I remember it just like it was yesterday. The kitten jumped up and down, such a cute ball of fur. He made me giggle, that fluffy little kitten.
I chortled with gleeful anticipation:
"Mommy can we keep him. please, please, please. I'll feed him and clean him and teach him tricks. I'll call him Mittens--and I'll love him forever--can we keep him, please?"
"No, we can't keep him. I don't even want you, let alone a damn cat, you miserable, insufferable son of Satan!"
Yes, I remember it just like it was yesterday, except yesterday I spent the entire day eyeing my neighbor's lawn jockey. You mark my words, as God is my witness, "I will have that lawn jockey...it will be mine!"

Childhood trauma

LOL, I still have that skinning story in my "Shocking Shorts" collection...safely hidden away.
I always liked this silly little ditty. Yeah, where did my lame humor go?

Now I know who stole my lawn jockey! Did your ficticious flamingos need company?
I can see why you would be proud to have your name attached to this profound literary achievement.
