font-family:Arial'>Ooh, where can I hide? It’s like living with the
stalkerazzi here since Hannah Bandannah and Clyde Kadiddlehopper announced
their Champion Sleeper calendar contest. I don’t think the
blondeslave sleeps anymore-she just skulks around with her camera trying to get
a picture of one of us sleeping. Poor Moosie Bear has PTS and big bags
under his eyes. Every time he tries to take a nap the flash goes
off. He’s seeing more stars than Nobu on a Saturday night.
Oh, and does she really think we can’t see her when she dresses in camo
and sits by the house plants in the living room?? Sigh…well there’s
only a week or so left to get pictures sent in to Auntie Bonnie. Maybe
then we’ll get some sleep. Yawn…OMD…she’ll be
home in another 2 hours I better try to catch some zzz’s. Don’t
forget to get your “Champion’s” best sleeping picture in by </span></font>August
