  1. It makes me happy to hear all the good news you guys are sharing. I have some good news of my own as well! My parents and I just spent the last two days exploring Everglades National Park, and today we saw (among other things) oodles of alligators, one crocodile, and two ADORABLY friendly manatees. The manatees were hanging around near a boat dock and ppl would dip their hands in the water, and the manatees came right up to get head rubs.
  2. IRL I like to spout off random bits of trivia about animals, books, movies, languages, or anything else that the current conversation reminds me of. Classmates in my college courses have expressed surprise at how many things I remember from having learned them in high school. I consider myself mostly an introvert in that I see no problem with staying home on a Friday night to read a book or watch Netflix alone. But if you put me in a crowd of geeks at Salt Lake Comic Con or a line for a book signing or a gaggle of birdwatchers in the woods, I like never shut up. When it comes to things I'm really enthusiastic about, I could talk for hours about them.
  3. Don't have one because I've never watched it. What's your favorite fictional magic user? (From Brandon's books or any book/movie with magic)
  4. I was pretty amused by the Sliding Scale of Vampire Friendliness. What's your favorite fruit?
  5. @AngelEy3 Yeah, definitely re-read Stormlight if you just finished Warbreaker for the first time. @LeftVash I've read A Darker Shade of Magic and the 2nd book in that series and thoroughly enjoyed them both. Just waiting on the last book in the trilogy now...
  6. When you pass a street named Chiquita and do a double take because you read it the first time as Chouta.
  7. I'm in southern Florida for the next three days! My parents and I are being touristy in the Everglades. Tomorrow we're gonna try to find some burrowing owls, and I am BEYOND excited.
  8. @Deliiiiiightful I believe adding milk would make it creamier/fluffier. Also, did you melt the cheese/butter before adding? They might blend better if melted first.
  9. Hmm. Either Lego Marvel Superheroes or Rock Band 2. What's your favorite nonalcoholic beverage?
  10. @Slowswift Ok, so you don't like Bing Crosby's "White Christmas," but the only other song I can think of that fits that description is "Blue Christmas." What do you have against Elvis?
  11. Can confirm the deliciousness of potatoes and cheese. Dunno what else you could add to increase the protein content, though. (I like bacon, but that is both meat and not kosher, so doesn't help with your decision.)
  12. The only song I've listened to by Panic! at the Disco is "Nine in the Afternoon," and then only because it was on Rock Band. XD I'm now making notes on songs and bands I need to listen to: Dawes, Vinyl Theatre, Of Monsters and Men. (I could have sworn I'd heard a song by Of Monsters and Men before, but after looking through a list of their songs, I think I've just seen Hot Topic selling their merchandise so often that the name got stuck in my brain. XD) Edit: @TwiLyghtSansSparkles this is for you!
  13. Okay, yeah, makes sense. =)
  14. LOL. I would say that's a sign of being a Dan Wells or John Cleaver fan.
  15. Bendalloy, definitely. What's your favorite mythological creature, besides the ones Sanderson has made up?
  16. I looooooove "Christmas Eve/Sarajevo" and "Wizards in Winter"!! Can't get enough of that shrieking electric guitar. Vocal Point has an epic a cappella cover of "Sarajevo" (which is funny because "Carol of the Bells" is normally performed by an a cappella choir, and then TSO covered it instrumentally, and then Vocal Point covered their cover a cappella again! XD):
  17. Which character did you have in mind as the psychopath? Zane? Straff Venture?
  18. I wasn't on the Shard then either.
  19. I do not like them, Sam I Am.
  20. Chanuka is another spelling of the holiday Hanukkah. But I don't know what Story Del is referring to either, since I wasn't on the Shard this time last year.
  21. The best news today!! I PASSED MY DIGITAL DESIGN CLASS. This is the class that caused me to stay up until 6:30AM working on a project one night and 7AM another night, brought me to tears multiple times, and triggered my head cold that started last week. I presented my printed portfolio of a magazine article, a flyer, a business card, and a small book this evening, and my professor and his TA both gave me compliments and said they looked really nice. Thank Harmony I don't have to stress over that class anymore. *huge, relieved sigh*
  22. Breast implants. ... Well, this is awkward.
  23. I would be too, if Hulu hadn't removed it...
  24. I know I'm a Sanderfan when I feel inadequate because I've only managed to convince two people to start reading Sanderson: my mom (just the Legion novellas and Reckoners so far, though she hasn't finished Calamity yet), and a nice lady who used to be my neighbor when I lived in Ohio (I got her to buy a copy of Steelheart like a year or more ago, but I don't know if she's even finished reading it).
  25. @bleeder I think more because your name is Bleeder.
