HOW I SAVED THE PIRATE

IMG_0023 Honestly, who needs a playroom when you have a pantry?

The Princess held an electric  toothbrush out at The Pirate and said, “I sucked up all your powers.”

She has been teasing him lately so I said, Come here Pirate, I’ll give you more powers.  I have an infinite supply.

I put my hand on his chest and one on his back and jiggled him sufficiently until he had more powers.

I heard him charge back up with a “hooooommmm”.

Then The Princess turned her toothbrush on him again, “I’m taking more powers from him.”

I whisked my hand around her and said, “I’m sucking up your sucking up powers.”

She said, “Ah-ha!  All my sucking up powers were in the toothbrush.”

All right, I responded, then I broke your toothbrush.

“You did?!?!”  She was crestfallen, “Oh, I didn’t know that.  OK then.”  And The Pirate walked away full of power.
