Sr. Cub Center
After enduring self- isolation for over two weeks, I was so excited to get back to the Center to see my buddies. Now, I’ve never hated any bugs from my childhood to my present state, but after this quarantine I have a great disgust for those “bugs” that held me hostage for what seemed like ‘forever’! I was a victim, a stranger unaware of the plight that was in store for me. They sneakily entered my personal space and sneered in my face. Those rascals transformed my poor nose from a pale beige to a Rudolph tinted one and caused my stomach to utter sounds never before heard. They installed a faucet in my sinuses and turned the spigot on full force, even though they knew what a conservationist I am. It was a rebellion, a bold-faced attack on my persona ! I fought back; I armed myself with Vitamin C gummies, Calcium with Vitamin D, hot tea, soup, Gatorade, and cinnamon toast. I was ready !! They did win several skirmishes before my forces rallied and put an end to their evil desires to defeat me. I say a glad farewell to those bugs and their commander, General Covid!
