On Melting


It has been a hot couple of weeks, and very little work has been done by anyone in the Mountain Lair. Professor has taken to blocking the door to the utility closet to prevent the lack of cool breeze from getting through. There are days I walk over and he doesn't move and doesn't appear to be breathing. Until I happen to pick up a can opener, at which point he becomes entirely animated and ungodly howls emanate from within him.


Intern McSwifferpants, on the other hand, has been slowed not a whit by the heat. She scampers up her "tree" like it was nothing, and frequently plays "The Floor is Made of Lava", her favourite game. TFIMOL usually results in all my stuff being tossed to the floor. It's too hot for me to bother picking it up, haha.



It's not all fun and games, even for the Intern, however. She takes time to cool off, same as everyone else.

Intern Bobby got himself entangled with a bag this morning and tore down the stairs at high speed, inadvertently beheading a wooden duck in the process.

GOOD SHOW, BOB! :D

::LOL:: Poor IB! I've seen McSwifferpants get entangled in bags before, and it's such a pathetic thing :D
