What a great little owl!, September 16, 2009

Having received this owl as a gift, I was at first extremely disappointed. It has no educational value, being anatomically incorrect. No owl could fly with such tiny winglets! However, as time went on, its staring eyes grew on me and I found it cute. I even found a name that I thought suited it - Terrence. Now this owl is a fundamental part of my life- I take it to dinner parties, to the park and the pub and it never fails to raise a smile. Although the barman still won't serve him a pint. I thank the day that Terrence came into my life. He has made me and others very happy, even though he does have an evil edge. We will overcome this through therapy I expect and I hope Terrence and I will live together in harmony for many years to come (I do not know the life expectancy of an owl, sorry).
