How low can you go?

Over at Grandma's Goulash, Grandma has posted a photo, and her daughter Calico has picked the word-of-the-week ("theory") and now participants are asked to write a story based on the picture—either a short story of 140 words, or a short-short story of 140 characters, including spaces and punctuation.
I don't get over to Grandma's to participate as often as I'd like, but when I do, I like to use Option 2: 140 characters, including spaces and punctuation.
If I can, I like one of the words to be the word of the week. I think I've got it, by George, I think I've got it. 134 characters, including spaces, punctuation and "theory"!


What??? I fell asleep in my owner's chair and when I woke up I was holding a guitar, and people were telling me to learn Music Theory.

    Poor fella--he's so confused. I've awakened from a dream and felt confused on occasion.

    Lovely picture.

    And I bet doggy didn’t find it difficult to learn enough ‘theory’ to play a jolly tune.

    Kay, your friend might like the college course, "Class guitar." I took "Class piano" for two semesters in mid-life and learned a lot, theory and playing both.

    I think some of your weather sneaked down to Texas to visit the past two days.

    Maybe he should get one of those learn-while-you-sleep tapes. I suppose they wouldn't be tapes nowadays, I wonder if any of those actually work? I think I'd just end up sleepless.
