A Day in the Life of a Sock Monkey

My name is Jacques.  I am a vintage sock monkey.  I flew in from Paris a couple of weeks ago and there was so much turbulence I dislocated both of my shoulders.  
 My guardian angels were watching over me when they dropped me in Little Miss Maggie's care.  She surgically repaired my shoulders.
 Now I get to lay in bed for hours reading the latest sock monkey adventures.
 She put me up in the bridal suite and I do have to share it with the honeymooners.
 I get up around noon and play by the seashore (well sort of).
 I do have to put up with a lot of cats though.
 Darn, they are all over the place.
 In the afternoon I enjoy the symphony.
 I hope I never have to fly anywhere ever again.
Boy, what an exhausting day.  I think I'll have my milk and cookies now.   That cat better not try to steal them from me.  I have it pretty good here.  I think I'll stay for a while longer.  Au revoir.
