ned is weird

i heard footsteps early this morning carefully sneaking past my chambers. i deftly hopped out of bed and checked the surveillance monitor. it was ned! he was tip-toeing way more cautiously than any situation would ever warrant. it was like he was in super slow motion. there was something else that struck me as odd as well, but i couldn't make it out on the monitor, so i decided to investigate. i cautiously opened my door without making a sound and stepped out of my room and slowly inched my way along the wall keeping my distance from the infuriatingly slow moving ned. as i got as close as i thought was possible without arousing his suspicion, i realized what it was that i noticed on the camera that made his crazy, slow walk seem even more bizarre; he was vibrating. it was somehow unsettling to witness. i had to get a better angle to see what could be causing it. i was worried about ned spotting me because he can be dangerous when frightened or surprised or looked at, but i had to move in. when i got in better position to see his face i realized he was biting his lip and had tears streaming down his face. the vibrating was due to his trying very hard to hold back an outburst of laughter. this intrigued me, so i decided i would follow him all the way to wherever he was going just to see what was so hilarious. it would take a while though; so far i had follwed him just about 3 yards. i will update as my investigation developes.
