It was a dark and stormy night (of course it was! What story would make sense otherwise?) and I was bored. Like, totally. Nothing was capturing my interest, so I decided to rearrange my poor, overcrowded wardrobe. (As you do.)
I figured that if I moved everything out, it would make like easier, and so I began to do just that. Imagine my surprise when I shifed a box full of things I had to mend from the top shelf and discovered a nest full of coloured eggs! I was so surprised that I almost fell off the chair I was using to stand on. Then I catually did when a creature BOUNCED out of nowhere, and said 'hi!'
In queer pidgin english, the creature explained that it was a Springtail, and it was the guardian of the eggs I had discovered. They had once lived under my bed, but due to me shifting furniture around, it was decided that the wardrobe was a safer place.
Stunned, I could only nod as the Springtail told me that the eggs were due to hatch any day, and wanted me to find decent homes for them. I agreed, of course. What else could I do? It was obvious that I wan't dreaming - after all, I couldn't even get into my bed thanks to all the clothes I had dumped on it for sorting.
And so, here is my plea. Help me find homes for these gorgeous little critters! They will return your care with unconditional love, and make your life so much brighter.
