Mayhem in the Monkey House!

Those two little monkeys got me again! Wacky Zacky and Zany Janie were happily playing together with the dollhouse. I decided I would have enough time to run upstairs and download pictures from Wacky Zacky's birthday party onto my computer. I became engrossed in the pictures and lost all track of time. All of a sudden my ears hurt-not from a high pitch yelp, but rather from the distressing sound of silence! Silence is rarely heard in the Zany house and from experience it always means trouble! I quietly raced downstairs and caught Wacky Zacky standing on a bar stool he had shoved up to a cabinet. He was greedily shoving left over birthday cake into his mouth. I must admit I was impressed that he was civilized enough to use a fork to feed himself rather than shovel fistfuls of cake into his mouth. I quickly realized Zany Janie was not at the foot of the stool begging for cake. I quickly scanned the area and found her in the family room quietly sucking on not one, but FIVE suckers at once! Wacky Zacky "The Master Manipulator" had given her the suckers to keep her from screaming "Cake!" and alerting me that they were up to no good! When I reached to take the suckers away from her I was greeted by shrieks that can only be described as something you hear in a monkey house when it's feeding time. I was able to get all five suckers away without losing a finger, but it was close...I must say Zany Janie has mastered the glare to use during her teenage years!

Zany thought of the day: Did the owl ever figure out how many licks it took to get to the center of a tootsie pop? Is it just me or is anyone else puzzled that an owl would even be eating a tootsie pop let alone even care how many licks it took to get to the center?
