74 - Snuggle gnomes.
[email protected]
When I first moved into that motor-home behind
Cliff and his grandma's house, I was always trying
to keep the gnomes out. Always keeping the doors
and windows shut, roof vents, holes in the floor,
all that. But they're sneaky and opportunistic,
and sometimes even clever, and it was always a
losing battle. Nowadays I don't even try
anymore. I just accept that they're going to be in
and around my place. Even when I'm sleeping. When
I wake up there's usually like five or six of
those little things snuggled up next to me or on
top of me. Never the same bunch, they come and
go. It'd probably look pretty adorable, if someone
took a picture. But I'm always trying to clean up
their dirt and mess the next day. That's sort of
less adorable.
