Coalition Victory

Well I was under the assumption, that I could mystically combine my first and second assignment and tie it off with a pretty ribbon, but that doesn't seem to be the case. Don't know if I should regale you with another tale of my exploits or just outright lie to you all. I think I'll let the reader come to that conclusion on your own.

I was sitting in a kitchen, eating a peanut butter and jam (strawberry) sandwich and colouring outside of the lines one afternoon. It was another typical day, I was done with school and ready to enjoy the lazy remainder of my day playing with tinker toys and watching Pokemon. Gerry and Verlie were in the T.V. room probably watching the news or Judge Judy, who knows what was on at that time of day. Halfway through eating P.B. & J sandwiched between cloud nine my day took an unexpected and darker turn. The kitchen had caught fire, the counter was a blaze and I didn't have a god damned clue what to do. It came to me in a split second, and I hurried for the fridge, threw the door open and grabbed the jug of orange juice. I turned to the raging inferno that the counter had turned into, and doused it with the OJ that I was wielding. Verlie can running into the kitchen to see what was going on and was shocked to learned what happened and how it was dealt with. She even made me a medal that claimed it was a hero (I'm really just an average human being) that I sported at school the next day. And as for the cause of the fire, it seems Verlie had turned the electric kettle on and cord was frayed, allowing a spark to jump from it and catch some near by aluminum foil on fire. Man what an afternoon, I forgot to finish my sandwich.

  2. Did people at your school admire your medal? I know I would.
