Journal #4

There once was an ant.  His name was Berry.  He had an aching feeling.  This feeling ached for pudding.  Not just any pudding, however, chocolate pudding.  He knew where he could find said chocolate pudding, however, it was getting to it that was his problem.  Why was it such a problem you may ask?  It was in the *suspenseful music* REFRIGERATOR.  Duh Duh Duh Duuuuuh!  Berry was based in the living room of the Gallio household, the refrigerator was stationed in the Gallio kitchen.  These two rooms were separated by "The Hallway" every ants nightmare.  The survival rate of entering "The Hallway" was less than 10%.  So you can see why Berry would be scared.  Though he was scared, his yearn for some chocolate-y pudding was much more potent.  He was determined to get to this pudding, no matter the cost.  There was no time to waste.  Now or never as his any colony always said.  He took his first step out into "The Hallway."  It's menacing green walls taunted him, as if saying "You'll be this color when we're done with you!"  He scurried along the mocking walls until he reached the china cabinet.  It was at least seven feet tall and full of fragile pottery Mrs. Gallio had attained through out the years.  He had heard of many spiders to hide out and wait for courageous ants to stumble right into their webs hid around the china cabinet.  Berry would not be that ant.  He scurried purposefully around the china cabinet and only hoped he would avoid any spider-booby-traps.  He was getting tired now.  He was about half-way through "The Hallway"  and was already beginning to feel the fatigue setting in.  It was only a matter of time before it was all to much for him to take and he lost all control (This is how I feel on long car rides.  If I'm in one place to long....not good.).  He had made it past the china cabinet!  Weeeew!  *STOMP, STOMP, STOMP* Why was the floor rumbling?!  Where was that black shadow coming from?!  Why is it descending upon me?!  NOOO THIS COULDN'T BE THE-! "Honey! I'm home!"
