I live with my parents in a pink house on Pleasant Street. It's kind of embarrassing for a ten-year-old boy to live in a pink house, but my parents don't seem to mind. In fact, they don't seem to mind much of anything. My father, Waldo Wizzle, works in a cymbal factory. It's his job to make sure that the cymbals are loud enough when you crash them. All day long he bangs cymbals together and decides if they're loud enough. His nerves are shot. Sometimes when he comes home from work, he takes two giant wads of cotton and sticks them in his ears. My mother, Wilma Wizzle, is an orphan She was raised by a woman named Edna Edge at the Roseville Home for Lost Children. My mother says that Edna Edge is Roseville's biggest thorn. She has plenty of stories to tell about Miss Edge and her nephew, Sherman. Like the time it was Christmas and Edna Edge gave Sherman a brand-new red bicycle with a bell and everything. For their Christmas presents, each of the orphans was allowed to listen to Sherman ring the bell one time. I guess it's not easy being an orphan. Anyway, that's what my mother says.
