My daughter telling me she is already finished getting ready for school and she's ready for breakfast. I drag myself out of bed and go to the.....

kitchen to start a pot of coffee. I ask my daughter what she'd like for breakfast and she says ...

[MelindaH]

cleaning out the play room and their closets for ...

[PamB]

all the clothes and toys they are giving to the under-privilieged children of

[momofthecrazy4]

Africa. I reminded her about what we had watched on T.V just a few nights earlier. She was soooo excited about.............

[ccmentor]

finally being able to give her little brother away to those who deserved more. As I sat down to check my email all of a sudden..........

[momofthecrazy4]

[momofthecrazy4]

Puddle left by my sister-in-laws puppy.......

[ccmentor]

Where I knew it would sit until.....

[momofthecrazy4]

My sister-in-law got back to pick up her puppy.

[mommy2kadin]

So, I figured I should do something more productive, so I

[2BoysMom]

started calling up all my family and telling them about ...

[Oletta]

conspiracy theories, like the one about...

[MelindaH]

Brenda and Stacy from Gotta Pixel ...
(let's make it funny, hee hee! I love these GP stories. :grin:)

[momofthecrazy4]

[Oletta]

wandered into Area 51 and...

[katt]

pulled out her camera from her pocket and took pictures of..............

[froggypond]

the space aliens, stacy was teasing her about her ...

[rviam]

and then it occurred to her, she should take the little alien and go.....

[photocrazy]

and go to Disneyland with it! As she started packing....

[ccmentor]

she couldn't remember what she would need and the alien wasn't helping matters as he threw things out the suitcase mumbling incoherently about.......

[Lori11941]

high priced tourist t-shirts and mouse ears

[froggypond]

with that, she decided she had to pack some extra money and find a good hiding place to board the alien on the plane. she was tickled pink when she came up with the idea to ....

[ccmentor]

slip the alien into a false bottom suitcase and put him in the overhead compartment on the plane. All was going well until a passenger opened the compartment and to his astonishment......

[Lori11941]

discovered the alien trying on his sunglasses and using his cell phone to make a long distance call to his planet. Oy the bill! So then the passenger ...

[MelindaH]

fainted and landed in the lap of none other than ...

(excellent addition, Lori!!!)

[ccmentor]

Nicole Kidman who was sitting with her new hubby who immediately got indignant that this man was laying in his wives lap. At this point the passenger started talking about his alien friend and all the trouble that he was causing to which the stewardess called for............

[dragonflydremer]

a straight jacket and a sock..... (so he could put a sock in it!)

[ccmentor]

but the words got mixed up and she brought.......

[froggypond]

a snack instead of a sock, and a white jacket, instead of a straight jacket. well, the little alien was thrilled! he put the jacket on and was spilling juice and pieces of cheese all over himself. the passenger who snuck him on the plane was dumfounded. suddenly, the rest of the planes passengers ...

[MelindaH]

joined in song with the now singing alien in a rousing version of ...

[rviam]

"We are family, I got all my sister's with me" and then halfway through the song, one passenger stood up and yelled.....

[momofthecrazy4]

what is wrong with you people. He is green and blue can't you tell he needs.....

[katt]

a medic! Just then the captain made an announcement over the speakers.....

[froggypond]

"this plane is being diverted to another planet"....we had been ordered by the president to return the alien immediately, or ....

[2BoysMom]

We will have to feed you this stuff in the wrapped plastic. It looks like ...

[ccmentor]

the intestines of a cow but tastes like.........

[2BoysMom]

Well, we're not exactly sure what our final destination is. I could even be ...

[katt]

dreaming. I pinched myself to be sure, but was quite surprised when ............

[2BoysMom]

I didn't feel anything. They must have given me something that would make me numb! But, my legs were working so that didn't make any sense. If only Brenda ...

[froggypond]

were here. she and loofah have that magic potion that would...

[momofthecrazy4]

turn us all green and blue so the little alien will fit right in with us. I think the little guy is....

[katt]

looking at me and I feel kind of funny. His eyes are rather hypnotic and I am trying to ...................

[2BoysMom]

read his mind to see if he really is nice of if he is ...

[katt]

really a spy from his planet and he is here to steal out digi-scrapping techniques. I quickly think of a clever way to find out............

[loofah]

but first it is going to take some preparation. I shut my eyes and

[casey1]

think of ways to detour the alien from . . . .

[loofah]

his plans. Needing some inspiration I take some chocolate out of my pocket and

[photocrazy]

ate it quickly before he saw it. But, he saw the wrapper in my hand and asked....

[loofah]
