AspieLocks decided she must make a camp and wait till mourning and get her bearings with the mourning sun. "I'm cold it would be nice if I had a fire". AspieLocks remembered how her father rubbed two sticks together to make fire but that would be hard work for a young girl. AspieLocks decided she could use the wind to rub the sticks together but she had to build a windmill. Having built a horizontal axis windmill that she had to hand turn to start, the windmill began spinning fast. She held a dry block of wood under the shaft of the windmill.
Finally, a fire! Luckily for Aspielocks the barn next to the house in the middle of the clearing was full of tools and building materials. Hmmm. Aspielocks thought hard for a minute. Then for another minute. “Eureka!” she exclaimed to herself. “If I could find a ladder in that barn, I could get up on the roof. From there I could surely spot a landmark or two.” The first ladder she found was a 30 footer. “Oh, this ladder is too long. I’m not nearly strong enough to handle it.” The next one she found was a stepladder. “Oh this ladder is too short, I couldn’t change a light bulb with it.” The next ladder she found was just right.
She was so distracted by the moss she did not notice the bears that came up behind her, Koala, Shock and Inertia, koala bears who were afflicted with koala autism. “Sorry, we can't kill any of the principals,” said Koala. “If we kill any of the principals we have no story,” said Shock. “And if we have no story I can't shape over words on your computer screen,” said Inertia.
