A Picture is Worth a 1000 Words

So I thought I'd give you some insight into how Spongebob got back to Utah.
Before Spongebob got back to Utah, CMH got hit a couple of times. The first time I had him taped under the handle of the driver's door on his car. As he was in the process of unlocking his car, he found it..  Because it had to come back to Utah though, he just gave it back to me.

Good idea? Hahaha, maybe not.

On Friday morning, CMH and I stopped in Pocatello to run an errand on our way down to Utah and I just happened to have his phone. I was playing with it and came up with a brilliant plan.  See, his phone has a unique setting for it.  It can have three different pictures as the wallpaper and by simply sliding your finger across the phone screen you can change the picture to see the others. However, which ever picture is showing when it goes off is the one that shows up the next time it is turned on.  Over time, I took over the pictures on his phone, taking pictures of me and setting them as one of the three wallpaper.  There is one that he likes more than the others and that is the picture that usually shows up.  (That detail may not seem very important, but it will be later on in the story.)

Anyways, I guess he wasn't a big fan of one of the goofier pictures that I took, so he put one of his friend on as the wallpaper instead. Okay, so here I am, sitting by myself with Spongebob in my pocket.  I sneakily pulled Spongebob out of my pocket, making sure to keep it hidden from CMH, and took a picture of it.  I then set it as the third wallpaper, the one that wasn't a picture of me.  I made it so his favorite picture of me was showing again so that it wouldn't be an immediate find, and then gave him back his phone.

When we got home, I placed Spongebob in the toy basket in my room, where he was hidden for some time.  I'm not sure how he ended up on the piano, but that is where I saw him next.

So Sunday came, and CMH never said anything about finding Spongebob on his phone.  He had left it on the counter in the kitchen and was nowhere to be seen, so I checked to see if that creepy little fella was still his wallpaper.  When I turned on his phone, his favorite picture was the one that popped up.  Scrolling through the three pictures, I found that Spongebob was still there.  In an effort to make him found, I set the other picture of me as the main wallpaper, so that he would have to slide the page to get back to his favorite.  Finally, as we were driving home, he turned on his phone and started laughing.  When I asked him what was up, he showed me the picture of Spongebob and stated that he wondered who did it to him.  I told him that I took the picture clear back on Friday when we were in Pocatello.  He was completely clueless that I had done it for practically three days.
