Part 1: During the humans’ vacation, while they were on the plane, I wanted to see what their little screens could do. Unfortunately, I… may have broken the whole row of screens. Oops… Anyway, I helped the plane humans fix them, and I didn’t break them on the way back. So… all’s well that ends …

Smoky’s Log #14
A while back, I snuck onto the humans’ computer to research a few things. I don’t know what I did, but the computer started running as slow as… well, a snail! (Although aquatic snails like me are pretty fast.) I fixed the slowness, and it seemed fine, until it started acting up again! This time …

So I needed some screws for a project, and the new umbrella for the outside table had so many! I removed the best ones, two from the center. But then I noticed the humans were outside, so I ran back to my tank, leaving the screws hanging. But what I didn’t realize was that taking …

Isabella was getting a comic book on electricity. Now, being a tinker, I wanted to read up on this. So, I put an extra one in the order, preferably in a shrink-wrapped package that would go unnoticed. However, both books ended up in the same box, and the small box ended up being filled with …

So Isabella was doing her math using a computer program. I wanted to listen in, so I hacked into the program. (What?) However, I caused the part of the screen that showed the math problem to go blank. Isabella and I tried to fix it at the same time, which caused it to start flickering! …

I noticed the humans using some program called Cricut Design Space, which connects to a cutting machine called a Cricut. Of course I wanted to try it out! I hacked into it last night and took a look at the programming to see how it worked. I didn’t know then that that would cause connection …

It works! It works! I finally made a water jetpack! I set it in my shell, so it was hidden, filled it with bubbles from the Cauldron bubbler, and shot up to the surface! Unfortunately, Isabella was watching. I panicked, hit my head on the filter, and quickly went back down. But still! Yay! Now …

The humans have this prism-shaped speaker that connects to their iPod and plays music. I knew it was going to rain a LOT, and I knew electronics and water don’t mix. When the humans forgot to bring it in, I went out there and covered it in a weighted-down plastic bag, so it didn’t get …

I have been curious about the thermostat lately. It has a screen that shows the temperature in the house, the temperature outside, and the weather outside. Naturally, I wanted to know how it knows the temperature outside, and how it knows when to change the weather animation. So I started experimenting with it. I was …
Smoky’s Log #6
Recently, I decided to play with the lights. I’d noticed lightbulbs outside the garage that changed color when you changed a setting on the phone. I decided, why not give Isabella some in her bathroom? I started to unscrew the lightbulbs, but realized I didn’t have any of the special ones! So I tried to …
