     God, Gabi. It's things like that that make me really really fortunate that I've met such a wonderful and caring person like you...*HUG* I was nearly in tears when I read you comment and can't thank you enough for the support. Patrick's loss hit us all hard, but mostly my mom who still remains quite about the whole thing. He was a happy old rabbit who had a good life, and you're completely right. He isn't truly dead, he's just begun to live. 
 
     Sometimes I get so overwhelmed at how much is changing in my life and I start to really panic, but who wouldn't? Sometimes I feel as if I have no control what so ever, and that I'm just along for the ride. But you made an excellent point. No matter how overwhelmed I feel, I will always have wonderful, brilliant people to surround me and support me (you being one of them). I just don't realize it, and I should.
 
     Thank you so much, Gabi. *long-lost sister hug* I feel so much better!Your truly are a wonderful and gifted person, and I feel so so lucky to have met you. Who else could understand the weird, cat-obsessed, eccentric Avali better than you? What I need to do is not get so worked up and take things one at a time and sort out all this crap. Catching up on much needed rest will be my first priority. ^^

Gabi, I can't breathe! *pants* Too much stuff...grades...family...food poisoning...sock puppets...tuna fish...GAH! My life has been a living hell hole (pardon my language) and everything that could possibly happen, happened!
 
     My mom's graduation went really well and all. She got to see her life-long friend, sister, and mom, but then her sister got food poisoning over the weekend and had to be taken to the emergency room by my dad, so they missed the ceremony, and and,it took Cady and I almost half an hour to swim through people until we found our mom after the ceremony, and my rabbit died! And I had to give a presentation on Egypt that following Monday and entertain and host, and memorize a monologue, and *sigh* TOO-MUCH! That's it, I forfeit! I'm done. LOL, I want school to end desperately! Ha ha. 0.o
 
     So yeah, the last week has been a complete fiasco, but I'm still alive! ...just completely exhausted. ^^ *questions sanity*
 
     Bart is mad at me, or at least he's sulking right now. His twin brother Ollie and he are always competing to be the alpha cat, and well...
   ...today Ollie celebrated his victory, so Bart is being a butt head right now. I tried petting him earlier and he just seemed annoyed. Ha ha, have you ever seen a cat sulk? It's hilarious! I think I'll dress him up and take pictures just to torture him. *ponders mischievously*
 
     Any-Who, I apologize for ranting in this comment! I hope you are doing well! *hugs* I have some big plans for FAC (including your secret special surprise), but unfortunately, I won't be able to work on any of it until after my finals. (Cry with me.) LOL, but I'm already working on a written piece that I intend to submit here very soon. I think you'll like it! Love ya much!
 
Missed you tremendously! I could use one of your cupcakes right now. Tee hee.

goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooood day the almighty teapot lord is here ^^ how r u i havnt heared from u in ages ^____^ also tea leaves are a LIE!! The tea lord has spoken...

...oh the chaos that can unfold with baking cupcakes...^^ He he, that sounds like so much fun! You guys will have a blast! By the way, good for you Gabi! Your so nice, tutoring the strugglings! (that's what I call 'em) You must be at the top of your class huh? *thumbs up* I'm sure people really really appreciate the fact that your surviving on nothing but baegles, just for them!

I can't do anything but agree with you how hectic life is right now! (by the way, my mother appreciates your praise and excitement. She's so excited too. My Dad, sister, and I bought her a five hundred dollar leather bag from coach the other day as her present. OMG, it's beautiful!) Everything is moving so fast, but in a really good way. Like today everyone in my speech class had to preform our 1 min. and 30 second monoloque, and the dragon lady said I did a beautiful job on mine!!! Also, I made some five-layer dip for my Spanish class tomorrow, cuz we are gonna celebrate Cinco De Mayo! Also a yay! And-and, I'm almost finished with my report on the country Egypt! *thinks* Geez, I'm swamped. He he. But anyways, you have a wonderful weekend, and make sure to bake lots and lots of cupcakes. (those really do sound good...)

Bart: I'm on it! *raises to the laundry room where the wet cat food and dry cat food are stored*

Ick, not that kind of cupcake! ^^ Oh, and guess what Gabi? I have a secrety secret surprise for you! I bet you forgot about it huh? Mwahahahaha, what could it be?

*is amazed at your mad ninja skills* Wow, that last theory you came up with blew all of mine out of the water. Geez that was good! He he. It's probably the truth though. The guy was easily amused and only wanted a plastic pink polka-dotted ping-pong ball for his own devises. We shall never know...
 
     Guess what?!?! My mom is finally graduating this weekend and she is getting her teaching degree in fine arts!!!! Guess what else? We went shopping for dresses today to wear at the special ceremony and I bought a dress with a PLUNGING neck line. I mean seriously! Plunging. Neckline. Oh and you know what? My dad doesn't like it. He he. The dress is a really pretty blue and it had hidden pockets, and the neckline isn't that bad...^^
 
  Any-WHO, how are you faring lately?

um... how do you read stories? I can't find the link...

Jackal

Alright, here we go... The youngest brother was walking home from school one day and he found a white ferret sitting in the middle of the road. Well a car was coming and the ferret didn't move. The boy quickly picked up the lounging ferret before the car could crunch him with the pavement, thinking the whole time how stupid the animal was. When the boy and the ferret were safe on the side of the road, the ferret spoke to the boy and said, "Alas, you have just saved the mighty ferret spirit." The boy was amazed as the ferret hovered over his outstretched hand and winked at him with one of those glossy black eyes. "In order to repay your kindness I will let you in on a little secret." It spoke evenly, it's little paws tucked into his silky pelt. "The day you find a plastic pink polka-dotted ping-pong ball, I will grant you with all my ferret powers, until then...well, I bid you adieu!" And with that, the mighty ferret spirit disappeared in a cloud of smoke and the boy was left in a dazed stupor. The boy never figured out if it was a dream or it the ferret spoke the truth, but the only way to find out was to get his hands on a plastic pink polka-dotted ping-pong ball. ^^ We should put these together and sumit them as the Plastic Pink Polka-Dotted Ping-Pong Ball Theories!!!! You think?

Man, yours was hilarious. Let's see if I can come up with another...
 
     So the youngest son had a vision when he was a little boy about receiving a plastic pink polka-dotted ping-pong ball with supernatural powers. When the boy received the ping-pong ball, a chain of events would unfold. He would discover the cure for cancer, invent flying cars, and open up our world to the future practice of swimming in the air...
 
 Fwoosh, that took some brain power. ^^ Your turn!

Grrrr....I know! That's exactly what I thought when I first heard it. It made me so mad, because I really wanted to know...BADLY. Urgh.... I really do think we should think up some theories to answer this, cuz It'll drive us crazy! *ponders*
 
    ...the youngest son could of fallen in love with a profession female ping-pong ball champion who always used a plastic pink polka-dotted ping-pong ball... 0.o he he, your turn!
 
   -can't wait to read more of your work. I have come cute little stupid things I might submit here real soon! ^^

*laughs mischievously*  You really want to know the plastic pink polka-dotted ping-pong ball joke? It will drive you crazy to no end...mwahahaha. Ok here we go:
 
     Once there was a man who had three sons all different in age. When all his sons graduated from high school, he asked each of them what they wanted as a gift. The first and oldest son asked for a new car, so the dad bought him a nice flashy car. The second oldest son asked for a new computer, so the father bought him the most expensive one he could find. Finally he asked the third and youngest son what he wanted for a graduation present, and the son plainly said, "Gosh, I've always dreamed of owning a plastic pink polka-dotted ping-pong ball." A bit confused, the father searched high and low for a ping-pong ball to match his son's description, but found none. He sadly told his youngest son, but the son said, "Aw, that's alright dad."
 
     Years passed and all of the man's sons were successful business men with healthy little families. As a way to award them, the father asked each one what they wanted the most. The first said two plane tickets to Hawaii for his next vacation. The father found him and his wife two first class tickets to Maui and back for a full week! The second son asked for supplies to remodel his new home in the city. The father bought him all the supplies he would need to build a second house! Finally, he asked his youngest son what he wanted most and the son replied, "Gosh, I've always wanted a plastic pink polka-dotted ping-pong ball." Still a bit confused at his son's request, he searched high and low for a ping-pong ball that matched his son's description. Disappointed that he couldn't find his son a ping-pong ball, the son only smiled and said thanks for trying.
 
     A few years passed by and the youngest son was diagnosed with a deadly disease and was on his death bed. Heavy with grief, the father visited him one day and asked, "You know, all these years I've been sending all my money on your older brothers, and not once did I buy you anything." The youngest son only smiled at this. "Dad, do you really want to know why I wanted a plastic pink polka-dotted ping-pong ball so badly?" The father's eyes widen in curiosity and he nodded. "I wanted a plastic pink polka-dotted ping-pong ball because-" Unfortunately the son died right before he was finished, leaving his father hanging on his last words.
 
     No one will ever figure out the mystery of the plastic pink polka-dotted ping-pong ball...
 
    SEE! What did I tell you?!?!?! The most infuriating joke ever!
