Pinky and Bubba’s birthday week continues!

There are sooooo many ‘toons about Pinky and sooooooo many ‘toons about Bubba (Pinky: AND PINKY!!!!!!) that I thought this Friday’s wrap up should be about…guess who!!!! Let the birthday week encore presentations continue! (While you catch your breath for the next exciting episode of Being Endangered is SUCH a Curse!!!)

One day is not enough! We demand a birthday WEEK!

But first, in honor of Mei Xiang’s delicate condition….

Mei Watch! My favorite show!

summer vacation

Mei is certainly ready for summer vacation, but maybe Bubba needs some summer duds!

“If Pinky is grounded, can I have her dessert?”

Mommee Mei puts her foot down.

Complete with a flashback to the Meihem’s party just a few weeks ago…

Remember Pinky’s first birthday?

If you think that maybe elephants never forget, they have nothing on pandas.

Is this any way to treat our Nation’s most adorable icon?

The forces of Meihem are only barely in check.

Bubba’s first feature role!

What goes around, comes around…

March

Whats a protest without pandas?

Stay tuned for more episodes of Being Endangered is SUCH  a Curse, as well as next Fabulous Furry Friday’s tribute to the next US birthday bears, Six and Sebben! And if you’d like to read the whole stories that we’ve shared with you here, you can find most of them in Book 5: Pandapocalypse NOW!, Book 6: We R Endangered, and Book 7: Don’t call mee boo boo!

Panda On!

Uh Oh! Something is going to hit the fan any minute now…

It’s about to happen! The moment of truth! The forces of good and evil are gathering and an epic battle is about to take place, right here in our nation’s capitol!!!! Um…I mean in the halls of the Kingdom of Pandalanta. Please excuse my confusion. It was an honest mistake, right? Something is going to hit the fan any minute now, and everyone is running for cover, lest they get splattered with you know what.

Actually, this could be true for either place, couldn’t it? But let’s continue with our feature presentation…

Being Endangered is SUCH a Curse!!!

hit the fan

Won’t someone save these innocent little pandas???

And hey! Today is Pinky’s actual birthday! What a great way to celebrate, right? Pinky contemplating an evil act! Well, it’s just a story, isn’t it? Isn’t it? Tune in Sunday (What? we have to wait till Sunday to find out what happens next?????) for the next exciting episode of Being Endangered is SUCH a Curse! Bwahahahahaha!

Panda On, as if our lives depend on it!

The Poot Has Hit the Fan!

Oh my! What is going to happen now? This is getting kind of scary and I know I am going to get all kinds of flack for this, because I have put those adorable little munchkins, Six and Sebben in the path of Pinky’s ire, (not to mention her magical wand!!!!) But can you blame me? I mean this is a fairy tale for crying out loud! If there is a wicked witch, there has to be a handsome prince who comes and saves the day, right? Or in the case of Wonder Woman, a really kick-ass goddess warrior who comes right up against evil and attempts (and maybe even succeeds) to vanquish it!  Oh Poot on you Pinky! Your evil plan will NEBBER succeed!

Or will it? Did you really think I would give away the ending already?

She who must be obeyed…

Panda On!

And Just When You Thought it Was Safe …

…to relax, maybe have a bootini, and yes, a cuppycake or two, just when you thought, What could possibly go wrong…you hear the doors start to open. The room seems to swim and go just the teeniest bit dark. And just when you thought it was safe to enjoy a social event without a certain someone getting her little Wonder Woman panties in a twist…

Just when you thought it was safe ….

just when you thought it was safe

Ruh Roh…

Oh yeah. The goldfish. Well, anyone can make a mistake like that, right, Mei?

Panda On!

And Now, the Moment You’ve Been Waiting for…

Okay, not THAT  moment…not the moment when… oh heck. I don’t want to ruin the suspense! what kind of person…um…panda would I be if I told you what was going to happen one or two episodes from now? I mean, don’t you just hate when you are watching a TV series for the first time, and some smarty pants who already binge watched it on Netflix blurts out what’s going to happen in the episode you haven’t watched yet? You were waiting for the exact right moment to watch that episode, and now it’s RUINED!!!!

You might as well be waiting for Godot, but instead you’re going to get…

…baby pandas! You’re getting baby pandas!!!!

Whew! Big sigh of relief. But don’t relax just yet…Bwahahahahaha!

Panda On!

Don’t look now ….

It’s hard not to have that looking over your shoulder, don’t open that door!!!!!! moment like you get when you watch one of those scary movies. The innocent protagonists are having this brief reprieve where they don’t think that evil is going to come crashing down on them, but…before you know it… So don’t look now …just enjoy the party…

We know that Pinky is not going to be content staying home, feeding the fish, and hanging out with the red pandas.

Don’t look now …just DON’T LOOK!!!!

don't look now

We’re not looking….

The tension is just about un-BEAR-able!!!!

Panda On!

You know where this is going, don’t you?

Oh yeah…just look up fairy tales 101, in your guide to children’s literature handbook. Although, of course, Grimm’s fairy tales in their original form would give any one nightmares, not just children.

You know how this story line goes: Big party/royal christening/panda naming day is happening but the evil fairy/witch/panda princess is not invited because of past misdeeds/evil intentions.  Evil fairy/witch/panda princess shows up anyway, chaos ensues, fair princess(es) are saved by gallant prince/knight/guy just walking by that turns out to be a deposed prince.

Yada,Yada, Yada.

Meanwhile, let’s see who has arrived at the naming day party…

You know where this is going, don’t you?

Some one has to feed the fish

Oh my! Pinky is not going to like this at all! Being made to stay home and feed the goldfish! And all because of a silly little mistake she made when she was very young. It is understandable, after the traumatic panda cam shut down in her early cubbyhood! What is an icon to do? Fish for compliments? Revise history so that she comes out the hero?

Maybe she can play Go Fish with the red pandas!

Fish

Don’t pout, Pinky!

I’m sure Pinky will think of something to do while the family is away!

Panda On!

Pinky is not going to like this

So what else is new? Am I really supposed to spend all my days trying to write stories that are all about Pinky all the time? I thought as a writer that I had at least a little bit of free will and discretion about what my stories are about. And really, Pinky, if you think that my stories are making you look bad, you could…oh, I don’t know…maybe behave a little better and not tease your brother so much?

What was I thinking!!!!??? We are talking about PINKY here!!!!

Pinky

Commence propeller spin…now!

By the way, if you haven’t seen it yet, pop over to the Froggwell Blog and check out my post about creating…um…forgeries of my other favorite bear!

Panda On!!
