My Thanksgiving — On A Boat

That's right, I'm on a boat.

The big dumb guy went away for four days over Thanksgiving. What he doesn’t know is I know how to get out of this cage. Yup, that’s right. How do you think I get to the computer to write all of these blog entries? I may be tiny, and my brain may be the size of a Skittle, but I got enough brawn to push open that latch on the front of the prison.

So, lots of times when he’s asleep, I wander the house, watch his new HDTV (I *heart* Animal Planet HD!) and tease his pet rats who are too dumb to be able to get out of their cage. Yeah, that’s right, Leroy and Jethro! Want some Hammy meat? Ha, that’s what I thought.

But since I knew the big dumb guy was going to be gone for days, I decided it was time for a proper adventure. So I got the 10:15 bus on Route 3 in front of our apartment building and then got on a Greyhound in Philly. You see, I’m so small, the drivers don’t notice me. No ticket needed.

Anyway, I got to Jacksonville and hooked up with my buddies Andy, Kiv and T-Pain, and we went out on a boat and made a music video. I even brought my swim trunks and my flippy-floppies. Ha. Unfortunately, they cut me out of the final video, though, so you won’t see me on MTV. But it was a lot of fun.

We spent a night out on the town in Flor-I-Da, and then it was back on a bus and back into the cage before the big dumb guy got home. When he did get home, he walked into the room and opened up the cover to my den while I was zonked out, exhausted from the trip. “Well, you look tired, Harry. What you been doing, running on your wheel too much?” Ha, if he only knew…
