I go missing and no one even notices... for two cycles! When Enzo went missing everyone was searching for him.

Dot finally noticed I was gone and came to find me, but now she's mad at me. Again. Yeah, blame me for accidentally locking myself in a closet.

It's a good thing it was a store room in the Diner's basement, or I might not have made it. I went down there to let Enzo out. He wandered off, and then the door shut behind him. Man, those doors are thick! I guess the room doubles as a bomb shelter.

If I never see another can of Energy-Os or bag of chips again, I will die a happy sprite. At least I had the blender and toaster oven I bought for Dot with me. (The first toaster oven I got her wasn't compatible with her kitchen and it... nevermind.)

I guess everything's okay now, though.

I know I don't update this place much. Sorry. It's been hard to find the time, what with being locked in the store room. I'll try to update a little more often, but I really can't promise anything...

But I'm here! Honest!

Whoo, boy!

Quite a second it's been, eh? I was so caught up with stuff that I completely forgot this little journal thingy existed! But I'm back now, and hopefully to stay. The one and only, original Guardian Bob!

So... news. Well, Dot finally forgave me for setting the kitchen on fire, but then I set the bathroom on fire while drying my w... hair. Who knew silicone burnt so easily? And after that, the blender broke down. It wasn't my fault, honest... but try telling Dot that.

On the positive side, I got my car working! ...kind of.

Well, I'm off to try to fix the blender! And after that, I'm going to take Dot out to dinner. Hopefully I won't end up sleeping on the couch this time.

Oh, changed my 'user' icon! I'm quite a handsome little sprite, aren't I?

Greetings, Netizens!

Things have been pretty hectic here in Mainframe with the search for little Enzo! A few cycles ago he went missing. We searched the diner high and low, but couldn't find a trace of the little fella! Dot and I were just sitting down to some energy shakes to console us, when someone from the outside mentioned he had seen the little rascal down at Al's Diner! Imagine, going somewhere ELSE to eat!!! So, Dot took care of that, and he's spending this cycle locked in the basement with a flashlight. The rambunctious little sprite!

Well, I must be off. There's big excitement this nano -- we're getting an update!! Boy, /this/ system sure needs it. . .but I digress. Rumor has it it's a big one too, might change the whole layout of the city! Good thing there's no evil viruses around to mess things up!

. . .why do I have this sudden tingly feeling?

No matter! I'm off to follow my code, to Mend and Defend!

Greetings again, netizens!

Well, I'm feeling better after that whole head injury fiasco, and I've stopped becoming dizzy every time I stand up, so I've decided today is the day I'm going to get back on Dot's good side. (or be deleted trying... heheh) I've bought her a new toaster oven, and I found a recipe for rice krispie icons (I think I'll try the microwave recipe) at aminorglitch.com. (What a strange web site... The Bob Squad?)

Dot's still at the PO, and Enzo isn't anywhere to be found, (I wonder where he want off to...) so I'm alone to work my magic. Wish me luck!

Well... the other night I was trying to sleep in the war room again... I kept hearing funny noises. It was really giving me the jaggies. So, I'm sitting in the dark, and I'm trying to block the whirring and clinking and clanging sounds, so I start singing "Every Rose Has Its Thorns", but then I remembered I didn't really know the words. But Phong yelled at me because he was trying to sleep, and I was disturbing him, so I had to stop. But I wanted out, and it was dark, and I was trying to find the door. I fully tripped over the cot a few times too. So I ended up sleeping the night on the floor in Phong's office with the door barricaded, because I didn't want it to find me. I really think it was after me. The noises were just getting closer and closer. But then Phong got mad at me, because I scratched his desk and he was stuck out of his office for the better part of the morning because I overslept. I tried explaining that I couldn't sleep because there was something in the war room. Then he told me it was just a maintenence bot. I don't really believe him, I swear, it was like it was programmed to get me. So, I tried explaining it to Matrix later, because I was still upset, and Phong basically kicked me out of the PO, and I was still looking for a place to stay, because I didn't want to go crawling right back to Dot's. So then he says to me: "Why didn't you just portal out?" I just felt so stupid and tired and fustrated that I must have just passed out right in his apartment. I think I hit his coffee table on the way down too, cause the next thing I know, I'm awake, in the med section of the PO, seeing double, and feeling very odd. Phong says I still have a concussion. All I know is, I'm feeling very odd right now. And I am not going to stay here another night. I don't care if I do have to sleep in my car...

Why does this always happen to me?

I guess it's a good thing I've brought my laptop -- now I can see things by the monitor!

A few minutes ago I heard a crashing noise near the middle of the room. I tried to ignore it, but it was just too scary to think that someone (or something!) was in here with me! So I took my flashlight and started investigating. It took a while to get here, this place is full of the most ancient looking stuff! Anyways, I finally found a place where a ton of plasma guns were knocked over and lying any which way on the floor, and my flashlight batteries died!! Now I'm going to have to use the computer to get back. . .it's a good thing I have it, or I'd be stuck here all night!

Wait a nano. . .why is the screen slowly fading?

I think that Dot's almost forgiven me, but I can't stand sleeing on that couch anymore! I wake up everymorning with plaid marks on my face, my feet stick over the couch arms, and Enzo wakes me up at the crack of dawn! So, I've decided to sleep at the PO tonight. Phong said it was okay, and they have emergency cots in the War Room.

It's kind of comfy, actually! A lot better than that couch. I had to bring a flash light though, because it's pitch black in the War Room. . .I can't find the lightswitch! It's kind of scary in here. . .there's so much room. . .and it's so dark! I don't think anyone's been in here for cycles, anything could've just wandered in. . .

What was that noise?

Sun, 15 Jul 2001 23:25:03 GMT

You know, I'm starting to get used to the couch. I've yet to decide whether this is a good thing.

I'm really starting to miss Dot's smile.

I didn't think she'd take it this bad, it was only the kitchen. Its not like I burned down the whole spammed place.

I was going to take Kairyuu's advice, but then I realized, Dot is probably just missing the waffle iron. I picked up one today, and left it with a nice note in the kitchen. I can only hope it works. But then again, who doesn't love fresh waffles?

Fri, 13 Jul 2001 04:26:46 GMT

Well, today was rather uneventful. Dot's still making me sleep on the couch. I have to find a way to get back on her good side

I just realized that my URL lists me as a user. Odd.

User, it's later than I thought! Goodnight, LiveJournal-land!

Thu, 12 Jul 2001 00:16:02 GMT

I added several people to my friends list, because I see they like to reboot too.

Well folks, Mike managed to get us kicked out of the hardware store, he was being an annoyance to the other customers. Thanks to my mastery of disguise, a few hours later, a different snap-on wig, and I was able to purchase my paint. Who knew there were so many shades of white?

The kitchen is looking (slightly) better now. My pink shirt is now mostly eggshell white, and I have serious concerns as to whether the paint will ever fully be out of my hair.

Good morning, fellow citizens!

Well, my neck is rather sore from my adventures with the couch last night! It was hard to get to sleep, what with the smell of smoke and all. I guess we won't be having any more waffles for breakfast! Then little Enzo came and jumped on me at 5:30 A.M.!! Apparently that's when the morning cartoons come on.

I wonder when school starts again?

Mike and I are going to the hardware store today to pick up some tools and paint. I hope I have some non-pink clothes left. . .

User, my neck is sore! Maybe I'll stop by the PO, and see if Phong has any extra rooms for me. Maybe he has a waffle iron!

What a night...

Wed, 11 Jul 2001 05:21:33 GMT

Dot's making me sleep on the couch tonight. I think she's mad because I set the kitchen on fire.

Wed, 11 Jul 2001 03:33:47 GMT

Hello again, sprites and binomes! It's Guardian Bob again!

Well, apparently my guardian skills aren't as honed and sure-footed as I thought. I didn't catch one of Enzo's old hats that Dot was trying to wash. Now all my underwear is pink! Ahh, memories from the academy days!

Wait. . .I smell something burning. I hope I didn't leave the toaster oven on again!

I am Guardian 452, but you can call me Bob! Or just 'Bob' for short! Hehehe! I managed to take time of out my busy crime-fighting schedule to create this journal. Now I can share all of my secret codes and crime fighting skills to the trusty people out there in the 'net!

Why, just today I saved Dot from an awful accident. She almost put the colors with the whites! However, thanks to my lightning fast reflexes, I managed to prevent her from putting the clothes in the laundry. Yet another tragedy has been averted, thanks to me, Bob.

If you'll excuse me, I have to go work on my car now. *walks away holding monkey wrench*
