176 Write a story about a character who wants to change something about themselves

** My first attempt at Children’s Lit**

Once upon a time, there was a little doggie named Shep. He was part Chihuahua  and part rat terrier. He weighed about 10 pounds.  Shep was a service dog which means he helped his owner. He let his owner pet him when she was ill and he guided her home  or got her help when she needed it.

Shep loved  his owner and his job very much. There was just one thing he wished. He wished to be big and strong  like  other dogs he saw. When Shep would see a bigger dog or a squirrel, he would dig and scratch with his feet trying to look tough but the squirrels  and dogs just laughed at him. When Shep slept, he dreamed he was a big dog and growled in his sleep.

Finally, one night Shep saw a shooting start. OH Please make me big he wished. The next morning Shep awoke and couldn’t believe himself. He was a beefy 45 pounds of pure muscle,  Now I can chase those squirrels He was so  happy.

Soon, his owner came in for a nap. Shep tried to jump on the bed in his usual spot. “No,  Shep you’re too big.” his owner told him. Shep was a bit sad. Next it was time for breakfast. Shep was very hungry in his new big size. When he went to eat, the food tasted weird. “How do you like your new big dog food?” His owner asked. Shep didn’t like it at all. He wanted his small dog food. Next, it was time for a walk. Shep saw the squirrels. He was finally going to get them! He growled a big growl and scratched his feet and the squirrels began to run away. Shep started to chase them but because he had more weight, he couldn’t run as fast

Shep thought being a big dog was not what he expected. He realized being a small dog  has its advantages too  So that night, on a shooting star he wished to be back to normal. From then on, he was a grateful puppy and  appreciated everything he had.

262 We Were Running Low on Canned Food and Drinking Water

It was a freak phenomenon the “tropical” typhoon hit off the coast of lake Michigan. The swells ran over 100 miles high. Rain poured down in  droves. It was a hard unending rain like an attack of killer bees. They evacuated the immediate outskirts of the storm radius but, no one thought the  waves would come so far off the coastline. We were hunkered down in the closet under the stairs. Waves completely covered the top of  you house. Alligators and Jelly fish were floating by. Apparently since the global climate change, tropical animals had begun to settle in the warmer waters of Lake Michigan.

We were running low on canned food and drinking water so my wife managed to rope a  salmon with a clothes line and used a wire hangar to filet the delicacy. I hate sushi, but I choked it down the best I could.the closet was rapidly filling and soon, we were waist deep in water. That’s when the hammerhead shark  drifted in. My wife wrestled the shark by jumping on its back and riding it rodeo style. It reared its head back and bared its teeth. I took the pliers from the tool box that we stored in the closet and removed the shark’s teethe one by one . “That’s  something for the smashbook” I panted. “Honey , I hate to say this but I think your smashbook’s gone bye-bye,” She replied.

“I wish we had bought that rental insurance now!” I screamed above the noise.  Suddenly I heard the jingle Nationwide is on your side. I slowly opened my eyes The announcer said We will return to Sharknado momentarily. Darn! I guess I fell asleep in front of the TV again.

My Evil Alter Ego

My secret identity in the Sims  is Mrs_Funky . Mrs_Funky is evil to the core.  Her other traits are intelligent, book-worm, computer whiz, and daredevil. She has black hair with red thunder bolts like the bride of Frankenstein, Her skin is white and pasty and she wears a black teddy with a black silk robe.

She is an inventor by trade and has managed to produce and market spring dog toys. Once when she was experimenting, she detonated her bed while her husband, Frank N Stein was in it. Fortunately the firefighters arrived quickly and he was saved. She has four children one pale white and three green triplets.

In true evil Sim fashion, she trolls on forums. Sometimes she hacks into the AARP site with live porn filmed in local nursing homes. She is the founding member and president of the bipolar disorder misnomer foundation, a radical fringe group that  trolls on bipolar forums and chat rooms claiming that  bipolar disorder stole the acronym bp from blood pressure and the latter is the only true meaning.  She under-minds the kleptomaniac society by  donating prize money for contests which reward the theft of rare or precious items. She is the lead mastermind behind the Suckers for suckers child “development” movement which buys large suckers to give to infants and toddlers and once they have had a taste of that  sweet nectar, tears it away from them literally stealing candy from a baby. She does this  with her own children daily  She is also very rude and inconsiderate, asking portly people if they want to play “fatty cakes” and short people when they are going to grow up.

One day  Mrs_Funky was at an inventors’ convention where she met a vampire named Vladimir. She convinced him to hack into the New York Stock Exchange using the “motherlode” code to perform a hostile takeover of the three biggest American banks netting them millions. Vladimir was afraid Mrs_Funky would get greedy for  his half too and turn him in so he did a vampire brain washing trick called glamoring  which made her forget all her crimes. She lives happily evil after n a beach in cabo san luca with her husband and kids
