Oh crap just why did I do it, why did I get a monkey, yes you heard me a monkey? Now wait a minute before you get started listen to me have you ever carried one of them around on your back? I know you have — and man they are heavy, sometimes weighing even a ton. Yeah that monkey can be heavy especially if you feed him but then sometimes he is not so heavy, you hardly even know he is on your back. That monkey moves around pretty quick at times. Yeah…..sometimes I carry him on my back and just about the time I get use to him there—-you guessed it he plays games- with me, he hides —-Hide and seek . I guess he figures I might get rid of him or at least put him back in his cage or something because he moves—-yep from my back he jumps to my mind and boy does he play games there. The Merry go rides begin—-oh no , I think I might get sick , no, pleaseā¦.yep.
You know the monkey mind—-the chattering in your head, jumping in your mind, you do have a mind? I wonder at times but yeah I have one–and just when — there he goes, what was it? Damn there he is again. Do you understand what happens if you have a monkey? Yeah he jumps from thought to thought and all I want to do is daydream. No that is not true I think about my family, my friends, and oh yeah Ms. Worry visits and I think about the future. Oh crap now everything is just going around in circles and I was trying to think , now I’m just damn confused.
I am trading this monkey in, yep I know I can now what am I going to get? Never mind I don’t need anything else, I feed all the stray cats in the neigborhood and have managed to tame one wild cat and named him Max. Max mated with Prissy the neighbor’s cat that lives here because we feed her better. I now have new kittens under the house…so out goes the monkey…in comes the kitties, when Ms. Prissy says its time but only if King Smoltz agrees.
Until the next time, we meet here on the Porch keep the monkey off your back and smile, enjoy life for Life Is Simply Good.

Never hold discussions with the monkey when the organ grinder is in the room.

AHA! So is that a lot of my problem? I have a monkey too? As cute as they can be at times, I’ll have to get rid of mine too.
Ahhh, that felt good.
Now, where’s my lemonade? Wait, I see Mike was here before me, did he drink mine again?? Better make me a double then. I’m fixin’ to be here a while.
Let’s go hunt for the kittens, should we??

Damn monkeys, all they do is thump their chests and play with their bananas. Monkeys be gone. And here, take this big bag of stuff with you too. HEH!

One grown cat is enough for me. I already have to chase after two kids (three if you count the hubster), work my tush off, and take care of my spoiled Sissy. Yeah I will gladly look at, cuddle, and play with little kitties, but don’t try to talk me into adopting one…don’t you do it! hehehe

The monkey is the pet you didnt want but when its sleeping new soft kittens are a pleasant change.

Has something happened? You seem to have had a recent epiphany. Hope you’re OK my dear. You do seem happier, actually - I’m just a tad concerned; making sure everything’s on track. Be happy, sweetie.

Spank the monkey and get it off your back.
April 26th, 2006 at 12:36 pm
I love kittens. I have two cats here, both of which used to be strays and have now been shown the good life.

That dern monkey, makes such a mess of things. I keep locking mine up, but he is an escape artist and just when I least expect him, it’s out, running rampage all over the place.
I’d rather the kittens.
Now, if Karen would stop hogging the lemonade…

Bad Monkey! No banana!
Silly simian is such a pain at times…. Hope you can get yours back into a locked closet and get some peace.
