Just Made It Up – Conversations with the Pack

I am Doodlebug, King of the Olde English Bulldogges.

Sweetie: What was all that on the Big Picture Box last night, Lady Human? It was scary.

Me: Oh, that was just a story somebody made up.

Doodlebug: Made up?

Me: Yeah. Imagined. It didn’t happen in real life. They just made it look as though it did.

Doodlebug: Why ever would a human do that?

Me: Imagination is built into us by the Creator. You have it, too. Like when y’all dream. You’re asleep, but you’re barking and running. And the whole time, you’re just laying there on your bed. Well, humans dream, too, asleep and awake.

Sweetie: Like when Doodlebug makes up that he’s the King of the Olde English Bulldogges, whoever they are.

MoonCat: Watch out. Don’t go there.

Doodlebug Dreaming – Conversations with the Pack

I am Doodlebug, King of the Olde English Bulldogges. Hold up there…Stop in the name of the bulldog law…Wub wub wub..wub…

Sweetie: Lady Human! Come quick! Doodlebug has plumb lost his mind and he didn’t have much to spare.

Me: No! He’s just dreaming. See! He’s asleep.

MoonCat: Meow. A bulldog waggling his feet and barking while asleep does not sound sane to me. A cat would never make such an undignified display.

Doodlebug: What? What’s going on? Where am I?

Me: You’re here at home with us. You’re fine. You were just having a dream.

Doodlebug: But what about all that…and all those…and that big….Where did that all go?

Me: Just back into dreamland for now.

Doodlebug: Well, those dream dogs that were trying to eat my dream mountain of dream food better stay in dreamland if they know what’s good for them! I’ll go back for the food later.
