from my tumblr…
when i was four years old and on vacation with my parents, i found a shivering baby bunny all alone under a bush. it was grey, and i named it thumper. i wrapped it up in a towel and begged my parents to let me keep it…but they convinced me that it was a country bunny, and that it would be happier at the zoo than in our hell’s kitchen apartment. so to the zoo it went.
to make me feel better, my parents bought me a tiny stuffed bunny from FAO Schwartz. it was grey, and i named it thumper.
a week later, i left it in the food court of a mall…and when we went back to look for it, it was gone.
