Hey, guys. 

Chatterbox: Chirp at Cricket

Hey, guys. 

Hey, guys. 

I don't know if you remember, but there's this CBer named Abigail with an annoying AE and a crazy CAPTCHA, and none of them have been around lately. Just, my life has been insanely busy around now. And I don't often have time for CB between, let's see, two soccer practices, violin, a dance recital, soccer, a play audition, soccer, middle school homework, and DID I MENTION SOCCER?

It's been, like, three weeks since I've even SEEN those red bars on the edge of CB. And I know it's really selfish of me, but.... I just came on today... and I was hoping someone would have a thread or a comment or SOMETHING that said... "Hey, where's Abi gone?" Too much to ask? Because I just... want to think that you guys like me... or something...

Anyway, I'll be around more (hopefully) since it's winter break and all, if anyone cares at all.

And one final outcry: 

PLEASE!!!! PLEASE!!!! Answer me! Are you still reading my CB camp story, guys? (Besides Sydney, Joan, and Puck, because they've already confirmed their existance.) Or do you really just want me to let it die? I don't really but there's no point if nobody's there. 

So.

back to the Chirp at Cricket

Actually, I was just wondering what happened with you. I even posted the first part of my ski lodge from your perspective to see if it would attract your attention. When I saw this, I broke into a sweat. Abigail's leaving? NO! Too many people are leaving! And she'll never get to finish reading my ski lodge! Isn't that important? or has she just forgotten about it?

So I read the thread, naturally, and discovered that you were actually really busy and not around much, but still here. So it's all good.

Thanks, Scylla. Now I have to go and read your Ski Lodge!

I hadn't noticed you as missing, but I've been thinking about you a lot. I haven't forgotten about you! Like Scylla, I thought you were leaving when I saw this thread. My heart started beating extra fast and I got really sad. I'm  really glad you'real still here! Don't worry about not having much time, it happens to us all. PLEASE try to post more often if you can. It's ok if you can't. Just don't leave and don't think anyone doesn't like you. You are an awesomely awesome person and I hope I can get to know you better.

Well, I won't lie, I haven't been reading your Camp story. I thought it was dead. I checked the thread after writing that last sentence and realized that it was not, in fact, dead. (Well, at least not as dead as I thought it was.)

You really should keep writing, though; you're a fantastic writer and the story is quite funny (and suspenseful)!

Also, I missed you, but I assumed it was something personal. I think a lot of other people assumed that as well, since you did say that your life was getting quite busy. 

But please come back! We do care about you! <3

I kind of notice some people are just posting less, with Christmas and stuff like tht. But I really don't want you or anyone else to leave. The CB may be slowing down a bit, but we can still hang around it and participate, right?

I've seen/met so many cool people on the CB that I couln't bear to see leave.

You're one of them.

I know I don't know you so well, but I want to get to know ore people.

Shifting: Don't "^^"" her.

Volcano: ":D" her!

Shifting: Don't do that either. Don't keyboard emoji her. 

Somebody: But--

Shifting: None of that.

Somebody: I--

Shifting: None of that either.

Somebody: *runs away and listens to cute Vocaloid songs*

Shifting: COME BACK HERE YOU-- APOLOGIZE TO THE WOMAN!!  

Somebody: NOOOOO ABIGAIL HATES ME NOW AND I'M A TERRIBLE PERSON 

...etc., etc., etc. 

Volcano: I think we just hit puberty.

Aw, Somebody, I don't hate you! Why would you think that?

Because I'm a dramatic, overreacting preteen (I just turned twelve today) and like to make a big deal out of nothing. 

Shifting: Yes, much ado about nothing.

Somebody: Isn't that the name of a Shakespeare play?

Shifting: Yes.

...have you read any Shakespeare?

Somebody: No...?

Shifting: What's your Kindle app for?  

 

Happy Birthday, Somebody, and many happy returns!
