Flowers and Balloons

The other day we talked about love. Brobee, Toodee and I were blowing up balloons and Brobee couldn’t do it. It was okay though, Toodee and I told him to keep trying and not to give up. Finally he did it! The balloon was fantastic and they made friends. Brobee was so happy. He and balloon loved each other so much. It reminded me how much I love my flower friends. I grew the flowers up from little seeds, I am like their mother and I need to keep them safe. I love them so much. They are more important than mysteries and confusion.

I really do have lots of friends here in Gabbaland. They are my best friends. I do love them, even when I am mad at them, and I am mad at Muno a lot. But I love Muno and I am glad he is my friend. Maybe I should get some balloons? Balloons make me happy. I’m going to go ask DJ Lance if he has any balloons and then play with my flower friends for the rest of the day.

Just my Imagination

After following Plex around Gabbaland all day, I finally asked if he remembered meeting my brother, Foofle. Plex said that he didn’t know Foofle and didn’t know what I was talking about. I asked Plex if he saw Foofle at the circus and Plex said no. Maybe I imagined it all? Maybe Foofle didn’t evercome to the circus and I just imagined him because I wanted my family to be there so much. I thanked Plex and walked away very sad. Then Gooble came by and we cried together for a while. That made me feel a little better. I cry sometimes but Gooble cries ALL the time.

I forgot to ask Plex about why the computer showed him and Toodee meeting Foofle. It was so hard to talk to him the first time, I don’t know if I have the energy to do it again. It is still a mystery. This computer is pretty crazy. Maybe I shouldn't be using it?

If I Were in a Fairytale...

The other day we all had a great time in Gabbaland. Plex beamed DJ Lance down to Gabbaland to play with us. DJ Lance read us a fairytale, just like my mom used to read to me. Muno wanted to pretend that he was in the fairytale and, since Muno wanted it DJ Lance let it happen. Toodee and I got pretty small parts in the fairytale. Muno was Jack and we had to be the two people to trade him some magic beans for a broken bean machine. Why would we trade magic beans for some old broken machine? I wouldn’t do that. Brobee got a really big part. He got to be the giant. I thought he didn’t even like to be big. If it were up to me I would make a fairytale about a princess trapped in a magic castle. She can't go home but they make it nice there for her. But then, she gets a fairy godmother and gets to poof back home.

After we played I decided that maybe it was time to ask Plex about my family. I was pretty scared and even though I kept following Plex around there never seemed to be a good time to ask. Maybe he is too busy planning that surprise party that Muno thinks is coming. If they are planning a party I bet it is for Muno anyway. Maybe I am wrong. Maybe it is a party for me. Maybe Foofle and the rest of my family will come. Maybe, if I ask too many questions, it will never happen. I suppose I should just keep quiet for now and wait for my fairy godmother.

It's Dancey Dance Time!

The last few days have been full of so many things! I am pretty tired from all this listening and learning. Maybe I need to relax and just play with my friends. Before I saw this mystery we used to have so much fun. We would play games and do dances. No one has come by to teach us a Dancey Dance in a little while. My favorite was when Elijah came and taught us The Puppetmaster.

Why don’t you all take a look and do The Puppetmaster with us. That might make me feel better. I can remember what fun Gabbaland is and stop all this worrying.

Listening and Learning

Today I heard Plex and DJ Lance talking about me. I think Plex knows I was in his computer room. I guess there is something in a computer called history and it shows where you have been on the computer. Here is what I heard when I was listening. Some of it I couldn’t really catch too well. I’ll have to fill in the blanks.

Plex: DJ Lance, I think that Foofa knows about the “Mystery” *mumble mumble*. How are we going to explain it to her?

DJ Lance: Plex, none of them know that this is a *mumble mumble*. They don’t know we tape everything that happens here. They certainly don’t know that *mumble mumble* play them in other countries. It would be a disaster. What does she think *mumble mumble*?

Plex: I think she is confused. She may think it is all a dream.

DJ Lance: A dream, I can work with a dream.

Then they got very quiet.

What do all those mumbles mean?

The Biggest Mystery of All

After everyone went to sleep I snuck back into Plex’s computer room to look for more information about Foofle. I typed “mystery” and “foofle” into the computer and I found something called youtube. It seems to have movies on it. After lots of looking I found a movie that showed me and Foofle going on a picnic.

This is very strange. In the movie I planted flowers all across the world and across space and through a cave to a magic ocean where Foofle was. He met Toodee and Plex and we all had a picnic. I think they were going to go surfing with him later on. I know Toodee likes to surf, she even gets to surf in her shoe commercial.

Maybe we all get to have commercials because we are famous? Why didn't I ask DJ Lance why we got to be in commercials? I just thought it was too special to ask about. Maybe we are famous because we are on the computer? But why are there things on the computer that I don’t remember. Did I dream this picnic? Does the computer save my dreams? I’m going to have to ask Plex and Toodee if they remember meeting my brother Foofle. Also, Foofle talked kind of funny, he didn’t sound like me or anyone I know at all. Does anyone know why someone would have a strange way of talking? I could understand him but his words were different. Maybe it is because I hadn’t seen him in so long. Maybe it is because it is all in my head?

What do you think of my brother Foofle? Toodee and Plex were singing a song about a mystery. This is the biggest mystery of all! Can anyone help me to find clues?

Foofa the Spy

After I saw Foofle at the circus I had to find out more. I hadn’t seen anyone in my family in so long. Brobee thinks I should ask DJ Lance or Plex but I don’t trust them. I think they are working together. They always know more than we do and they help us when we get scared or confused or do something wrong. Like that time Muno bit Brobee. Plex was right there to tell us it was wrong. DJ Lance or Plex must know about my family and since they aren’t telling me about my family they must not be good to ask.

Brobee did give me an idea about how to find out about my family. Sometimes Plex shows us things on the computer. He has so much knowledge. He has a computer in his little room between where Brobee and I live. I learned how to use the computer by watching and listening, just like I do to find animals. I typed Foofle into the computer and this strange thing called Wikipedia said that he came to Gabbaland years ago to talk about a mystery. I don’t remember this at all. Why wouldn’t I remember my brother coming to visit? This doesn’t make any sense. It said he came and it said it didn’t air in US. What does that mean? Why isn’t there air in US? Does that mean we can’t breathe? This really makes no sense to me. Maybe this computer is just wrong. I might have to learn more.

Oh, I think I hear Plex coming. I have to get out of here.

Foofle!

The other day the Ringmaster came to town and then we had a circus show. Look at me in my circus outfit for leading the parade of circus performers. Muno is there hogging the spotlight as usual. Just because he was a clown who couldn't talk I think he wanted to be in the middle of the picture. That Muno. When it was time for the circus show to start I looked up in the audience and saw my brother, Foofle, sitting there. It was so neat. He watched me lead the circus parade with my baton and my drum major hat. I wish he could have stayed with me longer or maybe I could have gone home with him. I didn’t see my mom though. I should have asked Foofle where she was. Why wasn’t she here? My family seems to know where I am. Are they not worried about me? Do they want me to come home? Why didn’t he stay with me? What is going on?

Animals!

DJ Lance lets me keep a book to draw new animals in when I find them. Looking for animals helps me to keep my mind off of things outside of Gabbaland. DJ Lance and I found a mother fox and her babies because they were making a squeaking sound. I loved seeing the little fox family. It made me happy and sad at the same time. DJ Lance just laughed and laughed when we saw the animals. His laugh sounded a little crazy. Maybe he is getting careless. Maybe I will be able to escape one day. Plex can beam people into Gabbaland, maybe he can beam me out of it? I will have to wait and see.

Today Plex beamed DJ Lance into Gabbaland and then beamed him back out. We had a lot of fun when DJ Lance came to play. He gave us all animal cards and let us dance like animals. I got to be a dolphin. I love dolphins. They are so fast and pretty and have the whole ocean to play in. I never have seen the ocean but I read about it in a book. It seems very neat.The other day, Plex showed me these dolphins playing with bubble rings on his computer. How neat!

Well, I’m going to go use my animal finding skills to see if I can get out of here. I’ll look, and listen, and wait.

I'm a Star

Guess what everybody! I'm big news! I got my own TV commercial. Muno has been in other commercials before. It seems like everything happens to Muno. The other day Muno's whole family came to visit him. No one ever comes to visit me. Then, Muno and Brobee got to visit Muno's family at their house. I never get to visit my family.

Anyway, last year Muno got to be in a commercial for a car. Look at this.
It doesn't even make sense. What is Muno doing riding in a car and going bowling with his new friends? I like to dance too but DJ Lance would never let me go dance in a place like that? Muno is just a kid like me? What makes him think he is so special anyway? Just cause DJ Lance likes him best. It seems like everyone likes Muno best. We all got shoes made for us but Muno was the first one to get his commercial released. Now I'm the big news, until someone else comes and gets their own commercial. Maybe being second isn't so good after all. So many more commercials will come after me and then everyone will forget about me and my bike. At least for now I am the big news. Look at me go!
The thing is, In Muno's commercial it was just him and his skateboard all alone in the city. At least half of my commercial is those guys on the bikes and they don't even talk to me. Whatever. Maybe someone will show my commercial to Mom. I even hear that they will make grown-up size shoes of me in the spring. At least that way my Mom can have me with her.

I'm going to go pick some flowers now. Maybe I'll knock over that block castle Muno is making. He deserves it.

Hello Everybody

Hi everyone! My name is Foofa. I live in a place called Gabbaland with my friends Muno (he's tall and friendly), Brobee (the little green one), Toodee (she likes to have fun), and Plex (a magic robot). We all like to play and dance with our special friend DJ Lance Rock. DJ Lance likes to teach us about sharing and playing together but sometimes I don't want to share. The other day Plex taught us how to use the computer. Then, after everyone went to sleep I creeped into Plex's room and used the computer to make this special place just for me. Sometimes I like to be by myself. This will be my place. My own garden of words. Sometimes I think about the world outside of Gabbaland. Once I had a family and a mother. I miss her. Maybe if I put my words out in the world on the computer she will find me. Maybe I can talk to her again.

I never ask DJ Lance about my family. He doesn’t like to talk about it very much. He likes to have fun and teach us dances. I like to play with him too. It’s neat! I learn all kinds of new things from DJ Lance. Just the other day he played superhero with us and we even got to meet Super Mister Super Hero. He was so cool. We got to be our own superheroes too, see. It is neat to have super powers. It makes you think you can do anything.

Well, it’s getting pretty late. I should probably be in bed. Goodnight friends, goodnight flowers, goodnight birds and squirrels, goodnight Gabbaland, goodnight mom, wherever you are.
