Ooh, I'm so glad your visit with Alan went well! And yay for seeing friends you haven't seen in ages!

*sends hugs* Miss you, dearling! *holds up sign saying "Come Visit!"*

\o/ \o/ :-P

It was pretty awesome. Now the trick is to not fall into the same pattern again. *must not be lazy* ... Well, okay, at least not ALL the time! Hee!

Miss you too! I know, I know. *hangs head* I have to go to Motor Vehicle within the next month to renew my registration. Well, I don't HAVE to go - I can do it online - but I'm GOING to go in person so I can get the new enhanced license and then I can travel over the border - finally! (Besides, I LOATHE my driver's license picture like burning! Bleh!)

FMA!! *\o/* djin7 June 23 2010, 06:16:55 UTC

Thank god, it's about time. :D!

Re: FMA!! *\o/* midnitemaraud_r June 23 2010, 16:05:05 UTC

I know, right? I still remember betaing that FMA fic for you years and years ago! Have you seen Brotherhood ( ... )

Re: FMA!! *\o/* djin7 June 24 2010, 05:01:47 UTC

I adored the Brotherhood, too - it's the manga storyline. The original anime was a little cracky, whacky, angsty and a lot slashy. Hence my lurve of Roy/Ed. I can rec some authors and a few sites.

ravurian officially ships You/Alan. Your love strictly platonic friendship conquers time itself! ♥ you. I'm so glad you're reconnecting with all these people who matter to you. Being somewhat hermit-like myself, I completely understand the sheer joy in reconnection, even where it had seemed an impossibly daunting task of dubious merit before you, y'know, reconnected.

Hee! Well, we DID date/have an unusual kind of relationship back then! Wanna see a pic from '85? It only shows his profile (and my face). Stop laughing at my '80s hair! :-PIt was so easy to tune out - I was miserable, felt absolutely awful, and I was depressed because my entire lifestyle had drastically and abruptly changed. I used to play volleyball 4 - 5 nights/days a week; evening leagues in NYC and tournaments or just casual pick up games on the weekends. Indoor, beach, grass court; co-ed and women's. I was rarely home, always running places. In winter, when I wasn't playing a tournament on the weekends, I was skiing 'cause we rented houses up in Vermont. And then all of that stopped cold, and I became totally sedentary. Fandom is actually what kept me sane and from falling into the abyss of despair, but then I gained a bunch of weight, the Crohn's made it somewhat embarrassing (and nearly impossible) to go out anywhere. After a couple of years, I was like, "how do I just call people up out of the blue?" And so I kept making ( ... )

Firstly, I owe you an email. I suck.

Secondly, haven't watched Who yet, although I have downloaded the Pandorica to watch today. Was it any good? Am I going to be violently frustrated until Saturday for Part II? (I was thinking of saving it up to watch in one go XD)

I'm glad you had an awesome time with your friends! ♥

midnitemaraud_r June 23 2010, 16:28:55 UTC

I'm terrible with emails. I still have over 1000 emails in my inbox. I'm always - oh, I'll reply later... *snort* So don't even worry about that!

Oh! Pandorica is SO GOOD! OMG!! But yes, you'll be all "OMGWTFBBQ HOW COULD YOU END IT THERE?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!" so maybe it's better to wait until Saturday if you won't be able to stand the suspense! LOL

I'm glad, too! Friends are awesome! ♥

caeseria June 23 2010, 17:30:44 UTC

Bahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh perhaps I'll have to watch it now ;) I haven't watched The Lodger either, I sorta lost interest after the crap first half of the lizard one LOL So, you think Who has gotten better with Pandorica then? *hopes*

midnitemaraud_r June 23 2010, 17:38:59 UTC

Oh, the lizard 2-parter wasn't that great. It had its moments of ♥, but it was my least favorite of the stories all season. Vincent and the Doctor was amazing, (unless you hate Van Gogh of course! *g*) and the Lodger was a really fun romp. Doctor inna shower!! Inna towel! Definitely watch those two before Pandorica!

I need to upload new Who icons!
