So I just tried to submit this comment as simply “Oh, dear.” and was told by wordpress that the comment was too short and I should “please go back and try again”. I’m being critiqued by a blogging software? It’s like contest feedback, except with a slightly earnest, superior tone. Kind of like a PTA mom at a Halloween party.
In a Twilight-Zone level role reversal, I said it was obviously ninja assassin squirrels fighting, and my husband said the wind probably blew it out of a tree.
I write to music. Always. Hear what I'm listening to right this very minute as I write. You can listen to what I was listening to when I wrote certain books and stories. And, if you like a song, please purchase it from your favorite retailer so you can support the artist — because downloading music without paying for it is as douchey as pirating ebooks!

@Dana: It wasn’t my bed. Thank goodness. It was my kid’s bed.

I still can’t believe that happened O_o
Did you ever figure out how/why the squirrel died/got in there?

@limecello: It came in through the window, must’ve been at top speed because it broke through two panes of glass and a screen!

I trust this will now be long enough. Carry on.

I had to fish one out of the pool one day. I really felt bad, because I had seen him near the edge but had assumed he would no better.
Guess not.
