Dear Diary,

Hey, Mikey again. Well, Don's been pretty much down since…well you know what happened. Anyways, he told me he still felt bad about what he said. Well, what he said was bad but Raph forgave him, right? So I don't see why he should get so worked up over it. But I guess I'd feel guilty too…

Anyways, since I managed to get Donnie to talk about what's wrong, I found out what's been causing him to have those fits at night. I mean, of course I know it's 'cause of nightmares but he told me what those nightmares were and…man, were they creepy! I'd wake up in the middle of the night too if it were me with those nightmares!

I may not ever say this to Donnie but it hurts me to see him that down. That's why I promised to always be there to listen to his problems! I mean, he always listens to me going on and on about something, I should be nice to him too.

Heh, did you know how persistent I was in asking him what was wrong? It's fun to mess around with Donnie. He doesn't mind it that much. I kept bugging him asking why he was sad and I even pulled out Mike's Puppy Dog Eyes look before he gave in!

You know, they always give in. Unless it has something to do with: Leo and training, Raph and his bike or Don and his experiments…and his coffee. That's when things get serious and I can't try to plead my way out of it. Leo'll give me this entire lecture of some sort. Raph will whack me around and shout stuff at me. Nothing too bad…so far. Donnie will most probably decapitate me and hang my head on the wall. That's when he's really mad. But now he's sad. I have really no idea how to cheer him up except for listening to him and tell him one of my famous jokes. Hey, here's one! Why was the stopwatch dumped by its girlfriend? Because it was a two-timer! I found this one while using Donnie's computer the other day. I don't think he'd like to know that I used his computer and risked getting all his research destroyed. But I'm not that careless.

Hey, even though I know Don's been getting nightmares that are creepy as shell, I don't get why he's been acting real jumpy lately. It's like everything catches him by surprise. I mean, dude! All I wanted to do was tell him that dinner was ready and he practically screamed! Then he started saying something about getting a heart attack one day. He's never thatjumpy! Something's wrong. Something worse than him not getting his coffee. Dude, that guy's a coffee junky! But when he doesn't get his cup of coffee, he'll scream, not get jumpy. Something really wrong. I'm gonna find out what!

But first, I better get started with dinner! It's not going to cook itself and Raph and Leo sure as shell aren't gonna cook it! Last time Raph cooked, the kitchen was a pigsty! And don't get me started on Leo! He set the kitchen on fire! I wonder what it is with those two. All I do is break the toaster. Well…that's not asbad as what they did.

Anyways, sooner or later, I'm going to find out what's going on with Donnie if it's the last thing I do! I hope it isn't, though, or else my life sure is short! Anyways, I'm going off-track again. And I'm… procastrinating...pocrastrinatingprocastringating… pro-cras-ti-nat-ing. Heh, it's a new word Donnie taught me. See, I'm smart.

Talk to ya later, dude!
