The Waiting Room People

january and Tass
Guest Writers

You know how it feels. Having to wait in the blue room all the time. The neon blue room. But I'm sure you haven't noticed the two little people down in the corner. Those two are us, january and Tass. The waiting room has become our home. Yep, sitting there all day long, through and through. It's like we're attached there with super glue.

You know it's sad, really. We have to feast on that bird... not much of a feast, as everyone else waits 2 minutes, 3 minutes, and we sit there and try to enter the Whyville place. We seem to sit there for months on end.. but it seems like years. And when we had the Why-Pox, we had no Kleenex. Or blankets. Or Tylenol for our headaches. It was horrible. BUT we seem to have made it... somehow.

We know that the waiting room will always be there to keep us out. Yes, yes. And seem to let everyone else in. *sniffle. It's so sad. Oh! And on those blue moon days when we get in, when a kind stranger sneaks us in, it is a miracle... but then again, maybe not because we are surrounded by strangers. *sigh* It's very difficult...

We are socialites, but... *sigh* we need our people. Our eyes have grown white from the constant neon-ness... we are now blind in sunlight. Our necks are bent for eternity. We do not sleep, nor do we spend time with our families. We really would like to, but as you know we can't get in and no one notices us.

If only more people would see us! Then maybe... just maybe we wouldn't only get in on a blue moon! We would be able to chat... like normal Whyvillians! What joy! To be able to chat again! Our families could see that we are alive! (Not necessarily well, but alive.)

We hope that if you see us you will sneak us in or donate to our tiny hat. *Sigh* Living in the waiting room as we do is no fun. We aren't sure how we got here but we are. So remember, be good to your why parents/gf/bf/friends/family/enemies, 'cause you never know... We might be sharing our waiting room house with you!
