An Update On The Planned Gecko Insurrection

Posted 9 February 2009 in by Catriona

I have found my fabulous tweezers. On the kitchen windowsill.

Now, that’s just odd. I use the kitchen windowsill to store all sorts of things, not least my cigarettes. And I’m sure the tweezers weren’t there when I grabbed a packet of cigarettes yesterday.

There’s only one plausible solution.

The geckoes have clearly worked out how to lift the lid of my laptop and, since the computer is not password protected, have been reading the blog, and have discovered that their plans for an insurrection have been rumbled.

(Or, I suppose, the possums could be telepathic as well as telekinetic.)

Now it’s only a matter of figuring out whether they’ve returned the tweezers out of a sense of “Fly, all is discovered!” or whether they’re trying to lull me into a false sense of security.

Well, that and wondering why they haven’t returned my cheese slicer, as well.

i’m very envious that the fabulous tweezers have returned. mine are still distinctly unfabulous.
as for the geckoes…i think they’re just stringing you along…they’re saving the cheese slicer for something evil at a later date

That’s my suspicion, as well. They’ve returned the tweezers to allay my suspicions, but they’re keeping the more potent object for themselves . . .

Glad to hear that the tweezers have been released … do you think they will have stockholm syndrome?

(meanwhile evil Leigh is concocting a plan to mess with your head via personal grooming/cooking implements next time she visits …. or just pinch the fabulous tweezers and blame it on the geckos) What? thats what I would have done when we were little !!!

What do you mean, that’s what you would have done when we were little? You just confessed that that’s what you’d do now, if you didn’t live so far away!

Stockholm Syndrome? Shudder. That would involve the geckoes, you know . . . using my tweezers.

Ew.

That’s odd: I always just assumed my best friend was evil Leigh.

Have I met nice Leigh? She sounds fun!
