a slipper

it's black and bounces and was on my friend Laura's foot the other day. quite horrible. also it's furry. I've called it The Queen's Slipper (since that's her name By Reason of Bossyness). she didn't think you could publish a slipper. but i just have.

where it clearly states that the MOST important thing of all when you have a grandpa or a grandma is that you must always, ALWAYS, give them kisses.
