Nearby.

There is a water bottle sitting on my shelf filled with orange vodka. The vodka is flavored like skittles candy. When you drink the liquid you at once hate yourself for absorbing such an absurd substance, and wish you had consumed more.

How fortunate! There is more!

I might have another dose. It’s like medicine, except different in every way.

Underneath the orange vodka is a dinosaur. The dinosaur is named Terry, and he’s fairly docile. Sometimes he wakes me up in the morning with a quick nip on my nose. He’s only about the size of a house cat.
