For some reason, I just never woke up this morning. In case you are curious, the Red Writing Hood prompt for today was to write about a first love. I was going to do something creative while writing about Bear, my teddy bear. To this day, I still truly love Bear. He lives on the bureau in my childhood bedroom at my parent's house, since he was too fragile to take to college. Everytime I go home, I walk into my room and give Bear a special little squeeze, and then bring him up to my face where I take in his scent. I've never smelled anything so calming as Bear. It must be all those years of drooling on him in the night, but there is nothing else like Bear. My first friend. My first love.
Look at that. I got a post out after all.
Edited to add: OH. MY. GOD. I just finished typing this post and went over to Red Dress Club to add it to the queue, and saw a little thumbnail of Bear's polar bear twin staring up at me. Snap, Crackle, Pop wrote the same post about the same bear (except mine was brown. back when he still had fur). I swear I had been planning to write about Bear since Wednesday and didn't copy! I swear!
