Greetings from the Arctic Circle... I Mean, Perth

[pdragon76]

I'm sitting on the floor cross-legged in front of my heater with my laptop perched on my knees.  I CANNOT GET WARM.  I don't know if this is a sign of some impending doomsday illness that is about to strike me on Day Two of my Brutal Self-Defense Course (which would be awesome) or if The Academy really is Hell and it's finally frozen over.  Either

A little sad, I get. But you should feel accomplished. Damn. You cuffed and settled the Jolly Green Giant!

*high fives you but warily*

You amaze me gf.

I seriously had my doubts about the feasibility of that exercise. But DM was right. You do it as they teach you, you can bring down a mountain. *\o/*

I guess I could do with applying that mentality to other areas of my life right now, too. :)

Sorry for the sad part and the absent person and all that. *huggles*

But i'm proud of you too. For the record.

[pdragon76]

Thank you, babe! I'm sorry you've been having trouble with the arthritis. :( I hope you're all ultra-shiny again soon.

*smish*

[ultraviolet9a]

I got the arthritis back under control. I think. *buffs nails* Also, you are awesome. Just cuz. *hugs*

I'm sorry honey...I'm sorry that person couldn't be there to be as proud and awed and freaking out over your awesome as we are. I don't know what the exact circumstances are with that, but know that we can see what he can't - and that is truly his loss.

*Sends buckets of love to you*

I know we may not be the people you want or need to love you or be proud of you, but if it helps any - we are here to do just that!

*HUGS*

I didn't mean that to sound like I don't appreciate the friends I have. OMG, I so do. I have so many friends I don't deserve. Seriously.

I am utterly thankful for the people in my life. LJ peeps especially. *hugs y'all*

[a_phoenixdragon]

Oh no honey - I didn't mean to imply that at all! *Strangles self* And you do so deserve your friends - we just wish sometimes we could be BETTER friends for you. Like I seriously wish I could just hop a plane and come hug the stuffing outta ya (cause you seem to need it and I've always wanted to give you a Real Hug.) I know - I'm silly, lol! But you deserve all the best and more - and we know you love us! I just wish you loved yourself a little better - seriously - stop and read your own LJ, realize the awesome you are made of!

We know, sweetie...I know my foot was totally in my mouth with that last comment, but I just wanted to convey how much you mean to so many people! We are proud of you - we love you! I just wish that certain person realized what he is missing out on!

*Holds you close*

[ficwriter1966]

You made me think of Dean going up against Tiny. *g* Dragons FTW!

I'm very sad about your sadness, honey.

*hugs*

[pdragon76]

I thought it was going to be just like that. Yes. But it wasn't so bad.

Today I boxed with an ex-SAS dude! He was awesome. OMG, he gave me so many pointers. He was incredible.

Things were a lot more physical this afternoon than yesterday, so not much room for sadness come home time. Apart from the sadness in my hamstrings and sternocleidomastoids. Hooooooly dooooooly.

*winces*

[pdragon76]

Not so sad today. A little wistful maybe. That's prolly gonna last a while, I think.

My skillz is mad, yes? Heeee! But I am very sore after today. Oh Lordy, am I sore.

*weeps*
