Lucas's+Myth

In our solar system there was no Earth at first, it did not exist, this is how it came to be. One….um… there wasn’t such thing as an Earth day, since it didn’t exist yet, so. . . I guess I’ll just start it this way.

Once upon a time, there was the Muffin Man, and he roamed the universe bored as could be. Eventually he got tired of roaming and was a little bit hungry, so he decided to do what he did best: make muffins. He gathered the Ingredients from all over the universe: he got the Eggs from the Egg Nebula, he got the Wheat and flour from the Hand of the Virgo Constellation around the star Spica, he got the sugar from the sugar molecules that are in a lot of nebulae, and finally, he got the milk from the Milky-Way galaxy. He decided to make the muffins in The Milky-Way because he was tired and didn’t want to travel anywhere for a while. He made the batter and put into muffin trays. He was soooo hungry that he decided to make tons of batter, and it filled tons of muffin trays. Finally he needed to bake them, and what's better than fresh star baked muffins? He looked around and then realized that there were so many different stars to chose from, not that it really mattered, but our sun, Sol, caught his eyes with the way all the planets that were orbiting it look, so he chose it. He brought the muffin trays to Sol to bake them, and soon he had tons of nice star baked space muffins! He feasted on the muffins for hours, and he finally was full, but he had soooo many muffins left over. He decided they would spoil soon if he saved them, but he decided to save some anyway.

Suddenly a wave of tiredness hit him. After eating a ton of fresh, tasty, star baked space muffins and floating around a nice warm fire that is known as Sol, he slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep. In his sleep he had a short but strange dream; he dreamed that all the muffins had clumped together in a sphere like shape, (What else would you expect from muffins? It’s not like they can make a perfect sphere), then the muffins formed a high amount gravity due to their mass. They then had enough mass and enough gravity to force themselves into one chunk of muffin mass in his dream.

When he awoke, he found it to be true. While he was astonished he also decided to leave it alone, for he had a dream about it, and it came true. So the muffin man once again started roaming the universe, and was never to be seen again, until he found out about Cherry Lane. The chunk of muffins then started orbiting the sun and over time then got to how we know it as it is today. But that's besides the point; this story is about how the Earth was made, and now you know how it was, and yes in fact the the muffin man does indeed live on Cherry Lane.
