Carol and Harry Go to the Cinema
It was a cold and rainy evening in Vancouver – the perfect kind of night for just staying home and nursing a cup of hot chocolate with one’s slippered feet up on a soft, cozy ottoman in front of a crackling fireplace or watching a Hallmark Christmas television show or something. But, even though the weather outside was bordering on frightful, Harry suggested to his partner-in-sublime, Carol, that perhaps they should venture out into this miserable nocturne for a hardy adventure and head to a movie at the cinema. Surprisingly, Carol thought the suggestion to be of honor and heart and thus she agreed. So then – a movie it was to be.

The Unfortunate Tale of a Now Extinct Animal
"Aww, come on!" Noah moaned as he let go of the rope to quickly snatch together his robe that just went RIPPP. His struggle was evident in his frustration. Loading animals two-by-two into an ark had been challenging. The last pair had proven the most difficult—the Farknuckle. A rare breed that's now extinct. You'll soon see why.

Do My Bidding, Mosquito Army!
I LOVE My Forest. The emerald sky where I live is pierced with shades of blue beyond. Birds sing their lewd songs to each other during the spring and scream at their children during the summer creating a cacophony of sounds that we humans describe as beautiful. Fireflies light up our summer and autumn nights with flickering and fluttering eloquence, and an opossum has been adopted as a nocturnal snuggle/dinner buddy by the colony of rescue cats that I hold responsibility over and has even on occasion let me run my fingers gently over its back side (before saying: "Okay. That's enough, friend" by politely walking away). And the cicadas sing us to sleep every night. It's peaceful, it's quiet, no noisy human interference, and you can see the stars for miles. And come morning, (especially in the cooler months when the morning fog lifts off the ground in opalescent swirls of cloud low to the ground) we are greeted by little families of deer.
