A Deer Morning

Yawn.

Munch. Crunch. Slurp.

Crunch. Slurp. Munch. 

Helen: "Hi, Maude."

Maude: "Hi, Helen."

Helen: "Have you seen Chuck around?"

Maude: "I haven't seen hide nor hair nor antler of him or any of his friends."

Helen: "Humph. That's weird."

Munch. Crunch. Slurp.

Slurp. Munch. Crunch.

Maude with mouth full: "These woods sure have been quiet."

Munch. Slurp. Crunch. Slurp. Munch. Crunch.

"Hey, Chuck, is that you and your friends?"

"Chuck?"

"Must be my nerves this time of the year.

I gotta get over this paranoia thing.

I feel I'm being watched whenever I eat.

What's up with that?"

Crunch. Munch. Slurp 

"I need a nap."

Burp.
