The Day the Inky Pencil Shrieked Back

Last Thursday at the end of of the day
in Social Studies I was chewing on a blue pencil
that my my friend Joey had given me. All of a sudden, it
tasted a funny taste I had never tasted before. So
I rubbed my tongue with my hand. After I was
done rubbing, I looked at my hand and saw
blue stuff all over. So I walked over to
the sink to see what the blue stuff
was. When I got to the sink,
my sometimes friend, but mostly
enemy was there, Greg. I told him
about my blue hand and funny
taste, but he just laughed. After
a few minutes, he stopped laughing
and told me that I had ink all
over my face. I ran into the
bathroom, and looked in the mirror.
There was ink all over my face!
My friend Wallace came in to check on
me, then Jared came in to get me.
My teacher chewed my head off.
I'm not ever going to chew on a pen again!

NOT!
