the only thing we have to fear is LJ DOWNTIME itself

[thelovemafia]

So! LJ's going to go down for four hours for maintenance (check status.livejournal for updates through the downtime, so lj_maintenance tells us.

ETA: LOL! LJ rigged it so there would be no downtime!

At any rate, the Mangahelpers' post on the new Reborn Chapter (that'd be 216) should still be up, if you need a Reborn fix to last you through the downtime

LJ IS STILL UP 0___0

[thelovemafia]

... oh god, you know, your thoughts on Twitter are pretty much my thoughts on Twitter.

I have yet to read a Twitter update post that I found GENUINELY FASCINATING AND INFORMATIVE. At least you can say more for MSN convo logs.

UNTIL YOURS, OF COURSE. SAD TO SAY IF YOU WROTE GOKUDERA AND TSUNA ON TWITTER I WOULD GO AND MAKE AN ACCOUNT TO FOLLOW YOU.

Tsuna was jogging up to him with that radiant yet unconscious smile that always made Gokudera's stomach do backflips, and he couldn't help but relax.

YOU MAKE ME SO HAPPY, ADI. ♥

I can't remember if I had freezing rain, although that could be... do you mean hail?

I KNOW. D8 If Christmas decorations come in September, they lose their special Christmas-ness! It feels like... RETAILERS TRYING TO MAKE AS MUCH MONEY AS POSSIBLE.

Also it is depressing. "The end of the YEAR SO SOON?!" Making one think of the end of the year in SEPTEMBER is just CRUEL AND WRONG.

Although. Christmas merchandise goes up in early October in London. ALTHOUGH THE DECORATIONS ONLY COME IN LATE NOVEMBER AND DECEMBER WHAT IS UP WITH THAT.

I win~! Oh well if I can make you happy with one random off-the-cuff sentence have another one: Gokudera was carrying a heavy load of laundry when Tsuna spotted him. A second later Gokudera spotted Tsuna, and all the laundry fell on the floor. "Tenth!"

"Gokudera, it's alright, you don't have to make such a fuss-" Tsuna protested, as he ran automatically to help pick the clothes up. "What's all this?"

Gokudera looked embarassed. "Uh, I'm going to the laundromat. It's nothing for the Tenth to worry about, but my stuff kind of got all messed up in the last fight~"

"Then you have to do them at my house!" Tsuna said firmly, grabbing half the load and walking home. "It's bad enough that you get hurt because of me! You shouldn't have to pay for things like that on top of it!"

Gokudera looked ready to protest, but Tsuna didn't give him the time to do it. He watched after Tsuna's back for a few quiet seconds, then a small smile sread over his face, and he hurried to walk at Tsuna's side.

There. I can only write fic when I'm in the WHO CARES IF IT'S GOOD JUST WRITE IT frame of mind. Hope you like anyway =_= no editing no buildup just SPEEDTYPING

No, freezing rain is water that freezes when it hits the ground. A few years ago there was actually a pretty major catastrophe because so much of it stuck to the power lines that they got too heavy, broke, and put half the province in the cold and dark in the middle of winter.

There's probably a decency bylaw outlawing it. It's a good idea - by December 25th everyone is already heartily sick of the Christmas songs, even us heathens who don't celebrate it.

I AM SO SORRY T____________T

I ACTUALLY SPENT AGES FLICKING BY YOUR COMMENT, NOT REALISING IT WAS MADE BY YOU AND NOT ACTUALLY BY ME (proof that the icon REALLY eats brains! XD)

Of course you win, dearheart. ♥ ALWAYS!

Oh well if I can make you happy with one random off-the-cuff sentence
You also make me happy just by being you. ♥ We agree on a lot of things that are very important to me: i.e. Turner prizes and crap art, early Christmas decorations, and Luke.

It's bad enough that you get hurt because of me! You shouldn't have to pay for things like that on top of it!"
TSUNA SO CUUUUTE ♥ you! you make me want to go and properly write you fic. ALTHOUGH I WOULD FEEL ASHAMED SAYING "HERE ADI THE TWILIGHT!REBORN FIC FOR YOU" XDDDD

THAT - THAT'S CRAZY! The place where you live is a... WHAT LAWS OF PHYSICS ARE FOLLOWED THERE?

I know they are the natural ones, but it seems like they are followed to the EXTREME.

Were you affected by the massive winter outage? :((( It sounds awful.

THERE SHOULD BE A DECENCY BYLAW OUTLAWING IT

don't worry :)

Well, I'm happy if you enjoyed it :)

The same kind of physics that allows teleporting particles. XD It's the only time I recall a problem of that caliber, though I still do get nervous when freezing rain comes down. If nothing else, it's scary to walk or drive on...

It was pretty nasty, but my family got off lightly (after a day or two without heat we stayed at the house of someone my father knows.) There was a whole region of people who were without power for three weeks, which really isn't funny in Quebec.

I know right! And in fact I actually saw some Christmas lights this evening. Christmas is supposed to be twelve days, not two whole months! OTL
