(no subject)
Just now, with my roomie:
"So can I interview you tomorrow about life and death?"
"For what?"
"Oh, for a class."
"...okay, sure?"
Oh, if she'd only realized how amusing that exchange was in the midst of having it as I did. But no, probably not. And now she's gone for the night and I have the room to myself. Maybe I should finally attempt sleeping topless? No, probably not.
The week three prompt at brigits_flame is Arrival. It took a bit of thinking, but I'm pretty sure I've got it all figured out. I'm still really pleased with last week's story. I wish I could submit it to The Rattler in place of an actual column this week. "Here, run this. Don't worry about the kissing at the end. Just run it. Trust me, nobody will get upset."
And then you'll hear about me on CNN when I have managed to anger the members of StMU's Board of Trustees or the older Marianist Brothers for promoting lesbianism or some other such thing. I'd probably just try to refer them to the Romantic Two-Girl Friendship page on TV Tropes (Ruth, if you're reading this at work, DO NOT CLICK THAT LINK. Wait until you're at home to get lost on TV Tropes. XD) and then remind everybody watching that same-sex relationships can be just as healthy and beautiful as heterosexual ones. DUH.
Speaking of, I'm a bit late to the congratulations party (blog-wise), but Amanda and Neil's engagement announcement made me squeal with joy (even though I was a little bit heartbroken, but I'm okay now). They are so freaking cute together. My Twitter feed is going to die from sugar shock one of these days. I hope they continue to have nothing but adorable, quirky joy for the rest of their lives.
Let's see...what else...? OH! *facepalm* I spoke with Sally over Skype today. :3 It's been such a long time since we'd done that (and an even longer time since we'd last talked on the phone), so between that and what was in my Christmas package, it was good to hear her voice and see her. It was like having her visit! XD
I should probably crawl into bed; I have to be well-rested so I can draw more boxes, circles, ovals, and lines tomorrow!
Seriously. I could not be happier about this. You have absolutely no idea.
