Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for February 22, 2014

Time should also go slowly when you’re enjoying yourself, and fast when you’re not.

Great excuse for playing video games — with Marigold levitating her controller.

The shading job on Phoebe’s hair is awesome.

At least you have summer off from school. That’s a step in the right direction.

You should ask, Marigold. Even Unicorns can learn something new.

Shades of “Camelot”:It’s true! It’s true! The crown has made it clear.The climate must be perfect all the year.A law was made a distant moon ago here:July and August cannot be too hot.And there’s a legal limit to the snow hereIn Camelot.The winter is forbidden till DecemberAnd exits March the second on the dot.By order, summer lingers through SeptemberIn Camelot.Camelot! Camelot!I know it sounds a bit bizarre,But in Camelot, CamelotThat’s how conditions are.The rain may never fall till after sundown.By eight, the morning fog must disappear.In short, there’s simply notA more congenial spotFor happily-ever-aftering than hereIn Camelot.Camelot! Camelot!I know it gives a person pause,But in Camelot, CamelotThose are the legal laws.The snow may never slush upon the hillside.By nine p.m. the moonlight must appear.In short, there’s simply notA more congenial spotFor happily-ever-aftering than hereIn Camelot.

I’ve always been of the belief that in Spring, Summer and the first half of Autumn, the rain should limit itself to between the hours of 1 AM and 5 AM every other night; and the rest of the year it could only snow on weekends or holidays.
