[Dailydrool] The World According to Norm - The Man in the Closet

[Sandi Wittenberg]

It's me again - Norm!

Mom has been working upstairs in her "crap" room - you know . the room where
her computer is, where she does her sewing and does her craps . like making
stuff craps.  So, today, I decided it was time for me to go see what she has
been doing up there.  In stealth basset mode, I tippie-toed up the stairs
very quietly - not easy because the steps are hardwood and I am due for a
pedicure.  I checked out the grandkids bedroom first . everything was in
order there . although I did find an astronaut helmet under the bed.   Then
I explored the living room . no stray puzzle pieces laying around - shucks!
Those are nice and crunchy!  Moving right along . I investigated the
bathroom (that is not the same as the crap room!) - always a good place for
wayward tissues and combs to chew on.  Man - nothing there either - looks
like Dad Mr. White Glove has been in there!  Now on to the crap room - WHOA!
That was the mother lode!  There was stuff all over - both sewing machines
were out - some glue guns were on the table - fuzzy stuff all over the floor
- TWO full waste baskets with paper and fabric!  I was just checking things
out and in full sniff mode and I sensed something behind me.  My first
thought was "oh no!  Mom caught me!"  so I turned around, wagging my tail
and looking innocent, and I almost fainted!  There was a MAN IN THE CLOSET!
I mean it - A MAN IN THE CLOSET!  I immediately went into full protective
attack basset mode - barking the big boy bark - jumping around - barking
some more - but the man wouldn't move.  I had no choice - I had to attack
him!  Then . you aren't going to believe it . he fell over on me!  About
scared the stuffin' out of me.  About that time, Mom came to my rescue and
about laughed herself silly.  She kept saying - it is just a cardboard Kenny
Chesney!  She called me a chicken liver - boy!  He sure looked real to me!
I think you all ought to ask her how and why Kenny Chesney got in her
closet.

Drools to ya!
