So since I last posted monkey had a couple hiccups, but all is well in MonkeyLand!

What a week it has been. Monkey is still learning what Goddess Annika means by living on a tight budget. I did break the budget a couple of times but I think I am doing much better than I did before. Old habits cant be broken right away, right?

Goddess Annika spelled out her plan for monkey and her birthday bash. While monkey was not granted his request, he was given a just as important assignment. Monkey is hard at work saving for this, I really have to pay attention to what I spend now because I dont want to disappoint Goddess Annika on her most sacred day!

Monkey must have a horseshoe or something firmly tucked in his ass because over the last few days Goddess Annika has been extremely generous and spoiled the monkey rotten. I must have done well over the last little while to please the Goddess as she created a new photoshoot this week, and while picking out her attire she thought of the monkey!

At first I wasn’t sure what this meant, but when Goddess Annika explained more, monkey’s little brain went into monkey overload. Goddess Annika chose an outfit that completely destroyed the monkey, turning him into mush and I’m sure brainwashing whatever self-thinking, self-doing processes he had left.

The night of the shoot teased and tormented the monkey. At one point before the shoot, due to a little mishap that turned out also to be in monkey’s favour, Goddess Annika made an appearance on cam while she was waiting for the mishap to fix itself. Late into the night, around 430 in the morning, Goddess Annika dismissed the monkey for the evening. I really didn’t want to leave because I was waiting in anticipation of the shoot. When Goddess Annika decided she was done for the evening, I was pretty convinced that the shoot was cancelled even after Goddess Annika put in so much work to prepare for it. I was convinced She wasn’t going to repeat it. If another shoot came, it would be different than the one she had intended to do. Monkey was off to bed, and Goddess was off to munch. As monkey has learned over the years, late night snacks 9 times out of 10, turn into a nap or relaxation. Monkey was sad and feeling lost.

BUT THEN……………..

Monkey woke up in the morning and on her MFI blog was a posted picture that HAD to be from her new shoot. Monkey died and went to little monkey heaven! I sat there and stared and stared at it all day. I so badly wanted to save it to my computer but I didn’t. I didn’t want to save it without permission and I didn’t want to risk losing anymore surprises that may come. As soon as I saw Goddess Annika come online, I immediately jumped in her chatbox thanking her profusely and admitted he wanted to steal the photo but he didn’t. Goddess Annika allowed him the priviledge to save it.

Just tonight, as I write this post to thank her for the work she has done, Goddess Annika has spoiled the monkey once more and sent him a SECOND photo from the set!! This blog has taken me forever to write, and I’m sure it’s because I keep getting distracted by my desktop background. All of this is permanently embedded into my mind. I cant stop thinking about her outfit, I cant stop thinking about Goddess Annika, I cant stop thinking about her birthday, I must make sure this birthday is the best birthday EVER!!

Thank you very much Goddess Annika for all the little treats. Monkey does not deserve them but he is VERY honored that you thought of him. Monkey knows what you did is a very rare treat and he knows it will be a while before it happens again. Monkey will cherish these gifts for as long as he lives!!
