Me and my new friend Piganine.

No Comment!

A little dose of reality

OK. I know that everyone is talking about the recent exposures of someone who looks very much like me being somewhat inappropriate. These videos and reports show a very wild and crazy sock monkey stealing a vehicle and taking it for a joy ride. I know there has been a lot of press about it. There is no proof that these photos and/or videos are of me. I do not know any cyclops, not that there is anything wrong with being a cyclops. I am a very well behaved sock monkey and I maintain that I have done nothing to be ashamed of. My Mom and Dad have hired the PR Firm of "Spin' em & Stretchit" to handle the situation. It's truly awful. My Dad has to go everywhere with me. People rush at us and some are very rude and yell "Cyclops Lover" at me.

I maintain that the press is simply looking for a new story since Brittany Spears and Paris Hilton have been keeping such a low profile.

Zoom Zoom

The blue angels are in town this weekend and we have been watching them. It's been really amazing. We went up on the roof our building and watched them swoop by. It was really loud, really cool and kinda scary. They were so close we could see the pilots faces. My Dad says they come to town to draw our attention to the Navy and the Marines. To keep us thinking about their role in our society and what they do for us. I know I think they are really cool. I wish I could go for a ride in one of those jets. I can't believe some of the things they can do! They did twistys, they flew really close to the water and they swooshed inbetween the buildings! It was soooo amazing! I think they inspire kids like me to become pilots.

Boo!

Halloween is almost here! I love Halloween. Scary movies on TV. Looking at costumes. Trying to decide what to be for Halloween. I bet I will try on at least 6 outfits. Me and Dog and Bunny will make lots of plans. Party or Trick or Treating? So many decisions to make. I can't wait to watch to watch Dracula..and I recorded The Blob too. This is going to be so fun. I can't wait. I don't like candy as much as I like bananas...but Mom will trade candy for bananas. Dog wants to go as Wolverine. Snigger. I think Dog thinks he is soooo handsome. I think I'll go as the headless horseman. Or maybe Zorro. Bunny is going as Eeyore. We will get to carve pumpkins and make popcorn balls. Mom will make chocolate covered frozen bananas. We will decorate the house with all kind of fun things. Like I said I just can't wait.

Bully for you

Some kids at school were really mean to me. My feelings are really hurt. Bear is one of the kids I know at school. He's really cool and everyone thinks he is really neato. He is really funny and makes everyone laugh. But sometimes...sometimes he makes other people feel bad while he makes people laugh. When that happens it doesn't feel so good. He is one of those people who you don't want to have mad at you. He likes to control how everybody gets along. If he's mad at you he talks bad and kinda shuns or ignores you. Dad says to ignore people like that. But it can be really hard. People tend to do what Bear wants them to do. So if he makes fun of you and treats you bad, other people follow. They don't want to be on the bad side of Bear. Anyway after vacation, Bear wasn't so nice to me. I didn't respond to that very well. I cried at school. Now everyday Bear calls me a cry baby. And I don't like it!!!! I thought about flipping boogies on his lunch. Dad says no. "Don't do that. NO FLIPPING BOOGIES EVER!" I think it might make me feel better. It made me feel better about the air conditioning man. Dad says I need to learn how to deal with my feelings, because people like Bear never go away. He says he sees people like that all the time. They are just bullies. I'm not sure how this will turn out. But I don't like it right now. I don't want to go to school.

Ireland

So we all just went on vacation.

It was really cool to experience lots of new and different things. New and different ways of doing things. It was so exciting! We went to Ireland. They do things lots different than we do. Or maybe as Daddy says, " we do things differently than they do". They drive on the other side of the road. The stick shift is on the left instead of the right. They eat enormous breakfasts and they drink instant coffee. The money is different and the taxes are REALLY high. They don't tip and all the electrical outlets have on/off switches. There aren't a lot of sock monkeys around. I got lots of stares and lots of people giving me bananas and asking if they could pet me. Everyone was really nice. All the people there made us feel really welcome and right at home. We traveled all over the country and stayed in a different town every night. We went to the Guinness storehouse..Mom even let me have a little pull of her pint. tee hee. It was really funny tasting. I think I like my Banana juice better. I really liked seeing how things were so different. How different cultures do things. It's really nice to be home with Dog and Bear and in my own bed again..but I really like Ireland and hope to go back again.
