Ever The Dreamer…

Daily writing prompt
What was the last thing you did for play or fun?

It just so happens that I spent all day yesterday playing an online game… but that’s not actually the last fun thing I did for fun or play. The funny thing is though, whenever I play a game for numerous consecutive hours in a single day, I’m guaranteed some crazy dreamtime.

So…. the last thing I did for play or fun ended up being the dream I had last night.

All night long I dreamt of either hunting in the forest, or working on the plans for my inn/cottage. Hopefully, we’re about to begin the build today, in-game.

I want it to have the kitchen out behind the inn, so there won’t be any grease fires to cause a catastrophe. It’s right on the edge of the wood, resting beside a river that’s not too far from our clan.

I want the lobby, dining room and hearth on the main floor, obviously, but there will be spacious rooms to rent on the upper floors. There will be a covered outdoor deck that extends about ten feet over the river. This way, we can build some of the guest rooms out over the water.

Hey… the prompt asked! I am just acquiescing to their request, which required giving you some information, making it worth your while to read my response.

Before you start thinking that I’m just goofing off and ignoring my holiday duties, fear not! I’ve already finished preparing your gifts, err… coal… ya, coal for your stockings.

Oh yeah, I almost forgot… I dreamt of cookies, too…

Thursday Thinking…

I couldn’t do it… I just couldn’t!

Don’t judge…

It isn’t my fault…

They’re far too soft and fluffy…

And I accidentally got high on all the puppy breath…

Before I knew what happened…

They both picked me…

SoI say, if ya can’t beat em, join em! 

Besides, the lobby has plenty of room, and you all can help with walks and weekend play dates, right!?!?

I just knew you’d agree…

Drum roll, please…

(She taps her Magic Microphone several times for a sound check)

Without further ado, I would like to announce the official welcome of Journey With Me’s first official furry greeters,

The wild and sassy one… (little big pants) Miss Bailey,

And her brother Gabriel (the quiet one), our furry kibble connessuer…

This should keep me busy for a good bit…

We shall see, we shall see!

Wednesday Words…

Don’t forget to have your picture taken with Eustace… he’s down in the lobby right now, in case you hadn’t already noticed him as you came in this morning. Poor camel, bless his heart, he’ll need the entire month of January to work off the after-effects of that candy cane infusion.

Tuesday Tinkering…

You know how I’ve been going on about puppies? Well, it suddenly occurred to me that even if I can’t have an actual puppy at the moment, what I can do is create a virtual one… why not, right?!

No need to clean up poo doo, no complaints from the neighbors, and no weighty expenses for all its needs!

So, I thought you might join me in the creation of our lobby’s first furry version of a greeter… you know, like Walmart but better!

Anyways, the first thing one should consider is the look of said greeter. I know that I want a miniature Dachshund of the silky variety…

And yes… it should be oh so fluffy! I would love the color to be that of the creamy vanilla kind, beings that I love coffee and all.

Ok… perfect!

Honestly, I wouldn’t even mind if there were some accent colors…

That’s awful cute, don’t ya think?

Now comes the hard part! Remember how I said that if I were to have a boy, his name could be Gabriel, and if it were a girl, I could call her Bailey? This is the part where we have to choose a boy or a girl…. ughghghghghgh… so hard!

I’m sort of stuck here, folks! I would honestly love to hear your opinions on our choice here, so I can’t move forward until that has been determined.

I will say that if it is a girl, she will have her own little blog entries’ called Bailey’s Daily (puppy fashion critic)…

And if we were to choose a boy, then he would have his little blurbs called Gabe’s Flav’s (puppy food critic)…

Until we make a final decision, I shall be spending some play time with them both… just to be fair.

Seriously, just to be fair…

I’m doing this for you, not me…

The things I’m willing to do for this community… I sure hope everyone knows how much I’m willing do… the sacrifice… the agony of effort… sheesh!

I’m Lazy…

My Chica’s daughter got a puppy, and I’m getting my flurby fix this morning. 

It has been confirmed, ladies and gents… my future fur baby needs to be a silky Dachshund,  preferably a champagne cream color!

If it’s a girl, I could name her Bailey,

and if it’s a boy, I could name him Gabriel…

yup!  I know it’ll be a while yet still, but a girl can dream.

10…

It has begun…  the count down til Christmas Eve, that is.

Since nobody sent me any specific wish lists, the window of selections has now closed!

Now is my chance to have fun, as your opportunity to control my virtual holiday imagination has expired.

Were you naughty or nice this last year?  Hmmmmmm…. 

What might she possibly be planning to put in my stocking, you will be asking yourselves?

All you can do now is hope that you know me as well as you think you do… don’t blame me… you’ve tied my hands here…  I’ll not accept responsibility for what follows over the next 10 days!

It’s not my fault at all!

10… tick tock, tick tock!

Relax! You can trust me, really you can…

maybe…
