My Cool New Friend….
Today’s Fortune: A good deed will make you feel good.
I got to do a good deed yesterday. I rescued my friend Guy from the box he was trapped in.
Guy is the latest visitor in our Traveling Sock Monkey group. His box arrived yesterday in the mail. It was covered with all kinds of cool stuff.
Guy is the last monkey to be visiting on the TSM tour, and he is the first guy monkey we have hosted. All of the other ones have been girls. Girls are fine, but it is nice to have somebody to do guy stuff with.
Guy is very cool. He has cool sunglasses, and he likes a kind of music called “Ska.” I will probably get to learn some about that. He has cool hair, too. It is called “dreadlocks” and does not have to be combed. He even has a tattoo.
Guy also has cool clothes. He wears ties, and has a hat called a “bowler.” He said we should work on improving my look so I could be cool, too. He loaned me one of his ties, and said that my top hat would work until I could find something cooler.
We took Guy with us to Big Truck Tacos today, and he got to meet Uncle Phil, just like all of the other traveling monkeys have done. He spent some time talking on Uncle Phil’s iPhone. They both looked pretty cool in their sunglasses.
I want to be cool like Guy! Mom says she will see about finding me some sunglasses. But she says I cannot have a tattoo. Or dreadlocks. I hope I can be cool without those.
She says Guy would be a whole lot cooler if he had some pants. I think she is right. We will work on that this week.
Today’s Vocabulary Words: Ska, dreadlocks, bowler

Hi there! That is so cool, I must join in on the TSM next time. 1st i have to find my sock monkey, i have had him since i was a kiddo. Probably went into my sewing/craft room and couldnt find his way back out again. 😀
Guy is cool, but you are sweet and cool! I like you just as you are!

Noah,
Guy reminds me of John Lennon or Howard Stern…LOL! I think you look very dapper in the tie. I’m glad you have a dude visitor, and BTW you are already cool!
XOXO Big Monkey

Dear Noah,
I rather like your top hat. Very dignified. But I don’t suppose that’s the look you want right now, is it? It’s fun to dress differently every now and then. Like when your mom gets dressed up to go to a fancy-schmancy affair. But I bet she likes it best when she can just be comfy.

Hi, Auntie Pam!
I like to dress up for sure. I think a tuxedo would look nice with my top hat. I don’t think I’ve ever seen Mom get dressed up for a fancy-schmancy anything. Mom just does comfy. Even her dress up clothes are comfy.
Love, Noah

Hi, Big Monkey!
I’m glad you think I am already cool. That means a lot coming from a cool guy like you!

Hi, DeeDee!
You should definitely find your sock monkey. You could send him to our house for practice, before he goes on a full-fledged TSM tour. We will show him a great time!
Love, Noah

Oh I bet he would like that. I am afraid i would have to make him some clothes first, he is nekked and lost in there. Poor baby!
Just make sure you send him back, even though he is being treated so poorly right now, I do love him.

Hi, DeeDee!
We don’t care if he is nekkid. Dharma was when she got here, and she wound up moving on with a whole wardrobe!
Love, Noah
