Apparently not.<br /><br />Jaime, I treated myself, too, also after many years without. Man, milkshakes are tasty.<br /><br />Lucy, Wonder Woman, I dig it!<br /><br />Kellie, my favorite would be the parallel dimension. Or something like them being faerie children.<br /><br />Erick, I totally googled that when you left this comment, and they are definitely freaky. Thank you for passing that along!<br /><br />Cynthia, I do, too! It hasn't really happened yet, but I'm sure it will. Sometime.<br /><br />Jenelle, we're all busy, man!<br /><br />Melissa, thanks!<br /><br />Wicked, I did get the milkshake!<br /><br />Jagoda, thank you!<br /><br />Jak, yes on the King Kong quote!

I need to find a better way to prepare for April in the future, though.<br /><br />TM, I definitely don't like being bored! I'm also terrible at allowing that to even be a possibility, lol. Always filling my time.<br /><br />Nancy, I would have loved some extra energy!<br /><br />Andrew, remind me of the Sherlock Holmes method.

A disease or poisoning/malnutrition seems likely.<br /><br />Madeline, if you can believe it, I had my first milkshake in years just a day or two after I posted this. It was GOOD.<br /><br />Julie, I'm glad I'm not the only one that looked like that.<br /><br />Bryan & Brandon, indeed! I do like being busy, but when I reach the point where I'm not sure how to do it all, I've gone too far! You guys are definitely super busy.<br /><br />Maple, I like to believe they were from another dimension, even if I rationally believe something completely different.<br /><br />Deb, ah, of course!

When do you even sleep!?<br /><br />Anyways, I think the children might have lived in some form of underground cave. Some people are actually burned by light (though its an incredibly rare condition) and if that's the case, that could explain why they never saw the sun. They stayed inside unless they had to, which could make it hard for them to get what they needed to survive.Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07507642753163503531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7646134662936278718.post-61293133565849771032013-04-11T03:20:39.829-06:002013-04-11T03:20:39.829-06:00I'm going to go to bed and dream about how gre...I'm going to go to bed and dream about how green-skinned children tie into green-boooded half-Vulcans.

That can't happen... I have to fill my mind with tales of ghosts, mysterious rocks, and little unheard of green children.<br /><br />This was another new tale for me. I'd love to think they were from some underground "world" but the most logical may be the last theory. I'd say it was odd no one attempted to "find" or "claim" the children, but I guess if they were malnourished... eh... yeah.<br /><br />Jak at <a href="http://crytonchronicles.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">The Cryton Chronicles</a> & <a href="http://dreamsintheshadeofink.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Dreams in the Shade of Ink</a>Jakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05069266783997777691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7646134662936278718.post-80147498031097552532013-04-09T17:26:47.992-06:002013-04-09T17:26:47.992-06:00And I thought I was busy.
