May Monkey!

Once again, Martine and I are late with the monthly Monkey. Our apologies!

The theme for the May Monkey is: When we are not ourselves: describe a time when you were “out of character.”

And as always… It’s not a meme, it’s a monkey!

    12 Monkeys: Out of My Element

    May’s Monkey is late. Damn you, Blork. Damn you. Anyway, this month’s item is: When we are not ourselves: describe a time when you were “out of character.” I’m going to answer this a little differently than was probably intended….
