YOU'RE IT!Shhhh... Don't tell her where I am. Mason, I said, don't tell her where I am. Don't tell Peep #1 where I'm hiding!
AND DON'T POINT IT OUT, EITHER.
MOUSES!
Mason, you and I are gonna need to sit down and have a little chat about the concept of hide and seek, for sure.
Need I say it again? Of course I do. MOUSES!
So anyway, the first peep got a new pair of earrings. Yup, she splurged. Splurged on all of three dollars and ninety-nine cents worth of earrings.
And that was for the pair, by the way. MOUSES!
So anyway...
So anyway, she got this pair of cheap and trashy...
What's that, Peepers? They were inexpensive and sparkly, you say?
Hmmm... You can call 'em what you like, Peepers, but I'm calling 'em as I see 'em, and the way I see 'em is that they're CHEAP and TRASHY, for sure. MOUSES!So anyway, Peep #1 splurged on a pair of cheap and trashy earrings, and the first thing I said to her when I saw 'em was...
"YOU KNOW HOW MUCH NIP THOSE WOULD BUY?"
Then I found out she paid under four dollars for the complete set and I said...
"Never mind. Not all that much, I suppose. MOUSES!"
But that's when I realized something. That's when I realized that those earrings that looked like Christmas prezzies all wrapped up, and were danglin' from the peep's ears like no other pair of earrings had ever dangled before, were OBVIOUSLY meant...
AS TOYS, FOR ME. MOUSES!
So I got up all close and personal with the peep. Yup, that's right, I sidled up to her, right there on the couch. I started to purr, so as to get her to let her guard down. I allowed her to tickle my chin and give me scritches behind the ears. Then I walked onto her lap. And then, I stretched way up so that we were practically nose to nose, and I just knew... I just knew she thought I was gonna give her nose kisses which, by the way, is somethin' peeps absolutely LOVE when cats do.
And then...
And then...And then I lifted a paw...
And with one mighty swipe, I swatted one of those earrings with the mightiest of swats, cried "YOU'RE IT!" at the top of my lungs, and ran like no kitty has ever been seen runnin', before.
And that would be about the time when Mason told the peep where I was hidin' and ruined all of my fun.
MOUSES!
