The ice cream truck came for the day care rug rats. I bought some watermelon sherbet. I have been holding the little carton as I waste time at work.  
I believe my fingers are frost bitten.

I had to close my window, my mother decided to put the A/C on and she sent Sah-son in to make sure I closed my window. It’s supposed to go down to 63 so I’ll open my window tonight.

I thought “Hey, it’s a nice afternoon. I’m going to sit on the porch and read.”

Every mosquito in a five-mile radius heard, “Hey, someone with tasty feet is going to be outside!”

So itchy. So very itchy.

Beer and pizza I could do  
it’s the watermelon that would do me in.

I like watermelon but I have to be careful with it, for whatever reason I will get a tummy ache if I eat it after certain foods.  
Like I could never eat it after crabs, but I could eat it after chicken.

I want watermelon, dammit. But instead, I’ll get some cherries, then recline the night away.

Watermelon is a vile and nasty fruit, fit only for the pigs.

Could you eat it with a fox?  
Could you eat in in a box?
