sigmund pregnant

Eek! What I thought was the radio was actually the air conditioner. Poor Hershey almost froze to death. He's pretty fat now...61 kg. He likes icecream a lot (he never turns it down even if he turns down other food) and he hates losing at Scissors, Paper, Rock (he makes a mad face). This little guy is very needy. I have no idea how people keep their Tamagochis alive without carrying them around with them all the time. Hershey's already gotten sick three times.
Re: Sea Monkeys. Now I count THREE pregnant Sea Monkeys...Allison's not gonna like this...SIGMUND IS PREGNANT! Yes, Sigmund is actually a Sigmundia. Tonight I'm seeing Men In Black with Jeff. Watched the Marstuff yesterday...wow!!

men in black

Am working all weekend; ah, the joys of being self-employed. :-) Saw Men In Black last night and LOVED it. Hershey weighs 95kg and how has a small tail and a little tuft of something on top of his head. I confess I did an experiment yesterday to see how much icecream he would eat (I would make a terrible mother, wouldn't I?) and now he's hooked on it, cries if I don't give it to him regularly. He seems to sleep straight from 9 pm to 9 am. Set up an online bookstore today for Inkspot; check it out if you like and feel free to make suggestion on what writing-related books I should add. Am spending the rest of the day trying to catch up on biz email (over 600 messages...wish me luck). 3:47:47 PM Now THREE pairs of Sea Monkeys are embracing. There is definitely something going on in Sea Monkey land.

r.i.p. Hershey

Hershey is dead! :-( I'm not exactly sure why. He woke up at 10 a.m. this morning and I waited a few minutes before coming to pay attention to him, and when I did, there was a little halo over his head! Perhaps he took ill in the night because I forgot to turn off the air conditioner. Anyway, I've hatched a new Tamagochi guy and named him Milquetoast. I've decided to try a little experiment with Milquetoast because I'm really curious about his programming algorithm...I'm going to feed and bathe him when necessary, but not play with him at ALL. Will he die from lack of attention? Or grow up to be a hardened, cynical Tamagochi who has difficulty in sustaining a meaningful relationship? Time will tell...

sea monkey explosion

The Sea Monkey tank is brimming full of baby Sea Monkeys. Population explosion! I read further in the Handbook and found out that the briny embrace I mentioned early is referred to as the "Dance Of Courtship" (stop laughing!). Well, the Dance continues.

ut comic

A new UT Comic Strip is up! In case you haven't guessed, I've gone through a few Tamagochi creatures since Hershey. The thing is, you can't leave them alone for more than four hours. They die of hunger, or get sick and die, or die of boredom, or just out of spite. It's as if they all share a secret Tamagochi Death Wish, a yearning for something better (and can you blame them, really?). I did discover that instead of giving them physical affection, I can substitute icecream instead. Perhaps this only works for my particular kind of Tamagochi clone. In any case, I don't recommend that you try this at home. Site of the day: TV Listings Satellite guide.
