Happy July 4th + Tweet Tales Tuesday Week 257
July 5, 2017
Happy 4th of July! I hope you’ve had a fantastic day celebrating with family and friends. Freya also wanted to wish you a Happy Independence Day.
Patriotic Freya
Unfortunately, she is now feeling much less celebratory. She is not a fan of the sky boom booms. She didn’t use to mind them, but within the last two years, fireworks, thunder, and the lawn mower have become the enemy. I guess it’s a result of her hearing changing as she’s gotten older. 
 
The really weird thing is that she often hides in the bathtub. The reason it’s so weird is that she HATES getting baths. Like she hates them so much that she won’t step foot into any bathroom, even if treats are offered. So I don’t understand why she not only goes into the bathroom but the actual bathtub to hide.

After a while in the tub this evening, she decided that wasn’t safe enough and pushed her way under my desk. So she’s hanging out there now with her crazed fireworks face. Poor girl. I feel bad laughing, but she’s just so darn cute!

Anyway, I somehow missed last week's tweet tales again, so we have two again for this week’s 15 Minute Tweet Tales post:
 
15 Minute Tweet Talesoctothorpe – another term for the pound key or hashtag.
 
6/27 – "I keep seeing photographs on the world wide web labeled octothorpe blessed. What does that mean?" They try not to laugh at Grandpa.
 
ophryon – The official definition is the craniometric point in the midline of the forehead immediately above the orbits, but it boils down to the space between your eyebrows.
 
7/4 – A zit sprouts on her ophryon & gets bigger every day. Then a horn pokes through & she becomes the unicorn she was always meant to be.
 
Play along and write tweet tales for the above words. If you’re willing to share, post them on twitter with the hashtag #15tt or add them below in the comments because I’d love to read them. Any thoughts about this week's tweet tales or #15tt words?
