Blogging and Painting and Craziness, oh my!

[severina2001]

A week's worth of rambles.

1. Is anyone doing Blogathon this year?? Unfortunately, the date this year is the same day as the Annual Yard Sale at the nursing home (which I volunteer at) as well as the second Lt. Dan Band show that I'm going to (which is 2.5 hours away.) I was at the Blogathon site yesterday and everyone is making plans, and I

she then asked why I didn't know the difference between Canadian money and REAL money.

This is hilarious. I'm laughing out loud.

[severina2001]

I was proud of myself for remaining calm and (somewhat) professional even though I wanted to strangle her.

omg, that woman! I am vicariously feeling like the Ugly American on her behalf.

I just went and looked your user info and right there big as life it says Location: Canada. I woulda sworn you lived in Wisconsin or Michigan. I truly didn't know you were Canadian. *headdesk*

And now you say you work for a taxi company. I thought you worked at the nursing home. jeez, I'm glad you posted today. Cleared up all kinds of misinformation I had going! lol

She didn't find anything at all wrong with what she'd said, and was a little put-out by my "ExCUSE me?" Heh.

I woulda sworn you lived in Wisconsin or Michigan. I truly didn't know you were Canadian.

Liz (twistinside82) lives in Wisconsin, and we did 2 seasons of Gapfillerpalooza together and were pretty much linked together in everybody's minds, so that's probably why. But nope, I'm in Southern Ontario, about a 45 minute drive away from Toronto. :)

I thought you worked at the nursing home.

Nope, I'm just always there. (At least sometimes it feels like it!) LOL My mom lives there, I attend all the events (entertainment for the residents and such -- in fact, I was there Friday for a family barbecue which I ended up working at as much as visiting with my mom!), my sisters, brother-in-law and I all volunteer and are on the family council, etc.

I was thinking about doing Blogathon, but at the moment it doesn't look like I'm going to. :-/

Have you tried nail polish remover on the paint?

The Urban Dead profiles are brilliant! :D

[severina2001]

You should totally do it. It was so much fun last year. You could do themed music posts. :)

Thanks for the nail polish remover suggestion. I really hate the thought of putting that stuff all over my skin. Ewwwww. I'll probably give it a shot.

Urban Dead is totally addictive. I love it!

1. Aww, that is sad because your blogathon was immensely enjoyable. :)

3. When I can't get things off of my hands, my last resort is usually nail polish remover. I don't know if it'll do the trick, but it's worth a shot. It's removed just about everything I've managed to get myself into.

6. I don't know what Urban Dead is, but the recap made me laugh anyway. :P

[severina2001]

GREAT ICON.

I was totally looking forward to Blogathon. I had good plans and everything. Bummer.

I hate the thought of putting nail polish remover on my skin, but it looks like I'm gonna have to. Ewww.

And OMG Urban Dead is soooo much fun. It takes a while to sort of get the hang of it, because you start out with nothing and you need to find supplies and kill zombies and gain experience points, but seriously, So.Much.Fun.

[raelala]

Hee, thanks!

There's always next year?

I know, it sucks and smells probably as bad as the primer. Try just a little bit and see if it works, that way if it doesn't you're not doubling your dosage of headache inducing fumes.

Haha, that sounds kind of like that random LJ Dungeon game thingie.

smells probably as bad as the primer

My eyes are occasionally watering from the primer smell. Just EWW. And now I am wondering if my latex paint is going to cover on the wall, because it must be an oil-based primer, right?

I reiterate that I should never ever ever do renovations again.

that sounds kind of like that random LJ Dungeon game thingie.

Not really, except for the grid type layout. It's called a Massively Multi-Player Web-Based game, coz you are playing against/with 6875643 different people. So the zombies you kill are actually controlled by someone, and the zombies that try to kill you are controlled by someone, and that's why it's important to find a safe house before your 50 moves runs out, coz while you're unable to access the site your player is still out there and others can come along and kill him.

Um, no, I'm not obsessed, really.

[reeface]

Oh, Sev, I still have warm/fuzzy thoughts about your last Blogathon. *fangirls*

Ted, of all people, is proving to be my best character. He's at Level 2, has acquired an extra skill and I just sent him to a hospital to try to find first aid kits for himself and another player.

OMG JUST LIKE ON THE SHOW. He's finally excelling! Oh, Ted, I knew you had it in you! ♥

And Lindsay just can't get revived no matter what she does.

lakjdflaskj Is it wrong that I'm happy about this? Die, Lindsay, die. :|

[severina2001]

Blogathon was SO FUN. I'm truly bummed out that I can't do it this year. I had PLANS. Plans. Oh yes.

Oh, Ted, I knew you had it in you!

Ted is that little train. I think I can-I think I can-I think I can-I KNOW I CAN.

Die, Lindsay, die. :|

You realize you're just encouraging Zombie-Lindsay to come eat your brains, right?

[reeface]

OMG, plans??! BUT! BUT! :(( You'll just hafta put 'em into action NEXT year! ;D

Ted is that little train. I think I can-I think I can-I think I can-I KNOW I CAN.

*dies* This needs to be iconized kthx.

You realize you're just encouraging Zombie-Lindsay to come eat your brains, right?

OMG NOW ZOMBIE-LINDSAY IS SCARING ME. :((

[severina2001]

Maybe next year it would be a mix of QaF and Vanished fic. Hee.

Canon-Lindsay is pretty fucking scary, so Zombie-Lindsay is like, scary times a thousand. And she's coming... for... you!
