The Guide

I was happy to be rid of those horrible slug creatures but being catapulted into space was not what I would have liked. What I would have liked was a fire and a good book back home after work. They are widely considered to be the most boring creatures in the galaxy the The Guide... I forgot to tell you about the guide!! The Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy is like a DIY book for the universe. The book is extremely dry humored and it seemingly has an ego of its own. The reason Ford was even on Earth in the first place is because he was doing research for The Guide. He wrote a lovely piece on us after being on Earth for fifteen years but all the editors decided to publish was "Mostly Harmless" which is a little short winded if you ask me. This Guide is where all of our information comes from that Ford and I use to stay alive.
But I have gone horribly off track I'm afraid. After being tossed into space, against all odds, Ford and I were picked up by a little space ship called the Heart Of Gold.
