Dry Dreamer

6 comments:

  1. I was a little confused by the practical implications for Dry Dreamer. That's what I get, sort of, for pondering the nature of a relationship (even if it was only a figment of Rasco's imagination) between a koala and a ridiculously absorbent paper towel.

    It's a good thing this took place in Rasco's imagination, because if this were presented within the context of occurring in reality--even if it's their reality--the ensuing wackiness would've caused this installment to "jump the shark" as it were. And, to mix my metaphors completely, to "jump the couch".

  2. I get it! It's not really about Rasco. He's just a character in the paper towel's daydream. Great job of anthropomorphism.

  3. Heheh, yeah perhaps I should have said "Starring: A Paper Towel" at the beginning. Rasco's really just the vehicle for the towel's imagination.

  4. Let it be stated here for the record, I completely botched up my understanding of the story's trajectory!

    It is the paper towel's dream to become super-absorbent! And to run for president.

  5. ...and to fly, sing, save the world and make a new best friend! Truly, what more could a paper towel ask for?
