SPAL: Hi, nice people. Hope everyone is having a great week. Everything is great when my tummy’s getting rubbed.
HB: Yeah. Life is great when there’s plenty of nosh and belly rubs and the back of a sofa to lay on.
SPAL: The last time we posted, someone left us a compliment.
HB: Yeah. But didn’t she refer to us as dogs.
SPAL: She did. But it was a nice compliment.
HB: Wasn’t it Joyce Lansky over at Catch My Words?
SPAL: Yeah. She can’t understand why we feel dog is a bad word.
HB: Well, why do we?
SPAL: There’s a quote people like to say: It’s a dog eat, dog world.
HB: So.
SPAL: It doesn’t sound nice. According to Mummsy it’s the two-legged peeps that practice this in business.
HB: Then how come peeps don’t say: It’s a two-legged eat, two-legged world.
SPAL: Because according to Mummsy, most two-legged peeps don’t like to take responsibility for their negative ways.
HB: Oh.
SPAL: The two-legged peeps would be so much happier if they were like us fur-peeps who just want to love and be loved.
HB: Yeah.
SPAL: Here’s a quote for everyone to remember. “Outside of a dog, a book is man's best friend. Inside of a dog it's too dark to read.” Groucho Marx
HB: We’re like books? ***scratches his head***
SPAL: I guess. If you think about it, Mummsy usually has a book, or one of us in her lap or her lap desk to work on her MS.
HB: Yeah. She does.***rolls over onto his back*** Hey! Isn’t this the last week Daddy-O has chemo.
SPAL: Thank God, yes.
HB: And didn’t Mummsy’s novel, Secondhand Shoes, get chosen to be in the The eFestival of Words Nomination Awards?
SPAL: Yes. It did. Peeps can click this link to go see.
HB: And isn’t Mummsy getting ready to release two of her short stories?
SPAL: Yup. The Partner’s Progeny and Samah Ronit. The cover is almost tweaked for one. She’ll be doing a cover reveal soon.
HB: What about Mummy’s next novel, Killer Stilettos?
SPAL: It should be completely drafted by June 1st.
HB: I’m so excited. ***he rolls over and gets on all fours***
SPAL: Just make sure you don’t whiz on me. Anyway, nice people remember to get you bellies rubbed and to love everybody.
HB: Yeah.
Lots of licks,
Sir Poops and Hair Ball
