Monday, June 09, 2003word challenge: enamored, yellow snow, celebration
Morey loved yellow snow. He lived for the days when he could walk through the streets of his village and mark the spots where the dogs had paused. Morey hated dogs, you see. He remembered every time a dog had growled at him, or sniffed at him ~ which made him quiver with distaste. He so loved spotting yellow snow that several people had accused him of being enamored with the sight of it.
Morey waited patiently, making his map, marking it with all the spots where the dogs had soiled the pristine white of the snow. He loved winter, tracking the furry buggers was so much harder in the summer. He knew that at some point, he would make use of this map. He planned his revenge every day, every time he stepped in doggie doo, every time one of them sniffed his leg, or was presented to him to be petted. He would place poison along the route of their walks, leaving something that would be activated when they did the dirty and discolored the snow. He would rid the town of the vermin, he would be a hero.
Morey had planned the celebration for weeks. He rented a hall and hired a band. He invited all his friends, without telling them what the party was all about. He bought the poison and placed it all along the route marked out on his map. He went to bed with a smile on his face, knowing that the next day, the town would be dogless and he would be the hero.
However, his plan was foiled. Batman swooped down and washed all the poison away, saving all the dogs. Morey's friends decided to celebrate anyway, since the hall was rented and the band was hired. Alas, poor Morey was in prison. He wasn't awfully sad, though ~ there are no dogs in jail.
