Ridiculous thoughts are tasty candy, and I'm eating them one after the other and then throwing them back up on the page. Which is the best introduction that "Bitsy Pollo: A Love Story", the tale of a world where cows eat humans but one chicken of the vegetarian working class has Moral Qualms, deserves. Also I accidentally synopsized it.
Bitsy Pollo, everybody...um, she's a hero and she gets the girl in the end? The slave human girl who she teaches how to do simple maths and bathe herself? Damn, why aren't you all reading this Right Now, is what you're probably wondering.

It turns out that a lot of other people have what I like to call "hobbies". They've got whole worlds going on after their dull office job that they hate is over. Nobody would ever guess.
Me? I'm turning my hobbies into my dull office job. Hopefully I won't drown, but at least everybody will know what's under the surface when I do.
