Day 162: I Have Been Trying On My New Hat In The Dead Of Night

I have benign insomnia, like a small child the night before its birthday! There is too much excitement (of which more over the coming days). As I am not able to sleep, I have been trying on my new hat (originally bought for my ungrateful brother, Runningmonkey, who rejected it with a sneer), which I bought in the Canada and was photographed wearing by a pathologist (who cuts his own hair) in the entrance hall of large Pharmacy.

Sadly, however, that photograph is Privit and for close family and friends only. Here instead is the frankly alarming window display that first attracted me to Monkey Hat. Imagine yourself in it, if you like. And if you ever come to my house (unlikely, as I rarely entertain at home, what with the fleas), you will be photographed in it too.






















Not long until Christmas, The Arrival of The Most Special Of Visitors (not Father Christmas, he'll have been already), the delivery of a dress made of navy blue, my Best Friend's Wedding (at which I must make a speech!), a short jaunt to the country, New Year's Eve and finally, some Unusual Exercise on The Strand.

Only the Monkey Hat can calm me! I shall have to sleep in it.

Do Beaver the Beaver and Monkey Hat get along with each other, what with them both being from Canada?

It is a wonderful hat with Special Eyes.

It's all right, I don't have fleas so it's always safe to entertain me.

If there is a finer hat than this, I do not know of it. If only All had such a garment! World peace would surely ensue.

I am wearing the hat RIGHT NOW! This is not a joke! It is quite soothing. Interestingly, it is lined with a nice soft fleece and really is very, very warm. Also it covers your ears. I REALLY like it and am a bit worried about HOW much I like it.

Yes, Beaver the Beaver loves it and sleeps in it at night. He likes it when it's fresh off my head, and therefore warm with a few fleas for him to eat.

All these anons! Are you the same anon, or three different anons, or 2 anons with 3 comments?
