decorating

Bo and Willie visited for a sleepover after Labor Day. They came back again the next weekend while I made a trip to grandma's. I saw a sign for Shakespeare in Manhattan so I made a little detour on the way home. I thought I knew where I was going, but Jackie Robinson chewed me up and spit me out somewhere in Brooklyn.

I found a navigator in a bar full of monsters and soon enough we found ourselves underground negotiating with Cerberus. The dogs smelled one of their own inside so they offered what tricks they had to get by. They found him lying on the riverside and called out to the ferryman to broker a deal with him too, three bones for another day in the sun. Content with the terms the wolves howled for the good boy, who flew off with his treat.

We sailed on to heckle the bard, who guided us to a sphinx whose riddle I couldn't solve. Nearly mad with hunger the navigator sniffed us out a slice of pizza. As I finished my last bite, I saw in the grease on the paper plate the way home. I made it back just in time for Teemo's ninth birthday! He got cake and I got a tattoo. The seasons are changing and I needed a change of scenery. So I painted the site. And I built a hallway to hang some pictures.
