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.

The End

I hope you’ve had a Merry Christmas

 Merry Christmas! Ours was pretty good.  Quick backtrack to Thanksgiving: We just did a small early dinner in Gramma Wanda’s backyard. It was warn and we ended up taking jackets off as well as ate inside. Torstein came with us to hang out with Sophie to be weirdo’s together. Ro also lost both of his front teeth and another bottom tooth that week. On a few Saturdays around that time, Ro went to a sort of Nasa coding camp at Fresno State since we had a break from golf. He ended being sick for two out of the three sessions, but he enjoyed the content. I also got a free community library card at the Fresno State library (job perk) and spent a lot of time knitting at Collect Coffee. Ro said he didn’t like spending a lot of time away from home though. He’s registered for baseball in spring, will be doing golf all year, and planning on tennis in summer (no refunds on that one for rain though the other two are flexible/flat rate).  Ro had a winter show at his school. The cafeteri...

Streator, Illinois

I had been trying to plan a trip to visit my Aunt Jane and my Aunt Jean in Illinois for awhile.  Eventually, I heard that one of them was having dizzy spells and other health problems.  I figured that now would be better than later to go -- even if it was in the middle of summer time.  Ro will be starting pre-kindergarten in a few weeks and airplane tickets were just going to get more expensive until next February.   Day 1: We left Fresno Saturday just before noon.  Ro was raring to go on the trip until he realized how long it was going to be.  It didn't hit him until we got on the ramp to go from 99N to 152W.  Then he needed to use the bathroom and we tried to use a side road to convince Ro to go to the bathroom next to the road.  He's told us jubilantly before that one of the grandmas let him pee on a tree, but he just couldn't pee or defecate on the ground next to the car.  We packed him back into the car until we exited...

March Update

B and I got our second Pfizer shots recently.  It's hard to tell if we're having side effects or psychosomatic symptoms.  After my first shot, I had some shortness of breath overnight, I was tired, I had bad allergies, my arm was super sore and I had weird upper back pain the next day.  After the second, I made sure to go running and that seemed to take care of the symptoms for the first night and next day.  I made the mistake of having a drink, thinking I was in the clear, but then I had random cold sweats and waves of pain in my head and back overnight with weird dreams about the pain and how it wouldn't go away until I got more shots.  Eventually, everything went away as if nothing ever happened.  B got his second shot last Friday and felt a bit of tiredness, but he went on a forty-five mile bike ride this morning -- the first group ride his bike gang has gone on since COVID started shutting things down -- and he seems fine now.  He's more worried a...
