December 27 (Dalek Day 361/365)

The Daleks were in a ebullient mood today.  “While all of your kind has been in a post-Christmas state of relaxation, we’ve been getting important stuff done,” they declared this afternoon.

“Like what?,” I asked.

“How about gathering photographic evidence of life on Mars for a start?,” they retorted.

And you know, for a moment (until I saw their photo), they almost had me.  Almost.

The Dalek told me that it was going to surprise me with some French cuisine tonight, so when I finally saw what it had “prepared,” I was a bit taken aback.  “And what exactly is it that I have in front of me?,” I cautiously enquired.  The Dalek looked crestfallen and uttered, “You don’t recognize it? It’s Chicken, Cord, On Blue.”

Tonight Daleks transported themselves to try out a new restaurant on the moon.  When they returned I asked how it was, and they summed up the experience in seven words – “Great food, but there was no atmosphere.”

December 4 (Dalek Day 338/365)

Today the Daleks experienced a revelation.  “We never understood the frenzied Black Friday shopping mentality, until today” one of them told me tonight.  “We went out shopping with no intention of buying anything, but once we came across this sale on pillows filled with duck feathers, well we just couldn’t turn it down.”

In an uncharacteristically charitable gesture this morning, the Daleks donned their chef’s hats to cook breakfast for a troop of scout who were camping at the beach.  They also decided to feed the dolphin-like creatures in the bay at the same time, which is why when the food was ready they shouted out “Breakfast is now ready – for all in tents and porpoises!”

Today, the Daleks asked if I could take them to a campground, so I obliged. However they seemed disappointed when we got there.  “Where are all the adrenaline junkies?,” they asked.   Puzzled, I asked why they expected to see thrill seekers  here.   Well, it turns out that they asked someone for information about this activity, and the response they got was “Camping? That’s in tents!”

October 30 (Dalek Day 303/365)

In a shallow and vainglorious attempt to improve their public perception, tonight the Daleks surrounded themselves with objects that they thought would have broad appeal.  Unfortunately for them, their understanding of “eye candy” is a bit wonky…

October 25 (Dalek Day 298/365)

Things got a little psychedelic around here today as the Daleks delved into the big questions first posed by Queen…

“Is this the real life? Is this just a Fanta sea?”

October 10 (Dalek Day 283/365)

The bronze Dalek’s sleeping habits are becoming more and more erratic (perhaps as a result of the coffee intake as noted on October 2.) This morning I found it in a bed underneath the kitchen sink.  Why?  “To ensure that I wake before Dawn, of course.” Of course.

October 9 (Dalek Day 282/365)

The blue Dalek was in full investigative mode while I was cooking spaghetti tonight.

“There is an impasta in our midst,” it boisterously declared.

And indeed, there was.  🙂
