My Velvet Sleeping Pod
I marched back indoors because that dark porch was getting completely dull, and I demanded absolute bedtime luxury! Right on the woven bedside rug, someone had abandoned a giant fluffy pink faux-fur slipper. Did they honestly think their clumsy foot was worthy of all that velvety fluff? Obviously not! I hauled myself up the thick rubber sole, kicked my pink shoes into the soft interior, and wriggled all the way into the warm fleece toe box. I folded my arms over the plush rim and peered out like royalty in a velvet carriage. This furry castle belongs entirely to me, and nobody better dare touch it tonight!
