Sorry for not coming through with a sleepover post, even though I was sitting next to K while she dutifully put up her daily entry. However, as a consolation prize, you get to read the story we wrote together by switching off one sentence at a time. It's a whole lot of awesome!
Once upon a time, there was a penguin named George. George had a big family. This is because he and his wife like to… you know… a lot. They all have names that begin with G. Like Georgina, and Georgette, and George… Jr. Their feet get cold from walking on ice all the time, so they all like wearing shoes. But one day, George realized that shoes looked silly on them – since they’re penguins – so they should find another solution to their cold feet. Instead of waddling, they would jump and hop! Sadly, George and the other penguins did not understand the laws of physics so well. They realized they could get around much more efficiently by skating around on their stomachs. This was a hot and sexy look for them, so suddenly George and all his fellow penguins were highly sought after for exciting parties and get-togethers. They were even asked to put on skating performances! Then suddenly, in the middle of one of their performances, George started clucking like a crazy chicken! Everyone was confused at first, but they figured that since George came up with a great idea like stomach-skating, clucking like a chicken must also be the cool thing to do. Within weeks, the whole world was clucking like a chicken and skating on their stomachs, and George and his family basked happily forever in the adoration of millions.
THE END!
Can you figure out who wrote the first sentence?
