Herman's Holiday

One day, Herman just upright and disappeared! I had no clue where he was, or where he was, or where to find him! (hehe)

I searched everywhere, all my drawers, the microfridge, the juice bar in StarMarket, all the local fruit hangouts, even the Veggie hangouts! He was Nowhere!!!

So what did I do? Just what anyone else would do, I sent out an APB

I placed the APB all over campus, and hoped that he was alright. I got a few messages from people claiming to have seen him.

"I have Herman...he's in my pants!"

"I saw Herman running down Nickerson field...I tried to get him, but he was too fast...I'll try again later"

"If you ever want to see Herman again, bring an apple and a potato(e) to the mail room, leave it in an unmarked lunch bag and walk away"

I managed to deal with all this, and went on with my life, but all the while wondering if he left because I did not buy him the cotton candy at the Celtics game the week before. It was a long long week with out Herman. I was finally getting back to my old life, when, while dancing in my bathrobe on the fifth floor, I felt something in my pocket, something oddly familiar. What could it be? It was in fact Herman, returning to me! I was a happy man. I took him out skating with me that night, and bought him all the cotton candy he could handle. It was a storybook ending.
