The Captain is Banned From the Boat

BANNED FROM THE BOAT

Captain Crunch that is.

Tom has to have Captain Crunch in the mornings for breakfast. Something that he hasn't outgrown yet. Its so peaceful here in the mornings, nice and quiet and usually we like it that way. But lately that damn crunching has been getting on my last nerve.

While he does eat it with his mouth shut, it's like his head is hollow and you can hear that crunching with each bite echoing. It sends shivers down my spine. He knows it and crunches louder cause it annoys me. It's not a good way to start off my day. He eats about 1/4 of a box a day, a huge salad bowl full of it, loaded with milk and takes about 15 minutes to polish it off. So that is 15 fricking minutes of CRUNCH- CRUNCH- CRUNCH..... Imagine waking up to this crap every morning... It's like he positions each little bit of cereal just right so that it crunches the loudest way possible.


Even The Diva Dog is annoyed with it, cause she naps till the last minute since its gotten cooler in the mornings. You can tell she hates it, cause she opens one eye slightly to give him that evil eye.

Does he care that he annoys us? No he enjoys it. Since he doesn't have the girls here anymore to sing his silly little songs to he has found other ways to annoy me and the dog. I thought it was really bad when he sang every morning to the dogs, the girls, or himself. These weren't normal songs that he sang, he make up songs on the spur of the moment. Diva won't have anything to do with that crap, so he doesn't sing to her, but Shell's dog Storm loved his songs. Of course that dog isn't right anyhow. That elevator stops before it reaches the top level.

It's not bad enough that we listen to him snore every night ... and I mean EVERY night, now he found another way to interrupt the quietness of the day. The more I tell him that it bothers me, the louder he tries to make the CRUNCH - CRUNCH- CRUNCH....

I warned him that I was gonna start feeding him oatmeal in the morning, I imagine that he would be able to make that crunch too.

Last night I figured I would get even, I made Meatloaf. Well the fool liked it, I figured that its the onions that he hates, but I love them. So we compromised, I cut the onions up really little so he couldn't see them, and added more of them. It worked. He didn't think that I had onions in it at all. Even Diva ate it. I was shocked. See my Little EZ bake oven does come in handy. But that didn't work to get even.

Now if I could figure out a way to un-crunch Captain Crunch.
