Notes from Ferdy - The Gremlin's School Day Debriefing
Every school day, when The Gremlin gets home from school, she gives Bruce and myself a breathless recitation of the day's news. Today's news was that she accidentally got hurt while being beaten up by a close friend.
Apparently, yesterday she was pretending to be upset about something, and this got her on the hit list of the girl gang that pretends to beat people up. Although every effort is made to insure that the pretend beatings cause no damage, accidents do happen. The Gremlin had interrupted her original story to explain the initiation rites for the pretend-beating gang, which apparently had something to do with which of her friends was in charge of administering the pretend beating, when Bruce had another of his dizzy spells and left the room. I, of course, stayed for the whole story so that I would be available if The Gremlin needed to feed me a cheese snack or something.
No cheese snack was forthcoming, but she gave me skritches, and that's good, too.
Respectfully submitted,
Ferdinand T. Cat
