Recently, she starts this new thing where she cant even eat any vegetables. Every time I go over to her place, the cat looks at me with these sad eyes, like,” Meatplease?”2My cousin Pat is a professional clown. He goes by the name Patty Cakes.

Hell show up at his friends house and start making balloon hats for everyone. And then theres his pet duck, Phoebe. Pat use Phoebe in his clown act, but sometimes he doesnt have time to take her home after work, so he just brings her along wherever hes going.

He can get pretty extreme about it. Hes always pretending to be a character from a movies or TV show.

Andrew, get out of my room .Im studying .Youre so irritating.” Andrew hed say, Irritating? Ah, yes, one of your earthling emotions.” Stuff like that, a line right out of Star Trek. Now, sometimes, its funny. Like now hes doing Harry Potter voices .But we worry about him a lot .I mean, does he even know who he is?
