Spit Balls: Now More Than Ever

Posted on: 06/12/04, 15:23:00
I've mentioned before that one of Peanut's favorite games is to make spit balls out of paper. Any paper. Paper I put in his cage or on his play gym for that specific purpose, paper he can reach while on the play gym (bills, for example), paper he can reach while sitting with me on the couch (books, for example). You can imagine how difficult (and entertaining) it can be trying to put groceries away, with all those paper bags everywhere. Go ahead, imagine. I'll try to get pictures one day.

This time, the excitement came when I went to put new paper in the Finsterium. Now, every few weeks I pile up lots of layers on the two sides of the Big House, so that I simply take away a layer to clean up. But the middle tray gets cleaned out every day, so every day I put new paper in. Today, Peanut saw me, and took a few minutes out of his normal snacking schedule to make a whole mess of spitballs.
