GUEST BLOGGER.
PERRY L. CRANDALL.

HELLO MY NAME IS PERRY L. CRANDALL.
MY FRIEND PAT WROTE A BOOK ABOUT ME.
SOME PEOPLE THINK THAT IS A VERY HARD THING TO DO. BUT ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS PUT ONE WORD AFTER ANOTHER A LOT OF TIMES.
THERE ARE SOME PEOPLE WHO SAY THAT I AM PAT. THAT IS SILLY. I AM PERRY. PAT IS SHORT AND HAS BLOND HAIR. I WOULD TELL YOU THAT HER HAIR USED TO BE BROWN BUT THAT WOULD NOT BE NICE. PEOPLE CAN CHANGE THEIR HAIR IF THEY WANT TO. THAT IS OKAY.
I AM NOT SHORT AND I KEEP MY HAIR BROWN. SO YOU SEE I AM NOT PAT. SOME PEOPLE SAY I AM FORREST GUMP.
THAT IS NOT TRUE. HE WAS A MOVIE STAR AND I AM NOT. ALSO HE HAD A WHITE SUIT. I WOULD NOT BE CAUGHT DEAD IN A WHITE SUITE. SO I AM NOT HIM.
I AM PERRY.
PAT IS A LADY NOT A GIRL. THAT MEANS SHE IS OLDER THAN ME. SHE LIKES MUSIC BY NEARLY DEAD PEOPLE SO SHE IS NOT AS OLD AS PEOPLE WHO LIKE MUSIC BY DEAD PEOPLE.
SHE IS A WRITER SO SHE TYPES ON A COMPUTER ALL DAY. THIS MAKES HER BACK SORE. I TELL HER THAT SHE NEEDS TO BOUNCE BUT SHE DOES NOT. SHE JUST SITS THERE AND TYPES.
SHE IS HAPPY THAT HER BOOK IS IN STORES AND THAT PEOPLE WILL BUY IT. SHE TELLS ME THAT MAYBE SOME PEOPLE WILL NOT LIKE HER BOOK.
I TELL HER NOT TO WORRY.
"DO NOT BE SAD, PAT," I SAY.
"SOME PEOPLE WILL LIKE YOUR BOOK AND SOME PEOPLE WILL NOT.
BUT THAT'S OKAY."
PAT IS MY FRIEND.
A FREIND PUTS YOU IN THEIR BOOK AND FEELS BAD IF PEOPLE DO NOT LIKE IT.
SO MAKE PAT FEEL GOOD AND LIKE HER BOOK.
AND MAKE HER FEEL EVEN BETTER AND LIKE ME.
AND IF YOU DID?
THAT WOULD BE SO TOTALLY COOL!
