You are truly living my dream life! I’ve always wanted a Japanese scalp treatment. I’ve also always wanted to be a wood elf and find mysterious things on my travels. Thankfully we’re related so I can assume (and hope with fingers tightly crossed) that I’ll grow up to be just like you. As they say, I can see my future, and it is bright!

I can get you the treatment! And you’ve grow up to be way better than me already ❤️

Things I find in the forest, skunks, rattlesnakes. Never anything interesting. Are you sure you in the forest you aren’t in one of those psychological experiments … which the dog is trying to warn you about? Better give the dog some bacon as a reward.

Steaming scalps.. Humm.. is that like shrunken heads from cannibalism?

Ewww - yes! Just like those scalps!

You have a very valid point, Al. And that wouldn’t surprise me in the slightest. If I disappear, keep looking. 👀

a Leshy!!! a Leshy is so cool, it looks so cool, a Leahy is like if Falkor was a Tolkien character.

Boots the Boggart, he was Bilbo Baggins's cousin who got left behind a grade and had to retake kindergarten with Gollum.

what's your favorite Talking Heads song, mah dahlin?

have you been in a Hot Springs in Tokyo? that's the only way to feel like you're truly inside an anime :)

When I lived in Scotland many years ago now, a bouncer outside of what I later learned was a “knocking shop” invited me in. When I declined, he said, “Away wit ye and boil yer heed ye damned Yank!” And all these many years later I learn that was a service offered. You live, and you learn.

Haha! That lovely Scottish welcome! I don’t think theirs is as nice as the Japanese one but at least you had the chance to escape!

I wasn't forced to eat haggis - yes, it could have been worse.

Pah! All I ever find in the woods are drug dealers and other ne'er-do-wells.

Oh... and money. Seventeen quid, so far.

Jules Smith's avatar

Bloody hell! Seventeen quid’s alright! Swap?

I’m on the road to nowhere… I’d love to be on the road to a hot springs spa in Tokyo dressed as a Leshy so I could jump in with all the slippery people. That’d be a once in a lifetime thing, wouldn’t it! *)
