*whirl*
What was that strange noise he wondered?
*whirl*
There it is again!
*whirl*
What ever is that stra ... oh there it is.
[He sees a nerf (TM) boomerang circle around him]
Gee that sure was close *he thought*. I wonder where that came from? Maybe I should follow it. But what if I come across someone from cuddleland? I have been lurking about here for 4 days or so but I just do not know if I am ready to meet anyone let alone share *hugs*.
*He thinks to himself* Being shy is really a curse. But you know, if anything can help me with that, CUDDLELAND can!
Thanks to the magic of my news reader and my cuddleland providers I was able to live a months (1400 messages) worth of experiences *even the magic of cuddleland's own Wizard Huy couldn't do that*. I was able to *smile* and be *happy*, sometimes be *very sad*, and be *enlightened* on where the "cuddle" in cuddleland comes from. I also learned to ignore those nasty flamers *ick* that keep wandering through.
I have been all around the land seeing the forest and finding that seldom traveled path to a clearing with a beautiful rose *she almost saw me*. I went for a dip in the cuddle pond (or was that lake or ocean). I took a quick nap at the big oak at the top of the hill *the snow was a little could but I was weally tired*. I visited Pooky's cuddle page *blush* *oops, that was RL*. I even attended a "How to Hug" class at Cuddle U *I was the one in the back that no one seemed to notice*.
I still haven't found the floating tower or the nerf (TM) ball fight, however! I even was able to meet *well not in person* many wonderful people and hear many *sad* and *wonderful* stories. And that Princess Judy. Somehow I get a picture of Elvira floating through my head when ever I see a message from her. *I better be careful of her and her black licorice*.
Maybe I should just leave cuddleland now while I still can.
*whistling sound*
Not another boomerang *he thought*!
*WHISTLING SOUND*
Oh no, I remember what that sou ... *KERSPLAT!* *ouch*. That snowball hurt *as he rubs his arm*! Well I am to far from the border to leave cuddleland, so, I guess it is time to go meet everybody.
[He wonders up to the top of the hill to see if he can find who threw that snowball]
[After reaching the top of that hill he wipes his forehead]
I am so out of shape!
[He looks but doesn't see anyone] Well I guess it's that time!
[He clears his voice and speaks in as load of voice as he possibly can]
My name is Bryan and I am an Alcoholic *blush* I mean ... a newbie. *All these newbies that have been appearing in the last month remind me of AA meetings you see on TV* I am so embawwassed. *BLUSH*
[He reaches into his new backpack which he got for this quests into cuddleland and pulls out fresh RED licorice and spiced jellybeans]
Here. This is to share with all my new friends. *he says shyly*
I used to have peanut m&m's (TM) but I ... um ... you see ... I was lurking ... I have been here for several days and ... um ... well you see ... *blush* ... I got hungry! *looking down at the ground*
[But then a smile comes to his face]
Oh, I almost forgot something special for pooky, my alt.cuddle idle
[He rummages around in the backpack and pulls out a rubber chicken]
Oh no, no, that will never do!
[Returning to his backpack he replaces the rubber chicken and finally finds ...]
"Pooky snacks" (TM). Sorry, I was so busy trying to catch up on my reading about cuddleland that I had no time to make them myself. Instead I went to the store and, silly me, I asked for "Pooky snacks" (TM).
After being asked to leave that very uncuddly store I went to a much cuddlier store and got some chocolate fudge covered oreo's.
Well no one has arrived yet which makes me *sad*. I guess everyone is busy with RL things (hope that thesis is going well Princess KaCee).
((((((warm long-distance hugs to KaaCee and the tower dweller))))))
Until someone does show up I guess I will just need to practice at what I am the bestest at
*BIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIG BEAR HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGS*
to all newbies, middlebies and oldbies in cuddleland!
[He thinks to himself]
Maybe one of these days I will get over my shyness and build up my self-esteem a little so I can share *cuddles* and *snuggles* and all that other stuff with everyone. Maybe I should just *HUG* myself.

And Here's the reply ...
Bryan cuddled, nuzzled, and scribbled a rilly awesome newbie posting ...
*whirl*
What was that strange noise he wondered?
[He sees a nerf (TM) boomerang circle around him]
[Pooky's still been idly throwing NERF(tm) boomerangs attempting to capture some unsuspecting lurkers. *giggle*smile* ... *wave*to*Andrea*in*Ottawa*]
Gee that sure was close *he thought*. I wonder where that came from?
[Pooky, being blissfully unaware (as he is most of the time) wasn't paying much attention to the boomerangs travels, otherwise he might have noticed Brayn there on the outskirts ...]
Maybe I should follow it. But what if I come across someone from cuddleland?
[Little Gimminy Cricket voice] "You should hug and cuddle them."
I have been lurking about here for 4 days or so but I just do not know if I am ready to meet anyone let alone share *hugs*.
*He thinks to himself* Being shy is really a curse. But you know, if anything can help me with that, CUDDLELAND can!

[ And Bryan tells us all again about what a wonderful place we have here where the "cuddle" in Cuddleland comes from, and of the many wonderful inhabitants: Huy the Wizard, The beautiful Rose, Pooky, Princess Judy, and all the cuddlers trapped in the tower ... ]
*I was able to *smile* and be *happy*, sometimes be *very sad*, and be *enlightened* on where the "cuddle" in cuddleland comes from.
*big*warm*smile* ... and a *HUGE*TEDDY*BEAR*TO*TEDDY*BEAR*HUG*
*I visited Pooky's cuddle page *blush* *oops, that was RL*.
Blush? *smile* ... That's my job. :) *blush* ...
I hope the cuddle pages worked perfectly for you. :)
*And that Princess Judy.
Psst ... *giggle* ... Judy! You're being talked about ... :)
Somehow I get a picture of Elvira floating through my head when ever I see a message from her. *I better be careful of her and her *black licorice*.
Elvira? *giggle* ... Not quite. :) Judy has lovlier hair, a bounteous smile, and is just incredibly sensual when she's all dressed up in her black leather outfit. *wolf*whistle* ... *yowza*yowza*hubba*hubba*giggle*smile* ... Ahem. (Ah how the mind's eye works ;)
But you'd definately be wary of those black licorice whips ... *wink*
[He reaches into his new backpack which he got for this quests into cuddleland and pulls out fresh RED licorice and spiced jellybeans]
Here. This is to share with all my new friends. *he says shyly*
Whoo-hoo!!! *Pooky*munches*on*a*RED*licorice*rope* ... *yummy!* *hugga*hugga*hugga*smile*
Oh, I almost forgot something special for pooky, my alt.cuddle idle
Idle? *giggle* ... Yup. That's me ... groundless, worthless, useless, inactive and lazy. *smile* ... I love spending my time doing nothing ... but cuddling! On what grounds? Just because! For what worth? The richness of a hug! What possible use does it serve? None but to make you happier! Inactive? Not when your cuddling! Lazy? Only when I have marshmallows and a roaring fire in the fireplace. Yep! ;) ... I'm definatly idle.
"Pooky snacks" (TM). Sorry, I was so busy trying to
catch up on my reading about cuddleland that I had no time to
make them myself.
Instead I went to the store and, silly me, I asked for
"Pooky snacks"(TM).
*giggle* ... Pooky Snacks are only here in Cuddleland. :) They're rilly yummy, and they give me the courage and strength to do things. Hmmm ... maybe we could give you a few Pooky Snacks(tm), and then you'd overcome the shyness. :) [Pooky holds out one of his precious supply of Pooky Snacks(tm) for Bryan]
*Maybe one of these days I will get over my shyness and build up my self-esteem a little so I can share *cuddles* and *snuggles* and all that other stuff with everyone. Maybe I should just *HUG* myself.
Pooky smiles, and then gives Bryan the whole bag of Pooky snacks ...
"They always work for me and give me courage." *smile*hugga*hugga*cuddle*
Bryan the tattered Teddy Bear
I'm sure that the cuddlers here can fix a few of those tatters ... but it just goes to show how loved you rilly are! *snuggle*hugga*smile*
With hugs, cuddles, and *NEWBIE*SNUGGLES*,
