Greg the Egg

  No, I'm not kidding. I'm introducing a new recurring character to my blog, so now my dad has some company while he sits there and lies to himself as he says I love Jackie Earle Haley.
  Lies.
  Anyway, this character was created the day before Easter, because Greg, like the title says, is an egg. And Dad always wanted a dinosaur as a child, but because of certain factors he cannot have one (DARN YOU, COMET!!!!!). Because of this, to fill the void in his triceratops-less heart, every year at Easter he has started the tradition of "dinosaur egg," where he will take an egg and dip it in every single color dye we have on the table until it becomes all brown and green and dirty-looking and stuff, and it is his, well, you know. 
  This year I decided to make one (and no, dude, not just because JEH was in Valley of the Dinosaurs, which I shall acquire and watch one day, don't say anything, so drop it), and even though the pink dye was strong and gave it a very manly mainly-pink shell color with some greenish stuff here and there all over the shell, and he is mine and I made him and his name is Greg BECAUSE IT RHYMES WITH EGG AND FOR NO OTHER REASON, ALL RIGHT????
  Too bad I don't have a camera and stuff, because then I could upload pictures of Greg doing all sorts of hilarious things, like chillin' in his towel-nest or running from a raptor or taking his first steps or something. 
  Dad keeps threatening to squish Greg. So I guess that makes him the T-Rex.
