When I'm not at my desk, you can usually find me out walking Sherlock, my dog, along the path to the lake. Sherlock is a large mutt with one blue eye and one brown. The blue one has a problem with bright sunlight, so the dog has to wear sunglasses outside.
Friends call me Mor, or Morty. Only my mother calls me Mortimer. I like plaid bow ties because that's what my grandpa always wore, and when he died, I got them all. I also wear his long Macintosh (coat) even though it's still too big for me.
I have an old golf cart I like to drive along the muddy banks and watch for cool things that might have washed up. Sherlock rides with me unless he jumps in the water. Then I make him walk back to the house.
I like pencils. I carry a few around with me all the time, even though I don't sharpen them. I like the smell, and when I'm bored, I can flip them around between my fingers. A long time ago, a Korean guy showed me how. I hope to run into him again someday so I can show him that I practiced a lot and can finally do all the tricks.
I don't like germs, so I'm careful what I touch. If I think something might be germy, I move it around with a pencil. Then, of course, I get a new pencil.
My favorite food is tuna fish and sweet pickles. I would eat it every day, but it would probably make my breath stink permanently, so I don't consume it often. My favorite color is yellow--painfully bright and glowing like the sun in the morning. It makes me feel alive.
People send me coffee mugs all the time because, you know, they have my last name on them. I have a collection hanging on one wall of my porch. I prefer hot chocolate, but I drink it out of a plain mug. If it says "coffee" on the side, I think you should only drink coffee out of them. What do you think?
