July 12 - 26 2003

Greetings friends! I, your friendly pink piggy, am once again back. This has been a busy two weeks!

To begin with right after I'd posted my last entry a horrible thing happened - our air conditioner blew up! It started pouring water down the wall and shooting out white foamy stuff! It was horrible - I was very concerned that we would all end up drowning! Luckily, Charlie woke up (they were asleep when this happened) and turned it off before anyone was seriously injured.

After that we had no air conditioner for several days. It was soooooooo hot, and soooooooo muggy! We only have one fan, and of course The-Short-One hogged it the whole time, so we had to take drastic measures to stay cool. The house got quite messy, as all she did was sit on the couch and whine. Luckily we have gotten our air-conditioning back and she has finally gotten the house as clean as it ever gets.

A good thing did happen - we won the baseball game! I am so happy! Clownie had a bad cold so that when he gave his team directions no one could understand him. "Do adead ad dry id," that is what he sounded like. It was chaos, hee-hee! But, we won 20 - 5! We get to play Booy's team next month.

Speaking of colds, I had a nasty cold myself for a few days. I can tell you it was NO fun. I had a runny nose and a cough and I was soooooooo sleepy. I spent a long time sitting on the couch with a box of Kleenexes. Doggie made me chicken soup, and Clownie kept me cheered up (he was over his cold by then). Pretty much everyone has either had the cold or has it now. Luckily I am pretty much over it all.

Oh! The asphalting is all done! It isn't even asphalt, it's black top! Yes, black top! I don't know whether I like it or not yet. We had a really nice rain this week and when we went outside to play in ti the black top was still so hot from the sun shining on it all day that it ruined the pathetic water puddle. Speaking of our apartment building, it has been awhile since I gave you any gossip! Charlie has made buddies with the person out of one of the apartments. It's a guy with glasses who's name I don't remember. I think Charlie works with him somewhere or something. Also the next door apartment has a crazy guy in it. I think I told you that the woman moved out? Well anyway, a guy and a girl moved in. The girl moved out and the guy has been sort of batty. He yells "Argh" all night and plays his music really loud. He has stopped doing it lately, but I am not fooled.

The people who own the dog are also still here - they have gotten a new porch. They also have yard, a clothes line and a water spigot. All things that no one else has. I guess Charlie and The-Short-One and that guy with glasses are all a bit upset, not that I blame them. Ooooooh! Remember last October when Dolphin-Girl and Curly-Top stayed with us for a couple of months? Well, no one had heard anything from them until the other day. Apparently they are still alive and living with Curly-Top's Dad, something like that.

Hmmmmmm..... Not much else to write about. Guess I will let you go, my dear friends,

Ta-Ta,
O


This is me looking at the exploding air conditioner in fear for my little piggy life!
Here is Pigelty-Wigelty, Doggie, Me, Moos, Edgar and Booy trying to stay cool while the air conditioner was broken.
Here I am with my nasty cold. Don't I look miserable?
This is me, Henry, Hug-Me and Spud out in the rain on the hot asphalt.
