The Damsel in Distress

It’s early one fine morning. The damsel awakens.

A ladylike stretch… a gentle yawn… a smile. Time to start the day.

She skips her way along to the bathing chamber. Humming a little hum, singing a little tune. Though softly, so as not to awaken the slumbering prince.

As she enters the chamber… she gasps! “Oh! What’s this? “

A foul beast awaits her!

There, perched in front of the bathing tub lies the foulest creature she has ever seen! Fangs dripping, mouth foaming, it’s hair grimy and matted… the beast snarls at her. Ready to lunge at any moment to devour her whole!

The damsel races from the room! Barely escaping the beasts clutches.

She gently rouses the sleeping prince. He leaps up from his sleeping pallet! Trumpets blaring! Hands on hips. His smile ever so dashing.

He gallantly exclaims “I shall save you fair damsel! No beast shall harm my fair maiden!”

With the court jester (deaf though he is) in tow… He charges from the room to destroy the horrid beastie.

It growls and he laughs with glee. “Ha ha! Think you to eat my maiden for your morning feast?! Think again!”

He charges forward and… bests the beast!

So they think…

Somehow the beast gets free! And in comes the Jester to celebrate with the happy couple, thinking the coast is clear…

For some odd reason, the beast is afraid of the Jester! And he flees… though is now in hiding to return for his revenge another day… muhaha.... muhahahaha... muhhahahAHAHAHAHAHA!

To be continued…

The real story?

I woke up this morning, growled at my alarm, and snarled “it’s time to get up ALREADY?” I stumbled into the bathroom to find a spider perched on the towel rack. I contemplated leaving it there … I even got another towel. But I had visions of it crawling on me in the shower. So I very carefully, very sweetly, woke Frank up to get it for me… This was all around 6am too. He ever so patiently got up and went into the bathroom to take care of it. Unfortunately, it either got away or another one came out of the woodwork. And Cody (you guessed it, the deaf Jester) decided to bound into the room at that moment so it scurried away before he could get it.

I almost got soap in my eyes keeping one open at all times… just to be sure it didn’t sneak into the shower with me. *insert sheepish grimace here*
