Not A Footrest

The Little Prince and Hu-Dad are battling for space under the desk. Typhoon warns he is not a footrest.

Watch it! I am not a footrest.
Watch it! I am not a footrest.

His Royal Highness Little Prince Typhoon Phooey has a few “quirks.” If you attempt to brush him, he screams. If you are one minute late responding to his demands, he pouts. If meals are not to his satisfaction, he fasts. And if you touch him, he grumbles. This last one is a wee bit of a problem since Typhoon’s favorite napping spot is under Hu-Dad’s desk. The Little Curmudgeon’s glare is a reminder that he is not a footrest.

    There is plenty of room for Hu-dad to be comfortable and the Prince to be comfortable. Don’t you know we are their servants and here to make them happy not us.

      Thanks for letting me know. Our newsletter service is showing your email was sent, but lots of things can go wrong after that. Check your spam folder and see if the gremlins sent it there.

      I send test emails to all the various email providers and the email box I have with the same service as you got it this morning. That’s why I’m guessing the spam folder, though other things can happen.

      The really scary news is we will be changing newsletter services shortly. That’s always fun because there are always hiccups.
