Today I received Biskit’s goodbye letter in the mail. I knew it would be coming, but it’s still sad to say goodbye. He was such a good dog. \ud83d\udc36<\/p>\n\n\n

Rosie told me about a contest to find the next Little Miss Baked Ziti, and she asked if I would like to do it together. I assume she meant helping her out or whatever. \ud83d\ude1b But then she remembered that I was a guy, and she said boys are too stinky to enter.<\/p>\n\n\n

Phineas was standing in the city, so I asked him for a balloon. Unlike last year<\/a>, he gave me a red one this time…so it didn’t match my outfit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Later on tonight, I returned to the game. I attended K.K. Slider’s show in the Roost, where he performed “Soulful K.K.” for me.<\/p>\n\n\n

There was a meteor shower going on in the sky tonight, so I stopped to watch a few of them go by.<\/p>\n\n\n
