Description Jan 7th,

" It was a cold night. We finally got a snow storm after days of random heavy rain and freezing winds. I invited Lisa over to hang out with me and to play some video games, but ended having her sleep over since I didn't want her to go out in the snow . She would have missed the bus anyway.

" This was her first time sleeping over so I didn't know how to react to her sleeping in the same bed as me. She said that she did not mind and that she wasn't going to try anything while I was asleep. I kind of wanted to snuggle with her, just to keep each other warm during the snow storm. In some ways, I was trying to 'egg' her on. We were just friends after all, but I am a snuggly kind of person. The hardest part about this was that I needed something to hug during the night and I didn't want to hug my stuff animal while I sleep. Lisa would make fun of me now and then about a mid-twenties adult snuggling with a stuff animal, so I put my bunny away in the corner, giving off the appearance that it was just to fill 'empty space'.

" It was about thirty minutes in the night and we were stiff wide awake, fighting over the blankets and the pillows, trying to keep warm. I still 'hinted' about snuggling through my body language, but she didn't get the message. After a while, I finally won the battle over most of the blanket and was just about to try to get some shut-eye until I felt her poking my head. I turned around and she just dangled my stuff bunny in front of me, asking if she could snuggle with it. I reminded her about her comments directed towards my snuff animals and my age, but she said that I could have the blankets if she slept with the bunny...

" Guess which one I chose... "

Mmm... I would have sugested we both snuggled the bunny. Otherwise, i would have snuggled the bunny myself. I'm 36, and yes. i snuggle with a stuffed animal. Deal.

I first thought it was a REAL bunny, since its neck looked elastic, like skin, by the way she's holding it.

Awwe... c.c personally, cuz i got this kinda odd possessive thing about my stuff.. i'd probibly had taken the bunny and let her hog the blankets. I used to sleep with lil plushie or something with me til like a good 10 or so years ago, but eh.. sometimes it would be nice to snuggle soemthing that can't hurt ya. hehe Great pic by the way. All your drawing seem to really have a deep feel to them. They bring out emotion so much compared to just a general pose and such.

The story is quite humorous and cute. I like how you always have a backround to all your artwork. There is a story behind it and reading each one makes each piece of art have more meaning.
