  1. Today I was hauled over a twelve-foot wall by my leg! How was your day? ^_^

      Made my dog happy through online delivery

      One of those team-building ropes course things for work! One of the tasks was scaling a sheer wall with nothing but what we had on us.

  2. TVTropes nicknamed Vivenna "Vivi" and now my heart is doing funny things. Why am I like this.

  3. Nice little trip to Barnes & Noble yesterday!
  4. Watching Love and Monsters. It's pretty good, setting aside the fact that I have to fight the urge to throw up every five minutes.

    Apocalypse by giant insects. And I just ate. :wacko:

      (It was really good, though! 10/10, would recommend. But not right after a meal.)

      I'm getting mixed signals

  5. I like to believe that there are at least some Muggle-born wizards who actually get along great with Slytherins because they don't immediately go "ew slytherin" when they first meet.

      1. Yes, I agree

      2. YOUR PROFILE PICTURE WHAT HAPPENED TO THE OWL?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

      Oh, he'll be back, don't worry! Just trying something out for May. :) 

  6. That moment when a note in somebody's phone has you more shook than an entire 7-book series:

    ...I'm gonna go cry in a corner now.

      aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh

  7. If that ain't a mood... Sorry, bro. Wish there was some sort of cosmic caffeine for situations like this, but best I got right now is a virtual hug (or back slap, if you'd rather). Hope things get better soon!
  8. There once were eyes that only saw you, but you never knew
    A portrait of a flower in full bloom, but you never knew, never knew, no...

    Dunno why this suddenly hits harder now. I've head the song dozens of times before, and I'm not even in a relationship. The heck?

    (How Do You Love, if you're wondering.)

      Sometimes life can change how you hear a song, make it mean something different when it didn't mean anything to you before. See: me listening to "Heaven Help Us" by MCR, a song I used to skip, on repeat. 

  9. Yesssss I love that channel! ...can't relate to that part, though.
  10. You know what's awesome? I'm almost finished watching Re:Zero, and it just occurred to me that all five contenders for the throne are women. 

    That's how you do it, folks. No posturing, no wink wink nudge nudge, just five women being awesome and nobody batting an eye.

     

  11. Villain crushes suuuuck because they're so pretty but they're evil I don't like it help

    And then when you have a thing for reformed villains in particular, but this one's definitely not, and arghhhhh

      This is what fanfic is for, my frustrated friend. :ph34r:

      Glad you like!

  13. Glad to hear it! And I can absolutely believe that, egads!
  14. Oh Harmony I don't think there are words to describe what hearing a bass singing does to my soul.

      You should listen to anything sung by Patrick Page...

      Goodness, he's good! I'm not as much into the Broadway side of things, but color me impressed.

  15. Oh, yeah, Metro's great too!
  16. Like, it's not a deal-breaker or anything, but I just really hope my future girlfriend and I get each other's music. Y'know?

      Music is very personal, like your own personal language of emotion and expression. It would be difficult to connect with someone who only listened to, say, Ukranian techno-polka.

      *nods* ... *nods* ... *nods* ... *spits tea*

  17. There's some surprising gems in the cheaper stuff, not gonna lie! If you wanna keep it cheap, Moonman's pretty good too. Gonna recommend LAMY or TWSBI as a proper next step up, though! The Safari/Al-Star are classics for a reason, and TWSBI just makes a solid pen.
  18. Reading some fanfic. One of the comments after a particularly heartbreaking chapter was:

    Quote

     

    [author], you absolute bastard.

    Write more.

     

    And if that ain't the highest praise an author can receive, I don't know what is. :lol:

      In contrast, I find readers shooting me half-joking angry insults in reaction to things I write to be the highest of honors, and an indication that I evoked the correct set of feels. :D

      I'm sure I've never been one of those people, of course. :rolleyes:

      I once had someone tell me they cried when they read one of my short stories.

      That moment was amazing.

      I love inspiring pain in others.

  19. Bardcore is the best! I think my favorite cover is Orinoco Flow, though.
  20. @Tesh Welcome to the club! Waterman's a sold choice. Look forward to seeing what else you got!
  21. Oh, would you look at that? It's been eight years since I joined the Shard!

    ...it's been eight years. :blink:
