It's Super! Sunny! Today!... but I did feel a bit ill and have a blocked nose and headache so I've been taking it easy... And by easy I mean sleepy in a little longer and resting... and taking the dog on a lovely gentle walk that turned out to be an hour long walk... and when I got home I found that I had lost my keys on the walk... AND THEN had to backtrack where I walked only to find them at the very beginning of my walk so it turned out to be two hours instead of one.
:{
I'm so tired.
And the dog wasn't helping. She's a lazy bum and was dragging behind most of the way.

USOPP'S A FOOL
"Hey Usopp!" Came Zoro's voice from way up high in the crowsnest.
"Yeah!"
"Come and help me with this."
"Why?" Usopp asked generally surprised that Zoro would want or even ask for his help in anything to do with Zoro's training, which of course he wouldn't.
"Never mind just get up here!"
Usopp shrugged his shoulders and climbed up to the crows nest or look out post as they sometimes called it. "Okay Zoro, what do you need?" Usopp asked as he came through the door. "What's the problem? Do you need me to fix something?"
Zoro opened his one good eye. "What are you doing here Usopp?"
"What...? Well you asked me to come up here idiot!"
"What? I did not!"
"You did too!"
"I did not!"
"Did too!"
"I did not!"
"Well then, who asked me to come up here?" Usopp asked scratching the side of his itchy and irritated nose.
"I don't know maybe you were dreaming it or something!" Zoro lay back down on the floor. "If I did need your help I would have asked for it. Now could you leave so I can get some decent shut eye?"
Usopp had climbed all the way down again when he heard a banging sound come from above.
"Usopp! Sorry! but I will need you're hand with this!"
Usopp huffed in frustration and went back up the to lookout again. "What is it this time?" He asked.
"What?" Zoro opened his one good eye again and glared at Usopp. "I didn't call you get lost!" and then rolled over.
Usopp very fed up and annoyed at being messed with, and kicked Zoro's back. "Stop kidding around!"
"What the hell was that for?"
"You know what for! You asked me to come up here!"
"I did not!"
"Did too!"
"Did not!"
"Did too!"
"Did not!"
"Fine then!" Usopp turned around and walked back out the door. "Don't blame me if you call for my help and I don't come."
"No thanks, I won't be needing it." Zoro called back after him.

NAMI'S A FOOL
Nami was reading peacefully outside and enjoying the brilliant sunny weather they were having, and relaxing in peace. Well, she was.
"Hey Nami!"
"Hi Luffy," she answered, trying to ignore him and carry on with what she was reading.
"Hey!"
She raised her eyebrows and eyes from what she was reading, "Hey?"
"Heshishishishi" he giggled, and carried on looking at her staying in the same position.
"What are you up too?" Nami gave him a suspicious look.
"..." Luffy tapped his fingers together and began to look really shy.
"Luffy?" She asked still a little suspicious. "What have you done? What are you thinking?"
"..." No answer. She began to feel slightly worried about him.
"Nami?..."
"What?"
"... Would you marry me!" he looked away in a dramatic head and hair flip, and nervously ran his fingers threw it.
Nami's lower jaw dropped in shock. "Um..." 'where on earth did this come from? I would never have thought that Luffy had any such ideas.' ….
"Um, Luffy." 'How on earth am I supposed to give him a serious answer to that sort of question? From Luffy?'
Nami shook her head, "I'm sorry, but no. I can't marry you."
Luffy pulled his hat over his face, fell on his knees to the ground, with apparent tears falling to infront of him. "I knew you would say that...!" He reached his right palm out infront of him as if to try and touch her, but also to keep her away from him. "...and that's why I love you Nami!"
Nami stood up in shock and looked down at him. "Luffy, what... I ... I'm...?" she stuttered. But before she could get a second explanation out he got up and ran away from her.
"What the hell was that?" Nami shook her head, sat back down, and tried to get back into her book, but all she could think about was Luffy's tearful proposal. Nami hit her head with her book and leaned back on her deckchair. 'What have I just witnessed? Did I just break Luffy's first acknowledgement and outward expression of love towards the opposite sex? He has never acted like this before?'
She sent the remaining hours of the afternoon pretending that Luffy's outburst had not bothered her. However at closer inspection one could she that she had not turned over more than twenty pages worth. And inwardly she debating with herself if she had been a bit to mean, or whether Luffy was just being stupid.
