As you may or may not know, Bubs of Bubblessoc.net loves octopi. So much in fact, that she decided to start a Roaming Octopus Adventure similar to the Roaming Gnomes you’ve probably heard about at some point. I signed up right away when she was looking for people to participate. I love fun stuff like this.

While I may not live in the most exciting place in the world, I hope to show her octopus a good time. I was very happy when I returned home from work to find a box outside my door. The octopus had arrived!

I shall now turn things over the little octopus and let her tell you about her adventure thus far.

Well, I arrived in Kentucky today. I was sitting outside in the heat for quite awhile just waiting for someone to get home and let me out of that box! It seemed like forever, but finally Ashley let me out! Ashley is very nice. She has a cute cat named Pouncy who was very interested in me. I also met Ashley’s husband, Colin.

I spent the rest of today resting and getting used to my new surroundings. Ashley and Colin have an ocean themed bathroom, so I felt most at home in there. Lots of fish, crabs, and octopi!

Tomorrow I’m not sure what Ashley and I will do, but I hope it’s fun!

My Roaming Octopus Photo Set can be found on Flickr. Check it out for more octopus adventures!

I wasn’t particularly excited about going to work this morning. Colin didn’t have to work today (because he worked Saturday), so I was jealous. Not only that, I was just plain tired.

Well, of course I went to work, and first thing this morning I had a class of 5th graders to work on their PLATO test. All was well until I started hearing gurgling sounds. Yes, a kid was barfing in my computer lab.

White, cottage cheese-like substances are not what I want to see or smell first thing on a Monday morning. :sick:

Thank goodness next Monday is a day off.
