Today, I watched Julie very thoroughly as she shaved her legs and plucked stray slightly ingrown hairs. It was riveting. She was very confused as to why I found this so incredibly fascinating.

Gordon came over, and I have decided I actually like him quite a bit, and enjoyed his company. Matthew had some "el-jay" emergency, though, so he went upstairs and then Gordon left. But not before giving me a little bit of the bread from his sandwich. I like Gordon.

Julie took me upstairs with my playgym (they keep calling it the "Poo Palace") and we sat on the bed while she read a book. I could hear Matthew, though, and it was making me crazy, I knew he was just in the other room, but he would not come in and see me. :( I like having all my flock in one place.

When I started to get too agitated about this, Julie decided we should go for a walk around the neighborhood. First we went to the neighbor's house to see if they wanted to come with, and they didn't. So, we went to the fruit stand on the corner down the street, and the guy there gave me peanuts in the shell! OH THE RAPTURE, OH THE JOY, OH THE PERFECTION OF THIS SMALL DELIGHT!!! It is a perfect package to chew on, it crunches and I can pierce it and I can crunch it right up and tear it apart, and once I've done that, there's this little tasty nugget inside! Oh the loveliness. This guy was now my best friend. Before the peanut, he was just some guy I didn't really care for that much. After the peanut, I wouldn't mind if he came home with me, so long as he took the peanuts with him. However, after some reflection, I realized he was a bit nervous around me and misinterpreted my movements and was a bit scared. He was too twitchy. But mmm, peanuts. Julie (who was now covered in small bits of peanut shell) was going to buy me a small handful of peanuts, but he gave them to me for FREE!!

I liked this man very much and gave him a kiss before we left.

Julie also bought some nectarines, a mango, a pear, some cucumber and ...I lost interest, mainly when she picked up the cucumber, I stopped caring. I am pretty much all about the peanuts. And nectarines.

After we left the fruit stand, we kept walking around the block and people in their cars would slow down to look at me and wave at me. Pretty much everyone loves me and thinks I'm great. This, of course, does NOT go straight to my head. When we got home, Julie let me sit on the swinging bench and we ate nectarines and mango.

Then, mid-bite, I realized that there were some people on the other side of the fence, talking. Why were they not coming in to the patio to talk with me? I kept doing the "come here" motion, but they did not come to me. I guess I made a big fuss out of it, because Julie picked me up and took me over to the other side of the fence to say hi. I don't think they knew what to make of this. I think they thought we were a bit daft.

I started feeling very sleepy after that, and kept yawning (which made Julie yawn, too), so we went inside and I took a nap.

When Matthew was done with his "el jay" emergency, he gave me a peanut!!! I tore it completely apart. Then I napped again. Matthew and Julie left after a while and I got to snooze.

They're back now, and though the cover is over my cage, I'm fiddling around in here. I can't sleep when they're down here making noise. Well, I can, but really, I've been napping since early evening, so I'm not that tired anymore.

I like Saturdays, though, we can do fun things on Saturdays. Maybe tomorrow they'll take me to the toy store so I can see that cute guy that works there so I can try to Jedi Mind Trick him some more.
