Me and My Pioneer Rabbit, Triple Flipping on Beam


January 6, 2014 bureau original, I like to draw, pioneer rabbit

Known for their spry flexible bodies and unique jumping nature, me and my pioneer rabbit decided that the balance beam was the best Olympic event to try our hand at. I mean, if they had offered carrot eating as an event that would clearly have been a close contender. Hopefully the judges don't deduct points for floppy ears.

Me and My Pioneer Rabbit, Lava Chasers


November 18, 2013 bureau original, I like to draw, pioneer rabbit

On our tropical ventures me and my pioneer rabbit came across the amazing size of a volcano spewing molten lava every which way, with a river of hot flowing rocks right before our feet. Or perhaps it was carrot juice, from a carrot juice mountain? Wishful thinking rabbit, that's how we get into trouble...

Me and My Pioneer Rabbit, Sighting UFO


October 10, 2013 bureau original, I like to draw, pioneer rabbit

Instead of being the subject of an adventure, me and my pioneer rabbit decided for once to be bystanders and take a trip out to extra terrestrial territory to spot some flying disks and foreign visitors. As luck would have it, our role as bystanders was short lived...

Me and My Pioneer Rabbit, Bungee Jumping


September 10, 2013 bureau original, I like to draw, pioneer rabbit

Crossing things off his bucket list at a breakneck speed, my pioneer rabbit was hellbent on getting some adrenalin via bungee jumping. No matter that his weight was FAR LESS than the average jumper, he used the extra spring to his full advantage and made a loop dee loop which had bystanders gasping in awe.

Me and My Pioneer Rabbit, Vampire Disasters


June 6, 2013 bureau original, I like to draw, pioneer rabbit

Another late night at the cemetery, another chance for the night to go completely awry. Suddenly, my pioneer rabbit was overcome by a blood sucking thirst and I was helpless against his Leporidae incisors as he leapt towards my jugular. Perhaps it was a latent memory of having watched Monty Python's crazed murdering bunny skit; perhaps it was a culmination hearing "how many eggs have you laid this year" at Easter; whatever it was, there was no getting out of this one.

My Pioneer Rabbit, Making Bunny Love


May 3, 2013May 3, 2013 bureau original, I like to draw, pioneer rabbit

I was surprised it had never come up before, but one weekend my Pioneer Rabbit declared he was off to a retreat. A bunny love retreat. I guffawed and told him not to get lost in the 1970's. As you can see, he made the most of his weekend doing what bunnies do best: love.

Me and My Pioneer Rabbit, Circus Performers


March 22, 2013 bureau original, I like to draw, pioneer rabbitcomment (3)

After seeing one too many Siegfried and Roy reruns, my pioneer rabbit couldn't resist the smell of popcorn, peanuts and elephants anymore. We joined the circus and he quickly became a star of the show due to his small and flexible nature, excelling on both tightrope, acrobatics, sitting in the lion's mouth, and riding on top of other animals.

Me and My Pioneer Rabbit, Claiming Netto


March 5, 2013 bureau original, I like to draw, pioneer rabbit

That dang scottish terrier was everywhere, and my rabbit was starting to get jealous. So he took the Netto grocery store chain into his own paws and claimed it as his own. Be gone, pooch with a basket! Now if only we could change their policy of not having half the items you need on any given day.

Me and My Pioneer Rabbit, Tourists in Paris


January 28, 2013 bureau original, I like to draw, pioneer rabbit

Everything in Paris was pointy. The Eiffel Tower, the perfectly manicured trees, the baguettes, the Frenchie's sense of humor. But due to a previous issue with scaling tall buildings and tightropes, my rabbit had a restraining order on Paris' most famous spire and we were forced to gaze at it from afar.

Me and My Pioneer Rabbit, Navigating IKEA


January 16, 2013 bureau original, I like to draw, pioneer rabbitcomment (1)

Many before us had tried. Many before us had failed. And in between there were certainly no shortage of glorious victories and tragic defeats between parents and children, young couples, and me and my pioneer rabbit. But in the end, we survived our trip to IKEA, richer several pieces of self-assemble furniture and a kilo of tea lights later.
