The Carpeted Tree of Azaroth

Here's the letter we wrote for the neighbors we cat-sat for this past week:

To our blessed itinerant parishioners,

We do hope your mission to the Godless hovel of "brotherly" love bore some fruit - We trust you were able to convert some weary souls along the way. As for your charges, we have done our best to be righteous and adequate substitutes in your absence. The one you call "Chiba" or "Mr. Pencil" saw us for the impostors we were. His incessant howling and wild antics proved a tiresome endeavor for both us and his two feline comrades. Grand Poobah "Nimbus" ate more than his fair share of rations in an attempt to cope with Chiba's antics.  While Frau Mitty took the high road, confining herself to the carpeted tree of Azaroth, to gaze at the vexing, winged sparrows of the forbidden walkway. As for us, we managed to survive, sustaining ourselves solely with the wondrous golden chips of corn. We hope we have provided enough replacements for your consumption upon your return. We thank you, and of course, our lord Jesus Christ, for your luxurious sleeping accommodations and...laundry.

Yours in faith and board games,
Mike and Emily

P.S. We played Dominion and it is SICK AS SHIT BRO! DONG ALLIANCE 4-evah!

Ok, so there are a few inside jokes here, but I thought it was worth sharing cause I think it's super fun and we spent some time on it. :D

Haiku of the Day:
Wind gusts like cold death
Render ache and sting on skin
The harsh of winter
