Just another day in Mouse London...

Dear Diary,

Hello, again, it's your dear friend Livvy. Another day has gone by in Mouse London, & now I'm jotting down the events of the day before Daddy & Basil go to tuck me in.

OK, after I got up & had breakfast, I went to my mega-playroom & turned on my big-screen TV so I could watch cartoons. My most favorite show, "Punch & Judy", happened to be the first thing on today; you won't believe how hard I was laughing at the antics of the squabbling couple! Then after cartoons were over, I went over to the London Mouse Mini-Mall to meet up with my friends. Although it was disappointing that Ben, Akihiro, Izzy, & Armando couldn't come with us today, Luciano was there, along with my girlfriends Yukiko, Thi-Tien, Dong-Mei, Audrey, Bianca, Santusa, Cherise, & Mumtaz. We were all going to attend a book-signing--& Thi-Tien was going to be the autographer! (You see, Thi-Tien is one of the best mouseling authors in London [not to mention her home country of Vietnam], & she's written a lot of best-selling books.) We stayed at the mall for over two hours, watching Thi-Tien sign every single copy of her most recent junior detective novel--but it was well worth it!

After the book-signing, we went over to Luciano's family's pizza parlor for lunch. As usual, the Mozzarellos were more than happy to give us a free meal of pasta, pizza, & soda pop. Not to mention their newest dessert, chocolate lasagna...mmm!

Once we had finished our meal, Luciano took us to the Crystal Palace near Piccadilly Circus. There, all kinds of new inventions for the humans were being displayed, from telephones to elevators! We rodent-folk already have those things, though--Luci just took us so we could see the looks on the people's faces; it's like they've never seen a lift before!

After a long while of playing with toys in my mega-playroom, my friends & I went to visit Daddy at the toy shop he works in. My girlfriends & I helped him with making his toys, while Luciano helped out with the customers. Once the sales were done for the day, Daddy took my friends home, & after bidding everyone "goodbye", we headed off for our own house, &, well, you get the picture.

Well, have to go to bed. Daddy & Basil are just dying to sing my sleepy song tonight...

--Much love,
Livvy
