Thunder's Birthday
It was eight O'clock in the morning when Thunder's butler,
Chucko (the ape) came into the room serving Thunder breakfast in bed. Thunder
asked, why he was being served breakfast in bed, and why at such a late hour?
Chucko told him, "that today was his birthday so they cleared his work schedule,"
and served him breakfast in bed.
Thunder looked over his breakfast it was his favorites: an
all meats omlet, orange juice, and milk. Thunder thought that looked good to him
and he woofed it right down. Thunder then asked Chucko what was on his itinerary
for the day. To which Chucko said, "At 10:00 you have a groomer go to the groomers.
At 12: 00 you have lunch wherever you want to go.
At 3:00 guests begin to come over for a 5:00 supper.
Then at 7:00 PM tonight you start unwrapping your gifts."
Thunder thought having to wait all days to open gifts was a silly idea. Still, going to
Gilda's Grooming and Spa sounded like a good idea. Gilda was a cool cat who owned several
grooming salons.
At noon Chucko drove the nice, clean, Thunder to a hot dog restaurant. Where Thunder
got a hot dog sandwich with relish on it, bar-b-q chips and a diet soda. Chucko just had a hot dog
sandwich and a banana shake. Then again Chucko was an ape so what do you expect?
They then came back to the mansion to find that it had been all dressed up for Thunder's
tenth birthday. Jimmy took Thunder aside and got him all dressed up in a tuxedo and a tie. Thunder
was not to impressed but understood the reason behind it. Jimmy told him that birthday packages had
been arriving for him since 10:00 AM non-stop. Jimmy then got himself into a tuxedo and a tie.
At 3:00 O'clock Jimmy, Thunder, Chucko, and all the rest of the house were all lined up
to receive guests. All the while more packages kept coming in from around the world. I might add that
the mail kept bringing bags of birthday cards instead of bags of bills.
The guests kept coming like there was no tomorrow. Then at 5:00 PM the guest
stopped coming and they had a meal of steak and potatoes with a side salad and a birthday cake. Then
they all had a diet soda to wash it down with.
Then at 7:00 PM Thunder started to unwrap his gifts. Thunder found when you were
rich you would get gifts from all over the world. Thunder got a walking stick all the way from China.
Which made him laugh as he said;" someone must of known my Moma's walking condition, and
thought I might have carried the gene."
At 10:00 O'clock he split the stuff up giving some of the stuff to charity. He then went
to bed as tomorrow was a brand-new day.
