Did you know that goats are the second most likely domesticated animal to revert back to their wild ways? Cats are first, of course, but I thought it was interesting that goats came after that. I would never have guessed. They're so cuddly! Who knew that they could turn on you in an instant! After reading Call of the Wild, I would have thought dogs would be second. And in case you are wondering, I hate Jack London. His writing drives me crazy. Although, I do have a funny Jack London story, which I will allow myself to write, no matter how irrelevant it is. We were getting ready to read one of his books in English once, and we were watching a documentary on him before we began reading. So out teacher asked us to guess what we thought his life was like, and who he was, or something like that. So I said that I thought that he was probably a hobo. And guess what? He was a hobo! Hilarious!
Anyways, back to the point of the post. That point is that Walnut is awesome. But, you may be saying, not only is that a very vague point, it is also the point of almost every post you write! And you would be correct. But I shall specify. Walnut is awesome because I think he's starting to get the hang of being walked on a leash, meaning that I will be able to do very well when I show him. Okay, 'getting the hang' may not be the right phrase...Maybe 'moving past the phase of just laying on the ground while I try to drag him along'.
In any case, I am so going to win the costume class. We're both dressing up as Newsies. You know, the street urchin children who sell newspapers on street corners? It'll be awesome. We both have newsie caps, and we'll wear big scarves, and vests, and I'll have boots and some of those gloves with the fingers cut off, and a big stack of newspaper tied together with twine. And I'll figure out a way to give him a little pack of newspapers on his back. Here, I'll photoshop a picture of him to include his costume, just to give you an idea:
Isn't it adorable?!!!! So, I'll post a picture of the actual costume when I finish it.
