Tamagotchi!

7:51 am. – I awoke this morning with the fear that my poor Albert would be in need of some serious care – only to find that he was still asleep.  Apparently I didn’t need to worry as much about him as I thought I did.

9:01 am.  – Albert finally decided to wake up after sleeping for over twelve hours.  The only thing I can figure out is that he was awake at some point during the night.  Amazingly his stats were mostly full and I only had to feed him one hamburger to satisfy him.

11:08 am. - I pulled Albert out of my pocket during class, only to discover that he was sick.  I ended up giving him two doses of medicine, which he was not happy about, but he is now feeling much better.

5:35 pm. – Albert startled me just a minute ago with frantic beeping.  After being quiet nearly all day, this frightened me so I picked him up, only to find that he was moving on to his next stage of life.  Now, instead of being a floating blob, he is a walking blob, with two legs and looks somewhat like a baby chicken.  He is now four years old and weighs 87 pounds…I think he is seriously obese…but at least he’s happy!

The first day of activation is lost, but it passed rather uneventfully – so forget October 31 and begin today, November 1, 2009.

11:50 a.m. - I was surprised to get out of the car only to have my pocket beeping in anger.  When I pulled my Tamagotchi, whom I have named Albert, from my pocket, I found that he had left me a stinky present - which I had to promptly clean up by flushing it from the screen.  His stats were still full, so I placed him back into the world of forgotten-ness. 

12:27 p.m.- Albert is hungry.  How the floating blob of 45 pounds could possibly be in need of food already, I have no clue.  So I fed him, two meals of what can only be described as a hamburger, only to find that he was now lacking in the category of happiness…thus, we had to engage in two games of guess the number.

10:30 p.m.- Albert went to sleep two hours ago while I was working on my NaNoWriMo, so I don’t feel bad when I say that my tamagotchi is obese.  As in, he’s three years old and weighs 69 pounds.  I think he needs to lay off the cake – and I need to play games with him, but that’s beside the point.  Looking back, today was rather uneventful.  I only received two poos and I managed to keep him from getting sick.  It will be interesting to see how tomorrow passes since I am taking him to college with me…

So…
Over the weekend, one of my friends re-introduced me to the world of tamagotchis. Seeing her impressive collection of the digital pets, I was driven by an urge which I was unable to surpress, to get my own out. Of course the batteries were long since dead, so we made a trip to the local Wal-Mart and rectified this problem.

I now am the proud owner of a 3 year old, 45 pound, levitating blob.

While this is not my pet, I have been inspired by this: http://www.vtweb.com/backroom/tamagotchi/ to create my own digital pet blog…so I created a new blog!
