Full Moon Brings Much Excitement to 2240

The full moon on the night of December 17th brought a new level of activity and excitement to the community of 2240, which continued well into the daytime of the 18th. Citizen Needles spent much of the night and day sprinting around the neighborhoods, colliding into objects and unlucky passers by with vigor not yet seen before. He was also frequently seen at the veranda window, where he was trying to attack snowflakes that were falling plentifully beyond the glass wall.

Another surprising moon-howler was citizen Magnolia, who blossomed in her moment of girl-power during the dining hours this evening. She boldly made an appearance at the feeding hour and was awaiting her share politely on the counter when young Needles leapt onto the countertop to chase her away. In a flurry of anger and righteous indignation, Magnolia roared and gave Needles a royal blow on the bottom, which sent the junior dashing away for his dear life. The rest of her mealtime was uninterrupted, as Jack stared at her in awe at a safe distance.

The full moon has also brought about a period of productivity for Chief Inspector Matsui, who spent much of the day at the keyboard writing music. Amid her scribblings, she reports that 2240 continues to enjoy the golden days with surplus of food, firewood, excitement, and amusement.

  1. Full moon activities were equally exciting on the shores of Hawaii. President Wheeler and Mayor Dewar started their research dives at not even the crack of dawn as dawn doesn't crack at their call time of 6am. Rather it's the sealing of night complete with full moon as they don their suits and equipment ti soar down 80 feet under.

    Good on citizen magnolia to finally put her paw down against the bullying of the youngsters. Of course they just want to play but they must learn that the old lady is not interested in that kind of sparring. She just wants to rock in her tree and reminisce. (Sp?) (mayor dewar is rusty on spelling especially with this new fangled thing called a smart phone...)

    President wheeler needs photographic proof or video footage that the fire is going and chief inspector Matsui is not composing in indoor arctic conditions and freezing her gluteus Maximus off. Laws have been passed for 2240 that comfort for the unfurred (those without natural or unnatural fur coats) is mandatory.

    This coming post the 72 degree frigid waters that left the president and mayor shivering uncontrollably early this morning.
