Foi Na Cruz

So, I'm home today doing some much needed house cleaning while KG and the baby go to Rhode Island for Easter. I decided to wash the slip cover on the sofa. While I was at it, I cleaned underneath said sofa and recovered the following inventory of odd items:
9 toy balls, 5 toy mice, 7 books, 1 stuffed animal monkey, 1 LEGO block, 1 plastic sailboat sail, 1 sheet of unopened Elmo stickers, 1 pen, 1 necklace, 1 toilet seat washer, 2 whole crayons, 4 crayon pieces, 1 piece of CD jewel case, 72 Cheerios, 1 Kix, 1 plastic sales tag, 1 staple, 1 $39.99 price sticker, 5 pink plastic beads, 1 binky, assorted pine needles, 1 small kaleidoscope, and a herd of beedutts.
I have learned that apparently Cheerios roll better than Kix. As for the monkey's secret thoughts.... they might go something like this "I'm found. Please don't let the child lose me again." But I'm just guessing, really.

What about the mice? I like to think they were using the pine needles to herd up the beeduts as they grazed on cheerio remnants. The mice would probably see the monkey as their king/god figure, so he may've been having a pretty good time under there.

(OK, no more Joseph Campbell for me right before bedtime.)
