Last night, I may or may not have ordered this. It was free!
Don't tell Mindy.
She may or may not have gotten agitated at me last week because I insinuated that I was going to buy a squirrel pelt off Ebay.(They also sell freshly dead squirrels on Ebay too. Who knew?) I wasn't going to bring it inside and I need to start somewhere. All the taxidermy books I have been reading said that most taxidermists just start practicing with roadkill. I was trying to be a bit less gross about it. Although, to be fair, I did consider getting a squirrel off the side of the road for about 10 seconds the other day.
Also, Mindy told me we could buy Beauford.


I have several friends that are into taxidermy. They love doing it and will stuff anything they can find.
ReplyDeleteYour friends sound like awesome people.
DeleteYep, he should be yours
ReplyDeleteExactly. Thanks for the support.
DeleteOh my dear wife. Please do not bring any dead animal parts into our yard, house, or within 10 feet of our property line. I'm buying every taxidermy book you ask for. No dead animals yet. And by yet, I mean a long time from now.
ReplyDeleteYour patient and loving wife,
Mindy
P.S. We can go price Beauford on my next day off. He is an awesome exception.
Thanks for loving me even though I am in to gross stuff.
DeleteUm, yes, Beauford needs to be yours. Or mine. One of us needs him. And you are absolutely being considerate by purchasing dead animals off of Ebay instead of bringing home road kill.
ReplyDeleteI'll be sure to send you a better picture of him as soon as I get him. And I am nothing if not considerate.
DeleteI'm still trying to get Dave to let me have patterned pillows when we live together. Now I an be like "at least I didn't buy a Beauford!"
ReplyDeleteLol. I am happy that I can help you get patterned pillows.
DeleteI'm good at keeping secrets but I'm fairly certain Mindy already knows.
ReplyDeleteAt least you get Beauford!
She was sitting next to me on the couch while I was writing this. I had the computer turned so she could not see it. lol. I'm very sneaky.
DeleteI think I have some dead squirrels in my ceiling that you're more than welcome to try your new hobby on!
