Zounds! 'Scaped!
POST-POSTED for 15 JULY 2007
um... yeah... so there haven't been any river posts of late for good reason: back in july, he and his little concubine, to use a completely inappropriate metaphor, jumped ship.
he was always an an acrobatic little feller, leaping to the terrarium lid and clinging on upside down, but it seems that once we emplaced the habitrail components inside, he was given enough of a platform to jar the lid, well, ajar. i returned to my office one morning to find him long gone, his fewmets cold as 120 degrees (the fact that he was ever the predator as opposed to the prey notwithstanding). [editor's note: withhold all comments about fewmets pertaining specifically to dragons; i'll be damned if river produced normal mouse droppings. in hindsight, i ought to have saved them: they'd've probably cured cancer. or cowardice.]
perhaps it's for the best; my little mononoke friend as like as not is probably largely responsible for the decrease in violence in our region (it was not lost upon me that his escape perfectly coincided with the positive developments).
he shall ever be missed, and will always have a little place in my heart--a place that he chewed out for himself with his little demon fangs.
