looks over down at the river, says "What a drop"
No tame dog is gonna take my bone" o/`

With apologies and appropriate credit to Ursula LeGuin and her short story, Buffalo GalsIf you've never had a trickster as your totem, thank your lucky stars. It's hard enough in

LMAO! I should be in bed, but stayed to read...m'darlin', you made me laugh so hard...thank you!!!

You're welcome! The sad part is, those conversations actually took place. I'm afraid I don't have good control over my totem and sometimes things get a little weird. (Didn't actually bite the doc, though, that would have been bad form).

[sweeny_todd]

ahaha! poor little lost farts. That was pretty sweet ^_^

[walkertxkitty]

*grins* You'd be surprised what goes randomly through one's head during a car ride. The initial intent was to fart in the truck and then leave it there to 'age' without her knowing it, but she caught me. Oops!

[standgale]

That, is an unusual and intriguing story. I like it!

[walkertxkitty]

The bad part is, those are actual conversations. Fart humor is a premium thing in our household because I live with a bunch of literary nuts who have read Chaucer and a bunch of geeks who have seen South Park and The Simpsons. It makes quite a combination.

[walkertxkitty]

Obviously, I don't quite have control of the totem yet. You wouldn't ordinarily hear a conversation about turds and fart-children out of MY mouth!

[just_the_ash]

You're both trying to make me take my morning caffeine via inhalation!

[walkertxkitty]

We were just discussing that and hoping that no one would be drinking coffee while reading either of our entries. Oops, sorry about that!
