1. Write a blog post in exactly 12 lines.
I missed the part of the conversation where my brother told everyone he had named a dog after a girl we went to school with.
My brother is completely random, he named a dog after a well-known beautiful, and popular young lady and the fact that his dog had her name had nothing to do with him not liking her and everything to do with him being weird.
I guess it’s not completely uncommon, I’ve named three of my pets after three of my best friends’ siblings so…maybe this is just something we do.
I came into the conversation a little late though, the part I heard was the part where my brother nonchalantly mentioned that Sara Perkins was dead and I was all, “What!?!”
And he and my sister nodded and were all, “yeah, she didn’t make it.”
And I was all, “What happened!?!”
And they were all, “She got hit by a car.”
And I was all, “OH MY GOD, WHAT!?!”
I couldn’t believe they could be so nonchalant about Sara Perkins!
And then my sister, picking up on my horror was all, “OH not the human Sara Perkins…the DOG Sara Perkins.”
Because of course.
I’ve never been so relieved to hear about a dog’s death in my life.

Now that’s funny! I’ve never considered naming a pet after someone, even if the person had it coming to them.
