The Hitwoman Hunts a Ghost
“Not that I was getting messages from an all-knowing deity or anything. No, I was being told to call in sick by a smug, entitled, brown anole lizard, who sounds an awful lot like Alan Rickman. His name is Godzilla…but he prefers God for short.
“Call in sick and get me a new place to sleep,” the demanding reptile boomed as I sleepily turned off my alarm. “I’m tired of slumming it and living like a hobo.”
Rolling over, I glared at him with my best who-dares-speak-to-me-before-I’ve-had-my-coffee lo...ok.

“Fight no,” my grammatically-challenged Doberman pinscher DeeDee interrupted. “Gotta. Gotta.” She sneezed for good measure.
While the lizard’s demands hadn’t been enough to stir me to action, the threat of the dog emptying her bladder indoors was enough to have me jumping up.MoreLess
