Cha Cha Cha Chair-a-Pet!

Be honest friends and family out there, you’ve seen and even bought one conveniently sold at both “As Seen on TV” stores and infomercials of the 80’s. We’re talking about the Chia Pet animals that grow right before your eyes: simply spread on moistened seeds of chia, add a little water, and presto you’ve got a bushy animal with Jack-in-the-Beanstalk-style growth sprouting up like a Panamanian Jungle! Now what does this have to do with ME? Well, crazy as it sounds, Mom and Dad (or does MaD sound better?) succumbed to the hypnotic spell of the salesperson at the Seen on TV store, in that they bought a Chia Buddha (ME don’t think they make ‘em, but he makes the story more interesting: picture Buddha’s contemporary rogaine-esque Afro!) Now back on track. So when we returned home from ME’s 1st MOA (you’re in the Army now, whether you like it or not Private Acronym!) trip, Dad quickly offloaded Buddha and placed it on ME’s Mellow Yellow (MY) chair innocently enough, right? Or so it seemed…After ME made it upstairs, Dad moved Buddha and placed ME in the MY chair for another photo op.

ME believe that some of Buddha’s Mojo spilled onto the MY chair, because every time ME sit in it they grow (the photos are evidence enough!) 1, 2, 3 inches right before your eyes…maybe ME should have their own As Seen on TV (infAmercial) infomercial!

So how do ME stack up on the Buddha Growth Chart! (standing up of course!): Eleanor seems to have made a metaphysical connection with Buddha as she’s tipping the scale at almost 12 pounds. Maybe because Madelaine didn’t rub Buddha’s head (harder with the ‘fro, so theoretically less effective!), she is still on the lighter side at 10 pounds. So, in continuation of the seemingly anticlimactic battle of ME’s respective (nonexistent) lengths, ME still measure the same at 23.5 inches-look out 2 feet, here come 4 (pitter patter).

In closing, ME are still two happy, smiley chicas (ME can taste Cinco de Mayo) who rock the days away in the MY chair, growing for their next blog update! Hasta pronto! Love ya, ME!
