Timmy the Prodigal Monkey

Recently, I acquired a pet monkey from thinkgeek.com and it seems that monkey has gone missing. When I returned to the office a while ago I noticed that he was missing, and assuming that one of my people was messing with me, I immediately bought another. Well, it would appear that I was incorrect and timmy decided that he had to do for himself what I had been failing to do.

I had specifically bought him as a focus item for some fun and lighthearted photography which was intended to provide a "garden gnome" element to my site.

Apparently he has spirited away with a small low quality digital camera and is exploring the world on his own.

timmy.jpgWELL!!! Let me tell ya the BIG world is not only out there...it is OUT THERE!!!! From chess wiht the boys in the heat to trying to find a cool place to sleep. And boy do I stink!!! I had to find the washing machine and was in turn directed to this facility kwhere they wash your clothes for you. What a deal that is, no wonder you like it here in the OUT THERE. Here is a picture of my laundry being weighed (minus me of course).

Just wanted you to know that I am doing fine and wiht clean clothes. hey, tell me about this "wire" and being "outside". I hear its pretty exciting, but is it a wire that shocks you? Will it hurt? Do I need any type of "gear"? Well I am off to do some research about this whole "wire" thing.

My advice to timmy: If you're looking to go outside the wire, go in an up-armored vehicle, and take a bullet-proof vest and a sidearm if you can get one.

How sad for Timmy that he had to run away from home to meet his higher purpose, but you really can't blame him! You brought him there for fun and adventure, then stuck him on your desk. You know how unexciting sitting AT your desk is, so imagine how boring sitting ON your desk must be! Rather than replace Timmy (yet another insult!) you should laud him for his courage, his adventerous spirit, and his cleverness for finding a way out to explore the big OUT THERE that you promised him! Huzzah for Timmy!

well.. I found your blog and am touched that you decided to post me. You do care.. how touching. It makes me miss you a little, but to tell the truth, I am having too much fun to come back.

Maybe we should discuss our future together, there is always hope. I did ask for a hooch close by yours, and you just missed me at DFAC 4 yesterday, I had to duck behind a soldiers big boot. I still care about you, and at night, I am scared. That is when I miss you most.

I freed a stuffed parrot, once. It kept its journal for awhile, and then a first grader parrot-napped him. So who knows where he is or what he is up to now.
