POSTCARDS.
( Hopefully this is far enough in advance that I won't procrastinate. )

By "postcards," I mean "Holiday cards," and by "Holiday cards" I mean "Christmas cards." I'd really like to send a few out this year, since I'm generally horrible at showing how much I appreciate all of you good fellows out there-- and it also just sounds like a fun and interesting opportunity to brighten up somebody's blizzardy cold season (or warm, slightly rainy season, depending on where you live).

So if you could, leave your address here! Comments are screened, so no worries there. I've.... never done these before, so all I can guarantee is something that you'll most likely roll your eyes at. Why you're rolling your eyes, exactly, I'm not sure. And don't go assuming that you're bothering me by giving me your address. I want to. ):

Soooo thank you, everybody. ♥ I hope to get these to people before Christmas, but it may be more of a... New Year's card. Unfortunately.

FUCK YEAH FRIDAY.

LET'S GIVE IT UP FOR FRIIIIDAAAAYYYY.

The best day of the week, hhhhg. ♥



So, yes! My life has been slowly shaping itself back into sorts. Our exchange student, Michelle, was amazing. Awkward at first - we have no common interests at all (she's sportsy and slightly boy-crazy, for example) - but she was super super nice and it all worked out in the end. <3 I think she was a nice break, since there've been major tensions all over my family and. Yes. The only bad thing was that... half-way through her stay, while my dad was walking my dog, my dog got hit by a car. Pelvis was completely crushed. They had to put him down.

And the worst thing about losing a big pet like a dog is the emptiness a house gets without it around. Very strange to come home with only the cat's food dishes out and not have a boundlessly energized dog to yell at. Still strange.

But, well. That was three weeks ago. And tensions are high everywhere (sister going through with her divorce, other sister's husband is out of a job with two kids to take care of, parents fighting, etc etc etcetra) but. But! It is smoothing out. Or so I hope. At least, I feel like it's not effecting me too badly. Which is probably unhealthy, considering, but I'm in too good of a mood to really mind. Had a really, really bad week some time back there, with everything crashing in, BUT I AM ABOVE WATER and cheesy metaphors aside, feeling very fine.

Drawing lately, which is fun. Things turning out satisfyingly, even more fun. Friends have their act together. I've gotten better at keeping in touch with the people I want to. Books are being read. European History is badass and interesting. Slated to learn French next semester and joining an unofficial extra class that'll teach me Hmong. (X RP-world is going very nice: decided (for now, I hope this decision stays, sob) that hey. Backtagging is fine. People can wait for ten minutes. This decision occasionally makes me feel guilty, but-- I really do want to roleplay! I'm just slow, since I typically work through 40-50 notifs a day. Need time to penetrate that. Aaand on that favorite topic of mine, I got back into roleplaying China a few days ago and ahhhasgnkh I forgot how much of a favorite muse he was of mine. ♥ His voice was... slightly wobbly, but the kinks are being worked out. He's such an old man in SC, I don't even know.

Only lamentation is that I'm probably too busy to join another game, no matter how much I'm tempted. I miss playing an obnoxiously talkative character. Allen's fun, but he doesn't get near what I need for him in SP. Ehh, well. Separate issues.

Unsure if I'm gaining weight or if this is muscle. :I Hrm.

Need to: maybe start Mass Effect this weekend? and finish P3. and watch Soul Eater or more Doctor Who. none of these things will get done.

In conclusion! Parents are gone for the weekend. C8 Everything had better go perfectly, as I plan it to.


-- AH WAIT WAIT WAIT

okay.

if you are 5'3" and 120 pounds, you are not obese.

any nurse that says you are should be pronounced a witch and in cahoots with the devil. maybe even pretend-burned at the stake.

no wonder the statistics say we're getting fat, if that's the standard they're going by. good god.

Amélie is a hands-down amazing movie. I might be kind of late to the picture on that one, but I also juuust watched Zombieland last night, so. Both are good. Both are incredibly amazing. )8 Though I wouldn't put them on the same level at all, fff no.

But yeah that, along with To Wong Foo, Thanks For Everything, and 2012 was my night yesterday. Ahh, movie marathons. We don't stick to a main theme at all.

Aaand I just realized I left Mass Effect over at my friend's house. Sigh. I think I'm just not meant to play that game.

A new pet peeve: getting facebook updates. forever. forget you, facebook.

Uum.

Goddang, when did it become August. Seriously. I kind of want to get back into school, but I'm going to miss all of this free time so much hhhg. Next week is a Soul Eater and Doctor Who marathon with my friend, for however many days that takes.

Right uh. I'm just. Going to put this next part down.

My sister's in her separation period (90 days? 6 months? we don't know) with her husband. :/; Divorce, yeah. And I... only feel vaguely annoyed and angry over it, so no one say that they're sorry. She's a bloody moron, having only been with him two years and breaking up because she feels like she missed out on the ~single life.~~ Shut the fuck up and sit back down, girl. You should've known this was going to be a permanent thing when you accepted the ring (we take marriage pretty seriously in my family, what can I say). It makes me mad that her husband can't really say no, since he's... idk, I don't want to say love, but he's about as committed to her as a guy can get. Which is amazing, because my sister is someone people normally can't get along with for more than a week. I MEAN I LOVE HER A LOT but god she's a bitch. And by "bitch" I mean "she's a real life tsundere, and real life tsunderes aren't all they're cracked up to be."

That turned out a bit longer than I wanted. errr.

so yeah yesterday morning, before the movies, was spent distracting my other sister. tension levels are high.

On the other hand, my brother's been loaning out his trailer for underaged people to come and smoke joints. When my mother and I went to drop off the dog for a few days when we went up to my Aunt's, we got to chase out two STD-ridden sweaty mongrels. They ran so fast and were so terrified that they left their stash of pot behind. )8 Really, really shitty quality pot.

And I was the one who had to carry it all, so the animals at my aunt's ranch went nuts whenever they caught a whiff of my hands. My mom was freaking out, but I'm kind of just "eh" on this topic, too. Haha, my loyalty to my brother. )X;;; My main proposal was just 'let's call the cops and get him in jail. maybe he'll finally learn something.' because. I can't even bring myself to care about his dumbfuckery any more. Not that I... ever really did in the first place. I know he's slow (uh, literally), but his personality and ~need to be cool~ just makes me not care. Call it ingrained from being a part of high school. Or just call it my apathy acting up.

...

Yep.
