Trixie’s Frozen Brain

What is with this climate? Now I know why they got fur for my fur. It’s c-c-c-c-c-c-c-cold up here! No wonder the trees fall apart and leave their leaves on the ground. Brrr! And now, the ground is covered in this white stuff. She keeps saying, “This is snow! This is snow!” I finally find …

Trixter’s In A Winter Wonderland

Man, it’s been a while since I’ve written about Trixie. Let’s fix that. I don’t think Trixie quite knows what to do with all this snow. The first time she saw it, it was slippery, and she tried to fly at her regular summer pace, and quickly realized that was not a safe plan. She …

If You’re Reading This, My Net’s Up!

There were a few things floating around in my head, and I thought maybe I should write them down before a monster starts to develop, so off we go. I finally figured out what that singing alphabet commercial was all about. It wasn’t an attempt at improving literacy. Why would I think such a thing? …
