There's a first time for everything

Wednesday I was cleaning someone else's house. You could call it my "job".

This person has a deer head hanging on the wall. It frightens me. I feel like its looking at me.


I noticed that there were a few spider webs between its horns. I don't think they're called horns.

So I went and got the swiffer duster and dusted the stuffed dear hanging from her wall. Definitely something I've never done before.

While I was dusting it I couldn't help but wonder if he had a name. It seems to me that if I had a deer hanging in my living room watching me while I watched TV, I would want him to have a name.

Nothing fancy. Don't want him getting a big ego. Something simple maybe. Like Bob. Or Bill. Probably Buck.

Buck seems like the most appropriate name to me. So if I had a deer head hanging in my living room, I would name him Buck. And I would tell him my secrets. Cause who is he gonna tell?

So funny. I went over to one of our neighbors houses one time and they had all kinds of crazy African animals stuffed and I didn't really know what to think of it. I don't think I could ever turn the lights off, haha!

Hope your having a great weekend! Just found your blog, check out ours when you have time:

Those things creep me out too. I would never want a stuffed, dead animal hanging in my home, but that's just me.

PS- They're antlers. ;)

Um, they're called antlers

Yup, they're antlers.

I would be scared, too, if I saw one. I'd also be kind of tempted to pet it and ask if it wants its body back.
