My Pet Snake

We kind of have a deficiency of readers and writers right now, because everybody's either doing something, so they can't write, or doing nothing, so they have nothing to tell. I fall into the second category. So, I'll have to make do with a story from my own head.

My cousin just got a dog (which by the way is really cute) and that no doubt inspired this dream I had last week:

We had this pet snake. It was about two and a half feet long, and very skinny (maybe half and inch wide), and it was red. The strangest thing was that it was like a dog. We kept it on a leash and would take it for walks. I would hold its leash and I would say "roll up" and the snake would lift its head and its tail so they touched, forming itself into a loop. I would then say "jump" and the hoop of a snake would bounce. Then it would go back to normal and I would pet its head and say "good boy!"

(Can you believe how funny and irrational we are when we're asleep?) By the way, I discovered an interesting website for all you writers out there, called WEbook (http://www.webook.com/). It's this site where you can put your writing and get feedback, and comment on other people's writing, plus the site publishes some people's stuff every so often.

So long and thanks for all the fish,
Rebecca

I find this absolutely amazing. I was just freaking out because my step-cousin's boyfriend didn't get the same reference! Let me back up. At my step-mom's family reunion this summer her niece's boyfriend, who is a professional chef, cooked this stunning trout over the campfire on the night we were to leave. As we headed out I of course said to him...well, you can guess what I said. AND HE DIDN'T GET IT. So thanks to all of you who read Adams. As a side note, I just found out that me and my friend both have recurring zombie dreams and I feature often in hers. Odd, no?

:) Yeah, that is odd.
