A Masterpiece

Ta-da! My Halloween jack-o-lantern masterpiece is complete. Not only was I blessed with great looks, but I’ve just tapped into a new talent... pumpkin carving. And the wonderful thing is that I’ve got Parker to do all the gross stuff and the grunt work. He removed all the pumpkin guts and was in charge of cleaning up all the little chunks of pumpkin shell as I toiled away, channeling my inner Michelangelo. Now wait a minute, don’t get me wrong – I am utterly fabulous, but I’m no Michelangelo. So right now, Parker’s in the kitchen rinsing the pumpkin seeds and salting them. Mom won’t trust him with the oven, so she’ll have to roast the seeds for us. Yum! Anyway, I’m thinking I’ll put my masterpiece outside by the front door and once it rots, I’ll stuff it with poop from my litter box and have Rufus drop it from a tree onto the white trash neighbor’s truck. Treats for me, tricks for them!
