(INTO THE WOODS AND BEYOND!)
I CAN’T BELIEVE IT!! I’M ACTUALLY SEEING ONE OF THE FLYING PEANUTS!! IT’S JUST RISING UP INTO THE AIR ALL BY ITSELF!!
WHAT’S UP THERE? I DON’T SEE ANYTHING! IF IT’S ALIENS, I CAN’T SEE THEM…I CAN SORT OF HEAR NOISE…LIKE PEOPLE CHEERING AT A BASEBALL GAME. I CAN SMELL HOT DOGS, POPCORN….IN FACT I THINK I SEE HOT DOGS AND POPCORN FLYING UP INTO THE SKY! SOMEWHERE UP IN THE UNIVERSE THERE’S OBVIOUSLY A BALLGAME GOING ON AND THEY’RE STEALING ALL OF OUR SNACKS!! THIS IS SO UNFAIR!!
AFTER OLIVER GOT DONE WRESTLING WITH THE PRACTICE TIGER AND THE MOUSE AND THE DOG, HE WAS KIND OF TIRED. HE WAS GETTING READY FOR A SNOOZE IN THE SUN WHEN I NOTICED THE EYES BEHIND HIM…AND THEN I NOTICED HIS EYES…AND THEN I JUST FREAKED OUT!
IT WAS A WHOLE LOT LESS STRESSFUL UP ON THE SPACESHIP TAKING ALL THOSE TESTS…YOU HAVE TO READ A FEW POSTS BACK TO KNOW WHAT I’M TALKING ABOUT.
THEY TOLD ME THAT I SCORED 1,700 OUT OF 2 ON MY TESTS. I GUESS THAT’S A GOOD SCORE BECAUSE THEY GAVE ME THIS REALLY COOL TATTOO.
I DON’T READ ALIEN WORDS REAL WELL…BUT IT LOOKS LIKE A STRING OF LETTERS….
THESE ARE THE LETTERS….M…O…R…O…N… I KNOW THAT’S SHORT FOR SOMETHING.
MAYBE “MOST ORIGINAL ROUTE OF NEURONS”…
MAYBE “MAGNIFICENT ORATOR ,..RADIANT NARCISSIST.”
SORRY, I STARTED OUT TALKING ABOUT OLIVER, I DIDN’T MEAN TO MAKE IT ALL ABOUT ME.
YESTERDAY IT SEEMED LIKE THE SUN COULDN’T WAIT TO SMILE ON EVERYONE….
NOW THIS IS WHERE I GO OFF ON ONE OF MY CRAZY LITTLE FLIGHTS OF FANCY…THOSE BEAMS KEPT DRAWING ME CLOSER AND CLOSER, BUT WHEN I GOT TOO CLOSE THEY DISAPPEARED. WHEN I BACKED AWAY, THERE THEY WERE AGAIN, TA-DA!
I DIDN’T GIVE UP…I APPROACHED THOSE BEAMS THAT LOOKED SO WARM AND INVITING, AND I WAS SUCKED UP INTO A SPACE SHIP! I’M WRITING TO YOU THIS VERY MOMENT FROM MY LUXURIOUS GUEST ROOM. I’M A LITTLE NERVOUS THOUGH… A MEDICAL GOWN THINGY JUST DROPPED OUT OF THE CEILING AND SOME STRANGE LITTLE VOICE TOLD ME TO PUT IT ON…AND THEN IT TOLD ME THAT MY TESTING WOULD BEGIN SOON. WHY WOULD I HAVE TO WEAR A GOWN TO TAKE A MATH TEST?
