Twenty Four: The penguin takeover.

Hello, I'm a Penguin and I'm taking over Beth's blog. I would have a name but Beth was too lazy  couldn't think of one (suggestions?). Beth and I had the following conversation this morning:

Beth: Penguin, can you write my blog for me?
Penguin: Yeah, sure.
Beth: Thank you.
Penguin: What do you want to me to say in it?
Beth: I'm not sure.
Penguin: *sigh* I could interview you, would that help?
Beth: Yes, it would.
Penguin: How are you today?
Beth: Tired...four hours sleep isn't good.
Penguin: Marvellous. And how do you feel last night went?
Beth: Oh just fabulously.
Penguin: You're a bit of an idiot, aren't you?
Beth: Yes. And when I admitted it, I actually managed to prove my own point. I haven't done that before.
Penguin: So you've sunk to new levels of idiocy.
Beth: You could say that.
Penguin: Alright, if you weren't an idiot, how would have last night have gone?
Beth: I'd have explained that I want to view him as a friend, and it'd have been okay.
Penguin: Keeping it simple, then.
Beth: Yes.
Penguin: Do you not think you're over reacting a bit?
Beth: Yes, but-
Penguin: -it's only because you care, blah, blah. You care what people think of you too much.
Beth: Well...yes and no. Yes, I care what my friends think of me, because they're my friends. But I've stopped caring so much about what complete strangers think of me. I've come to the realisation that they're complete strangers and therefore mean very little to me.
Penguin: This is sounding pathetic. How are you going to pay me for this?
Beth: You want paying?
Penguin: Yes. In fish.
Beth: No. You know I can't go anywhere near the fish counter in Tesco's. They smell and they stare at me with their eyes.
Penguin: Then I'll ask no more questions.

Seeing as Beth refused to pay me, that ended our interview. I personally think Beth's a right idiot and needs to be slapped with a fish.

Beth and I would like to wish you all a very Happy Christmas, because there's very little chance she'll blog tomorrow.

[Note from Beth: I since found Penguin trying to steal the tuna out of the cupboard, so he's now confined to my room for the rest of the day, where he's sulking. Tough. It's Christmas tomorrow so I'll have to let him out.]

Penguin xxx :)
