who was her favorite stuffie despite evidence to the contrary. Maybe I’ll add a new toy as an outlet for her otherwise repressed toy aggression.
OK, as to the polls. You, the supporters of this ridiculous blog have spoken. Get rid of the snow. Poof! it’s gone. Refer to the heroine of these silly dog tales as a MauZer with a “Z.”
These were the overwhelming preferences. So say you. So be it.
I’m off to PetSmart; hopefully, there’s an after Christmas sale on lambies.
Love to hear from ya
