Once upon a time what a silly way to begin a story… but whatever. Once upon a time, you know that really is a strange way to begin a story. I mean what on earth does it mean? Yeah, I don’t know either… Anyway where was I? Oh yeah, the beginning… ahem. Once upon a time, there was this little jellybean named Peach. Now Peach was an insomniac of sorts, never getting any sleep… or was that Winkie… darn I hate it when I get these little critters confused. hmmm Anyway, there sat Peach at a desk, as she always did, listening to music. Walking into the room, I noticed that she was listening to Lords of Acid, and what an interesting song that was. Humming along to the melody… yes I said humming, not humping! um…. anyway, she looked up to me and nodded. I just looked at her and said “Well, at least you’re doing something constructive with your time.” Peach glared at me as though she were getting ready to bite my shoe. Peach would get that way once in a while, doing this ...

Peach and Sock brought a penguin in this morning... it looked rather realistic at first. Upon further investigation it turned out to be a simple sock. Well more than just a simple sock... more like seveal socks. You see, the penguin was in a deep freeze down under. He was trying to make his way back to the Arctic when his boat sank. Apparently no one told the penguin that you couldn't cook marshmellows on ice. His boat was an ice burg. Poor penguin ended up in Australia. Peach and Sock haven't decided what to do with the guy yet. They're playing rock paper scissors at the moment trying to decide if they want to let the penguin know he's safe and sound. I sure hope they don't decide to keep him as a pet... they already neglect Winkie as it is.

Sock plopped herself down on the couch. Being in the reflective mood that she was, Sock wanted to write something thoughtful and moving. Looking around to make sure Peach was no where in sight, she started to write with her pencil in mouth. After a sentence or two, the puppet didn't like where the words were going. Taking the sheet of paper in his mouth, Sock crumpled it up and spit it across the room. She started writing again... and again she didn't like what she saw. Sock spit that piece of paper across the room as well. This went on for several pieces of paper. Sock heard hobbling... it could only be Peach. Sure enough the jellybean entered the room. Peach surveyed the paper on the floor as she hobbled up to Sock. Looking to the puppet, Peach shrugged as if to say "What on earth happened here?" Sock motioned to her, trying to explain the mood she was in and how she wanted to write something that had meaning. Peach laughed. She hobbled over to the bookshelf and gra...

Winkie, the red fruity dino, walked through the living room this morning. I watched as he made his way past Peach's writing desk and Sock's play area to the kitchen. By the time I got to the kitchen, he was starting at a pack of gummy bears. Winkie didn't understand why they weren't talking to him. No matter what he tried, they just sat there motionless in their little package. I tried to explain that they were just food, snacks to be chewed on... but he didn't understand. Opening the package, I took out a gummy bear and popped its head off. That was a mistake. Winkie about went nuts. Running into a wall he passed out. I think I'll have to try and explain this to him another time.

Peach woke up this morning and looked at the alarm clock. Blinking she cross referenced it with her phone and computer. Daylight savings time had struck... and no one had warned her. She had been busy with the news regarding the earthquake in Japan. Looking to Sock, Peach nodded over at the alarm clock. Sock looked over at the clock and shrugged. It was correct. Peach sighed, what was she going to do with the damn puppet. She had places to go and people to eat... and now she was already behind an hour on her schedule. Hopping out of her shoe box, Peach hobbled towards the front door to grab the morning paper... it wasn't there. She sighed again... first the time now this. She would have her revenge someday.... Hobbling back to her box, she jumped back in. If the time was changing... she wasn't about to budge until things were back to normal. Sock smiled as she nuzzled up to Peach. It was going to be a good day after all.

Peach hid around the corner waiting for Sock to arrive. Sock always made a morning run around the house at 4 am when everyone else was asleep. or so she thought. Wait a second! Sock can't run... no wait, yes she can, she was in a shoe. As Sock came around the corner, Peach tripped her causing her to crash to the ground. Sock stood up, a little dazed and full of grass stains. Looking to Peach she gave a slight smile. Sock actually enjoyed these games, well except for when she got eaten and had to be put back together. Peach grinned, showing her razor sharp teeth (of flame no less? ya still no clue what that means). Sock looked to Peach and stuck her tongue out... showing off her tongue ring. Peach looked back in surprise, she didn?t know Sock had a tongue ring let alone a tongue. Her smile went away, and her mouth dropped wide open as if to say she wanted one as well. Sock got back in her shoe and motioned for Peach to follow her. They walked down the street to the crosswalk and cro...

It's true, I'm still in shock over the entire thing myself. Peach and a friend... a fruit snack named winkie, he's a red dino fruit snack. They ran away to vegas to get hitched. At least that's what the note said. Who can blame them? I sure don't. Of course it would have been nice for them to have left some kind of note behind or something, but no I had to find out from Sock. Peach tends to tell Sock everything... and I do mean everything. Sometimes I wonder if it's a little TMI? But that doesn't matter really... cause in the end, nothing is TMI, is it? Nah, didn't think so... hmmm, there's an interesting idea. (more on that subject later) Anyway, from what I've been told, as Peach was leaving Utah, she ate the "Welcome to Utah" sign. I just hope I don't end up getting the bill for it... that could get ugly.

Peach hobbled to the sidewalk and whistled for a taxi as Sock looked on. Being the frisky Jellybean that she is, and with razor sharp teeth I might add, her whistle sounded like two saw blades. She watched and watched as the taxis kept driving by and not stopping. Peach hobbled out into the street and snagged a car by the bumper causing it to slow down and stop. The driver looked to the Jellybean who just innocently smiled while batting her eyelashes. Hopping into the cab, Peach mouthed the driver a piece of paper... she would have handed it to him, but um Peach has no hands. lol The driver read the note... "Take me to dance." Looking back at Peach, he shrugged "Huh?" Peach sighed... another one that didn't speak english. Grinning with her sharp teeth, Peach pointed her nose to a map. The driver looked at the location, nodded his head, and started to drive. A few moments later, the taxi stopped infront of a club. Peach jumped out of the cab, paid the driver with...

Peach and Sock hobbled across the street to the Grocery Store. As they walked up to the automatic doors, Peach gazed in wonder. She had never seen such marvelous things. Taking Sock by the hair, Peach flung her at the door. The door parted. Sock hit the smooth floor and went sliding. Peach's mouth dropped open. She had just opened a wall. Sock hobbled back to the door and looked at Peach. Peach looked back. Both Peach and Sock blinked a few times, waiting for the door to open. It didn't. Peach grinned her Jellybean razor sharp teeth. She had a plan. Picking up a twig in her mouth, Peach flung it at the door. As the doors parted, she wedged another twig in the opening; allowing the Sock Puppet to leave the store. Peach and Sock hobbled away from the store. Sock smiled as they crossed the street back towards home. It was good to be free from the automatic door.

One day as I was leaving my house to go to work, I accidently left the front door unlocked. From what I can piece together, and from what the remains of the sock puppet saw (she's just two eyes ya know), Upon waking up from her nap, Peach wandered outside the house and walked around the yard a bit. I know what you're thinking, but you're wrong. She didn't meet up with a snake this time. Apparently, word has gotten around how much she loves snakes and they've been avoiding the house like the plague. Go figure. Anyway, what did she do outside? I'm not entirely certain. I do know that Peach hopped over to the flowers and met a strange bee. I have more notes on this encounter, which I will share at another time. But yeah, she just enjoyed the outdoors for a bit and was back inside before I got back home. I'm sure there are things Peach isn't telling me. It will just take time to find out what she did out there.

While out looking for a laundry mat one day, Peach and Sock ran across two mailboxes laying in the middle of the road. Peach had never seen a mailbox before, from the outside that is... and Sock, well Sock was just preoccupied with something else at the moment, and didn't see the mailbox. As Peach investigated one of the boxes closer, it opened and sucked both her and Sock in. Inside the box, Peach looked to Sock, who just shrugged her fuzz. At the end of the mailbox, a light appeared... Peach started to hobble towards the light. Sock tried to stop Peach, but well, ya can't do much without arms... only having a mouth. They were both sucked into the swirling light... and disappeared only to reappear in the other mailbox. Peach looked to Sock, Sock looked to Peach. They busted up laughing, not knowing exactly what was wrong. Opening the mailbox, Peach hobbled out with Sock following her. They continued to head down the sidewalk towards the laundry mat. Once inside, Peach grabbed ...

Peach hobbled into the room glaring at Sock. Winkie sat at his desk doing what he normally did... and what he was good at. Winkie looked over to Peach and nodded her entrance... he then shot a glare over to Sock as well. Sock just sat in the corner, it had been a long week for her... being brought back to life hadn't been easy on the gal. She was trying to adjust to life again. After a while, Peach hobbled over to Sock. Sock eyed Peach suspiciously, not knowing what she was going to do. Peach held out a lip... considering the fact that she didn't have hands. Sock looked at Peach's lip and noticed there was a tattoo... it said "nln Sock". Sock shrank in the corner and watch as Peach hobbled back towards Winkie... who both turned and glared at her again.

Peach hobbled into the school ready to vote in the election. As she continued down the hallway, and grinning at people walking by as usual, a thought struck her... she left sock on the stove... and it was on. "Oh well" she thought, "Sock will find a way off" Peach continued hobbling. As the jellybean approached a table, a man looked at her and said "I still can't believe you got Congress to pass that law allowing Jellybeans to vote!" Peach nodded her body in agreement. It had been quite the feat to say the least. Not many letters she wrote to congress actually made it off her desk, for she did have a love for paper. The man handed peach a voting ballot and pointed to a booth. "Go in there and..." He paused as Peach swallowed the paper and swished it around in her mouth a bit. "Uh..." the man started to say. Peach shook her head as if to say that she would be with him in a second. Sure enough, a few minutes later, the jellybean spit ...

Peach hobbled down the street towards the playground with Sock in toe. Stopping at the street corner, Peach looked to Sock who shrugged... they had never been to that intersection before. Sock looked both ways and saw cars everywhere. She looked to Peach for guidance. Peach looked to the crosswalk sign, it had a big red hand up saying they couldn't cross. She then noticed the controls to work the light next to her... but they were out of reach. Picking up a rock and putting it in Sock's mouth, Peach spun Sock around like a sling and flung her towards the button. Sock hit the button and with a thud landed back on the ground. Spitting out the rock, Sock smiled as cars stopped for them allowing them to cross the street.

After gobbling the whole turkey yesterday before anyone else could even get a bite in, Peach decided that she wanted to go shopping early on Friday morning to hit all the sales. Waking up at 2 am, Peach hobbled out of the car and made it to the store, being the first in line wasn't too bad, she drug sock along for company and could use her if she needed to stay warm. Well, as usual, Peach got bored around 3 am and started getting anxious. She wanted the doors to open and wanted to start shopping. I mean, who wouldn't? It was freezing after all. Taking Sock by the arm, she wrapped the puppet around her tightly so as to help stay warm. Sock figured she couldn't do anything and fell asleep. A man standing next to Peach noticed her shivering, reaching down he attempted to pick her up. Peach smiled with her razor sharp teeth, and shook her body no. She wasn't about to lose her place in line for anyone or anything. Ya, Peach was very selfish that way. Two more hours passed wi...

Peach sat at her desk with pencil in her mouth vigorously writing. As I approached her, I placed my hand on her head. "Peach, what are ya up to?" Now, Peach was never one for talking, only biting. Turning her body, she just grinned and gestured towards her paper with the pencil. It began: "Dear members of Congress, My name is Peach the JellyBean. I have an urgent matter to discuss..." I continued reading Peach's words until the end. As my mouth dropped, she continued to smile as if to say, "Pretty neat huh?" I looked back to Peach and started shaking my head. "How many drafts is this one?" I asked. Peach shrugged her nose, claiming she didn't know what I was talking about, but I knew better. "Peach, you and I both know how much you LOVE paper. You like to eat it when you don't have anyone else to eat, it gets rid of your hunger. Thus, this can't be your first draft. How many times have you written this letter to Congress?...

It was an overcast day... In Utah. Peach Jellybean was in her homemade hot tub just relaxing and enjoying the day. Looking out across her back yard, she noticed a little fuzzy creature popping out of a hole. Being the adventurous bean that she was, she decided to investigate. Climbing out of the tub, she hobbled towards the hole. Sure enough, out came a Groundhog. Now, Peach had never seen a Groundhog in real life before, just those portrayed on TV, in that one movie which will remain nameless... because she didn't like it that much. From what she could remember, the Groundhog was kind and fuzzy, and wouldn't harm her. The Groundhog popped his head up and looked to the jellybean with awe. He had never seen a jellybean up close before himself, only those in commercials on TV. He had heard they were yummy, and was tempted to try one. Well, the Groundhog lunged at Peach nipping her head a little bit, and then spit it out! She didn't taste good at all. Peach hobbled back a foot...

Peach hobbled over to the Sock Puppet and kicked her.... now, Peach didn't have any feet so the kicking was done vicariously of course. Winkie, the red fruity dino, was the one that actually kicked the Sock Puppet. Sock gave a sigh of relief, at least she wasn't eaten again till she was just a bunch of eyeballs. Perhaps Peach was done with eating yarn... and would just stick to kicking from that day onward... she giggled at the thought and continued on her way.

Peach hobbled down the stairs and out the front door. She had a purpose, a mission if you will. Yes, she was determined to find a Mother's Day present for Sock. (Who knew Sock was a Mother eh?) It had been a couple of weeks since Peach had eaten Sock, but with time and effort, she rebuilt the creature. As Peach was hobbling down the sidewalk, whistling to herself, she was stopped by a Badger. Now, Peach had never seen a Badger up close before, and wondered what it wanted. The Badger looked the Jellybean over, and with a gleam in his eye, started to grin. Peach loved grinning contests, of course she always won; but that was besides the point. The Badger took a step closer to Peach, and looked her over. He admired her razor sharp teeth. Taking a dollar out of his... um.. fur I suppose, he attempted to bribe Peach for her teeth. Peach shook her head, and pointed her nose towards the dollar as if to say "You're kidding right?" With a quick chomp, she took the dollar away ...

I'm not bored anymore... ahhh, I need to write a new story... hmmm let's see here. Peach was sitting at her desk writing a letter... again. She recalled the last letter she had written and smiled. This time around, she had been able to not eat her paper or her pencil... and was doing just fine. SockPuppet flew into the room... 'cause that's how she gets from place to place, people fling her around. Anyway, as Peach was sitting there writing her letter Sock landed right on top of the paper. It didn't go over too well with Peach, and she gobbled up Sock as quickly as possible... sptting out her eyes and the yarn that was used for her hair. hmmm... why do I keep picking on Sock like this? oh well... lol More to come tomorrow I'm sure...
