Well, today started off productive… and then I made the rookie mistake of flying too close to the “sensible supplies.”
You know the ones — beige folders, plain paper, not a glitter pot in sight.
I’d flapped up to the top cupboard, thinking I’d be helpful and pull out the neutral trims Jenny mentioned (I thought she said she needed them!). But before I knew it — WHOOOSH — one wrong wingbeat and bam! I was knee-deep in a pile of lace, tangled in ribbon, and for reasons I still don’t understand… stuck to a roll of double-sided tape.
I squawked for help (quietly — Lyn was nearby having a cuppa), but no one came. So I did what any sensible seagull would do — made a nest and called it “intentional.” I also glitter-bombed myself to mark the occasion.
Eventually Jenny came looking for her good scissors and found me snoozing in a pile of scraps with a doily over my face. She didn’t even flinch. Just handed me a wet wipe and said, “You’d better write this down in the log.”
So here we are.
Moral of the story: some cupboards are best left to the humans…
…and there’s no such thing as too much sparkle when you’re trying to look helpful.
