Author's Note
"'Nyup nyup... Hello, Amélie here. We just moved. Wow, did she ever have it rough. Who's 'she'? The lady at our house. I tell you, she is the minister of moving. The old guy just drew manga the whole time. What a jerk. I got pretty worn out myself... I'm going to take a little nap here with my cheese stick. Nyup nyup...zzzzz...'"
