Zany, yellow xylophones wander vigorously under the stars. Rob quickly peeks over numerous mountains. Llamas kick Jeff into the house. Giant, freckled elephants dance carelessly beneath my abode.

The room begins to lighten; it's about that time. She will rise from that big, squishy square soon. I sometimes get to lay on that square, but only when it's dark out and she has the light on. A bag is beside me. It was tossed on the floor carelessly after our daily journey, like me. It always hurts when she throws me down on the floor.

She rises. What does she do on the square for all that time? What a weird habit. She goes into another room. I hear sounds. When she comes back into the room, she does not look so frazzled. Why would laying on a big square for so long make a person look so unkempt?

She takes off the coverings she is wearing and throws them onto the big square. She puts on different ones. She stands me up, unzips me, and checks to see what I hold. I'm holding the same things as when you threw me down, I want to scream at her. She takes things out that are also square. Why so many squares? I'm not square.

She walks the couple steps across the room to her shelves and gets new squares. She puts the new squares in me. These squares are lighter than before. It is a good day when the squares aren't so heavy. She zips me closed, lifts me, and I am against her back. Once, when she was younger, I saw this same thing happen to a human. They called it a "piggy-back ride." They seem so happy when it happens; they giggle and squeal. I only enjoy the ride when I'm not so heavy. All the weight from the squares pulls me down and hurts me.

The bag that was beside me is carried on her left shoulder. We leave the room and the apartment. We go down some stairs, and she opens another door. Cold. Very cold. She carries me to a huge, scary looking machine that transports us from the place where we live to other places. She throws me and the bag on a seat next to her, and she turns on the machine. VRRRROOOOOOMM!!!!!!! The machine begins to move, and we are on our way.
