*thinks this Doesn't Look Good*

*Not Good At All*

Hello, Níniel. How are you today?

	From: wailingwoman	Date: 03/21/2007 09:53:48

*turns her head, as if she's surprised to see that someone else is in the room with her*

*earnestly*

I know it is wet and the sun is not sunny, but we can have lots of good fun that is funny!

	From: elrondmd	Date: 03/21/2007 09:57:46

*sighs* Will you excuse me for a moment?

*makes a brief phone call over to the palace, speaking in a near-whisper*

*hangs up* We have lots of good fun here in the hospital from seven until lights-out. Would you like to see?

	From: wailingwoman	Date: 03/21/2007 10:02:13

*looks up at you unsurely*

You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose.

*stays seated*

*walks around his desk and sticks his head out the door to tell Nurse Annabeth you'll be staying awhile longer after all*

*turning back to you* Do you know who you are? Or where you are? Do you know who I am? It's very important that you tell me anything you remember.

*puts her head on her hand and thinks*

*firmly, with conviction* I know that I’m too small to be seen but I’m Mayor of a town that is friendly and clean. Our buildings, to you, would seem terribly small, but to us, who aren’t big, they are wonderfully tall. My town is called Who-ville, for I am a Who, and we Whos are all thankful and grateful to you.

*pauses at the look on your face* *smugly* A person's a person no matter how small.

	From: elrondmd	Date: 03/21/2007 10:20:39

Ah. I see.





*presses a button on his intercom and waits for orderlies and nurses to appear* Archie and Theo and Peter here are going to help get you set up here in the wing where the doctors need keys to get out, okay? *tries to look encouraging* I'll have to think about some new therapy for a while.

	From: wailingwoman	Date: 03/21/2007 10:29:00

*frowns and backs away from the strangers*

Mid pleasures and palaces wherever you roam, be it ever so humble there's no place like home.

*inches towards the door*

	From: elrondmd	Date: 03/21/2007 10:32:09

*calmly* Now, Níniel, there's nothing to be afraid of. Go on...go with the nice men in the white coats. *can't believe he actually just said those words*

*keeps the sedatives on hand just in case*

*really hates having to get out the sedatives*

	From: wailingwoman	Date: 03/21/2007 10:37:05

*quite firmly* NO. *keeps inching away*

Hey diddle diddle, the cat and the fiddle, the cow jumped over the moon. The little dog laughed to see such a sport and

*bursts out the door at full speed*

*laughing* AND THE DISH RAN AWAY WITH THE SPOON.

	From: elrondmd	Date: 03/21/2007 10:43:36

*watches half the staff go tearing after you*

*does not especially want to see the inevitably messy outcome of this little game*

	From: wailingwoman	Date: 03/21/2007 10:46:17

*gets lost in the maze of the hospital*

*barracades herself in an empty room*

*continues laughing as she shouts* LITTLE PIG LITTLE PIG LET ME IN. NOT BY THE HAIR ON MY CHINNY CHIN CHIN.

HUFF AND PUFF, HUFF AND PUFF, YOU'LL NEVER BLOW MY HOUSE DOWN.

	From: elrondmd	Date: 03/21/2007 10:51:39

*follows your progress with concern*

*stations a couple people outside your door, knowing you'll have to get tired or hungry eventually*

	From: wailingwoman	Date: 03/21/2007 10:53:48

*leans against the wall*

:(

Whatever brawls disturb the street, there should be peace at home; where sisters dwell and brothers meet quarrels should never come.

*wants her brother*

	From: elrondmd	Date: 03/21/2007 10:58:55

*wanders down to the third-floor vending machines before tracking down your hiding space*

*pulls up a chair outside your door and stations himself and his cookies there*

*patiently* I only want to help you. We can help you if you'll let us.

*AHAHAHAHA your brother has an interesting definition of 'fine'. so no.*

	From: wailingwoman	Date: 03/21/2007 11:03:02

*will not bow to the pressure of cookies*

*sits quietly for a while*

*tentatively, by way of explaination* Little Bo-Peep has lost her sheep and can't tell where to find them.

	From: elrondmd	Date: 03/21/2007 11:08:16

*with his mouth full of cookie*

Leave them alone and they'll come home, bringing their tails behind them.

	From: wailingwoman	Date: 03/21/2007 11:12:47

*repeats, firmly*

Leave them alone.

*scowls* *mockingly* Doctor Foster went to Gloucester in a shower of rain. He stepped in a puddle right up to his middle and never went there again and was never heard from again.

	From: elrondmd	Date: 03/21/2007 11:17:42

*determinedly* Birds of a feather flock together, and so will pigs and swine. Rats and mice will have their choice, and so will I have mine.

*hopes you know what he's trying to tell you because he sure as heck doesn't*

	From: wailingwoman	Date: 03/21/2007 11:24:58

*thinks about this*

*softly* Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It's not.

*shakes her head* No. I know up on the top you are seeing great sights, but down at the bottom we, too, should have rights.

	From: elrondmd	Date: 03/21/2007 11:39:23

*lightly* March winds and April showers bring forth May flowers.

*gently admonishing* Elsie Marley's grown so fine, she won't get up to feed the swine, but lies in bed 'till eight or nine! Lazy Elsie Marley.

	From: wailingwoman	Date: 03/21/2007 11:42:29

*is fairly certain you have no clue what you're talking about*

*Elsie Marley has nothing to do with this!*

Hmm. Goonight stars, goodnight air, goodnight voices everywhere.

*walks to the other side of the room and examines the air duct*

*is so done with you and your nonsensicalness (for now)*

	From: elrondmd	Date: 03/21/2007 11:47:18

*like he said: LAZY ELSIE MARLEY*

*fashions a makeshift desk out of a pile of boxes in the hallway*

*thinks about calling your brother after all* *doodles*
