More bumper stickers!

It's been a while, but one jumped out at me today, and I just assumed two more would follow, and they did. The one that really caught my eye was:
Those darn accordions! [picture of an accordion]
Pro-Accordion & I vote!This one I suspect many people on my flist own, in green print on a yellow background

Go for it! It sounds like an interesting degree. :)

Have a great weekend. <3

[thrihyrne]

Thanks much! It does, doesn't it? Certainly doesn't hurt that the program is in Wales, though it could be a challenge navigating the system as a foreigner.

You, too! Quick question: how would you feel about beta'ing a short Wraeththu genfic? And a longer Silmfic? ;) You're bearing some of the brunt of this since elfscribe5 is off in the mesas and heartofoshun might be the recipient of my AiA story. I'd be happy to reciprocate, of course!

[jaiden_s]

I know I can do the short wraeththu one...I'm not sure about the longer one. I have committed to beta a huge Supernatural fic that I haven't started yet. IF I can get that one finished, then I can tackle your longer fic.

So, yes to the wraeththu one, and maybe to the other. :)

[thrihyrne]

Great! The other one isn't done yet (need to go write more sex) but I'll send the short Wraeththu genfic. Thanks much!! :)

that's great advice which i second heartily. *hugs*

[thrihyrne]

I was so glad I told these particular two what was going on. It was a Thev love-fest. ;) They are both very wise and the universe really is trying to help me out. (((hugs)))

[cim_halfling]

I concur with the advice and WHAT, did someone create a program just for YOU?? How awesome is that?

Love you, sweetie!!! *HUGS*

They are such wise souls! Opera really can attract the most incredible people. And yeah, that program's pretty fabulous. Media and fan studies... in Cardiff, to boot?! Being a foreigner may or may not work in my favor. I'm going to go to this first appointment on Wednesday and then evaluate about the next couple of months and how involved to get, but still.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BABY!!! :D
I'll be calling you today and singing, too! ;)

Those Darned Accordions is a rock-and-roll accordion band! Probably my favorite accordion group (out of a very, very small field). I heard them do "Rock Lobster" on a radio show, but I don't think there's any video of that (if you search on "Those Darned Accordions" on YouTube, they have videos for 'Baba O'Riley' and 'Dancing Queen', among others. Just so you know). (((Hugs!)))

[thrihyrne]

Oh! :D :blush: Had no idea. I just figured it was one of those Portland bumper stickers, along with the others I've seen that just seem to be a part of the unique culture of this very unique city. ;)

I'll call this weekend! (((hugs back)))

Is it, now? I've been referring to mine (which has roots that go at least a couple of years back but I believe has now reached its culmination) as a crisis of psyche. That in order to be able to truly go forward, I'm going to have to see my inner landscape as a kaleidoscope and force my hand to turn it, even though I've become so used to the pattern, and let the pieces drop into a new one. Only then will I be free to move on. I'm sorry your friend is suffering.

Send me an email (mine is on my profile page) identifying who you are, pseudonym-wise, with your snail mail address (if you're comfortable with that!) and I'd love to mail you one. Probably with a bonus chatty letter, just because I'd really enjoy that. I know where to find such bumper stickers here in PDX and it can also be a thank you gift for your love of my Wraeththu stories and just being a kindred spirit. ♥
