My head is spinning somewhat with Bubblegum's news. Mostly I worry about her, as I'm sure she's guessed. I know what it's like to feel you need to be the strong one because others are cracking up. Been there, done that. Bad idea in the long run, but in the short term I guess...besides it's not my place to say anything. In some ways it isn't a shock ( Read more... )

This is ridiculous. The IM bunch have turned sour. I'm not clear what exactly is the cause...there's something about taking criticism on your writing (or rather *not* being able to take it, and finding it demoralising) and some actions which have been taken as rude and against nettiquette ( Read more... )

Still haven't found a better chat room than sci fi and fantasy tv on yahoo. And I'm still looking for a more active btvs/angel posting board than slay online...I've ended up at dusk till dawn's but I don't really like it.

I already had hoarded F and S's pressies (sunflower related!) of sunflower shower gel and sunflower face mit, bracelet, sunflower box, sunflower bag and sunflower notebook.

Was listening to that this morning and it made me think of Red. I don't want to list what has gone wrong with her... I hate to even think it. You can read it here if you must ( Read more... )

it's raining, or was...I did some more work on the MA statement. I hate them soooooooooo much. Been to the library mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm new books. But other than that, not much. I've got a bit obsessed with group IM chats with friends of a friend made in yahoo scifi chat. That's come straight after an obsession with trillian skins and umm something ( Read more... )

...and I mean really cut my hair. There was masses of it and I just wanted it gone...I think. Or at least I liked the idea of it. The hairdresser took a few liberties - kept it longer in the back than I asked, cut it shorter in the front than I'd asked for but it's great. I just have to get used to my hair being this short cos I haven't had it this ( Read more... )
