I don't want to, but I'm considering turning off anonymous comments on this journal cuz I just get SO. MUCH. SPAM. Especially on high-comment posts like the ol' Castiel party page. It's stupid and annoying. Today I deleted three spam comments from that post ( Read more... )

I find it rather sweet how, when I got up the courage to share with certain of my guy friends that I was abused as a child, they got all huggy on me. And not in a weird way, just like, "Oh, it's Laura! I shall hug her." I do so love hugs, even though I'm terrible at initiating them. It's awfully validating to find such men in the world.

Last week, I recorded a podcast with my good friends Nick and Tim, and when I came back from a night of playing geeky games, I found that it's been posted!

Derailed Trains of Thought Episode 14Their podcast, Derailed Trains of Thought, is all about stories, and they asked me to be a guest to talk about fandom. It was a really fun talk, extremely ( Read more... )

My birthday was fantastic. On Sunday I played D&D with my friends and ate raspberry jello cake. On Monday you guys gave me like a thousand amazing fics and that continued for a bit, and that night Jill and I made new characters for a RPG called Hollow Earth and John gave me a sky lantern and we watched it fly away to the sky and that was awesome ( Read more... )

My Padfoot, aka limegreenjillo, is pretty much the most awesome person ever. When I arrived at her place for RPG tonight she presented me with two mix CDs. One is for Coming Down on a Sunny Day, titled "Far to Go," and the other was a general, "Cheer up, my Moony!" mix called "We All Shine On" because I have been very, very sad lately. She got our mutual friend ( Read more... )

I just had a very awesome afternoon, evening, and night with my geek friends that consisted of Rock Band, bar food plus an amaretto sour, Dairy Queen, Walmart, Iron Man 2, more Rock Band, and part of an MST3K movie. It also involved my buddy Sean dressing up in a kid's Iron Man mask and clip-on Arc Light while walking into and out of the theater, ( Read more... )

I want to hold a commentfic meme. Is this feasible ( Read more... )

Okay, so I've mentioned that I have awesome friends both online and IRL, right? Well, this is my buddy Sean, who is the current DM of my Thursday night game group. (He's also the one who came up with the idea for the ZOMBIES photo shoot we did a couple weeks ago, so you can thank him for all those silly webcam pics I posted. Wouldn't have happened ( Read more... )

It's Big Bang season! So many fandoms are having them, and so many of my flisties are going for it, which is very awesome. I decide to dust this off as a belated Valentine's Day gift for you guys ( Read more... )
