The Very Pleasant Day

It's been quite a full day today. The best news? It went very smoothly. We went back out for our tour today and the evil Tom Tom (whom has often sidetracked us in weird and quirky ways--we often joked it was plotting to run us off the road) was now behaving itself. The school itself was very welcoming and the kids really got into it. I even treated myself to Pizza Hut for lunch. We only had one school to focus upon, and the workshops were cancelled today, so there was an extra hour to get ourselves ready for the rest of the day's activities. The only minor hiccup was having our last performance moved another hour later, which had us all rushing to arrive for our secondaries. I arrive at the house around 4:30. Get food, clothes, and head straight for the box office where I was situated until about an hour ago. Box Office was quiet, the customers were pleasant. Is this the quiet before another storm? That's all speculation, for now I'll just be happy to was a pleasant day. Tonight's post will be short, because I must be making my way to the horizontal plane of my pillow. Let's see what happens Thursday.

Play of the Day: Once upon a time in the jungle there was a tiger who was mad because he was very hungry. he looked up to see a bird perched in a tree. The tiger thought the bird looked tasty and tried to catch it. All over the jungle they went, but the bird was too fast. Eventually they both became so tired that one collapsed in a nearby tree and the other on the ground. While collecting their breath, a gorilla walks in, she is very sad because she has lost her family. The tiger has great pity for the gorilla. In order for the tiger to get his food, the gorilla her family, and the bird to, well, just stay alive, they all decide that maybe they can help each other. First, they try to feed the tiger: they gave him a banana. But, the banana was really gross-tasting and the tiger could barely down one bite. A man passes by on a nearby road and drops what looks to be a steak. The tiger desperately tries to claw it off the road, but it is stuck--turns out it was actually a huge piece of dirty bubble gum. In despair, they all try to figure out what to do. Suddenly another man comes along, but he is a friend of the wild, there to visit animals of the jungle. He hears of each animals plight and just so happens to have a t-bone steak, which leaves the tiger in heavenly munching bliss. He reveals to the gorilla that he has found her family. And, the bird, happily, will leave uneaten.

The end.
