Tube Tunnel Mole Has Nothing To Do (An Original by Ro)

 Tube Tunnel Mole Has Nothing To Do 

Once upon a time, Tube Tunnel Mole had nothing to do but sleep in his small mole bed.  His pillow had his name and a picture of his face stitched on it.  He slept well on his bed.  He dreamed about exactly what was happening outside of his eyelids:  nothing, but the things that were around him.  His small television, which was turned off. The blue walls of his house that didn’t have any paintings or pictures.  His blue robot Mobot that he usually used to make birdhouses.  

He woke up in a spaceship.  The ten astronauts took his bed, his pillow, and his whole house in the rocket ship.  Tube Tunnel Mole felt like an astronaut and felt happy about being in the spaceship.  Tube Tunnel Mole wanted to know what the astronauts discovered that they didn’t show on television.  The spaceship didn’t have a window, and they wanted to land on the moon.  Because there wasn’t a window, they watched a television showing what a camera showed from the outside.  The astronauts only took his television and keyboard into the rocketship because Tube Tunnel Mole could log in to the camera system to access the video.  

Tube Tunnel Mole woke up Mobot using the “on” button of the remote control.  The astronauts decided that Mobot could stay if Tube Tunnel Mole was okay with it.

The astronauts, Tube Tunnel Mole, and Mobot crashed onto the moon, breaking Mobot. They collected samples from the surface of the moon including soil, stone, and air.  They drilled the surface to see if they could find water.  The astronauts had been sent to the moon for a very long time.  They needed to return the samples by the time that Tube Tunnel Mole woke up.  He had fallen asleep again.  

Tube Tunnel Mole needed to be back on Earth to create more tube systems and tunnels.

Then the day was over and Tube Tunnel Mole fell back asleep.

Tube Tunnel Mole woke up a lot quicker this time.  He woke up in a scuba suit in the Pacific Ocean.  He quickly found a black hole that transported him to the Atlantic Ocean.  Then he found another black hole that took him back into the rocketship to restart his journey to the moon.

Then Tube Tunnel Mole started to go into another black hole that took him to the bottom of a volcano about ready to erupt.  A stone face was carved into the volcano.  It told him to burrow into the ground of the volcano until he reached another volcano and continue burrowing until he got to a black hole that would transport him into his own head.  Then he would reach another black hole that would transport him to his brain.  Then another black hole would take him back to his body.

Then Tube Tunnel Mole found an enchanted blue jay feather that would transform into anything he needed including a blue screwdriver that could help him fix robots.  In order to start doing the ultimate form of the screwdriver, which was a peanut blaster, he needed to turn it into a phone to scan a QR code that was right on the back of the item.  Luckily the phone had a lens that could be extended out into a U-shape facing back onto itself.  Tube Tunnel Mole took a picture to unlock the feather to make it available for others to use after he used the screwdriver to repair Mobot.  Then Tube Tunnel Mole released the feather onto the air to float to the next person that needed it.

End of June and Beginning of July

The car radio has been working fine. But then B accidentally knocked my mounted microphone behind the dashboard with the sun shade. The Jeep was due for an oil change so I took time yesterday morning to do the oil change, and then take apart the center panel to fish everything back where it needs to be. I remounted the microphone in a new spot where it may be less affected, but maybe I'll try to get better mounting tape to keep it in place. Anna said the sound wasn't affected by it being in the dash, but I feel like it works better when it's out.  B and I made it out for a trip at the end of June to see Shakira in San Francisco. She played a really good show. There were four little girls that were sitting behind us who knew the words to many of her Spanish songs and it was adorable to have that chorus behind us. She had quite a few props like a giant inflatable wolf for her encore. I realized that I know more of her music in Spanish than English, but of course she sang anyt...

May Update

 It's June 1st! So it's been awhile. I feel like this month has passed by, but I don't remember what we did. I think I mentioned Bookfest 2025 in my last post so I'll look through my calendar and figure out what I did since then.  The weather has been pretty decent all month up until last week after Memorial Day weekend. I set up a card table in the garage one day to be able to work from home and let Ro play with his remote control batmobile and skateboard across the street. Tor was out with us and mostly stuck around.    Work from home setup complete with desk muppet B and Ro have been checking out churches because Ro has starting wondering what religions are out there. B hasn't been making me go to the Christian ones (or any of them really...because I don't want to). Ro seems to have this idea that the Christian ones don't have as much of an emphasis of the "Do this or you'll go to Hell" aspect. He's in for a rude awakening. Mom has plans...

Happy Birthday!

I hope today is going ok for you. It feels like it's been busy, but I don't know that much new has been going on since my last post. Mom came to visit in time for Ro's joint theater birthday party yesterday and will be heading out tomorrow. We saw Howl's Moving Castle. It came out when I was in high school, but I never saw the whole movie. It was really pretty and there was a lot going on. I think I might go back and read the book. The kids seemed to enjoy the movie even though it was also really long. We all looked over at where all the kids were sitting and it looked like someone dumped a large bucket of popcorn straight on the floor. The other kid's mom watched everyone to see who was trying to leave the theater for whatever reason (more drinks, bathroom, etc) and kept everyone together. It was a much smaller group this year even with having a joint party. The ads in the beginning were the worst - they took up almost a whole hour before the movie actually starte...
