Thursday – A Little Personal – Twiggy and Lucy Discuss Characters

~ John W. Howell

“Remember two weeks ago when you thought about being a werewolf, Little One?”

“Sure, I remember. I know there were a lot of comments about it from folks.”

“Are you still considering that option?”

“You know there are so many downsides I’ve pretty much decided not to be a werewolf.”

“What are you considering now. You know we can’t play until you decide on what you are going to be.”

“This is a decision that can’t be rushed. It has monumental import on how we go forward.”

“Okay, but maybe you are putting a little too much thought into the whole thing.”

“Can you imagine coming after a wildebeest with the wrong animal?”

“I thought the puma was perfect.”

“Hold on. I think I’m picking up the scent of a puma right now.”

“Excuse me while I continue my stroll. Puma scent indeed.”

“I’m telling you. There has been a puma through here this morning.”

“Why don’t you just give in and keep your puma alter ego.”

“But a puma is a cat. You even said so.”

“But think of how powerful the puma is. Who cares if it is a cat. It is just play time anyway.”

“Playtime? I’m serious. One has been lurking here, just waiting to pounce on an unsuspecting Wildebeest.

“So you are going to be a puma again. Right?”

“The puna turns its back on the slow-moving Wildebeest, knowing the move will confuse the poor dumb animal.”

“I’ll take that as a yes.”

  5. Frankly, I appreciate all the thought Twiggy is putting into this. A puma is a cat, a big one who could have her for lunch, but be that as it may…it’s in the cat family, and a girl had her standards after all.

    May I suggest a fox, which she is anyway, she’s so attractive and well-groomed, and foxes are very foxy and could handle a wildebeest…wrap one around its little claw. Maybe you’ll mention it. 🙂

    1. I will certainly mention it and thank you, Susannah for the suggestion. She knows about foxes so I have to wonder why she didn’t think of it. I think she might be going for massive. 😁

  7. The girls are hilarious as usual. Maybe Twiggy could be a a coyote? I’m sure you have some around. They are brave around here – two walked right through our neighbor’s yard in broad daylight one day (at our old house, which was in the woods.)

  9. This is hilarious! This line from Twiggy is just priceless: “This is a decision that can’t be rushed. It has monumental import on how we go forward.” Ya gotta love a self-important canine!

  14. I always look forward to the interactions between these two girls! Whatever Twiggy chooses to be won’t change the outcome, I’m afraid. Fun-time for all involved!

  18. Twiggy cracks me up! Maybe she isn’t really thinking those thoughts, but she must act like she is. I’ve probably said this before, that she reminds me of our youngest cat, Raji. The way he plays and chases after our other cats or even bits of velcro (of all things), his imagination must work overtime 😉

  21. Just remember: it’s a girl’s perogative to change her mind! Beyond that, since Twiggy can’t go shopping for new outfits, maybe she’s just trying on some new identities.

  26. Thanks God, there is no tiger yet…Puma is such a cozy character for the Twiggy Resort…and of a perfect size for the yard. 😂😂😂Thank you for the report, dear John!🍤🍤🍤🍻

  30. Well, Twiggy, look at it. this way!
    Puma is also a famous brand of sneakers. Think of how fast you can run in a “pair of pumas”! That’s 2 pumas in 1.
    No wildebeest can outrun the speed of 2 pumas in one.
    Sorry Lucy!
    I just had to try to end this insanity. If you are worried about the speed of 2 pumas, you could switch to Pronghorn. (second fastest land mammal after cheetah)

    Inform dad:
    The 🐂 however, can only get up to 40 M/P/H. A red 🦊 -f can reach 50M/P/H.
    ⏰⏰ – cl run if wound and 🐂🐂 – en still only run up to 40 M/P/H no matter how many there are.

    1. Dad said all your facts made his head hurt. Thanks for the puma idea. He sends you a big 🤗 and a 😘 though. He is riding an 🧦-s in the rodeo so he is glad about the 40. Sitting up tall on the 🐂 will keep him away from the 🦊 -f.
