Meowy happy Monday morning.
It's me, Piglet. I've absconded--uh, comandeered--um, hijacked--no, that's not it, either. I've graciously agreed to write today's blog post. Only shh! Don't tell Sarita. She's still in bed with the guy who brings my food. I think she said he's a pain in her neck or something. No, that's not right, I don't think. I've known them for a lot of years and I've never heard her say he's a pain in her anything. So I'm not exactly sure what the deal is but hey, who cares? All I know is I've got the keyboard...the world is at my pawtips.
Listen, if you're here hoping for one of those sappy Wednesday stories or a post about the whole NaNoNutjobWriting thing you're out of luck. Just move along now, find another writer who's blogging about that stuff today. I don't do sap. And, for obvious reasons, I don't write so I don't have any word counts, plot twists or characters to share. And my upcoming releases? Heh heh heh...I'm pretty sure you don't want to hear about that, do you?
So what am I going to chat about this cloudy, gray morning? Nothing. Nada. Niente. Zip. Zero. Zilch. Nossir, not a thing. No chat.
This is my blog post so I'm going to show you some stuff. Let's see if your as observant as I think you are. I'm hoping you'll be able to solve a mystery for me. I asked Sarita, and I think she knows what's up, but she's not talking. So it's all in your hands...
Yesterday I took a walk around the farm. There are loads of interesting spots out here in the middle of nowhere, and I think I checked out most of them. I was searching, you see. And a search? Well, it's not a really good search unless you poke into lots of spots. I'll show you what I looked for...
I looked in all the usual places
but I couldn't find even one of pink things.
Where'd they all go?
of these flying, chirpy things.
They lived in those houses the food guy built.
Yesterday?
Couldn't find one of them.
Not even a feather.
A lot.
Looked high and low,
but they're all gone.
How could they leave without telling me?
They're always in the same spot.
Year after year, I know where to find them
Now?
All gone. Every single one of them.
Disappeared.
I tell you, it's a mystery.
I was pretty bummed about these
being gone, too.
I like to lick them when no one's looking.
But that's just between us, you hear?
I can't figure out who would do it, though.
These are prickly as all get-out
but they smell real good.
Must've been a thief with cement fingers.
The yard is empty.
No fluttering.
No flapping.
No fun.
So sad.
I ask you, where did everything go?
Huh?
Huh?
HUH?
And how am I supposed to do this...
in this?And how am I supposed to do this...

Hey Piglet,
You did a great post - love all the beautiful photos too!
Poor Piglet, I feel your pain. Just remember, you'll get your flowers and flying things next year around April.
Pretty pics! I miss all my flowers too. :(
How cute! I loved every word. And here's some advice - stay in bed all day.
Thanks for blogging, Piglet! And I love the photos. It's great how opposable thumbs aren't necessary now with digital cameras!
Ah, I love it! What a great post. Have your cat blog again sometime. And your pictures are great. Or did the cat take them?
