Where I've Been

It's been quite a while since my last post, but for good reason. I have just returned from OUTER SPACE. I am a very lucky person. Of the billions of humans who have lived, less than a thousand have had this chance.

I went to OUTER SPACE two of our Earth-weeks ago. I was sitting at my computer, writing a blog entry, when there was a knock at my door. I had no idea then that the knock would lead me on a journey that would take me to OUTER SPACE.

I answered the door, and there was a Love Rocket standing there, with a big dopey grin on its face, arms spread pout to hug me.

For those of you unfamiliar with Love Rockets (I'm gonna assume that's most of you), they are robot rockets that sort of look like humans with engines up thier asses, and they crave affection. All the time.

They were invented by a reformed super-villain on my block, Dr. Courtesy. Back in the 80s he called himself Dr. Chaos, but he had it legally changed. he invented the Love Rockets to cheer the neighborhood up a bit, and to fly us to amusement parks in the summer.

Well, I embraced this particular Love Rocket without thought, and he most have been feeling over zealous, because before i knew it, I was in OUTER SPACE.

What was OUTER SPACE like, you ask? Well...it's a lot like a road trip. You think it's going to be a lot of fun, and it is for a while, but then it drags on and on and you just want to get there, instead of being stuck in stupid OUTER SPACE.

And the Love Rocket just floated there the whole time, smiling and asking for a hug. I undersatnd Dr. Courtesy's intentions were good, but did he have to make these things so damn needy?

If you have the means to go to OUTER SPACE for an hour or two, I think you should. But, really, bring a magazine or a crossword or something.
