November, notwithstanding

Thanksgiving? Next week? ALREADY‽ This month is passing way too quickly for my liking.

At least I have good news for the moment: internet access is mine once again! OH, THANK THE LORDS. Of course, now I've grown accustomed to not using it while home, so browsing listlessly has somewhat lost its appeal, but everything's been so crazy that it's hard ( Read more... )

Haha yeah I go a few days with no internet when I'm too busy to be able to get on due to immense school work and trying to go back to it can feel a bit daunting and not really worth it. I'm trying to break down who I follow on Tumblr and such again. UGH TOO MANY PEOPLE. 0

I'm really excited that Bone was finally achieved! I've been wanting to read that for forever. Jeff Smith just has this tone I like. It's like it's for children, but still with dark undertones. Super great. I can't wait to read it myself.

Aw lawdie comic conventions are a good motivator. I've been starting to stalk on Twitter again ever since (like everyone in the comic book industry is on there for WHATEVER reason). HNNGHHH we definitely will have comic book suggestions for you! WE KNOW WHAT YA LIKE. You still need to read that last story in Blacksad.

o-oh... good luck with that whole... Twilight thing. Heal yourself with some hard earned QI.

Oh interrobang, forever shall you be used whenever the chance presents itself!

Haha, I don't think I ever caught up with tumblr from that weekend. Usually I prefer to look at the pages individually, just because a lot of stuff can easily get overlooked on the dash.

BONE... ♥ I love it so much. It's dangerous to know that there's a decent amount of merch for it, including a 20th Anniversay full color boxset. UUUUHHHHM. But yeah, I totally get what you mean! The story could be child-appropriate, but it certainly dances along that threshold ( ... )

BONEBONEBONE I wish I could read it, DAAMN YOU SCHOOOOOOL. At least I'm almost done...!

Oh really, you didn't know you put brandy on it? That's how you're supposed to make fruit cake, which is probably what he was making lmfao we were adoring those posts too. Aaaaa John Finnemore is on there? WELL SHEWT. TIME TO DIG HIM UP. SO MANY COOL PEOPLE ON TWITTER. You should get one too. And I'll add you. Even though neither of us will likely use it except to bother people lol.

Nope! I also didn't realize that's what he was making. HAHA. Oh. #cakedilemmas

Fruitcake has a bit of a negative reputation, doesn't it? The mere mention of it is always accompanied by a groan, it seems. I haven't tried it from scratch, and I didn't know about the brandy part...but rumcake is always a plus in my book.

HAHA YEAH. There's a lot of QI peeps on Twitter, too. But I find myself looking at Fry & Finnemore mostly. I swear Finnemore replies to everyone. (he's also posting sketches in his blog this month too, which is neat)

Oh, so you mean I can use it like my Google+ account? (oooooooh) Haha, I'm very tempted!

Glad you're enjoying Bone so much, I've heard nothing but good things about it! Also congrats on getting your internet back, and I'm happy to hear that it's lost its appeal. I think that we could all do with a little less internet in our lives. HAVE FUN AT BREAKING DAWN, you'll have to tell us all about it...

Yes, and proud of myself for actually finishing it! Will definitely need to acquire my own copy in the future. Smiley Bone is where it's at, yo.

I am also glad for the interweb access, but found myself missing QI and Netflix the most. Ha! Need to work on self-regulation (this is when I envy Jamie's ability to work & watch simultaneously)

Well, I saw it, but can't guarantee the amount of fun that was had! Fortunately, The Muppets has repaired the damage BD had done upon my poor mind.

Jamie doesn't really watch things and do other stuff at the same time, most of the time she doesn't pay attention to whatever is on the other screen, it's just playing in the background. I always have to fill her in on whatever was just said on QI if they say something funny and I laugh at it. :P

OH, I SEE! Well heck, sometimes what they say goes over my head when I'm paying 100% attention! Great for replay value, though!
