horatio
a one sentence story
horatio
At one point we had three dogs (yeah, not doing that ever again), and if one of them was in trouble, I found myself wanting to call them by their full name (like any good parent who knows how to scold does), but managing three unique middle names felt really tough, so we gave all of them the same middle name—Horatio—which has persisted for all of our pets since then (and sometimes our children).
For the month of December I’m writing One Sentence Stories (OSS) every day as a way to find a little light in the darkness. They’re all true. They’re all 100% real. And yes, run-on sentences are somewhat required. You can also join in the fun if you’d like. As long as your story is one single sentence, it’s a fit! Feel free to tag me in a note so that I can read along and share your stories with others.
Your trans friend,

What beautiful dogs Robin. I'm truly a sucker for animals and I would take them any day over most humans.
As someone who has had a dog named Miss Priscilla Perkins, and currently has two (large) goldfish named Fish and Tank, I highly approve.
