Asa’s Big Birthday Surprise

Chuck Billy: As you may recall last week I went on a shopping spree for Asa’s birthday.  But that’s NOT his big birthday surprise.  Oh, in case you’re wondering I gave him two balls, a squeaky toy, and treats.  Anyways, his BIG surprise is something Asa has wanted for a long time.  For those of you who have been following us for awhile, you know that since Asa was a puppy he has begged for one thing, namely his own column on my blog.  That’s why today, I’m announcing…drum roll please…I’ve added Asa’s name to my Twitter account – Chuck Billy & Asa @MaineGolden!

Asa: Wait, that’s it?!  I’ve been tweeting from your account since I was a puppy.  Where’s my column on LivingwithaGolden.com?

Chuck Billy: Blogging is serious business.  Besides, you’re too young.

Asa: Too young?  You were only 3 years old when you started it!  The same age that I am now.

Chuck Billy: Yes, but I was a mature 3 year old.  By that age I had taken care of our ailing older brother, grieved his passing, and was responsible for raising you!

Asa: I’m responsible!

Chuck Billy: Responsible? You spent Thanksgiving breaking the four paws on the floor rule by insisting on sitting on Grandma’s couch!  That’s irresponsible!

Asa: Haven’t you heard the quote from A Christmas Carol, “When happiness shows up, always give it a comfortable seat?”  Besides, some rules are meant to be broken, you said so yourself.

Chuck Billy: Don’t make me regret this gift.  I can change it back!

Asa: Oh sure, will you at least spell your name right this time?  Your old Twitter account had your name as one word, “ChuckBilly.”

Chuck Billy: That’s Dad’s fault!  He didn’t know you could use spaces when helping me to set up the original account.

Asa: What about Facebook?

Chuck Billy: My name isn’t on that account.  It will stay the same.  Not that it stopped you from posting there in the past too.

Asa: Well to show you just how responsible I am, I’m going to graciously thank you for adding me to your Twitter account, Chuck Billy & Asa @MaineGolden!  And I promise to tweet responsibly.  Thank you for my not-so-big birthday surprise!  Look out world, here comes more selfies!

I’m beginning to regret this decision already…
