Today would have been Scooby's 26th birthday. Sadly, we held his funeral 4 years ago today, on his 22nd birthday. But, I've decided that being sad is silly, we can mourn on the anniversary of his death, but birthdays are for celebrating life! So, funny stories about Scooby!!!
One day when he was....10 years old?..... my mom got a call (or was it a visit?) from the Mesa Police Department, telling her that Scooby had been caught skateboarding on the roof of the elementary school! (I swear that boy was a regular Bart Simpson!)
When he was in high school he would leave his stereo on when he went to school. Not so bad, but I was working late hours at the airport, and trying to sleep in the mornings. I was constantly yelling at him to turn it off, and he was constanly being a teenage boy, ignoring me, or telling me to do it myself. I warned him to turn it off or else...! Of course he ignored me. So one day after he went to school without turning off the stupid stereo, I went in his room, unplugged it, and carried it to the attic. Later I got a phone call at work, as he demended to know what happened to his prized posession. I told him that I had warned him, and he wasn't getting it back! He said "Fine! Then I'll just take something of yours!" I told him to go right ahead, there's was nothing that mattered to me. All day I wondered what he would take. The only thing I worried about was the little teddy bear that Matt (boyfriend at the time) had given me for Valentine's day. All day I fretted over "Fuzzy", and hoped that he would be okay.When I got home from an early shift at work, I headed for my room, praying that Fuzzy was still there, and was astonished to walk in and find.....my king sized bed was MISSING! (but Fuzzy was fine, thanks for asking.)
We love you Scooby, and all your craziness!! Happy Birthday!
