As far as we can tell, her foot got trapped in the pool cover while her right leg fell into the pool. Surgery went well but is in a cast to her mid thigh. We were very lucky because the breaks in her leg are right below the knee and two above the ankle. God was watching out for her, that is for sure. We decorated her cast with bead anklets so it is pretty now.

It might be popular but it shouldn't be allowed, it looks horrible! (no offense to your dad :)) took me a while to train my father not to wear it like that :-\

-Drinking copious amounts of Bailey's.
-Wishing my body didn't like making me miserable. :(
-Curling up with a kitty.
-Reading a terribly boring novel for French.
-just noticed that my mom mailed the RSVP to my bfffl's (best friend forever for life :P) wedding. It's just a formality, she knows I'm coming. She knows my plus one. She knows what we're eating. She knows I'm going to tell embarrassing stories to anyone who will listen when I'm there. The question is, how clean should these stories be? I mean I COULD tell about the cup holder breaking incident, since that was with the guy she's marrying, but.... might that just be a little too dirty? And maybe too cruel? :P
-eating a yogurt. Reminds me of Burn Notice. :P
Yeah, they always have yogurt on Burn Notice. I noticed that too.

I <3 it :D
*Waiting for my oh so yummy salad (not!!)
* About to enroll Royal Oak Members from the USA XD oooh my first one ever, I hope it will be easy!
- Feeling rather sad, though not for any particular reason. The funny thing is, when I feel very sad, I also often feel incredibly nostalgic and start to relive all the things I loved so much when I was younger. Does anyone else ever feel like that?
- Nope, when I am really sad I just sulk in a corner and hope a plane cashes on me!
I think that's a different kind of feeling. For me, that's like angry-sad, but what I'm talking about is just...well...sad.
Well I get nostalgic-sad when I think of Uni, or school or things that I don't do anymore! Friends I don't see as often, thinking back to less stressful times when finding a job wasn't an issue...all those things make me sad and nostalgic!
But then I think of the things I can do; drive, go clubbing (not that I do it that often...but I can!), write BA HONS after my name, find more friends and use my birthday as an excuse to see old friends...so in that way I can cheer myself up a bit!
Hardest thing is when you can't get thing back, like if a pet dies etc! Thats also nostalgic sad! "I wish I'd loved them more" etc
*I'm wondering what possessed me to wear white today...and then why I had to eat dark chocolate...and then why I dropped the chocolate on the top...SIGH
You can't predict what food you will spill! what if you were wearing brown cloths and your icecream fell on it and left a white stain? ;)

Could you acquire me some cake too, Kelsey?
Side quests are fun though, I remember trying to get all the cards in FF8, hunting down all weapons in FF7, etc ;)
Oh gosh, I think I did EVERY sidequest in FF8. Those cards took forever, and all I got was a little star on my menu. XD

ohh, that is an intresting tradition, where does it come from?
It might be an American tradition, but the idea is that if the cake can stay good for a year, so can the married couple. :)

I can get you that song out of your head if you want?
True, you'll end up with a different song in your head.

Telling everyone your plan is generally a bad idea, unless your next line is "I did it thirty-five minutes ago"
I am not telling what my plan exactly is, just that I am making a plan! and announcing it beforehand raises doubt and dispair into the hearts of my opponents, for sure!
Digging up my notes for "Quest Cross," and realizing I'll need a better outline. On a related note to that, trying to figure out just how the heck I'm going to get Graham and Beatrice out of the clutches of the Sequel Police...
Cussing at the fact that KQ7 won't play on my machine, so I'll have to use my old laptop (unless one of y'all has an idea).
Depends what your machine is! ;) and more important, your OS.
Windows 7, 64 bit. Legit copies of the Collections and DOS Box .74 (the latest)

Tell your mother I know for a fact that the lazy thing isn't true. At least not for you, anyway.
She is just in her freak out mode because the trailer isn't packed, our travel bags aren't packed, my car is broken, and that the house looks like a bomb went off. It is natural for her, but completely annoying.

You totally justified that with the time compression thing, didn't you? XD
Awesomely enough I don't have to justify it - we just wanted to have some kind of reward activity for students who could be on time to all of their classes for the last couple of weeks and I suggested going to see Inception. Nobody else had a better idea than that, so we're heading out in an hour or so.
Wish my school had been that cool. We never went on field trips unless you were in AOIT, which I was not.

There is. There's actually the possibility of a publication in both labs and the possibility that my code will be used in the labs on other projects. I don't know about biophys, but in numrel, if that should happen, I would likely get my name on those papers or be cited in them. :pleased:

Aren't they a racket for pricing? I paid over 400 for all of mine this semester.
I am:
*looking at my eBay auctions. One ends tonight and I doubt it'll sell.
*Waiting for favorite TV show to come on
should wait till a few months into the semester before you get them, sometimes the books aren't really be used or helpfull anyways ::)
They are for my three science courses so I'm sure the main text book will be used. I'm hoping I can use my sister's old Spanish books and not pay the 120 bucks for a new one.
Three science courses at the same time? :o
Depending on the class, you might be able to get by with an older version of the book or an entirely different book.
That's what I am hoping. I'm taking Physic, Geology, and Astronomy. None of them have labs, thank god, so I should do okay. Once I get these three classes out of the way, my minor will be completed and I'll only have to do my education block. I'll get one foot out the door. :scholar:
Ah - the no labs part helps a LOT. Labs should be worth more credits than they are - or something. :(
Fortunately, not a whole lot changes in most sciences a few years - at least not enough to make older textbooks obsolete. :)
I couldn't agree more! They take forever, usually three hours, and you only get one stinking credit! :wall: I guess this is what I get for having science as a minor, and will be well prepared to teach to those middle schoolers. :-\
Tell me about it! I was a chemistry major. I made the mistake of taking 20 credits once, and two of my classes had labs! :bomb: Fortunately, it was only a quarter - I don't know if I would have survived a semester!
I did that with Chem and Bio. I eventually ended up dropping the Bio lab, but still took the lecture. I retook the lab last semester to complete the course.
Talking about science...when my sister was in vet school, she was taking 8 science classes a semester...*shudder*

That's too bad! :( They say that donating a pint of blood can save three lives. :yes:
That is not actually true, because by now almost every operation can be done without blood ;)
False advertisement?! What am I doing then, donating blood?! Providing blood for Bella Cullen to drink while she's [spoiler]pregnant with Edward's half-breed child?[/spoiler]
(Yes, it's yet another Twilight reference. Going to Forks kinda got the ball rolling...:X)

Here's an idea why...
Lolotte fingered the talisman at her neck, pretending to be more interested in it than her speculation about Rosella. "No creature, no matter how gentle, is without their breaking point. She will spurn you, drive you to madness. You will crave, you will want, and she will not give. Eventually, Edgar, you will have to force her surrender. You will have to take what you want."
- setting up my new email account
- thinking about learning polar coordinates
Gahh! Creepy Lolotte! :no:

-Looking at old threads

If you're trying to get to an old forum page that redirects you to the index, then try this:
1. Copy the link to the old page you a trying to access.
2. In the URL, after "topic=", there is a 5-digit code ending with ".0".
3. Copy these 6 characters and paste them onto the end of the following URL: http://www.postudios.com/blog/forum/index.php?topic=
And the new link should work. And least it has for me.

-Wondering why people don't understand 'Fan Game' means volunteer project.
what are their critera for volunteer projects then?
They want me active on campus. Do the party thing, work the sidelines at football games, stand around in the sun offering water to walkers. I don't have time for that. I work and got to school until 2:30 when I start my other job until 5. Professors have no idea how busy students are. What I find so funny is the State of New Mexico doesn't have a lot of graduating teachers and the state government complains. There are too many hoops to jump through. I can go to El Paso and get in the teacher program there with just my marks and GPA. Wake up NM!!
-Getting applications for other universities.
-Drying my hair for a meeting, which I am late for. ;D
-Wondering why my hair has a 70's twist to it.
-Glad tomorrow I don't have classes.
I'm confused... What does "making the cut" mean? Are they going to kick you out of school for not participating in campus activities? ??? That's ridiculous!
No it means that if I don't make the cut then I get pushed back another semester and won't graduate until December 2012, if I make the cut next semester. It's complicated, I know.
So... even if you've completed all your academic requirements, they won't let you graduate because you're not active on campus? :stars:
December 2012?! GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! Don't you know that that's The End Day?! ;P
it is all decided in a committee. I have some heavy weight recommendations so I am hoping I can get in despite not having any activities. 6-8 weeks until I find something out. I am :suffer:ing here.
The earth cannot die until I have finished college. I've worked too hard for this. :P
Is this a question of whether or not they will let you into the program? You would think they would understand that people have to work - college is expensive! 6-8 weeks? Ick!
Tell me about it. Oh well, what happens happens, I can't change it now. *Keeps fingers crossed*
Good luck, Waltz!
-petting a kitten on my lap

-Giggling that I got a written response from Starbucks regarding my angry letter
I'm curious - can you give the story on said "angry letter"?
they got her Latte wrong... :P
Also, good luck Waltz!
Yea, just opened up the thread to ask why you were angry with Starbucks. :yes:
-Taking a break from Algorithms homework.
-Looking through my old files from my undergrad Algorithms class and finding files from the exact same problem, just set up a bit differently.
-Eating a cookie
Haha, it's not really that good of a story, I actually wrote the letter on behalf of my mom and aunt. I never actually go to Starbucks. ;]
So my mom and my aunt (who are both named Pam, incidentally) were driving to California a few weeks ago and they really wanted some Starbucks. They were cruising along the highways and kept looking for road signs that said there was a Starbucks at the next exit. The whole trip there was only one sign that they saw. So they get off at the exit and drive for freaking ever. Finally after eleven miles, they pull over and ask where the nearest Starbucks is. Come to find out it's 30 miles more out of their way!
So basically I wrote an angry letter (and lied through my teeth, going on about how "I" was driving to California and how "I couldn't stop at my favorite cafe" :X and all this bull) to inform them that they need more road signs. How in the world am I supposed to find my favorite coffee place without them?! ::)
No offense, but that's a fairly lame story...what did the response say?
I told you it wasn't that good! :P The other angry letter I wrote got me three free coffees (which I gave to my sister), and I wrote it because a barista lied to me. But that's another lame story...
And the letter said this:
"Dear Hailey,
Thank you for contacting Starbucks Coffee Company.
I appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughful suggestion regarding having billboards and signs for Starbucks. I want to assure you that I've shared your comments with the appropriate team for review.
We're always excited to receive feedback from our loyal customers about your Starbucks experience. You know better than anyone else what you want from Starbucks. We are constantly looking for ways to improve the quality of our products and service to create enthusiastically satisfied customers..."
And then there's all this "please contact us if you have any more concerns" crap at the end.
That totally made my dad, Haids. We gotta keep the bureaucracy on their toes. :D
LOL, I'm glad you appreciated it, waltz. :) You made my dad too! ;)
wouldn't that be impossible? if Haids made waltz' dad then that would make haids her grandmother, seeing Waltz is born after haids she can;t make Haids dad :stars:

Cat--sounds like you had a rough yesterday, and that does blow when people do that. It's happened to me, and it always hurts and is also really aggravating/infuriating that people don't seem to know how to or choose not to approach things reasonably for the sake of a friend.
And as for me...

Oh yeah, that's part of owning a Companion. :) Mine's all written in, highlighted in some spots, and has maps drawn all over it. A labor of love!
Oh, good, I'm not the only one to have highlighted and written in it! XD
Haha! Of course not! I'm sure most Questers have. You're not fully appreciating the book to its entirety if it's in pristine condition.
:o Haids! Your signature! YAY!

Completely unfair... all of you... I just got to read the Odyssey, Aeneid, and Divine Comedy in
English of all things! ::) :P
(Although have you ever
tried to read
Epic Homeric Greek... oy gavalt...)
Haha! :D Yup, it's true. All we do is read Harry Potter and some essays on it... and write papers. The next paper coming up is one of those "Who is your favorite character and why?" It's a bit more complicated than that... but that's the jist.
I go to Bowling Green State University in Ohio... The reason it is taught there is because we are one of the first (and the ORIGINAL) places to have an actual Popular Culture department and degree... That's the dept. I'm taking it for.
I'm taking it to finish out my last gen. ed. :D So much fun. We may get to play Quidditch during class one time too. :P
;D ;D ;D
Grrrrrrrr. Stupid boring Washington, with its "History of the Pacific Northwest" and "Forestry 101" classes.
That is beyond AWESOME Travis :) I'd take that class in a heartbeat! And your school whipped my school's football team last Saturday.
*Homework
*Looking for my ipod so I listen it with my homework
We did have to go a bit deeper, but we started with Tolkien and his criteria for what made a fantasy book. Then as we read through LoTR, we discussed the different aspects of fantasy and how he hit all of his criteria. Then we moved on to Harry Potter and how Rowling really developed her fantasy world with everything Tolkien said needed to be included in fantasy.
Wow, I bet that was interesting. That would be one of those few classes that you actually looked forward to!

-Worrying about how I will pass this math class
What's the class?
Sadly enough, Intermediate Algebra. I am a total word nerd, and math and I just don't get along. It's a POIsonous class.
What's your ultimate objective (in terms of job/career)?
I wanna be a librarian, eventually.
So you need math courses to complete your degree? I'm sorry if that's the case. You'd be a great librarian, I'm sure.
!!! Thank you!
I'm pretty sure that I just need math to get my AA degree, which is what I'm working for now. I just need to pass this math class and one more afterwards and then I'll be finished with math. After I get my AA and move onto working for my English degree, I shouldn't need to take any more math. I'm yearning for those days...
Math. It needed to be said one more time.
Cat, what were Tolkein's criteria for a fantasy world? I didn't know he had any. :\
I hope it all works out. You have a noble goal.
Thanks. ;]

Yeah, when Cat and I started I think our max energy level increased more often, but then they nerfed it. Clearing out all the wilderness does take a good while, especially now. But with the varmint thing, you can just leave the varmint there and work around them since only 1 of each type can be on your farm at any given time. And energy won't always be an issue, now I almost always have more than enough energy than I need and if I don't I have a whole lot of food (about 17000) stored up to buy energy anyways.

Can you explain Minecraft? I'm not even sure what it is.
:D
Minecraft's not the easiest game to convey... but basically it's a sandbox game where you collect materials and build stuff while fending off monsters that spawn at night (with not very good graphics, but that's part of its charm and you can install different texture packs to change the look of it). There's different varieties: creative, which is free to play, multiplayer, and gives you an infinite number of blocks to build with but no health or monsters to deal with; this mode is no longer updated and I think going to go away at some point. Then there's the real game, which is still in alpha (going to beta at some point soon), where you have mobs and health; there's single and multplayer, although multiplayer is still under heavy development and not everything works yet. This mode costs 10 euros, but paying that now guarantees you all future updates including the final version which will be more expensive. But there's a lot of cool stuff to play with like minecart systems and this stuff called Redstone which lets you make electrical mechanisms and complicated logic gate stuff.
And that was a lot. :P Anyways, here's a cool trailer for it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FaMTedT6P0I
If you search on youtube there's tons and tons of videos.
Looks pretty interesting. Thanks for the blurb.
No prob. I've gotten pretty into it the past few weeks so I'm more than happy to share. :)
I had always assumed it was a free game because of the amateurish graphics...that's a disappointment.
He's (thus far it's been a one man project) hired some artists now that he's starting up a real company, so the graphics might change.
Might be free someday, Notch has stated that once it's been out for a while and it's not selling much any more he might release it to the public domain. But that's a long ways off, especially since it's selling like crazy atm.

In which case I could not wear it in the US because everyone who learns Greek there learns Koine instead of Attic. :P Which is silly. :P

Hmmm... I know they exist, but I'm not finding any good pictures. What I'm thinking of is a relatively lightweight, stretchy fabric with some sort of pretty print on it. :)

*sighs* :( You know, I'd always hoped that after you got over your silly fascination with Mandarin that we'd learn Lithuanian together. *sniffles* :P
We can still do Lithuanian, but we have no good resources for it. :( I suppose there may be a Lithuanian for Dummies; however, it's been my experience that in the realm of languages I tend to know more or want more than the For Dummies books can provide.
Excuses, excuses. :(

Yeah. They're pimping it out like crazy! I'm all excited 'cause they finally came out with the Late Night expansion pack, and all the stupid Sims 3 console ads dominate the website. It's so lame.
Plus, the forum there is no fun whatsoever. I miss my Questing buddies when I'm there!
I never got into the Sims; it always seemed kinda meh, like playing with dolls.
That's kind what my dad says of it. :P
I used to be really into the Sims. My second post was in a sims thread:
QuoteSims 2 was the best! It was the most i've ever anticipated a game, until now with TSL.
The first time I ever heard of it was back in... middle school maybe? I was in the truck with my dad and he was explaining it to me and a couple of the other Sim games. Immediately thought it sounded really cool, but he didn't want to give to me right then for some reason, so while he was a work the next day I went and found the cd, installed it, and was still playing it when he got home (got in a bit of trouble, but that game was so worth it.)
Was actually watching the intro for the original game on youtube the other day (b/c I saw one of those ads for Sims 3)... so nostalgic, I played that and the 2nd one to death.
Never got all that into Sims 3 though for some reason.
Ah, I remember the Sims. My favorite part was building houses that turned out to cost ridiculous amounts of money. Granted, it gets kind of boring playing God after a while.

Thank you. I had the interview today and didn't get any programming questions, so I studied for nothing and possibly embarrassed myself.
- Currently going through a series of heart attacks
-Feeling rebellious and stubborn: should I get the tattoo on my foot within the next week, or should I do the nice thing and wait five months until after I'm in Jennica's wedding? Hmmm...
-Dreading the way that "five months" looks in writing and yearning for the tattoo
-Wondering if makeup would cover it if I did rebel and get it anyway; after all, it's MY body, Jen! You telling me not to get any more tattoos before your wedding just makes me want to do it all the more!
-Grrrr. Wanting it sooooooooooo badly, but knowing that I'll screw up pictures if I do. But if I were to use makeup... :whistle: What to dooooooooooooooooooo...?
Never though I'd get into a discussion about cosmetics, but:
What's the tattoo?
Haha! It takes a man, Doon, it truly does. ;D
I want to get a pink cupcake on my foot. Not a HUGE cupcake, but decent size. And I'm wearing ballet flats (http://www.shoes.com/productimages/SHOES_IAEC1022469.JPG), so the top of my feet will be all kinds of exposed. (I included a link to a picture for you boys out there. ;)) I don't want to screw anything up or make her mad at me, but it would be so freaking cute!
What's wrong with closed-toe shoes?
(Oh no, I'm talking about shoes.) :no:
Like I said, it takes a man. ;)
There's nothing wrong with closed-toe shoes, that's fine. It's just that the tops of my feet will be exposed, so if that's where the tat was, then it would show. :-\
You should get a tattoo of Graham. Or Cedric.
Much better than a cupcake.
I actually want to eventually get the "My first is foremost legally..." riddle tattooed on me somewhere, but I'm running out of space on my body. ;]
Oh, really? That would be cool. Personally, I would never get a tattoo because my likes/dislikes are notoriously variant and I'd tire eventually of any design.
But I think they're cool on other people. What else do you have?
Oh man, they're everywhere and they're mostly weird. I know I listed them in my thread, but they are:
-A lamp post on my back (I have a thing with the Chronicles of Narnia :yes: )
-A pink butterfly "tramp stamp"
-A Golden Snitch with the words "Mischief Managed" on my left hip (I'm also a Harry Potter nerd)
-A Care Bear riding a My Little Pony on my right hip
-The words "Aslan is on the move" on my left foot (Which translates to: Jesus is working in my life.)

-The words "Aslan is on the move" on my left foot (Which translates to: Jesus is working in my life.)
*fails to understand the translation*
Oh, LOL, I read that as "Asian is on the move", which greatly puzzled me. So Aslan is Jesus, eh? I though C.S. Lewis was an atheist? Or am I wrong?
Actually, no, you're not wrong. :) When C.S. Lewis fought in WWII, he became a full-fledged athiest because he didn't believe that a good God could kill all those innocent people in the war. However, he was also friends with J.R.R. Tolkien, a Christian, and they used to have talks all the time. Eventually Lewis came to believe, thanks to Tolkien, and wrote the Chronicles of Narnia as a parallel to the Bible to spread the Word to children.
That's why the Chronicles are so special to me, they hold such a profound spiritual meaning to me. They're part of my testimony. :)
I consider myself to be neither theistic nor atheistic, but it's cool that the Chronicles are so special to you. I read The LWW many years ago, before I was aware of the whole religious connection, so I missed that layer of meaning.
But now I've taken AP Literature and I can spot Christ allusions from a mile away.
AP Lit totally changes your mode of thinking! I took it junior year in high school and I will never view a snake, a mirror, or an oak tree the same way again. We discussed symbolism in EvErYtHiNg, so now I see it in everything I read, watch, hear...it's crazy!
Oh, cool! I know exactly what you mean - and the most profound effect is that now I have a habit of viewing real life events as if they have symbolic meaning (e.g. I was visiting a friend when all of a sudden it started raining hard; therefore I began to suspect that the visit would somehow be a watershed moment in my life (true story)).
LOL! A kindred spirit! :D I was terrible about doing that sort of thing about a year/two years after high school, but it died down a little. Now I can read The Very Hungry Caterpillar without assuming that the caterpillar is a metaphor for a human who is hungry for change in his life, and must go through several bouts of trial and error before finally being content with himself. :P
EDIT: And, oh! I found a picture of a cupcake tat that's small, adorable, and would be easy to cover!
*winces* Looks painful.
Personally, I would wait until after the wedding. She's specifically asked you not to get one, and you really want the day to be about her, and not going against her wishes.
But that's just what I would do :)
-eating breakfast
-getting ready to dress up in costume for work today! :D
-posting
-fiddling with IDL
-fiddling with chemical species abundances in the code
-being shleepeh an' a lil mopeh
-finding that despite the differences in abundances, the relative intensity of the lines remains the same
(thankfully, we figured out that this probably has something to do with the "fill factor" (such technical names in astronomy ::) (the "fill factor" is basically how much of the beam is filled by light from that source), so it could still be fine)

And I hope your head gets better, Deloria! Headaches suck. :(

Yeah, the disillusionment is sort of revitalized after every election.
I have a novel idea - politicians could try telling the truth. Hey! Stop laughing!
In my state (CT), the Senate race was between the former CEO of World Wrestling Entertainment (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wwe) and a man who lied and said he served in Vietnam...:no:

And I'm probably sure that Oprah camping involves a team of production assistants (Not like you Doon... much more evil)... and getting waited on hand and foot. HA! Put on a backpack Oprah. Suck it up!

Totally! That's what frustrates me so much! The woman does a lot of good, I'll give her that, but watching her do things that normal people should be able to without a hitch and complaining about it really ticks me off. And of course she has the best of every camping product there is, and drives this kick-butt SUV. ::) She's ridiculious. Not as ridiculous as her loyal sidekick Gayle, but ridiculous nonetheless.

Thanks guys. I feel much better now. I still get to finish up the semester there but it's really a question of "do I want another job?" I start teaching in a year so I don't know if it is really worth it or not. Babysitting/tutoring is bringing a good bit of money in at the moment and coordinating TSL is taking a lot of time as well. Maybe I will take it easy my last year of school.

I love Monk! Started watching during it's first or second season and have been watching it ever since. They put up all the seasons as Instant Watch on netflix recently so Jacob and I are re-watching them, an episode a day.
Awesome! I love Monk very, very much (I've seen every episode), and I'm glad to meet another fan. It is an excellent show. I started watching around season 4 or 5, and then borrowed the earlier seasons from friends.
Do you have a favorite episode?

Oh, really? I prefer Sharona because I find the combative Sharona/Monk chemistry to be far more interesting that the sympathetic Natalie/Monk dynamic. I do like them both, though.

Indeed. I kept refreshing it all yesterday and today.
I was wondering (or hoping, more appropriately :P) if the site would be all revamped for Episode 3. A girl can only dream...
Unfortunately, it was just some server maintenance.
*Siiiiiiggggghhhhh...*
Ah, well, it's a necessity, I suppose. But I am soooooo glad to be back! I missed you guys. :)
I kept forgetting it was down, so I kept trying to come here. Kind of like turning on your TV when the power is out.

I actually live in USA - Washington state. My oldest brother and his friend go hunting, they share the meat with all the family. Its pretty good.
Oh my gosh, me too! :D You are one of the only other Wasingtonian Questers here besides myself and a sadly infrequent poster named Allronix. Whereish do you live? I'm in a suburb about 45 minutes from Seattle...you anywhere nearby? ;D
Im out in the country - i was born and raised in the city but moved out country side about 10 years ago
i guess without saying where i am but while giving you a clue would be outer Puyallup area.
How awesome! I'm so excited that there's someone other than me who knows about the rain and the coffee! ;D
true true, Speaking of, the rain... what about the snow, just last week there was 13 inchs out here. Maddness!
Im not one of t.h.e craziest coffee fans, but i do enjoy it. infact i want some now. lol
Yeah, I actually posted some pics of it in my thread down yonder. :) Pretty crizaze! How much did you guys get in your area?

Well right now I'm doing some video editing for the Harry Potter Archive project that I'm helping with.

I've been reading a lot of Dresden Files books. I'm now on book 10.
I'm also rereading some other books, Forgotten Realms The Finder Stone trilogy, to gather information for a story idea I'm outlining, thought I have no creative writing capability to write it. :-(
If anyone has any Harry Potter related stuff recorded that you can donate let me know.

I look forward to having snow all year. When it started snowing about two days ago, I giddily ran outside with bare feet and romped through the single centimeter of snow we had.
I look forward to spring starting in the fall. Once spring finally arrives, I usually have a few nightmares about it snowing again. :P
Snow gets old REALLY quick. I agree with you, Snabbott!

FAIL = 0
WIN = 1
GRID = FAIL
while (GRID .eq. FAIL) do
c reinit() and remode() are functions of my frontal lobe responsible for trying to figure out what went
c wrong and correct it
define_model.c = remodel(define_model.c)
setup.c = reinit(setup.c)
Modelcube0 = runcode(define_model.c, setup.c)
c visualize_cube is a function (in my occipital lobe) that reports whether or not IDL plotted anything.
c It returns FAIL when IDL doesn't and WIN when IDL does (FAIL and WIN may or may not also be
c associated with dopamine levels in the postgrad brain).
GRID = visualize_cube(Modelcube0)

I think there's a bug though (or more likely just an error in the comments) - it sounds like GRID gets set to WIN even if IDL plots incorrectly. :P
Or maybe this is just temporary code until IDL plots anything and will then be replaced with code to determine how to get it to plot the right thing.

Are you a certified teacher now, waltz? :D
Not yet. Next summer I will be, May 2012 here I come! I am knee deep in student teaching, which I have to do for a three semesters. It's a bit of a pain but I love the kids. I made each one a personal Valentine today and am making a fruit salad for the party tomorrow. It is super rewarding and I am planning to take classes this summer in Blind Education so I can teach at the blind school here.
I'm also trying to get a certificate in Game Development too but that might be after graduation.
That's so sweet! :sweetheart:
What grade?
You are so freaking cool, waltz. :)
Awe, thanks. ;]

Any ideas on how to teach 3rd and 4th grades kids fractions?
Real-life analogies would be helpful. For example:
-Draw a pie cut into 10 pieces. Color x slices in blue, and ask what fraction of the pie is blue.
-Look the composition of your class. Ask "what fraction of kids in this class have brown eyes?" This is especially good because it personally involves the kids.
-Drinking water :suffer:
-Glad to be back. Hi guys, I missed you a lot!

- Having a lot on my mind, as always
Did you like the Watchmen film? I thought it was decent, but failed to capture a lot of the color and grit of the comic book. A lot of the beautiful details contained in the comic book were too fine or difficult to translate into film, I think.
Obviously I didn't think it was nearly as good as the comic, but it really couldn't have been. But I do think that it was probably the best Watchmen film we could have hoped for, especially when you consider some of the things I've heard Hollywood wanted to do with it.
That's probably a fair assessment.

-Giggling over something my local news station just featured: a woman who was raised in the 80's has four children who are 17, 15, 10, and 8. She gave them each a piece of technology from her era to see if they could figure it out. The 17 year-old got a Commodore 64 and was on the verge of tears in frustration, not knowing how to load a program; the 15 and 8 year-olds got an Atari and couldn't figure out the joystick (seriously? spoiled sh*ts! ::)); and the 10 year-old couldn't understand the concept of a tape deck. She couldn't figure out how to open it and was attempting to pry it open with her fingernails! :suffer: It was sooooo funny, and made me strangely proud to be an 80's baby. ;)
Wow, that's awesome. I think I'd be able to operate all that technology even though I was born in the 90s. I really like the 80s.
I was born in the 70s, and I'm not sure I could load a program on a C64 without looking it up on the internet. :suffer: Give me DOS, though, and I'm all set! Even on Windows 7, there are a number of things I prefer to do in a DOS window.
Yeah, I don't think I was ever allowed to touch Dad's precious C64 when I was a little lass, so I don't think I'd have a clue how to manage one. But the other two I could figure out no problem! My first car had a tape deck still! :P
My car still has a tape player!
Seriously?! That's awesome! LONG DISTANCE HIGH FIVE!

Really? Sick! I love my Accord dearly! The heating broke last year, but we fixed it (though I did have to drive for a few months this Winter without heating). I just checked the other week and it's getting 29.3 miles per gallon, which is remarkable for a car of its age.

I currently drive a 2002 Honda Accord and I LOVE it. Plan on driving it until it dies. Erik got a 2009 Hyundai Elantra back in August, and while it's a cool car, I don't think I can give up my loyalty to Honda when my car goes to the Great Parking Lot in the Sky.
I married into a GM family, so I think I would be disowned for buying a foreign car. :P I've heard nothing but good things about Honda, though.

See, my Accord went to said Parking Lot three years ago, ( :'() so I had to switch to my current '02 Elantra. I love her, and she's been good to me.

I was running on three hours of sleep every night while trying to take morning classes at the community college as well. I believe that's when I began drinking coffee again...

Yeah - antidepressants are frustrating. It seems like it takes for them to start working fully and to get the dose right. It does get better, though. My mom was having SSRI withdrawal (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SSRI_discontinuation_syndrome) symptoms because they switched her meds. Of course, they didn't bother to tell her about withdrawal. >:(
Thanks for the concern y'all. I'm on Prozac 40 mg a day, but it doesn't make much of a difference. I've had it upped once already so I'm not sure if I should simply increase the dosage or change the medicine.
My experience has been that it takes about a month for a medication to reach full effect. (Frustrating, I know!) If it's been less than that, probably wait and see. All I can say is stay with it. I haven't had to change my meds in several years now. :)
Yeah, Snabbott's right, it takes a little while for your meds to start working. I had to try three different times before I found the right fit for me. Just keep your doctor updated. :)

lol! How many glasses of water have you had today, Haids? And how many ounces each??
Hmm, that's a very, very good question. I know my "drinking gourd" that I use at home every day is something like 40 ounces, and I suck it through a straw and just keep refilling it. So let's see...I think I've filled it up five times since I've been on the computer, but I have a 24-ounce water bottle I keep at work that I fill up probably four times a workday. I'll let you guys do the math, Doon and Snabbott. ;)
And Caaaaaaaaat! You poor kiddo, you need to go to the doctor! You've been sick too much lately! :(

I just do it socially, guys! Like when I'm checking the forums or my email...or chatting with my co workers..or eating dinner...or watching TV! I can stop whenever I want! Honest! (And LOL, I actually AM drinking water right now! How did you guess? :rofl: )
I know...I'm never sick this much. HAS to be the stress of life...have some other medical things going on as well :(

Using your highest estimates:
(40 x 6) + (24 x 5) = 360 fluid ounces =
2.81 U.S. gallons!Whaaaat?
I think you were right about that intervention, doon.

It fails hardcore, but maybe it's salvageable? HALPZ, plz?"), at which point having done all of that, if I do all of that, I will take the rest of the weekend off and take an immediate nap

Peeps are my baby chicks. I lost three chickens this month. Lewis, my little baby boy, didn't make it. :-[ I had to give another baby, Zorro, up because he was fighting too much with his daddy. Another one died from a heart attack. These little ones are still too small to be outside so they sleep beside my bed so they can curl up on my hand at night.

They are my little chicken nuggets. This picture was about two weeks ago. They are much bigger now.
Oh my gosh, waltz, I believe I have turned into a full-on puddle of raspberry Jell-O! :smitten: You must really, really love animals. I am sorry to hear about your losses, though, that's so hard. :(
When you said "the peeps" I thought you were referring to your family. I was like, "Wait, do they share beds or something...?" :rofl:
That's what I thought too at first.
LOL. When referring to my friends I say my buds. I call them peeps because of the marshmallow peeps I get on Easter. Animals are the best thing. My little Guenevere will cry out because she wants to be picked up and Rapunzel loves to ride on my shoulder. Michaela is a free spirit, she does what she wants when she wants.

Isn't it amazing how even the smallest of creatures have their own personalities? You're so right, waltz, animals are the best. :)
And sidebar--why don't we have a high-five emoticon? ??? I give high fives all the time in real life, it feels like I should be able to online also! When someone says something awesome it's just a reflex to raise my hand for a fiver! Maybe I should bug Katie about it.
Katie is super busy with important things at the moment so I doubt that she has time, but it still never hurts to ask. :D
I'll try to get an updated picture for you guys tomorrow, they have tripled in size and are curious as ever. Never believe for a second that any animal is dumb. You just can't apply human thinking to it, except for Annie, she is always planning something. My Daddy Rooster knows the word 'no' and even will not approach me until he has flapped his wing and I bow my head to him. Until then, it is bed time, the babies will be up at 3am so I need to sleep. Night all

XD XD Yes, well, my mother, being the fantastic woman that she is, decided she wouldn't take me to the hospital so I could have a morphine pump and some actual pain relief because she was worried what people would think of her. So I basically got drugged up on soporific drugs and have been sleeping roughly 1/2-3/4 of the day away since Monday. :P And screaming and taking oxy for the rest. ::)

I'm don't quite know. She also wasn't terribly pleased when I started taking oxy. :P I've had a morphine pump before, so I'm not sure why it would suddenly no longer be an acceptable thing.

No, I didn't misspell "water," shockingly enough. :no: I had an upset stomach today, so I stuck to a bland diet and ginger ale. I do that every now and then when my stupid unpredictable tummy acts up.
Ah, sorry to hear that. We do the same thing in my family. Hopefully you'll feel better tomorrow. :)

:thumbsup: Just got done with that! Talk about AMAZING! :D
-Having some Hailey time (aka: alone in my room, listening to music and sipping water)
-Hearing the rest of the family watch Toy Story in the living room, which I didn't want to watch because I've cried enough in the past few days. :P
-Feeling emotional...it's been quite a weekend!
Here's a hug, Haids. :hug:
Awww, thank you! I love hugs! :) I'm not really sad, I'm just...well, emotional! It's one of those moments where everything--from hearing the lyrics to "Two is Better Than One" to seeing William and Kate kiss--makes me cry. ::)
* Feeling very mixed about my last six days on campus. I want to get my work done but I don't know the next time I will see my friends again :(
*Thinking some time this week I will bawl my eyes out. This feels different than graduating HS. I've really made some bonds with these people.

You don't have to cut them out of your life just because you're leaving the school. :) I know it won't be the same, but I'm sure you'll still see something of each other. :)

*About to bawl my eyes out because it's my last day on campus and I don't think I'll see one of my friends before they leave. *sigh* I predict a crying spree in the next 48 hours. I do I do.
Saying goodbye (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E8f_LeD1hDM) really, really sucks. :( But the ones who matter will keep in contact with you. I've learned that it's only the ones who count are worth hanging onto. :yes:
-Eating one of my sister's cookies. :lovegoggles:
-Pondering the general stupidity of the Sims 3 forumers
-A bit nervous about my chicas from work taking me out drinking tonight...I'm not one for bars...
I hope so :) I got to see four of my closest friends today at some point today so it was all good. (including the one I wasn't sure I would see). Still makes it sad, though.

-Feeling the need to explain: My body's trying to kill me again. :P I was a day pre-septic yesterday. :P Did I mention that this only happens to 1 out of 1000 females with this IUD? :P I've heard the words "You're too young for this!" or "I've never seen that before." or "You're the 100th documented case of this EVER. That's why we didn't know what to do and ended up messing everything up." so many times and I'm so sick of this body. :'(
-Taking oxy. :P
-Posting instead of packing for Rome. :P
- hugging Deloria over the internet. :hug:
Geez, you really do need these hugs, Deloria. :hug:
If your mother isn't letting you get the treatment you need, you might have grounds to sue her arse for negligence, depending on your country's laws. This is getting ridiculous.
I know it sucks, Deloria, but you'll power through it and come out the other side being tougher than you knew you could be! I'm keeping you in my warm, fuzzy thoughts. :hug:

Oh, no, she is. She refused to take me to the hospital once when I had to go off all treatment so I could get an implant to keep the endometriosis from spreading. She thought it would be a better idea to keep me sedated for the better part of five days than take me to the hospital (as my doctors suggested) so I could have a morphine pump (so the agony would actually be manageable ::)) because she was worried about what people might think. :P But generally, she's pretty good about letting me get the treatment I need, when she doesn't think I'm being a hypochondriac when there are things genuinely wrong with me.
-Having the most incredible boyfriend in the whole wide world. <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

Well, she is a redhead(:lovegoggles:), so there's a good chance of that. :-\
What I'm doing:
Press F5
Wait a few seconds
Click
Repeat
I wrote a program using the Windows API to do most of a repetitive task for me, but I don't trust it enough to let it run all by itself - so each F5-Wait-Click is one cycle. I've done ~400 this morning. :dead:

Pretty awesome! :D Spent yesterday at the museums at Seattle Center and the Space Needle, then today walked through Pike Place and along the waterfront and visited the Aquarium. Tomorrow we're heading to the zoo for a bit before heading back for the 4 hour drive. Been a lot of fun! :D We might take another trip up the Space Needle tonight once it gets darker, we got the City Pass thing and that had tickets for two trips up.
Oh, fun! :) I always watch the otters at the Aquarium; they're sooooooo adorable. And I'm glad you got to go up to the Needle--I haven't been up there since I was little, when I discovered the hard way that I'm afraid of heights. ;) I'm so happy you're having fun! Seattle is an adventure for sure. And hey, we're both in King County right now! :highfive:

It was several JRPGs: almost my entire collection of Wild ARMs (1-3 & 5), Valkyrie Profile 1&2, and Breath of Fire: Dragon Quarter. They did not steal Wild ARMs 4 (which shows they have some taste, but then truly tasteful people are not petty thieves) or Wild ARMs:Altercode F (which demonstrates a lack of taste).
On the plus side, my memory card was still in the WA4 case.
I emailed Delta and basically said: I am out ~$350, you have de-incentivized customer loyalty with your changes to the medallion scheme and you will do something about this or I will take the next ~7000€ of my business elsewhere. Doubtless this will accomplish nothing... except my flying on American Airlines from here on out and never again checking anything but clothes... I may consider including a jerry-rigged ink pack and can of mase... "let's see: your hands and face are blue and your eyes are red and irritated... are you sure you didn't open something you weren't supposed to?"... hrmm... maybe some skunk scent too... sure I'll have to wash my clothes with vinegar... but it warms my heart to think of some thief blue, blind, and blech! :evil: (I either take things too far or not far enough :P)

I have heard back from both Delta and the TSA. Delta, not surprisingly, just said: "we're sure you're upset about this, but we aren't responsible for your belongings (when you commit them to our care). :deal:" ::) The TSA suggested that I contact all 4 airports lost and found services. ::) Seriously?
Now, most likely what happened was that some baggage handlers somewhere along the way took it upon themselves to "inspect" my bag. JFK has a reputation for such things, but that in no way rules out ATL and Charlotte, NC. (For some reason, I find it least likely that they were removed in Shannon... even though there certainly was a looooong delay getting the bags for my flight.) *sigh* Anyway, who wants pie? I made pecan! (And I need to make lemon meringue soon as my roommate is returning. :D) (The worst part is when I get bored and/or frustrated with DDO & LOL, I go: "Man, I play these too much... and they've become more like work than fun... wasn't I bringing back a solution to all of this? Yeah, let's play some... Wi...ld... ARM...s ... oh, right... people suck.")
Oh, right, what am I doing...
-being in the office
-finishing the HCN model (maybe... there is... an oddity... :-\)
-needing to work on the NH3 model...
-taking a break
-not surprisingly trying to stretch out said break until I feel comfortable calling it quits for the day (is 3pm good? 4'd be better... should be in 'til 5 actually... bad brain, stop working against my lazy :stabs:)
-the main reason I'm trying to stretch it out: I need to go put the oddity into all of the other models and see if it works then... if it DOES, then I'm golden :D... if it doesn't (more likely)... well, I have to start over on them... :-\
-also, also b/c NH3 (ammonia) doesn't want to behave itself... >:( :(
- visiting the forum for the first time in ages (seems like it anyway) XD

I should clarify: An extremely pretty acquaintance of mine has questionable taste in men, to the degree that she's *still* dating an illegal immigrant who makes minimum wage, is nine years older than she is (at 18), and has cheated on her repeatedly, as well as publicly insulted/humiliated her, stolen from her, treats her horribly in public if potential future conquests are around, and is borderline emotionally abusive (it's *her* fault he cheated). They've now been together for over a year and it's always been like that. Her reason? She finds him incredibly attractive and she can't bear the thought of not being his arm-candy and the thought that he'll be with someone else. She spends most of her time in tears after talking to him or being with him. She keeps coming to her senses, breaking up with him, and then taking him back in a matter of days.
I *really* didn't miss the drama.
Oh I hope she finds someone better. Parts of that are all too familiar to me. I was with an emotionally abusive s/o (although he will NEVER admit that he was). My heart aches for her. It's hard to get away but it can be done. You can't just snap your fingers and be done with it. Eventually (hopefully) the person realizes they can do better and stuck to their guns. I sure did. and I will get off my soapbox now.
*Psyched that my first Four Winds is published.
*Amused at the artwork to go with said article
*Relaxing at home
But she admits she doesn't love him. ::) She just hates the thought of not having him. It's like they're treating each other like possessions rather than people and keeps me from having any sympathy with her at all.
-finding it ironic that the Mac's "TextEditor" cannot actually make plain text documents ::)

-Relaxing today after taking the dog to Tucson yesterday for Chemo.
-Listening to the chickens clucking under the window.
-balking at bash... it has now decided that throwing scrambled bits of the script back at me constitutes a cogent error message :(
-finding that nothing I do changes the error message :(
-wanting to go home... :-\
-not finding much help... the internet seems to indicate that the code should run as is... as do tests of version dependent features run from the command line... my office mates don't use bash apparently ::)
-About to take a shower
-Sneezing
-Yearning for a piece of the Almighty Hershey Kiss
-debugging
-finding things "curiouser and curiouser" (:hug: Lewis Carroll): after eliminating 1 error message (unexpected end of line) which was in retrospect simply something I was ignorant of in terms of how bash works (yay! bash OOP... -_-), it now tells me that there is a different unexpected end of line... on a line that doesn't exist (it's beyond the end line of the script in question)
-posting

-not so infrequently as I would like... chiding the ceiling to keep the lights on! (the lights in the room are controlled by motion sensors, but there isn't one over my desk, so I have to throw my hand up over my shoulder each time the lights turn off... I have taken to throwing the hand up in a scolding fashion (wagging finger))

-Programming
-Washing my feet
-Building a house on The Sims 3

-being puzzled and bemused by something
-wanting my violin back :-\
-needing to write an IDL program... :S (I've been writing so much bash lately... it feels like I've forgotten all of my other programming languages)
-still being annoyed at something suggested at the Capoeira workshop this weekend (apparently, if you want to be a "good Capoeirista", you should learn Portuguese... and give in to guilt trips from your instructors: sorry, guys, but my mom is better at those than you... it didn't work when she tried either, or else I wouldn't even be here... ::) ...also, guys, I'm working on 7 languages at the moment... Portuguese can wait its turn, but it'll be a bit ::) ...and they wonder why they have low student retention :-\ ::))

I could go all "there are other people in my life who might disappear and whatnot... you're not the only possibility there..." but we both know that'd be bogus. :P I'm glad you found relief from your panstygia at least in part. :)

(on left shoulder) Don't do it, ladida! There's work to be done and you're the only one competent enough to perform such actions!

Took me like 5 mins to figure out what you were talking about!
-Just got home from work
-Pondering if I should shower or if I am too tired
-email is empty, that makes me sad
-Mentally telling off supervisor for giving 8 hours of work to do in 2 hours
-Hating myself for bringing work home
-Feels like I need a distraction tonight, watch tv tonight?
-Can't wait to crawl into bed to cuddle with my Jack pillow and my awesome Disney "Where dreams come true" blanket throw....pun intended....heh

Really? That's interesting, since in the middle ages the left hand was seen as evil and the right hand as good. (dexterous, from latin "dexter" = "right"; sinister, from latin "sinister" = "left") I presume it came about because most people are right handed and the majority is always the good guys in this context. Do you know why the Greeks had it the other way around?
Have to get ready for work in ten minutes and am wondering if the towels in the dryer will be dry.
*looks at the little wash rag hanging on the rack...* o.0
-Waiting with irritation to go to work. The last fifteen minutes before you have to be somewhere really, really suck. What do you do with yourself while you wait?!
-REEEEEEEEEEALLY hoping I don't have to be in tods again today.
-All annoyed that it's raining out (:shock:) and the bottoms of my pants are all wet
-Feeling withdrawal symptoms from not taking my Celexa the past couple days. :angel: My head is foggy, the floor seems to bounce, and my fuse has been clipped to a quarter of its original size. Thankfully my refill will be waiting at Safeway for me when I leave work--so until then, I guess all floors will remain feeling like rubber surfaces. >:(
I found three weevils in my place when I got home...and squashed them.
Now all I want to do is clean.
pft.

It was euphemism. :P You don't actually name the evil thing "the evil thing"; instead you refer to it as "the better" to throw it off of the fact that you're onto it. :P :yes: ((It's a very Greek thing to do, vis a vis their way of dealing with their own superstitions.))
Sinister for instance initially really just meant "left"; it's just that being "left" came to be associated with being "evil" or "under-handed" (possibly a Greek influence on the Latin and post-Latin world). Suddenly, sinister means lurking and evil. ::) Silly medieval peoples. :P

-Agonizing over my hardware exam. Just turned it in and I'm all twitchy and scurred over what I may or may not have gotten on it. :sweating:
-About to cover my programming code in dummy notes:
//we need to make sure that X is declared in the global section so that it applies to everything
//else within the code. Likewise, we need to rename the array to something less
//generic so that we can understand when we use it later.
-Feeling even MORE twitchy thanks to the triple shot 24-ounce mocha I just chugged to "help" me with my exam. ZING!
-being bored...
-finding horrible things online :shock:

-being perplexed by the behavior of HCN :(
-Repairing my glasses... one of the nosepads fell off and I can't find it, so I broke off one from my old pair and superglued it to my current ones :P

What... are... you... saying...? :P
Look, Brandon, I'm worried about you. We all are. I like and admire you for so many, many reasons, but I'm worried that if you continue down this road you'll start using terminology like "boy thingy", quoting Evanescence, MCR and Good Charlotte, falling in love with fictional characters (not in a princesse lontaine way), sleeping in a coffin lined with hot pink material and describing your wardrobe to me in minute detail every single day. I can't let that happen to you. So we're staging an intervention because using ellipses excessively is only the beginning of the very slippery slope you're on.
*hugs*
I believe the term you're looking for is Buffy Speak (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/BuffySpeak) (Warning, that is a TV Tropes link, click at your own risk). :P

Also... I've always used tons of ellipses. This is not new.
-being traumatized after having finished My Immortal and even just reading about other fanfics
-realizing that at least it's not like these things were published and sold to mass markets and had movies made out of them... that is reserved for vampires who sparkle in the sun

It's not Buffy Speak. :P It's the first "sex scene" in My Immortal, which may be the worst thing ever written. :P
QuoteAnd then............... suddenly just as I Draco kissed me passionately. Draco climbed on top of me and we started to make out keenly against a tree. He took of my top and I took of his clothes. I even took of my bra. Then he put his thingie into my you-know-what and we did it for the first time.
"Oh! Oh! Oh! " I screamed. I was beginning to get an orgasm. We started to kiss everywhere and my pale body became all warm. And then....
"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING YOU MOTHERFUKERS!"
It was.............................................................Dumbledore!
...........I think I left the party too early, then rejoined too late. ;]

In contrast to other "sex" scenes throughout "My Immortal", of which I assure you (please don't go find out if you value your brain cells) there are many, here are some points:
1) Enjoy this usage of "passionately"--throughout the rest of the... yes..., all such things are done "passively". It's as if someone corrected her usage here, she accepted the correction and then proceeded to use the suggested correction, "passively", throughout.
2) "Dumbledore" is spelled correctly. (did you copy and paste this, Deloria? I find that incredibly hard to believe, especially as the number of times "Dumbledore" is spelled correctly is vanishingly small in that piece of... yes...) Common spelling mistakes for Dumbledore include: Dumbledum, Dumblydore, Dubledork, Dumbeldork, and Dumblewhore [from the PPC wiki].
3) "bra" is spelled correctly: much as there are many, many egregious, gratuitous poorly written and managed sex scenes, there are probably more detailed descriptions of the characters' outfits. Between the two, "bra" comes up ... A LOT... though mostly referred to as "bar".
4) Here she acquires an orgasm... in most such passages, it's an "organism" or something between the two. An
i has a tendency to float around in this word throughout the "text" for unknown reasons.
5) It will be some 43 odd "chapters" before she manages a "sex" scene without appeals to such euphemisms, but when she gets there, you'll wish she hadn't.
One does not "win" with "My Immortal"--one either survives or eats one's own brain in protest.
It has disturbingly come to my attention (while trying to get context for the atrocity that was "My Immortal") that ACTUALLY as egregious, frequent, terrible, and terrifying as the "sex" scenes in My Immortal are, they are relatively TAME in comparison to others in the HP fanfic base... some of the others are even competently written by people who know how to use like grammar and stuff. Fanfic requires a SAN check.

Neither of those passages are as bad as the ones where she seems to get the what goes where mixed up, backwards, or just plain wrong, which happens at least 2 or 3 times. :no: (they're not in general ever more explicit than those, just troubling in how wrong they get the few details they relate ::))

They end up taking ME, then toss me the keys and are like, "Later dude, I'm off to catch some sun!!" And then I begrudgingly trudge home in a 45-minute drive only to come back to the suburbs and discover that the rain has turned to hail, and the forecast doesn't even include sunbreaks. :(

I once had a waitress from Taiwan whose name was "Porn". I missed that place because it was like the only Asian place that would give you bite size pieces of broccoli instead of, you know, fist size pieces. Why do restaurants always do that!?

-Reading Romeo and Juliet and getting all choked up. I know that Shakespeare has (brilliantly) written more than just this one play, but like most other Americans, I was introduced to him by reading it, so it goes down in history as My Favorite Shakespeare Play Ever. [R+J Gush] God, I'm such a girl/baby/sap. I cry e v e r y time I read it. Not just the situation of the "Hey baby, let's commit suicide!!" scene, but the language. Ohhhhhhhhhhhh myyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy goooooooooooooosh. I get all prickly and goosebumpy even when I read minor things like, "...they may seize on the white wonder of dear Juliet's hand and steal immortal blessing from her lips." :smitten: I get this huge lump in my throat and start flapping my hands like a madwoman. You guys would make fun of me soooooo bad if you watched me read it! [/R+J Gush]

Don't read too much poetry these days, I've become much more fond of reading famous letters from interesting or famous people. Reading a collection of letters from a doctor who ran an American Insane Asylum from the 1890-1930s, very interesting.
But here is an exert from my fav. poet. He is describing the mother of all monsters.
[spoiler]She was a gordian shape of dazzling hue,
Vermilion-spotted, golden, green, and blue;
Striped like a zebra, freckled like a pard,
Eyed like a peacock, and all crimson barr'd;
And full of silver moons, that, as she breathed,
Dissolv'd, or brighter shone, or interwreathed
Their lustres with the gloomier tapestries -
So rainbow-sided, touch'd with miseries,
She seem'd, at once, some penanced lady elf,
Some demon's mistress, or the demon's self.
Upon her crest she wore a wannish fire
Sprinkled with stars, like Ariadne's tiar:
Her head was serpent, but ah, bitter-sweet!
She had a woman's mouth with all its pearls complete:
And for her eyes: what could such eyes do there
But weep, and weep, that they were born so fair?
As Proserpine still weeps for her Sicilian air.
Her throat was serpent, but the words she spake
Came, as through bubbling honey, for Love's sake,
And thus; while Hermes on his pinions lay,
Like a stoop'd falcon ere he takes his prey.[/spoiler]

-Vaguely working on programming homework
-Wondering what the point of methods (subprograms, procedures, functions, subroutines, etc) are. I've been doing just fine the whole time writing all the code under the clicky button! I'm sure one day I'll find some great use for them, but as of right now I don't get it.
Well, imagine you want to find out whether a number is prime. You might write a boolean method called isPrime() that takes in a number, then goes through lots of factors to see if it's evenly divisible. If at some point it turns out it is, you would return false, but if at the end it wasn't, you return true.
Then let's say you need to know if a whole bunch of numbers are prime. You don't want to write that entire bit of code a billion times in your program, so you can just be like isPrime(someVariable) and isPrime(someOtherVariable). That way you can reuse code without copying and pasting. It's really quite wonderful. XD

Unfortunately, this is a normal part of grad school. :-\ It's frustrating, but I suppose it prepares you for having to write grant proposals. It also forces you to take a step back and look at the bigger picture - sometimes you can get so caught up in the details that you don't realize that a different approach might be better; at least that has been my experience.

I got injured at work and 18 months after the accident I'm finally going to get my surgery. Never get hurt at work! I'm kind of anxious, never had surgery before and I really don't want to go under but...at least I'm get to "experience" what Michael Jackson last moments might had been like....Bad taste!? (bu really, I superlly duperlly <3 MJ!)
This is my fourth in about two and a half years, but this time they're actually turning my uterus around, shortening/tightening the ligaments and removing endometrial lesions. The upshot is that I'll have to figure out how to enjoy sex with everything messed up and desensitizing scar tissue everywhere. :( I'm so unhappy about this, but my legion of doctors want to try this before giving a 20-year-old a hysterectomy.
As for going under, it's a very individual thing; I always wake up really traumatised and somewhat hysterical, but most people manage well enough. :)

That's a good thing, though--they're going through every option before doing something irreversible. As it stands now, are you able to get pregnant? And if not, could this surgery fix that or is it a surgery strictly to improve your sex life?
I'm so sorry that you're having all these problems, Deloria. You're far too young to have so many. But the surgeons know what they're doing, and you'll be in good hands! :hug:
-Discussing the Women in Computing of Puget Sound Foundation with a class buddy
-Procrastinating on continuing my Photoshop exercises
No, the surgery isn't meant to improve my sex life -- rather the opposite in fact (desensitization is not a good thing). It's just supposed to make day-to-day living without opiates an option. :( And I have PCOS and endometriosis so getting pregnant without IVF is probably going to be difficult, so the reason for avoiding a hysterectomy isn't really to preserve fertility but because there are so many complications associated with early menopause that we're trying to avoid. This is irreversible too, so that they're not doing something even more irreversible is small comfort though. :(
I got hit directly into my left eye at work. Just imagine some punk slammed your head down on a pool table, took a pool stick and smashed it directly into your eye without braising your cheek or anything. I got 5 dents in my eye, double vision now and my eye has deviated 35 degrees off center. When I look in the mirror, I feel like I look retarded to people cuz my eyes are all over the place. (excuse the political correctness btw if that is offensive to anyone). I have to wear these special glasses to see straight but it blurs my vision and it involves using a prism so I have spent the last year seeing rainbows everywhere I go. Sigh.
wow Deloria you have both? That's awful. Hopefully this will improve your day to day health. How often do you have the attacks?

How did that happen? I'm so sorry to hear that. It sounds so very unpleasant. :( I have doctors who can exert a huge amount of pressure on other doctors and make me sound sufficiently pitiable that I was offered a surgical appointment five days after seeing the specialist who wants to perform it for the first time. I didn't take it, but I still only had to wait a month. It always shocks me to hear about people who have to wait months and months for non-elective surgeries.

About twice an hour on a really good day and several dozen per hour on a really bad. As far as PCOS goes though, I don't look androgynous, have excessive acne or am overweight, so at least you can't physically tell by looking at me. The reason for the surgery is that I have a retroverted uterus with extreme mobility (hence the tightening/shortening of the ligaments) so it tends to cause contractions and really hurt quite badly whenever I physically exert myself and it bumps into another organ, which means near-constant bedrest. :(

Phew! Good, I have atleast one potential reader. Reply to that thread once you read it, and tell me what you think! :)
-Feeling satisfied: we learned something new today in programming (enumerations) and it seems easy. Plus, we did the exercise on it and it was a piece of brownie. Woohoo!
-Wishing I hadn't finished my mocha so quickly. I yearn for more coffee...
-Humming "Stacy's Mom." Remember that song? Gets stuck in my head waaaaaaaaay too easily!
-All bruised up from shooting up over the weekend. Shooting down? (I donated blood.)

I could write a novel on how much I hate the Twilight series. The writing and what it advocates. BLECH! If you want the full rant, I'll ibox it to you.

Well, this particular outing was America's Most Hated Family IN CRISIS, a documentary on the Westboro Baptist[sic] Church[sic] by David Theroux, about Kansans being self-righteous, self-justify, self-agrandizing, Zionist, and hate-expelling spouts of vitriol.
In other veins of misanthropy-, misocosmia- inducing claptrap, see Twilight, My Immortal, and so many more... :yes: (NB: These can just be depressing and traumatizing if you aren't in the right mindset for it.)

Love/hate relationship with Twilight. Read 'em. Enjoyed 'em. Been to Forks. LOVE to make fun of them! They're sooooooo not the greatest pieces of American literature ever written, but they're fun to read. It's nice to lose yourself in them, then gag later and psychoanalyze with fellow love/haters. I think Katie can agree with me on this one. :yes:
-About to do some Photoshop exercises
-Discussing programming nightmares with my classmates (one of them said he dreamed that he shot the instructor, and then a miniature version of the instrucor came out of the bullet hole and said, "IT NEVER ENDS." :rofl: Symbolic AND weird!)
-Alternating between taking sips of coffee and water
But the characters are so terrible. Bella is a whining girl with first-world problems who needs to get over herself, and is so psychotically unstable she welcomes the attentions of a stalker who breaks into her house and watches her sleep, and then asserts herself for the first time in the series by defending her foetus *which will probably kill her*.
My problem is not so much that she's a hateful character with no redeeming features who should be pitied and lampooned in equal measure - though to me she is - but rather that she is presented with the assumption that *every girl should be like this*. It's deeply disturbing.
What I want to see is a Twilight parody written in the Free Indirect Style, so that we get to see into the protagonists's warped, selfish worldview but we also get the disapproving gaze of a responsible narrator. This book would not have to parody or exaggerate the events of Twilight *in the slightest* to be totally hilarious and scathing.

Oh wait...
I think I dislike Kristen Stewart almost as much as the character she plays. :P And I hate what Twilight advocates and the not-so-subtle Mormon influences and the mass-indoctrination of stupid girls everywhere and the completely-accurate-for-a-teenage-relationship-but-certainly-not-ideal-and-definitely-not-something-desirable power dynamics.

True... but we'd probably also want to get Meyer's work on rewriting the first book from Edward's perspective and incorporate that.

tonight,
-trying to decide between normal-ish night or staying up all night for a lit review or setting an alarm for like 4am to get up and work on the lit review :S
-apparently watching stuff with the roommates instead
-Listening to Katherine Jenkins's song,"Break It To My Heart". I'm so glad I got back into Dancing With The Starts this season. She has a lovely voice.
-Chilling after a hectic few weeks from trips galore
-Installing updates to Windows
-Having text conversations with 3 different people
-Contemplating: coffee again before work? Do I need another mocha?
(probably)
-Watching/listening to hercrabbiness' Lets Play of Laura Bow 2: The Dagger of Amon Ra.
-Trying to work on chapter 3 of KQ5:AMTHGY! in Microsoft Word.
I remember her LP of The Colonel's Bequest, but I don't think I knew about her Dagger of Amon Ra playthrough. I'll need to look that one up. :D
-Watching Big Bang Theory with my mom
-Being worried about a blog I'm working on. A contributor doesn't appear to be contributing. :-\
-Also wondering where exactly my dogs collar is. He apparently must have slipped it off somehow. This has happened once before, but luckily I was able to find in the backyard. Now, I can't seem to find it anywhere!

-Suddenly remembering a weird ass dream I had last night. Something about a huge house with all these kids having a party, and someone was hiding on the roof waiting to murder them all...? (Hunger Games undertones there. I still have nightmares about the Hunger Games books. They were spectacular, but deeply frightening to me.)
-Waiting for more people to get here so they can explain to me what I missed yesterday in class. (From what I hear it was very exciting--we're learning how to make our very own objects! XD)
-Excited: since it's Star Wars Day I have an excuse to watch Return of the Jedi!
You put most of the things away. You can't expect them to be able to clean if there are clothes and books and things everywhere. :) They usually only do vacuuming/dusting/mopping etc.
-working on litreview (5 pages + references: woo!!)
-thinking I might have had a slight breakthrough in the SGR B2 modelling... also known as "why isn't this done yet?"

Ah. I've never had a cleaning lady. :)
-Sneezing
-Chatting
-Drinking
-being sad, lonely, and annoyed for various reasons:
annoyed because there's a +25% XP bonus this weekend in DDO and I can't just spend the weekend attached to my desktop playing DDO :P, sad b/c Deloria is all hurty and thus not around and thus also why I'm lonely--though lonely has more to do with my borderline non-existent love life too
-watching a roommate play FF7
-deciding whether or not to head out to Limerick for a violin lesson :-X
-being divided on the former b/c 1) the trips to Limerick always remind of the expenses which I'm taking to learn the violin and 2) I feel I should be attached to my office computer until I finish at least my lit review if not also my report
-Trying to think of a good prologue to my Quest for Glory story, having just woke up from a nap.
-Talking to my wonderful and utterly perfect and irresistible (etc) boyfriend. :)

- Feeling a bit unproductive as I have exams in less than two weeks and didn't get very much done today.
- Feeling extremely happy because a play I wrote has been shortlisted for a prize and might win :D And I think this is the first writing competition that I've entered and got some kind of credit for since... highschool, I think.
-having chocolate chip cookies, oreo truffles, and coffee for breakfast :D
-internally debating when/whether-or-not to go into the office :-\ (it's a Saturday and I'd much rather play video games, but I also need to finish the stupid postgrad review/report thing so I can do actual work of which it seems my adviser is bringing back a considerable amount)
-about to get up and go get an Irish cellphone...
-knowing that later I have to contact my parents and let them know that someone else claimed my cellphone from Bus Eireann's lost and found :-\
Don't do it. :( They'll make you miserable. :(
-Snuggling with a very, very happy cat. I suspect she killed something. :D

Capoeira!
Okay, so, my questions:
- Are you taking/learning Capoeira? Or watching someone else's test/belt ceremony?
- Have you ever gone to one before (in either case)?

I'm learning Capoeira. Our instructor is being very hush-hush about who's advancing in belt this time.
I had my first batizado in October last year. :)
-Playing Zoo Tycoon 2
-Letting my money on the game build up, so I'm checking the forum while it does so. (If only t'were that simple in real life.)
-Sleepy, thinking about bedtime soon.
*nods* If only it were that simple in real life.
-Wondering where our Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 disk is (since Hailey mentioned Zoo Tycoon.) Brother and I loved those games when we were younger.
-returning from my Capoeira event
-going through and liking things on facebook that I missed because I was incommunicado for the weekend
-wishing Deloria would respond on gmail :(
-otherwise also catching up on the internet
-thinking of looking into this whole cream cheese desserts idea *nods*
-Going through tissues like a madman because of sick
-Doing research for a job interview tomorrow
-Hoping I don't sound sick over the phone tomorrow..
-Dammit I need to get research done for that graduate thesis too
-thinking about/worrying about Deloria
-having a difficult time with my own issues at the moment too... :(
-listening to Vitamin String Quartet cover pop/rock/etc. songs in ways that make them AMAZING :D (Linkin Park at the moment, but Rise Against next methinks)
-running models and doing science for a change MEIN GOTT--what will I do next!? :P

...which by the way is horrible for my work ethic... it makes me want to go home and practice the violin. :yes: ::)
-Trying to figure out MS Access and getting quite pissed
-Listening to my fellow geeks listen to music
-Also listening to one of my fellow geeks get all high and mighty that someone else doesn't know who Iron Man is
The point of having a secret identity is that people don't know it. :P I think he should be lauded for playing along. :P
XD @ Deloria
-being at home
-deciding to go to Capoeira tonight (in about an hour :-X)
-thinking about today
