Musashi Sez:
So I had orijinlee plannd on bein FrankenKitty fer
Holloween. I figgerd I cud get one of them long scrooz out of mom’s toolbox an
tie it to my collr, an run around sayin, “Ror, ror, ror!” But then I found out
that Frankenstein was akshullee a doctr, an mom doesn’t haz a stethrscop fer me
to wayr. She has this blod preshoor thin that is almos as big as me, an at
first I figgrd that I cud drag that aroun an threaten to tayk peeple’s blod
preshoor while I was sayin, “Ror, ror, ror,” to skayr them. Then I relized that
if folks has the high blod preshoor, they shudn’t be scayrt lik that, cuz it
not nice. I try to be considrit that way.
So then I thogtid about how mai mom has been lukin at
clotheziz an joolree wift her frend Amandr. Maybe I cud be a fashun dezignr,
lik that gy Eltin Jon whu haz all them sunglassiz, but I not lik singin, or
even listenin to that TV sho, Glee, so I givd that ideer up, too.
Then we hadsd the big storm, an I wentid on the kapyootr to
see about the damidge. Parentlee, lotsa bildins got damidged all over the
plays. Roofs went flyin (kinda lik they did wen I was in Oz, resintlee)
an trees threw their brantchiz at peoples (kinda lik mai frend Fanghorn in
Middul Erth, wher I whuz resintlee too, tho I not sposed to tell yu about that).
Also, som cars got all scrunched. An all this rebildin is goin to reqwire mor
bilders to bild it all. An I thogtid, “AHA! That whut I do! I’ll be Bob the
Bilder!!!”
This Bob fellr is veree optimalistical. If yu aksks him,
“Can yu bild it?” he sez, “Yes, I can!” Also he got this cool yellr hat an a
toolbelt. So now mom an me is figgrin out how to mayk me a toolbelt. She asked
me whut kinda toolz I figgr I am goin to need. An I sed all I noe is that a
claw clipper was NOT one of them. She asked me whut I wanted to bild. An I sed,
“A bird feeder, so I kin watch the birdeez from clos up.”
So she sed she wud lend me a hammr an a scroo-dryver, but
she aksked me how I wuz goin to yooz them in mai noo bildin compnee givin that
I not has the posabul thumz. An I sed I wud hire sqwirrulz as contractrz an I
wud hand them mai toolz to yooz.
Also, in between mai naps, I kin practis maykin estimits, lik thees heer kitteez I findid on the kapyootr wen I wuz doin mai researtch. It turn out that a big part of bein a suksessful bildr is tellin peeples not to get their hopes up.
