Another shopping trip. Another store.

"Alyssa! Come try on this!"

Another dress to try on. 

"It's so beautiful!" they say. "You should wear dresses more often." they say. "I don't like wearing dresses" I want to scream back. I don't, but they notice when I wear more shorts and jeans with a work-out T-shirt than skirts and dresses. They notice when I stop making my long, brown hair all "nice and pretty" and either french braid it or put it in a ponytail away from my face (usually the later). They think it's because of school or sports. It's partially true. Just not the whole truth.

29 parts Complete

Geoff and Naomi are dead, and they're depressed, but when Geoff's cat Bernie dies as well, they embark on a wild journey to find it in the underworld. ***** When Geoff dies, alongside his girlfriend Naomi, they end up sharing an apartment in the Underworld as skeletons. But after a few years, Geoff starts suffering a mid-death crisis. What's the purpose of going through the motions as a skeleton if you can't really live? Then he gets word that his cat, Bernie, just died and he can collect him and bring him home! Geoff and Naomi hurry to get Bernie only to discover that, due to a clerical error, their cat has been lost. With the hunt for Bernie giving new purpose to Geoff's un-life, he and Naomi begin a quest to get back their cat. Battling skeleton pirates, climbing the sky ladder and facing off against the villain who took Bernie, Geoff is determined to find his purpose - or die a second time trying!
