so tell me


So tell me, Peepers, do you ENJOY bein' a stupidy dupidy dupe?


Well DO you?


Actually, don't bother answerin' that.  It was more of a rhetorical question, you see.


MOUSES!


But on the other paw...


On the other paw, maybe you don't so much enjoy bein' a stupidy dupidy dupe, as uh...


Well, um...


Well maybe it's just somethin' that comes to you, naturally.


MOUSES!


Don't give me that look, Peepers.  It's your own fault, and you know it.  Yup, it's all your own fault.  One hundred and ninety three point eight percent your own fault, give or take a percentage point or two.


MOUSES!


'CAUSE IF YOU HADN'T MADE THAT JUNK ROOM OF YOURS OFF LIMITS TO SAFFY AND ME, YOU WOULDN'T HAVE LOST YOUR STUPID OL' BOOTS IN THE FIRST PLACE.  THAT'S WHY.


MOUSES!


That's right, my friends.  That's right.  In case you haven't already guessed, Peepers' three pairs of missin' boots are no longer missin'.  They have been found.  And do you know where they happened to be found?  I'll give you three guesses, although I'm bettin' you'll need only the one.


MOUSES!


Right again!  Those missin' boots were found in that junk room of hers.  The very same room Saffy had been tryin' to get into last week, before Peepers closed the door on him.


SHE CLOSED IT PRACTICALLY RIGHT IN HIS FACE!


And had she not been so incredibly rude to exclude Saffy Saffron Sassifras from that room, that day, perhaps Saffy would have noticed those three pairs of boots sittin' in bags on top of the suitcase where they were eventually found.  And had Saffron noticed those boots, when Peepers was lookin' here and there and pretty much everywhere for 'em - to no avail, I might add - Saffy might have said somethin' like: You mean those stupid boots in the bags on the silly red suitcase?


BUT OH NO...


Oh no, Peepers was bound and determined to not allow Saffron and me into her stupid ol' junk room and, bein' as unobservant as an unobservant peep can possibly be, she did not notice 'em, herself.


The boots, I mean.


And even though I'm sure she looked in that room more than once...


Peepers failed to notice the three pairs of boots in the bags, sittin' in the corner on the suitcase.


Good grief, they were sittin' there for all and sundry to see.


'Cept, of course, for the peep.


Maybe for Christmas I'll get her new glasses.


MOUSES!

    1. Yup, they were. Not much need for 'em yet, as it's 13C and rainin' today, but the snow will come. purrs

  3. Wait, so they were in that secret, off limits room that whole time? You and Saffy would have found them, like, last month, Sivvers! And then the Peep wouldn't have "lost" them. MOUSES!

    1. My point exactly, my friend. Peepers went and messed herself all up by not lettin' Saffy and me in that room. MOUSES!

  4. I am sure Saffy was just trying to tell her the boots were in there.
