Oh Chi, you make me worry! Congrats on getting your UFO back to you in such a time. I really do think that these could really be alive with little aliens inside XD. They always know when you're down and know just how to get you back up!

Stay safe, dear friend!

[Chi]

Thank you so much, acidiica.  That means a lot to me.

Well, we haven't had any severe thunderstorms since I last updated, but we DID get...a snowstorm!  To understand the full meaning of this statement, you must understand that in the area from which I hail I haven't seen snow since I was a very small child.  But no, we got a HUGE snowstorm on Wednesday (at least HUGE for where I live), and were graced with about half an inch!  It just kept coming down for several hours and blanketed the neighborhood in brilliance.  It was a magical moment, I must say.

Now, my sweet little Trill and his true love, Aria, grew up in these turbulent times, under tornado watches and through driving rains.  They were my first Tamas to see snow, for I held them up to the window to show them!  But just yesterday morning, they became adults.  Aria went first, to become a Hashizotchi, and Trill changed into a Pyonchitchi.  They both have four hearts for one another at this time, but probably won't have children until Monday or so.

I'm thinking that I've about gotten all of the characters to be had using my current technique.  For those who haven't been keeping count, here they are.

V2 (odd):  Pochitchi, Ginjirotchi, Pyonchitchi
V2 (even): Mimitchi, Memetchi
V3 (odd): Memetchi, Hanatchi, Hashizotchi
V3 (even): Teketchi, Urutchi

If you want one of those characters, now you know when and how to go about it!  Now, I plan to try to discipline every time that it calls, but keep feeding it random foods.  The catch is, lately I've been so busy that they don't get all of their disciplines in in the first place, so the meter probably still won't be full.  We'll see what I get!

Do you mean half an inch or half a foot? I'm confused, but glad you're okay.

[Chi]

No, it was half an inch.  Half a foot--ah, that is a dream!

So, yesterday afternoon Trill and Aria made fireworks, gracing me with a pair of rambunctious baby boys!  I was careful to bring Trill to Aria, because I always like to watch the birth sequence.  I've been taking care of everybody with as much care as possible, seeing as how RL is getting in my way again, and I'm quite sure they'll depart tonight.  However, I won't be able to raise them until Saturday, most likely, so until then!

[Chi]

Well, around noon today I decided that it was time to raise my new baby boys!  "Enough, real life!" I said.  "I'll have my fun today!"

I raised them at the same time with a small lapse in between starting them, as I have grown accustomed to doing, while I watched my favorite detective show on DVD.  I named my V3 son Oboe, and the V2 Tuba.  (By the way, Oboe is the 24th generation in a long line of V3 children!--Tuba is exactly ten generations behind at 14.)  It seemed to me that, at least for a while, Oboe was a bit less needy, but once Tuba started getting in on the action they were both running rampant.  As the star of the show closed the case, Oboe became a sweet little Mohitamatchi--a character I haven't seen for quite a while!  Shortly afterwards Tuba became a Kinkomotchi, which appears to be my V2's character of choice.  Will be expecting teens around Monday, but I could be surprised!  Until then!

[Chi]

As seems to be becoming a trend, my Tamas have been teens all week long, but I just haven't gotten the time to post!  (They're not adults yet, though--they've been paused so much that they're only two.)     Tuba has become a Young Mimitchi, and Oboe is a Hinatchi.  Both are characters I haven't seen for a while, and both are quite healthy, another surprise!  It seems as though, lately, my Tama-caretaking had been going down the tubes.  Just a reminder, I'm doing all the discipline I can, so perhaps it's just that this makes a large difference in the teen/adult characters.  I don't really know!

[Chi]

Uurgh!  Once again, I feel guilty for having not updated, but...well, I've been quite busy.  Two nights ago a monster storm blew through our area.  Now, I had heard that things were going to get bad sometime after midnight, but I wasn't really expecting much.  Well, I woke up at three to find that the sky was constantly being lit up with lightning.  It almost looked like morning, or a clear night with a full moon.  Half-asleep, I was wondering whatever had woken me up when the tornado siren went off. 

Panicked, I grabbed up my drowsy dog and my Tamagotchis and ran into my bathroom, which is the only room in the house with no windows.  Thankfully, I'd had the foresight to set up the night before with blankets, a radio and a flashlight.  I set my dog in the bathtub and turned to our local weather station, only to discover that a tornado was "bouncing" from the sky to the ground...and it was coming right at us.  Around this time, I decided to get into the bathtub myself and cover up with the blanket.  The wind was howling, hail was pitter-pattering on my roof and (although I couldn't see it) I knew that lightning was lighting up the sky.  I listened with muted distress until, around a half hour later, they stated that the funnel cloud had "bounced" right over us without touching down.  Our tornado warning expired a half hour later, and I went back to sleep.

The next morning, when I woke up (late), I was greeted with the changing tunes of Tuba and Oboe.  Tuba became a Marumimitchi, and Oboe, a Chomametchi.  To think, their discipline was only half-full!    I kind of think of them now as the Mickey Mouse brothers, or something like that.  Well, with a bit of luck I'll be able to tell you all when the Matchmaker comes.  Until then!

Gee, that sure sounds scary. Yet so exiting(yup, I'm nuts)!!

We've never had anything like that over here, nor will have... oh beside in 1953, the hottest day in Swedish history: Made most woods, forests, woodlands catch on fire and, from what I've heard, it was a total hell(literally!). It lasted for about 3 days and after that there where practically no woods, forests and/or woodlands left! xD
Other than that: Nada!

I'm glad it wasn't serious and everything turned out OK for you. :]

[Chi]

Wow.  That's....I bet that was really scary.  Thank you for the comment, though, Seraphim!

Yesterday Oboe and Tuba had a visit from the Matchmaker.  She brought Tuba a Takotchi (whoo!  P2 Tama!) and Oboe, a Mimiyoritchi.  A few minutes later, fireworks lit up the screen and I saw that they had both had baby girls!  I'm not sure just when I'll get the chance to raise them, because I'll be at a figure skating competition next weekend.  (Wish me luck!   )  Perhaps on Sunday afternoon...?

[Koluki]

If you're anything like me, that'd be at midnight Sunday. Don't take it personally!

That means you have to use the matchmaker right? I wish you luck in getting mateable tamas next generation!
