Spike

 Dear Idea Factory,

Random Doorway


I know, I know, I haven't written anything for you lately. Well don't give me that look I've been... busy! And I've been under attack by the Idea Fish.


Frightened Spike





No, I haven't written about the Idea Fish yet. 

Yes, I will. When? Soon. Soon, I promise! And, all right, stop giving me that look... what? Yes, I have a post for today! If you'll just let me get on with it! 




Lots of Spikes

Right. So today I'm going to tell you about Spike.Who is Spike, you ask? Well, simply put, Spike is what you look like when you get out of the shower and your hair is sticking straight up. If your hair is short enough to stick straight up, that is. If not then it's what your brother looks like when he gets out of the shower. 


Worried Spike

Unless my brother is the only one who has a sister who tells him he looks like Spike when he gets out of the shower and his hair is sticking straight up... or perhaps my brother is the only one who's hair sticks straight up after a shower making him look like Spike. Or maybe other brother's don't let themselves be seen when they've just emerged from a shower. So maybe Spike is really my brother and not a representation of all recently showered brothers at all. 



Random Treasure Chest

But whatever he might represent, Spike is one of the few drawings I actually don't throw into the trash can immediately after attempting it. As a matter of fact, I've kept careful posession of the scrap of paper that bears his only incarnation, and now have finally bestowed upon him the form of Digital Immortality. 








May Spike rest peacefully forever, here in this blog post of Randomness to beat all previous Randomness.
