Long Time No Write!!!

I suppose it is update time. My secretary really needs to be fired because she has been doing a lousy job of keeping everyone updated. I am pretty much recovered from my illness. My cellmates have been trying to get me sick again but so far they have failed!!

I have a new morning Warden and I just love her! She is so nice to me and I am always happy to see her. Actually, she has been out of town this week so I have been having to have someone else take care of me. Yesterday she said "Hi Jake" when Mommy dropped me off. Mommy said, "Hi Zachary." The temporary warden said that Jake and I look so much a like. Mommy doesn't think so because I am way cuter. Mommy also says that Jake's parents know that I am cuter too. Daddy told Mommy that he doesn't think that Jake's parents realize that I am the better looking one. Mommy told Daddy that if they don't know it then they are just blind and dumb. Mommy also quickly added that she is not biased, she is simply honest! Anyway, I got off point. This morning when Mommy dropped me off, the warden said "Hi Zachary." Mommy quickly responded, "You mean Hi Jake!" The warden laughed but said that wasn't very nice!!

Daddy and I have been doing our usual doughnut run on Saturdays. Lately we have wrapped Starbucks into our journey. The other weekend the Starbuckians gave Daddy extra shots in his coffee for some doughnuts! Can you believe that Daddy gave away some of my doughnuts just for some extra shots of coffee??? Anyway, last Saturday Daddy had the doughnut lady divide our doughnuts up into two boxes. Then we headed off to Starbucks...ha!! The doughnut swappers were off!!! It worked out though because Aunt Patty, Uncle Fester, Ryan and Jessica came over so we had doughnuts for them too. Can you believe that Uncle Fester ate all my doughnuts!!! Then he tried to get onto Aunt Patty saying she ate too many doughnuts. My Aunt Patty loves me and wouldn't eat all my doughnuts. She kept giving me the doughnuts! Daddy gave me a doughnut and a cookie for breakfast on Sunday. He got into trouble when Mommy woke up and found out that he didn't give me anything nutritious for breakfast. Mommy just needs to mind her own business. What Daddy and I decide to have for breakfast should just be between us men folk. Daddy will have to explain to me one day what he means by it just doesn't work that way.

I am still having a great love affair with the vacuum. I just love that Kirby!!!! The first thing I do every day when I get home and when I get up in the morning is to make sure that the vacuum has not left the house. The vacuum did make me mad last week because it kept falling over. Mommy got tired of me crying and screaming about it, so she spanked the vacuum, told it that it was a bad vacuum and sent it to bed without dinner. I am only 13 months old (at the time) so I can admit it without being called names. I fell for it. I was completely satisfied with the vacuum getting spanked and sent to bed without dinner. Served it right!! I had the same issue with the vacuum cleaner the next night. Mommy really thought that I might be gullible and tried punishing the vacuum again. What was she thinking??? I may have fallen for that trick once but hey, I was a day older and I wasn't going to fall for it again!!

Next topic--Tongue depressors. Sommer got into trouble because Mommy told her not to step on my two grape tongue depressors that were on the floor of the car (I have a collection of tongue depressors that the doctor gives me. I usually end up throwing them at the doctor but I like hang onto several). So what did Sommer do??? That's right, she stepped on my tongue depressors. I have been collecting them and since her nasty shoes got all over my sticks Mommy won't let me play with them. Sommer had to get me two new grape tongue depressors. Mommy says that Sommer got me a box of 50 grape tongue depressors and a box of 50 cherry tongue depressors. Mommy won't get the boxes for me and only took two replacement grapes and two penalty cherries. So now when ever I see Sommer I can beg her for a couple of tongue depressors for my collection.

We that is all for now--I think!!! Ooohhhh!! Where's Joey??
