Rat
January 25th, 2009Yesterday was my friend’s son’s Birthday.
The boy’s pet rat was playing around while
I visited with the Birthday Boy’s Mother.
I drew a picture of the rat for him to come
home to:
Then his Mother said, “What about his
younger sister? Will you draw one for
her too? So I drew this:
And I entertained my friend with a picture
for her, too. (She was the one who pointed
out this rat’s interesting attribute):
I still felt like drawing when she went to
bring the rat back upstairs. I was sitting
in their den - A fireplace flanked by her
husband’s preserved animals which everybody
has to live with. These dead animals which
seem to have Always been there. So I drew
a picture of the racoon for the Birthday Boy too:
BTW, can you tell what movie I’m trying to make
myself watch this morning:
