Mom came home tonaight and she brought in a whole bunch of those bags that Pipi's so scared of, they make that crunchy noise and awl. But she always stops at the last meenute because she realizes that her 'nummy num' is in there somewhere.
Anywah, mom went "upstairs" to the kitchen and got busy right away. Awl those bags were left down there, "downstairs".
And the door was left open to the forbidden place ... the place where mom always comes from, outsade. This waus mah chance. There was no way Pipi waus gonna hold me back, no warnin' she tried to tale me... Ah cawnvinced her to just stay bah the door to be the lookout.
So Ah ventured through the door to see what awl was out there, see what Ah could fand, what Ah could discover and explore. And explore Ah deed.. Ah found plenty. Ah found this dark thang just waiting for me to grab it with mah mouth, it pretty much looked to me laike it might've bean alive.
Next thang Ah know, mom is at the door [and I see his orange butt bobbing away at the back of the car in the -closed-garage].
Ah quickly disappeared from her sight, went the uther wah and then made it back to the door bafawre she could see me.
"Googie!! What did you DO?!!", Pipi urged me. "She's right there! She's gonna see you!" Ah turned around while still bah the door and mom was looking right at me. Ah still had mah big game in mah mouth and waus looking for a good place to plop it down when Ah realized that mom was after it too. Ah mean, the moment she saw me with the thang hanging from mah mouth, she wanted it so badly, she just charged at me and tried to get it!!
Aw, NO!! Nawwww! You ain't gonna git this out of mah mouth, it's MINE. She reached over at me again but Ah ran upstairs and out of her reach. Ah could hear her scream after me, yelling "NO! NO!", but Ah wouldn't have any. This thang? Was MINE, and nobody's gonna take it away from me. This is mah first big game.
Ah kept it dangling from mah mouth while evading mom's reach every time. Ah ran awl the way "upstairs", under the [desk], then ran to her room, and awl the while she'd be just within a leetle space within reach but Ah kept escaping.
Ah finally went downstairs under the big thang in the main room [under the dining table] for cover. And Ah ate it.
She came down just after Ah had finished it off. "WHAT did you DO?!!!.. Ahhhh!!! ", she screamed. Ah waus no longer so keen to escape her naw. Ah just bounced over to the kitchen and went to the corner and sat down. The deed was done and Ah waus just gonna get out of her way and face the music awl at once. "You're gonna get SICK!", she screamed at me.
That's awkay - just don't take mah big game away from me.
Ah hung out bah the kitchen floor like nuthing happened. And then when mom went to do whatever she does on the thang [computer], Ah decided Ah waus gonna make mah approach. But she flicked her head abruptly at me, and we made eye contact. Intense eye contact, Ah might admeet. Ah suddenly stopped mah stride, mah eyes got bigger, as Ah quickly studied her face. Nope, this is steel nawt a good time. Ah'm gonna gingerly pass on bah, and let 'er cool down a little more.
[He's now plopped on the other side of my laptop -- but is not trying to ingratiate himself by rubbing his face to mine like usual.]
[Gabriel forayed into the closed garage space while I still had groceries to bring in from the car and found an old brown crunchy leaf. I suppose I gave it more value by attempting to take it out of his mouth.]
