Friday evening, after work, Brian and I were playing Rock Band, and in the middle of a set - we'd just finished one song without any problems and were starting another - his guitar won't deploy star power anymore. Just like that. Nothing happened between the previous song and the song it quit on (I had it around my neck the whole time, never ( Read more... )

I've had it. Transparency is clearly unattainable. People will force a cover on you. I'm tired of trying to tell people "I say what I mean and I mean what I say" and still being told "You meant this, you judged that person, you implied this or that." I try not to imply things in regular conversation unless I'm making some sort of joke where the ( Read more... )

Yesterday was Brian's mother's birthday. We had a little conflict of schedule (we had to meet with a friend to pick something up and he had a change of plans and was headed out to Orange Park so we had to catch him at a certain time) that meant we had to get ready quickly, and then it was racing off to catch him before he left. Then we went by the ( Read more... )

Manna, I only read your response, and then I only skimmed it (because it did get a little repetitive)... and I'm sorry that your teeth are so bad, and similarly sorry that the truth sucks so much to hear. You don't get to drink soda your whole life, refuse to go to the dentist, and then complain when you finally DO go and a) your teeth are bad, and ( Read more... )

It's going to be dropping into the 20's again tonight, and even though we only have two little space heaters to heat the house, all I can think about is this beautiful fluffy bob-tail orange tabby cat that's come by the trailer the last couple of days. It's personable and doesn't look matted at all... but it has scabs and scratches and its white ( Read more... )

I know that there are a lot of desperate situations one can get into in life; I'm not naïve, and I'm surprisingly good at empathizing when I want to (which, granted, I keep myself from doing on many occasions, but this isn't one of them). I've heard enough horror stories to keep my mind occupied with paranoia and fright for the next century (or at ( Read more... )

HAHAHAHA.

Oh my GOD that was a good laugh.

I had NO idea the Umbrella Corp 'your avatar looks like a swastika' PM came from a clearly (at least momentarily) out-of-her-mind Catfights member. Priceless!

I'm going to be rolling for a few days now, I think. XD

A big "fuck you" to random.org and a certain adoptable team. I never realized one could stalk an adoptable so closely for several months and still remain so empty-handed. What the fuck am I supposed to do with four or five item vouchers and a pet when I can't even win one of the fucking adoptable? I realize I don't have the most exciting or chock- ( Read more... )

Of course it needs posting.

First, foremost, and possibly most unexpectedly... I received an amazing set of ornaments from Andromeda (andoromedaza). I totally wasn't expecting a gift from her at all, so when the boxes showed up I had to do everything in my power to keep from opening them before Christmas. The day rolled around and out of the presents come a ( Read more... )

Merry Christmas to all of my friends who celebrate; hope you got everything you wanted :)
