Pitter Patter

Yesterday’s corner time: 5 Minutes.

It was a weekend of mixed emotions - some of which were very confusing.

I think my friend Max may fancy Becca. He’s completely besotted by her womanly charms and refuses to play with me anymore, preferring instead to hold her hand all the time.

This is completely unacceptable. What is he thinking - she’s only half his age. Is he having a mid-life crisis at three years old? He’ll be driving a convertible go-cart next and getting his ears pierced. I just hope he snaps out of it soon - I want my friend back.

Becca is certainly sneaky – she keeps finding new and perverse ways of irritating me. If stealing my friend wasn’t bad enough, then she has now also started to walk.

In some respects, this is exciting as I can now chase her and push her over. However, on the other hand, I’ve lost my primary mode of transport.

I’ve tried to encourage her to crawl again, so that I can hop onto her back but she seems physically incapable of bending any more. I tried whacking her in the stomach but she still remained rigid and retaliated by poking me in the eye.

Her increased reach is another downside of her newfound ability. She appears to be becoming an increasingly worthy adversary with each passing day.

I checked and I still can’t reach the “Art of War” on our bookcase but it shouldn’t be much longer.

Matthew.

It's important here to remember two words: Payback and vindication. Both of which she will have in short order. Soon she will be big enough and mobile enough to fight back and will become smarter than you are. Women always are. Run. Run for your life (if you know what's good for you).

now is teh time to start buttering her up, maybe she will forget your past misdeeds.Later when you can actually reach and read teh art of war you can kibosh the truce and attack with new vigor

Hi Goob. I don't think I like those two words. Can we try some others?

Hi Fidget - I like your thinking - very devious ;-)

I'm fairly clueless about women now and I think my Dad is too. So, I think you may be right :-)

I thnk girl Sticky People are like girl kitties... they're just rude. Ok, not ALL girl kitties are rude, just the outside stray girl kitties. They PRACTICE rude. I think you should stay away from them. And from anyone captivated by their charms. They have those, you know. They get all "ooooh you're so cute" and when you start to believe it, BAM! Rudeness alllll over the place...

Max, I think you're right. They cannot be trusted. I trust Becca about as far as I can throw her - which isn't very far at the moment but I'm working on that.

I have an idea; wait till u can reach the book, wait until she isn't looking and clout her on the back of the head! Payback in it's most painful form. Sweet.
