memo to self: do not forget to take medication

You would never have guessed what happened. My mother decided that our family was going to be moving to Bordeaux, France! This city has been recorded as the top supplier of bubblegum in the world! My family and I were in shock as none of us have ever travelled outside of North America. I asked my mother when she had planned on our continental move, she looked at the clock and said, "IN TEN MINUTES!" My brother and sister bolted to their rooms to start packing the necessary items to live in Bordeaux. All of these quick and sudden movements along with all of the unusual thoughts shooting through my mind caused a slight twitch in my left eye. It seemed that I had forgotten to take my medication that morning, and my nerves began bouncing off-the-wall, so to speak. My mother shrieked at the sight of my uncontrollable spasms which began with a slight twitch in my eye, evolving into full-out shaking and kicking on the floor. My mother called for my brother's assistance. Parker arrived in due time and knew exactly what I needed. My brother reached into his pocket and pulled out a bright orange carrot and placed it on the table. My brother then bent down and reached into his shoe only to pull out a bottle of pills labeled 'anti-spazz pills'. My mother poured the pills down my throat, they tasted a lot like chocolate cupcakes. Moments later, my body calmed down and everyone had a sigh of relief. It seemed as if my life was on the edge of disaster and my sister was deciding on which outfits would look the best in France. If I had my way I would have pulled out the old leather belt and give her a few slaps on the wrists. Unfortunately I was not able to do this, so I just threw an orange at the back of her head a few days later and said it was an accident. After all of this craziness, we ended up missing our flight to Bordeaux and remain living in our house here in Stoney Creek. Now I swear to you, that is exactly how it all went down.

  1. Truly inspirational! I for one will never again forget to take my medication.

    Also, could you give me the brand name of the anti-spazz pills that taste like cupcakes? Mine tastes like a furry monkey who ate too many bananas. Thanks.
