Epilogue’s

There will be a day that comes that we will be finished here on this Earth.  Mom/dad have told me all about the facts of life and what happens with the process.  It can kind of be overwhelming to think of this situation without your loved ones.  But here lately, I’ve been watching a lot of television.  Who would have guess that, right?  I *had* to get caught up from being at Summer Camp with no television for the week.

So as you’ve probably guessed with some of my blogs this week, there is a new trend on epilogues.  Daddy was watching a sports talk show on television and I was curious so I jumped on the sofa to watch it with him.  They were talking about this new trend of epilogues – being as short as possible.  One guy was 93 years young when he passed.  In his epilogue they wrote, “Finally golfed his age.”  Another guy’s epilogue was, “Finally caught the ball”.  See, short and to the point.

I understand new trends.  But in epilogues, could you really go short talking about your life?  So here is my challenge to you my friends, what would YOUR short epilogue be? 

I can’t tell you some of the ones that daddy told me he would write about me.  The man has no filter between his brain and mouth – mom tells him that all of the time – snorts. But I did think of some for me:

Finally found food heaven.

Finally with the ones that passed before me.

Finally has the perfect body.

 

Letter From Summer Camp

Dear Family,

Bacon here from Summer Camp.  This will be my final letter from camp.  WOW – it’s been a long week in a lot of different ways and on the other hoof a very short week.  I really didn’t want to come but I have to admit that it’s been kind of fun.  I’ve met a lot of great friends – Scott and Piper.  You are probably wondering who the heck is Piper.  Piggy blushes… she was the strawberry that I had dinner with the other night.  She’s sweet and cute and all girly and from the south.  She gave me her phone number and address so we can stay in touch ❤ .  Oh, and so did Scott.

Last night was talent night here at camp.  All of us had to come up with some kind of talent for the show.  Heck, I had to think hard.  I mean what talent do I have besides pounding a keyboard.. which I’m pretty good with cause the last time I checked I was up at 25hpm (hooves per minute).  So I thought about biting into an apple and laying on the floor but I’m not sure how many of the gang would get that one.  Then it hit me.  I would dance and sing a song of my people so I did.

“I’m a little teapot short and stout.  Here is my handle and here is my … handle.  Damn I’m a sugar bowl.”

It got a great snort and got me off of the stage quickly.

So today mom/dad are coming to pick me up.  I can’t wait.  I’m so ready to jump in the back of the Smart car and get home to my kingdom… my castle… my own bed… my air conditioning.  aaww – I miss that life.  I hope you’ve been entertained this week and that my little brother Houdini has done a good job on my blog.  I instructed him before I left to take care of everyone.

See you soon my friends!

 

I Need *YOU* – Final Request

I need *YOU* my friends!

NOTE: I have four days still open for October. If you would like to submit a story for one of those days, please send me an email as soon as you can to reserve a day. If you need time to write your story, I will give it to you but please reserve one of these days as soon as you can. I appreciate your help my friends!

Every October on my blog, I do 31 Days of Spook. I started that last year and it was so much fun! Can you imagine, 31 days of scary stories, pictures, places to visit and things that go bump in the night – squeal! People enjoyed my October blog so much that my buddy Easy suggested I do a monthly edition which I do on the 13th of every month called Bacon’s Tales of Terror. Just a little something to keep your interests piqued with the unknown.

This is where I need *YOU*. I’m working on some stories for October. Have you ever visited a haunted location? Do you have strange paranormal happenings in your area or gulp – your house? Do you have a local Bigfoot with a good story? Have you been abducted by aliens?

If so, please put on your writer’s cap and become an Investigator for me. Can you write me a little story of what happened and email it to me at baconthompson@gmail.com I would so ❤ to include it in my 31 Days of Spook in October. And hey, you might even get a scary little badge for your page 🙂 Thanks my friends!!
