Conversations with the Butterball Tee-Bee -- December 4, 2015 - PART 1

On today episode of Conversations with the Butterball, Boogerbrain TB, Hapless trudges out (sleepy and late) to find Butterball feeling extra personality-full. 

First, he was hiding behind is Bro, Gulls (The great Bro-mance between these two is a story for another time). 

Gulliver: "Sorry, Hapless. He's not here."

Hapless: "He told you to say that?"

Gulliver: "Somethin' like that. Wait, why are you walking around me? You're not supposed to walk around me. I'm guarding the shelter entrance for a reason!"

Butterball: "GO AWAY. I'm sleeping here. Baby Jesus is in the manger with one wise man guarding me."

(NOTE: It is difficult to halter a horse who is passively resistantly trying to turn you into a pillow. Heads are heavy. But eventually it is accomplished.)

Hapless: "Gonna get up now?"

Butterball: "Well...okkkk... Oops, nope, just fell over. Gonna stay flat out now."

Hapless: "SERIOUSLY?"

Butterball: "Serious as a nap in straw. You should try this. It's great. Come be my pillow."

Hapless: "You should get up. It's greater. Gulls, get your ass outta my way."

Gulliver: "My ass is protecting Rascal from having to leave me."

Hapless: "It's 6am. You're both ridiculous."

Gullver: "No comment but my ass ain't moving. Oh, and since you're practically leaning on it, it's time for me to poop."

Butterball. "It's SIX AM. I WAS SLEEPING. YOU'RE RIDICULOUS."

Hapless: "If I cluck like a turkey will you get up?

Butterball: "Um....."

Finally, he heaves himself to his feet with as much drama as possible, including wacking his head on the side of the shelter. And then trudged inside. Pretty sure he was still grumbling about his ridiculous human and early morning wake up calls.
