She walked like a dog and ate like a hog
and now lays around like a log.
what is that,,,,a haiku? i don't think so. i think it is a limerick. i wonder if the semantics are right. or is that pedantic? you have to be a pterodactyl to know.
and now......for friday. it has been a long week. too much excitement with my birthday and all.

Well, since you asked... it's *almost* a limerick. The rhyme scheme for a limerick should be A A B B A, but sadly yours is A A B B B. It's the whole log thing that ruins it. ;)
BUT you get bonus points for the silent P in pterodactyl!
I know, 'cuz C's spelling bee is tomorrow.
PS
In 3rd grade I wrote a limerick. I can't remember it all but it started like this:
There once was a lady named Mabel.
She had a baby in a stable.
Uh oh - that can't be good.
I also wrote an awful haiku, which still hangs in my grandpa's kitchen:
Horses, spirited,
Wild and free they run.
Tamed and ridden.
