kiss me with adventure, 'til I forget my name

I might've already shared this song a few months ago but I don't care, I've rediscovered it and it's awesome.

I read a really interesting piece today on Buzzfeed about a mother with what is very likely munchausen by proxy. Anyone who's been around LJ for more than a handful of years has likely come across a case of someone either they or a friend ( Read more... )

Omg that BuzzFeed article is going to stay with me for a long time! The poor child! How could a mother do that to her own daughter! *sobs*

Good luck with the job search!

Munchausen doesn't seem to phase me any longer, since being on the internet and hearing it happen so often in areas of fandom. I find it fascinating more than anything so I was really interested to read this story, although I feel like there's so much about the daughter and the behind-the-closed-door stuff that went on between her and the mom since she knew how to navigate around the internet and how to sneak out of the house and such. Just a total mystery that makes me wonder if the daughter is playing people to this day.

Happy belated birthday, btw!

I'd forgotten what Munchausen syndrome was, and really didn't expect how dark the story turned out to be. Parents shape their kids' world, and being fed lies from childhood...I just have infinite sympathy for the daughter.

Thank you for the birthday wishes! I had a relaxing day with some free time to spend online! :)

Pidgeys and Rattatas need to gtfo. There's way too many of them around my house, that and Weedles too. I know catching and evolving them adds to XP and helps level up but I am so sick of them.

Best of luck with the job search! I hope you hear back from one of the places you applied to soon.

I only just caught a weedle last weekend downtown, I don't think I've seen one where I usually frequent at all. I saw that a Pikachu was around the office last week but he never materialized. FINGERS CROSSED!
