“Hey MTV, welcome to my crib!”
 

It’s Finley here! You see my huggable, perfectly rotund, fluffy friend? That’s Hibernation Harry! My big brother and I found him when we went skiing when I was reeaaaaally little. It’s just the two of us now, since Josh left. That’s him and I in that picture on the shelf. It’s been a while since I’ve seen him- he said he was gonna come back, but it’s been a while. Josh keeps his promises though. I’m sure he’ll be back soon.

Oh, be careful of the Duopoly game we have out. Sorry- I should’ve put that away earlier, but I didn’t know we were having guests over! You should totally say hi to Harry though! He’s suuuuuuper friendly and he LOVES hugs. He’s also a huge fan of hot chocolate. Who isn’t? It’s a perfect remedy to the freeze-your-ass off weather we have out here. That’s why it’s extra cozy in here- we’ve really gotta make it work and wait out the cold until spring comes around.

 

So yeah! I guess you could say Harry and I are just hibernatin’ out here, waiting for Josh to come back, hopefully. He’s missed the past eight summer solstices, which really sucks, ’cause that’s my favorite time of the year. I love the days where the sun stays in the sky as long as I’m awake- Harry loves it too! He loves lying in the glistening sun in a bed of grass, feeling the particles of light penetrate his furry coat, absorbing the honeysuckle-sweet summer air.

 

So until spring comes and the days grow longer, we’re gonna be here! You can come and join us when you’d like- right, Harry?
