Heart to Heart: The BoDee Soap
The Tail 
5/7/2012: After a very tiring and trying night of explaining and explaining to Miranda, that just because Jr. died, doesn’t mean that he ceased to exist. That he’s just in a different dimension and often likes to come back and visit with them, and that all puppies can see beings from other dimensions very easily. But, Miranda just kept on insisting she was a mouse. Both BoDee and Murphy apologetically explained to her that since she had no problem seeing Jr. from the beginning, they just figured mice were like pups and could see inter-dimensionally. Peanut visited with Miranda and said she could relate a bit, because of her experiences on the Spooky McTavish set. She tells Miranda that once she realizes she can see inter-dimensionally, all she has to do is just to ask herself if what she’s seeing is 3-D or another big D. “It’s amazing how the answer just quickl;y pops in your head when you ask,” said Peanut. Then Peanut gave Miranda a medicinal glass of her favorite Beaver Juice. 
5/6/2012: At breakfast the next morning Jr. continues to brag on his selection of the Kentucky Derby winner and keeps throwing it in BoDee’s face. BoDee, suspicious, asks him if he placed a bet on him. Jr., figuring Peanut actually placed the bet, denies it, and says it just feels great to be right. Peanut, disgusted, because of her part in the bet, whispers to him to quiet down, and advises him that his winnings won’t do him much good since he’s dead. Miranda overhears that Jr is dead and shrieks a bit hysterically, “What do you mean he is dead?” BoDee explains that Jr. passed from this plane a few years back…and Miranda promptly whiggs out. It takes BoDee and Murphy all day and all night to calm Miranda down.
5/5/2012: BoDee puts on the TV to watch the Kentucky Derby with all her guests and discovers a horse named BoDieMeister is to run. She decides to root for him, since they share a name…besides she likes the way the rider affectionately patted him before the race. Peanut and Jr both root for I’ll Have Another, everyone else decides to root for BodieMeister. BoDee disappointed that BodieMeister didn’t win, feels bad for him since he ran the race with all his heart, you could see he really wanted to win. She felt that everyone in the house that was rooting for him near the end helped him hold on to second place.
5/4/2012: BoDee calls Murphy and Jr and asks them to come over and watch the Kentucky Derby with Peanut, Miranda, and her. They both accept, knowing that BoDee, as always, will have plenty of BoDee’s favorite cookies and ice crème on hand and since she also invited them to stay over, they’ll know they’ll have a great breakfast…BoDee loves to eat….and of course there is her super big, big TV…it will be just like being there. BoDee hasn’t told either one of them about her new Brocolli menu. She supposes that it can’t hurt them to have more vegetables on display at the table and they will have their favorites available. Maybe she’ll add some humus and carrots too just for variety.
5/3/2012: Miranda invites herself over BoDee’s to see the Kentucky Derby with Peanut, since Peanut has a bet on I’ll Have Another. BoDee hears about the bet and advises Peanut that she feels very uncomfortable with her placing a bet on the horse. She explains that she fears she might have picked up some of Jr’s bad habits, while she was living with him. Peanut advises that it was only $20 and that it’s not like betting, it was just a hot tip. BoDee Hmphs and decides to have a Kentucky Derby Party at her house. She has a few suspicions she wishes to flush out.
5/2/2012: Peanut gets a call from her Uncle Jr. and he asks her to place a $20 bet on I’ll Have Another in the Kentucky Derby for him. Peanut advises him that he was suppose to stop gambling, if he wanted to get back into BoDee’s good graces again. Jr. Insists that it is not gambling, that he got a hot tip, and it’s only $20. He then reminds Peanut of how he helped her when she whimped out on her Vision Quest. Peanut, against her better judgement, but feeling guilty, calls Las Vegas and places the bet. Miranda overhears the call.
5/1/2012: BoDee has a past life regression and identifies that she and Peanut were together in another life. They were both in a Tibetan Monestary and she was a dog; but, Peanut, strangely enough, was a cat. It was so strange that she asked her higher self why Peanut was now a dog, if she had been a cat…after all, very few cats that she knew would want to come back as a dog. She was told that Peanut came back as a dog to learn true humility. BoDee laughed indulgently. She wondered how Peanut would react if she told her about her cat life.
4/30/2012: BoDee does some more meditation and discovers the reason she receiving runes in her fur is because in another life in another dimension she is an Odin LIULFR (Shield Wolf) protecting Heimdall the guardian the Rainbowbridge of Asgard. She also protects the bridge. ..and she is big, big, big and Male???
4/29/2012 BoDee decides to spend the day doing some serious spiritual work, she gets up and does her Tai Quan Dogge exercises, goes downstairs and eats some broccoli for breakfast, not even wanting to think about why broccoli over some good old fashioned bacon and eggs, and decides to stay in the Now and strive to be heart centered, not stomach centered. She does a full hour of spiritial dancing, to a selection of Indian Peyote music, does an hour of spiritual howling, and then does a deep meditation for an hour and meets up with an itty bitty spirit dog, only to find out that it is her higher self, Heart’s Afire. She journals, what she remembers, mostly that she has had many past lives as a dog, in Egypt, Tibet, Peru, and in Chaco Valley in North America. She also hesitantly journals that Heart’s Afire also told her to eat more vegetables, especially broccoli. 
4/28/2012 Spirit Wolf laughs and tells BoDee to have fun and to remember to Journal. He tells her to listen to the signals she has been given and to go with the flow, so that she can fulfill her destiny. He tells her to write, write, write, and then review what she has written, because as she grows, she will see things from new perspectives. He chuckles, and laughs again, and hangs up telling her to have a great journey. BoDee, miffed, decides to send Spirit Wolf 12 of her sand paintings as a birthday present, along with 12 bunches of broccoli. She then goes to the store to buy a journal.
4/27/2012 BoDee calls Spirit Wolf and informs him about what is going on. She tells him, that she has been doing a number of sand paintings using her feet, which is rather bizarre, since Peanut is the painter in the family. She has no talent in that particular direction. She then tells him she has even been howling. Something she seldom does, because of the throat problem she suffered as a young pup! Most important, she’s been eating a lot more vegetables, and a lot less meat!!! She asks him to explain what is going on. She never liked broccoli, and now she’s eating it by the bunch!!! She also asks what she is suppose to do with all the sand paintings she has been doing, since they are coming out her ears, and what all the symbols on her fur mean. 
4/26/2012 BoDee finds everyone staring at a web site that talks about Norse runes. 
She takes a peak, and finds that a number of the symbols that have been erupting on her fur look very similar. She wonders if anyone will be upset when it comes to light that runes come from canine Blue Lighters.
4/23/2012 BoDee, feeling guilty about not being a good role model for Peanut, stops eating her ice creme, and calls Canine Chocolate Devine, and tells them to just send her 1 box of her favorite brownies, instead of the 7 she ordered. She then goes into the media room to find out why everyone is being so quiet.
4/22/2012 Peanut and Miranda run to Murphy to tell him that BoDee is about to do a major pig out. Murphy quickly goes to BoDee and tells her that she’ll have to go back to the fat farm if she starts one of her royal binges. BoDee, vanilla ice creme on her mouth, 
just looks at him. He then tells her, she is not being a very good role model for Peanut, and walks off in a huff.
4/21/2012 While Junior and Murphy go on the internet trying to look up the symbols that have been erupting on BoDee’s fur, Peanut and Miranda continue to transcribe the symbols as they change on BoDee’s fur. BoDee disgusted goes to the refrigerator, and gets a whole gallon of Fran and Ferdy’s Vanilla Canine Ice Creme to pig out on. She then calls, Canine Chocolate Devine, and orders 7 boxes of her favorite brownies.
4/20/2012 BoDee stll miffed about Junior being told about the Blue Lighters, turns to him and says, “If any of this gets into SMUTT MUTT, I’ll know who did it, and I’ll cut off your allowance.” Junior looks hurt, and tells her, “I know you think that in the past I’ve talked to SMUTT MUTT about what’s going on in your life, but I never have.” BoDee huffs.
4/19/2012 Murphy defuses BoDee’s temper with a humorous querp about all the new BoDeeisms she will be providing them. Then he tells her how totally Zen the whole thing sounded. Junior, still on his alien track, tells BoDee not to discount that she was abducted by aliens.
4/18/2012 When Junior and Murphy come to help, BoDee finds out Miranda and Peanut told them. Totally ticked off, she counts to 100, and then turns to Miranda and Peanut and says, “Didn’t I tell you not to tell anyone about this, ABSOLUTELY NO ONE?” Startled, Miranda and Peanut look at each, and then turn to BoDee, and say simultaneously, “Well, yes. But we didn’t think that included Murphy and Junior.”
4/17//2012 Miranda and Peanut, thinking it’s really cool how BoDee is getting messages from the Blue Lighters, go on the internet looking for symbols similar to what BoDee has gotten on her fur. When they get no success, they call Murphy and Junior and ask for their help.
4/16/2012 BoDee gets Miranda and Peanut to transcribe all the symbols erupting on her back. Miffed, she tells them how Spirit Wolf laughed when she told him she was totally unprepared for all of this. He just told her she wasn’t listening to the Blue Lighters when they wanted to talk to her in the regular way, so now they have gotten her attention. She complains, “Why me?”
4/15/2012 Spirit Wolf tells BoDee she is getting messages from Sirius Blue Lighters, angels of the canine realm. She asks him why they don’t chat with her the same way normal dogs do. He tells her she’s not ready yet. BoDee tells Spirit Wolf she’s really not ready for this method either.
4/14/2012 BoDee is getting more and more irritated with the involuntary fur movements on her back. She finally takes a look at what’s going going on, and discovers strange and different symbols are being formed by her fur. She wiggs out, and calls Spirit Wolf.
4/13/2012 BoDee tells Peanut her speculation. Peanut doesn’t quite believe the explanation, especially since she and Miranda told no one when they were coming home. BoDee tells Peanut that Jr. may have been hoping someone, anyone, would probably notice the projection, and it would get into SMUTT MUTT. BoDee explains to Peanut that she probably spiked her Uncle Jr.’s plan, when she stopped Miranda from calling the police or the fire station.
4/12/2012 BoDee finds a broken projector in the media room. However, nothing in the projector would suggest that she was floating in air with a blue light around her. She starts to think that it might be a practical joke. She wonders if Jr. somehow got in the house and rigged up something.
4/11/2012 BoDee goes in search of the wonky movie projector to prove to Peanut that there is a rational explanation for what everyone saw. Meanwhile BoDee notices that the fur on her back is acting a little funny and feels a bit weird.
4/10/2012 Peanut finally gets BoDee to wake up. BoDee tells Peanut about the pleasant but weird dream she had about a visitation from the angel pups of Sirius. Peanut explains to BoDee what everyone saw. BoDee laughs and tells Peanut one of the movie projectors in the house must have gone wonky.
4/09/2012 Suddenly, BoDee’s body starts to get lower and lower, and the blue light around her gets dimmer and dimmer. Then she disappears! Everybody runs around the house to see if they can find her. Peanut runs into the house, and finds BoDee asleep in her bed. Peanut tries to wake her Mom; but, BoDee is in a very deep sleep.
4/8/2012 Both Jr. and Murphy arrive at BoDee’s. Once they see what is 
going on, neither one of them knows what to do. However, they do notice that BoDee looks like she is sleeping. Jr. asks Peanut if she sees anything besides what they are all seeing. She doesn’t, but she does hear some strange mystical music. Jr. takes his binoculars and looks for a UFO in the vicinity. He finds none.
4/7/2012 Peanut calls both of her Uncles on her cell phone, and tells them of the strange happening at BoDee’s. They decide to join forces, and go together to BoDee’s to help out.
4/6/2012 Peanut and Miranda get home pretty late and are startled to see BoDee enveloped in a blue light, elevated in a stationary position, high about the house. Miranda wants to call the fire station or the police to get help. Peanut, wanting to keep things quiet, insists on calling her Uncle Murphy and her Uncle Jr.
4/5/2012 Miranda and Peanut fly back to Dallas from Daffy World. While on the plane, a number of Peanut’s wrestling fans recognize her and ask for photographs. Peanut, feeling all warm and fuzzy inside because her fans have not forgotten her, happily and graciously signs all their photographs of her.
4/4/2012 BoDee goes with her Mom to their energy worker. On the way, her Mom does some heart chakra toning. BoDee finds herself toning with her Mom, and experiencing a major heart chakra release. She starts howling in tones she has never heard herself do before.
4/3/2012 Due to Miranda’s recent brag session, BoDee is inundated with e-mail resumes from mice from all over Florida. She calls Miranda on her cell phone and asks what’s going on. Miranda explains and apologizes. BoDee tells her to tell her friends, that at this time, she is not hiring any more mice actors or actresses. There are no roles for them in her next movie.
4/2/2012 Both Miranda and Peanut are having a grand time visiting Daffy World. Peanut gets to visit all of Miranda’s friends, and go to a dozen parties. But, both stay off the junk food just as they promised BoDee.
4/1/2012 Miranda brags about her new cushy job with BoDee, and is asked by a few of her friends to see if BoDee has a position for them.
3/30/2012 BoDee has been hearing strange sounds and seeing strange lights in the vicinity of her home. She calls Murphy and asks him if he has been experiencing the same thing near his house. He says no, but tells her Jr. swears he saw a UFO the other night, right over BoDee’s house. BoDee laughs, and says Jr. always see strange things no one else sees.
3/29/2012 While in Daffy World, Peanut experiences a past life regression, and discovers the reason why she is so afraid of motorcycles. She was a bootlegger scout dog in the 20′s and fell off a scouting motorcycle while being chased by another bootlegger. She was squashed by a truck!
3/28/2012 Miranda visits Peanut and talks Peanut into going to Daffy World with her. BoDee finds about about the plan to go to Diaffy World and thinks it is a good idea. She thanks Miranda for her concern about Peanut’s depression, and tells her that she should wait a while before deciding to become a boy beaver. BoDee then tells Miranda that it must have been very traumatic being a lab mouse; but, now she has a lot more job options and a family. She then asks both Peanut and Miranda to promise not to over eat on junk foods while on vacation, since it just hypes them both up. They both promise.
3/27/2012 BoDee calls The Magnificent Murphy to chat about the situation with Peanut, and Jr’s involvement.
3/26/2012 BoDee calls Jr. and asks why he didn’t call her when Peanut came to him. Jr. tells her he promised Peanut he wouldn’t. He tells BoDee that when he found out she was going to do a search for Peanut, he made sure Murphy could see Peanut in his window.
3/25/2012 BoDee finds Peanut stuffing her face with a bunch of comfort foods and feeling completely dejected and down. BoDee tells Peanut she’s very sorry, that she just didn’t think! That she had her ears up and very pointy; but, she just didn’t listen. She just remembered that on her vision quest, her instincts immediately kicked in, just like Spirit Wolf said Peanut’s would. She thought Peanut would have the most trouble with the fasting, just like she did!
3/24/2012 Murphy calls BoDee and explains about the aborted vision quest. BoDee shows up at Murphy’s and asks Peanut to forgive her, and come back home. She tells Peanut that she should have listened to her when she suggested that a three day cram course on wilderness living was not enough, especially since Peanut is such an urban puppy! Peanut forgives her mother and sheepishly goes home.
3/23/2012 Jr sneakily positions Peanut near the window in his room when he sees Murphy go by it. Murphy, seeing Peanut with Jr., immediately calls BoDee. BoDee sends her chauffer for Peanut. Peanut, hysterical, explains what happened to Murphy, and begs to stay with him. To calm her down, Murphy agrees.
3/22/2012 BoDee starts to worry because Peanut should be back from her vision quest. She calls The Magnificent Murphy to relieve her stress. Meanwhile, Jr is tearing his fur out, and trying to get Peanut to go home. As the days go by, her litany of woes and fears gets longer and longer. Then Murphy tells him that BoDee’s going to start a search for Peanut, since she hasn’t come back from her vision quest.
3/21/2012 Miranda, in her private suite in BoDee’s home, stuffs herself on her favorite Rockfort cheese, and gets maudlin. She reflects back on her earlier life when she thought about being a beaver. She feels that beavers have more job opportunities than mice, plus their choices are a lot safer, and decides to become a beaver! You never hear about beaver’s being placed in a lab to be experimented on!
3/20/2012 Jr. stays up all night with Peanut pigging out on Fran and Ferdy ice creme, and listening to Peanut complain about how her mother is so perfect and brave, and would never have aborted her vision quest. Esmerelda finally goes to see Bertha Bumble Bee, Aloysius Bee’s wife. Esmerelda’s not too thrilled about the behavior modification plan they decided on. But, she wants Harold back!
3/19/2012 Peanut is still staying with Jr and driving him nuts with her poor poor me attitude. Meanwhile, on another front, Harold sees his son playing with a sticky web- like Yo Yo, and thinks it quite cute and creative, until he finds out Ichy Ban Icky is the Yo Yo! He has his son release Ichy and apologize to him.
3/18/2012 Peanut, hyped up from a sugar high from pigging out on her favorite Fran & Ferdy ice creme, and feeling totally humiliated about aborting her vision quest, tells her uncle Jr. that she can never go back home. She just couldn’t face the disappointment on her mother’s face. She asks if she can stay with Jr. Jr. not wanting Peanut to crimp his lifestyle, tries to persuade Peanut to go back home.
3/17/2012 After an extremely harrowing day and night in the wilderness, trying to be brave and tough, Peanut throws in the towel. She calls her Uncle Jr. on her cell phone, and asks him to come pick her up. Jr, knowing Peanut is pretty free with her money, and smelling a lot of free Fran & Ferdy ice creme, picks up Peanut and hears an earful of her woes, as he takes her to his current pad.
3/16/2012 Peanut goes on her vision quest and BoDee goes to a fat farm. Meanwhile, Harold agrees to go back with Esmy, if she’ll go to a beehiverist who will help her control her anger and impulse issues.
3/15/2012 BoDee told Peanut that she had had a vision quest when she was younger. That was when she got her very special Wolf name, Heart’s on Fire. That’s also when she found out that she was supposed to find Peanut and adopt her. She knew that Peanut was going to be something very special.
3/14/2012 Spirit Wolf prepared Peanut for her spirit quest, and showed her how to protect herself when seeing or communicating with the spirit realm. He said that Peanut’s purpose in life is to help people find the lost pieces of their soul, and bring them back into their life.
3/13/2012 Harold called BoDee and apologized for his ex-wife’s actions. Spirit Wolf arrived and helped Peanut out tremendously. He gave her a number of coping techniques, and confirmed that she was indeed a healing dog, and that she could communicate with the spirit realm.
3/12/2012 Miranda called BoDee and said she found out that Harold’s ex-wife, Esmeralda, leaked the information. Apparently, she was ticked off because BoDee spiked her reconciliation with Harold by suggesting that he get a less risky girl friend than a black widow spider.
3/11/2012 After much meditation, BoDee finally calmed down and stopped eating. She called Miranda, her agent, and asked if she knew who leaked the information. She told her she was very worried about Peanut, and now besides everything else, she is feeling so humiliated that everybody knows she’s a big fat “friady cat”. Miranda commiserated, and said that she didn’t know anything; but, that she would try to find out.
3/10/2012 BoDee, while awaiting Spirit Wolf’s arrival, saw a SMUTT MUTT headline entitled “Peanut, Star of Spooky McTavish, Has Been Terrified By Spooky Visions That Started With The Shooting of the Spooky McTavish Series.” She immediately went off her recent diet, and ate a whole gallon of her favorite Fran and Ferddy’s home made ice creme.
3/9/2012 BoDee exhausted from a very late night staying up with a terrified Peanut, decided to call Spirit Wolf, her old spiritual howling teacher, to see if he could help Peanut.
3/8/2012 BoDee had a pedi-paw and choreographed a new dance for her updated musical “Bordetella BoDee”.
3/7/2012 BoDee called in an energy worker to cleanse the house. The woman indicated that Peanut was a healing dog with the capacity to see things from other dimensions in a very clear fashion. She was most impressed with Peanut’s painting of the spirit realm.
3/6/2012 Both Itchy and BoDee discovered that Peanut has been painting nosilisms as therapy for the spooky visions she has been having. Itchy told BoDee that he thought Peanut was a very talented painter, and that it might be the new outlet she needed to get over her lost wrestling career.
3/5/2012 Itchy showed Peanut a new meditation technique to cope with the spooky visions she has been having since she started her new Spooky McTavish TV Series.
3/4/2012 Itchy Ban Icky came for his annual 3 day visit to BoDee and Peanut. They reminisced about the Karaoke Kabuki training he provided both of them. They all laughed about the time Jr. tried to teach Peanut Karaoke Kabuki and somehow got his head caught in the spokes of Peanut’s bike.
3/3/2012 BoDee tells Junior that if he stays clean for the next 6 months, she will see about putting him on her staff again, somewhere, where she would not have to worry about his bad influence on Peanut, if he slipped. She then calls Murphy, and he agrees to take Jr. in, and help him out for the next 6 months
3/2/2012 Junior visits BoDee, and begs for his old job back as her agent. He swears that he will not fall into his old ways, and that he has completely cleaned up his act. BoDee explains that she has given his old job to Miranda, so she just couldn’t give him his old job back.
3/1/2012 Miranda finally call BoDee and tells her that she lost the job she got for her at Daffy World. She explains that for the last seven months she has been working as a lab mouse. However, they are talking about changing her job again, and this time it won’t be shampoo she will be testing, this time it will carcinogens! BoDee, hearing this, immediately offers to find Miranda a job on her staff.
