As many of you know, a memorial service was recently held for Little Box who perished in the middle of her great round-the-world voyage.  It was a sad moment for all her soulcast fans, and we will all miss her dearly, but amid all the tears and mourning, something happened to give a silver lining to this grey cloud that has been hanging over our mournful soulcast heads. 

Daily went down to her basement to do some cleaning, and there, she found, hidden, and woefully undernourished in a corner...  Little Box's daughter!  Yes, folks, that's right!  If you were wondering what really happened between LB and that ole Lobstah', they did.... and it had consequences.  I don't know why LB didn't tell anyone about it.  Probably too embarrassed over the negative publicity that she got from the Lobstah incident.

Well, Daily has been taking good care of LB Jr. and gotten her fattened up, and she says that she's ready to fill her mother's footsteps and wants to take up her mother's round-the-world voyage where she left off.  Since mom was next on the list, Daily will soon be sending LB Jr. off to mom, after filling her with something special, of course.

For those of you who came in a bit late on this story, you can read all about the original exploits of the Little Box here.  Rumor has it that LB Jr. is going to leave the US soon and continue westward on her trip as  her mother did before her.

Because we want to be absolutely sure that LB Jr. stays safe on her trip and gets to complete at least one whirl around the earth before going to meet her mother in the great unknown, we would like to restate the "rules" for everyone who would like to participate in the saga of LB.  Here they are from the original post:

1)  The holder of the Little Box (currently Daily) would find a small gift that will fit inside LB Jr.  The gift can be something that is representative of the place where the holder is living, the place where the holder is from, or of the holder him or herself.  Preferably, it should be something lightweight to keep postage costs reasonable.

2)  The holder would post an invitation, both on the original Little Box Post and on their own blog (linking the two) to a soulcaster that they would like to send their gift to.

3)  If the chosen recipient agrees, the two would make arrangements to secretly share contact information.

4)  By agreeing to be a recipient of “The Little Box,” you are agreeing that you will:

          a) Post a photo of the Little Box (without showing the mailing addresses or real names) and its contents both on the original post  and on your own blog, linking the two.  This way, people can follow the voyage of the Little Box here as if reading a novel, and new interest can be generated by the new posts, so that new soulcasters will become aware of its existence, too.

          b)  Send the Little Box on its way **WITHIN TWO WEEKS** by following steps 1-3 above.

The two week stipulation is new for LB Jr., because we don't want her to get held up like her mother was.  Also, please note, that when Little Box was making her rounds, people didn't always remember to post their photos and invitations on the original post, and that would make it hard for people who want to get up to speed by reading the entire history in one place.  Also, please don't take your photos down off of flickr, because they will disappear here as well.  So, if you agree to host LB Jr. on her journey, please agree to follow the rules of the game, and please follow through.  Everyone at soulcast is counting on you!

Well, that's it.  Everything else is up to Daily and mom, and anyone else who wants to get in on the act.  Personally, I'd like to see LB Jr. go around the world a bunch of times. 

Godspeed, LB Jr!

    Sure will be following this and hope Little Box jr will have a save journey around the world.  I wish her all my best. 
  • kruuyai said on Aug 21, 2007....
    skald:  Thank you, dear.  Coming from you, an old friend of her mother's, I know that your well wishes mean a lot to LB Jr.  She sends you her love.  :)
  • uniquely-ironic said on Aug 21, 2007....
    I'm glad there was someone to carry on Little Box's mission.  God speed to Little Box Jr.
  • kruuyai said on Aug 21, 2007....
    u-i:  I whispered your message to LB Jr., and she giggled shyly and said thanks and that she hopes to meet you one day.
  • dailyachesandpains said on Aug 21, 2007....
    YAY!  I'm so glad the news has been released!
    I posted her "official" announcement with her measurements after she finally became healthy.
     
    I'm so excited!

    daily:  oooh!  Sounds risque.   I'm heading over there to check it out!  :)
  • polarheart said on Aug 21, 2007....
    I am soooo happy ::::::) I'm crying from happiness!
     
    I wanted to make a little suggestion about LB jnr, wanted to say something the first time round, but forgot, so I'm hoping you, Kruu, and Daily will consider this:
     
    I was thinking you should place a piece of card in the box on which each recipient can write where she has been eg "LB visited Polarheart".  When LB Jnr is sent on the card should be "signed" and placed back inside.  JUST A THOUGHT :-)
  • kruuyai said on Aug 21, 2007....
    polar:  That's a great idea.  I wish we would have thought of it with LB.  What do you say, Ms. Daily?   Can we start a guestbook?  Or would it be called a hostbook?
  • uniquely-ironic said on Aug 21, 2007....
    tell LB Jr. she's welcome to visit any time
  • kruuyai said on Aug 21, 2007....
    u-i: I will, I will.  :)
  • silverwhisper said on Aug 21, 2007....
    ah, well done, kruu!

  • kruuyai said on Aug 21, 2007....
    ed: I can't take any of the credit.  It was all Daily's doing.  (and of course, LB and Lobstah)  ;-)
  • skald said on Aug 21, 2007....
    What a great idea Polar has. Hope it will be done. 
  • kruuyai said on Aug 21, 2007....
    skald:  me too :)
  • the_infernal_optimist said on Aug 21, 2007....
    Extending a bit of Southern hospitality to LB Jr. - standing invitation. :) I'm so glad she's around!

    That's a neat idea about the card.

    Polar, Kruu:  I thought that too with her Mamma.  I will start a guest book.  Great job Polarkins!
     
    Mom:  I will take your address after I go shopping.  I guess my 2 weeks will start today?  God, you're going to be tough to shop for after that surgery.  If you know me, it will not take two weeks to send her out. 
     
    Kruu: Sorry to bug you again, but do you have the pictures I sent you of her?  I thought I sent them to you, now I can't find them on my pc and my camera battery is literally DEAD, as in I need a new one.
     
    Daily
  • dailyachesandpains said on Aug 21, 2007....
    Kruu:  Forget it, I found the pictures and I was using the wrong battery that looks exactly the same as the one for the other camera!
     
  • gingersoul said on Aug 21, 2007....

    KruuKruu and Daily......naturally Little Box couldn't be left alone in the hands of some blogger who didnt care of her.....btw, it was @ MissUndestood, correct?

    Ok, girl.....in her way to the South i will be more than happy to show LB Jr the Big D and some cowboys...... *wink*

    I have only to alert that i have a super crappy camera and my pics are not going to be super fine.

    Beside that....i am in.

    And the card is a neat idea......

    Daily....so.... the pictures?? 

  • Actorguy said on Aug 21, 2007....
    Little Box has never been to Canada, and my daughter and I would love to host her. Do we sign up her to be included on the list?  Count us in please, please, please!!!
  • mom said on Aug 21, 2007....
    I think we need a list of people and locations to keep this from getting confusing.
  • dailyachesandpains said on Aug 21, 2007....
    Ginger:  I put up the pictures, the link is there!  It's in my latest post. 
     
    Actorguy:  I think I want her out of the USA more than anyone, lol! 
     
    Mom:  Great idea!  I did have a LB sign up sheet for the last one.  Perhaps people should state when they'll be available and unavailable in taking her in? ;D  It took me a while to nurse this little one back to life...I would hate to see her stop and stuck somewhere. 
     
    I think we should do a red peg tracking map for LB that we can all add to when she gets there.  I'll have to look around a little more for one that's suitable.
     
    Daily
  • gingersoul said on Aug 21, 2007....

    Daily........yes, i went there...great pictures, girl  - oops - godmother!

    Mom got a good idea. So if we have close locations Lil Box can travel without having the candidates spend too much in mail.

     

  • MissMimi said on Aug 21, 2007....
    I had Little Box Sr.  But if Jr wants to visit, I would love it! 
  • boyzmom said on Aug 22, 2007....
    For now, I just want to be a bystander in this story, maybe someday she could visit me though!
  • destinydiva said on Aug 22, 2007....
    boyzmom, your back :-) xxxx
  • dailyachesandpains said on Aug 23, 2007....

    She's going now.  Little Box Junior is on her way to Mom

    Kruu:  I'm confused, or I forget, where I'm supposed to go to post that she's left me so I just posted a post.
