In conversation, I prefer Christopher. My mom named me after Christopher Robin, after all. In writing, I use “C L Couch” (or, more simply, “c l couch”) because the form is genderless and also frankly easier to use. I have awful writer’s cramp. I am an educator more or less retired, more or less due to disability. At present, I live in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania (USA). My writing here I mean to be occasional and also devotional. Either or both. The banner and profile photographs are by my friend and peer Debra Danielson. More of Debbie’s work to be enjoyed is at debradanielson.org. Thanks to each of you and both and all for coming to my blog.

Awesome Allegory, I enjoyed how you used ‘cats’ and ‘dogs.’

Thanks, Mandi. I grew up with cats and dogs and, for good or ill, tended to treat them as persons.

Haha. I completely understand. I’m not such a cat person but I had two dogs growing up. Spunky a Chihuahua- Terrier and lived to 17-years-old. She was cute but she always wandered and took off. After we had Nikki an American-Eskimo and Terrier. Loved that dog, she had such personality. But she got sick and passed away about 3-years ago now just turning 12. Trying to convince my Mom to let me get a little dog but no luck , I think if I’m at home 🙂

Wonderful Allegory, Christopher. I grew up with cats, too, and personified them, so I understand ☺️

Yes, you do! Cats are our friends if sometimes contrary.

Cats and dogs personified creatively! Great take, Christopher! 😀

Thank you, Rosema! Anymore, it’s hard not to see most animals in a personified way. And the dogs I’m caring for right now have plans, I’m sure.

Ohh! That is a bit fun to think of! 😀
