If He Had Another Brain, It Would Be Lonely


Looks like Chimmie wasn't as worn out as Linda and I thought he was. While I was in the den with Linda for the past 1/2 hour, Chim took his favorite "woobie-bed" out of his sleeping den. It's the bed he thinks is his Mommy, the one he nurses himself to sleep in. We both saw him drag the bed to Linda's room which 99.9% of the time means he is going to nap on it. Not this time. He chewed a small hole in woobie-bed and proceded to strew the stuffing all over the floor! Linda tried to take the bed away and out to the trash. Chimmie had a fit. He actually started barking! (For those of you who know Chim in real life, he does not bark. He kind of whines and yips, but not a full fledged real bark.) What to do? Chim has to have his woobie-bed to sleep at night, but Linda does not want him to spread any more stuffing all over the house. She does not have a big enough sewing kit to fix the hole, and he'll just chew a new one now that he knows he can. How dumb can he be? For now, she stuffed a dish towel down into the hole to try and plug it up. P.S. You can see him in this photo riding around on his coyote. He drags it all over the house with the coyote under him and between his legs. I guess he's showing coyote how proud he is of his bed killing prowess.
