Rianalnn...I sent you a PM but I left out the fact that I may have a shoal or two. I looked at the deck you're putting together and I was wondering if Twilight Drover would work in there? As a combo peice with Teysa? I know he's pretty light but he's easy to get and you could eventually protect him. He would also help your Council engine work.
Just a thought.
I think we should all go around and give a 2 line verse for this anthem describing what the Called is to them. Sounds cheesy but you can do it anyway you want.
"In the morning I can sit down and enjoy the drama unfolding as I sip my Java." "Some days the sparks fly with love and anger, on others the thread moves like lava."
There you go.....I have started something for pete's sake.....that Pete....he has a lot of sake you know!

Interviewer: So you worked at a scout camp huh?
Me: yup, nine years.
Interviewer: Cool, I did 12 myself.
Me: Really? I started at handicraft.
Interviewer: Wow, me too. Then I did scout craft for a few years.
Me: wow…so did I. I really liked the knots
Interviewer: right on! *high five*
Me: Then after I became a commissioner.
Interviewer: oh…me too O_o …for three years.

Yeeeeaaaaahhhh, So my cousin is playing this little language game on a basic English-Japanese translator calculator thing. Basically it gives most of a word and she needs to finish it. Example: Acquain_ance did you get it? Do you need a hint? It’s a “T”. Need another? How about: Therm_meter well? That’s an “O”. Cookies for those who know how to spell.
Sometimes we discuss what it may be, to help her get the English spelling. You know, because I am sooo good at spelling. Here’s a real toughie (all in spoilers to show its importance):

Save the drama for your mama, we've got enough of it. Take a look below the surface, we're a group that's tightly knit.
Yeah, I know it's retarded...but what we have here is, in my opinion, a tightly knit group if you look below the surface. Even the closest families have their fair share of drama. Why should we be any different?
oh, I was looking for rhymes, and found an interesting definition for nipple.
Definitions of nipple:
noun: the small projection of a mammary gland
name:A surname (very rare: popularity rank in the U.S.: #80518)
Emphasis was mine...You mean to tell me that there is someone running around with the name Nipple? Jeez, the only job that kid is destined for is porn star.
Sorry I haven't posted much the past few days. I've had a million things going on. Just thought I'd drop by and let you know I'm still breathing. I should be back tomorrow with a longer post.
As for the anthem: From the oldest pal to the newest friend We know we're all the same in the end.

Those are some cool lines. I'm not that good with words, and rhyming is kinda goofy to me... maybe I'm just not in the mood. I'll think about it.
One thing I know about us is that I don't think we'd have such drama, if we didn't care. It's not the kind of drama you find happening on a playground, for example. Ours comes because we actually have time and energy invested in each other. It's not usually spiteful and angry. It's often based in a sense of commitment and duty. But that's not for the anthem... it's just an observation.
I saw a female nipple in a crime scene photo on CSI New York tonight. Just thought I'd share.
My collection is dried out... it's basically ruined though. About 65% destroyed, including both moxes. Statistically, if I had had a third mox, it would have survived. Statistically.
Did you get the job, Chris?
* rancored_elf thinks it's interesting both Chrisses are having employement issues right now *
In the morning I can sit down and enjoy the drama unfolding as I sip my Java.
Some days the sparks fly with love and anger, on others the thread moves like lava.

That was the first interview of the day....second one was three hours later. But I am very creative, I am sure there is plenty to do with three hours of free time in downtown Osaka. ....Three hours of walking around the same block over and over (beats pacing) and the interview is ready......basic description? they promise me plus or minus 20 hours a week. I ask....so, is that like a range of 15-25? Nope, more like 15-20. Riiiiigggghhhhhttttt......

We should just submit this Cowboy Junkies' song as our anthem The stillness here,
like what he sometimes finds inside her,
hits so hard it can steal your breath forever
He sometimes wonders
is the sum of their lives together
him on the floor and her lost to a mind in tatters
These days he's drinking for the pleasure of falling
and he's falling for the pleasure of pretending
that she's sitting by the window waiting
for him to come calling
If I could fix me up a week of twilight hours
we'd sit on the point
and watch the sun continually flounder
Bathed in gold we'd plug into some kind of power
and connect with those days
back before all of this went sour
'Cause I'm drinking for the pleasure of falling
and I'm falling for the pleasure of pretending
that you're sitting by the window waiting
for me to come calling
Odd how the darkness always makes us whisper
and with the last of the sun
you can feel the approach of the winter
Now is the time of each day
that I Desperately miss her
I suppose I will learn how to live my life without her
So you're drinking for the pleasure of falling
and you're falling for the pleasure of pretending
that I'm sitting by the window waiting
for you to come calling
I met someone today that is soooo good for me. We have alot of the same interests, and we just seemed to click. What could go wrog, right? Well....It turns out that a good friend of mine of a couple of years was in an accident today. I was joking around about it, because I never believed that anything could go wrong. She was life-flighted to Hershey Medical Center. It's one of those hospitals that you never want to hear the name of. She passed away Thursday afternoon around 4:20-4:30 pm. I honestly have no idea of what to say. I mean, how can I just go to work tomorrow, and the next day, and the next....how can I function? Every event that makes me happy also brings pain. My aunt died on the 4th of july a couple years back. My uncle died the night before I was baptized. My pap died a week before Thanksgiving. And now I met someone that tryuly makes me happy, and I lose a very good friend. Not just a moving away, but permanent. She lived half a block from me....and I'll never be able to visit her again. It's like my heart was ripped out of my chest, and shredded into tiny pieces. And now, I must try to piece it together again. It is at a time like this that I must rely on the kindness and love of others, something that is not easy for me to do. But it is the love of others that will get my heart beating again.
I thank you all for letting me get that off of my chest. I don't mean to bring anyone down, but ya'll feel like a sorta disfunctional family to me, and this is something that you lean on your family for. Correct me if I'm wrong. I just wanted to explain why I may not be my happy go lucky self in the coming days.
That is a terrible thing. My heart goes out to you Chris, and the family of your friend. You will get through though. I had my childhood best friend die of a combination of alcohol and pain pills. He was so "low" that his heart just stopped. I was crushed! But I handle loss in a different way. I don't wish to push my philosophies on you but I see it as now I can talk to him anytime I want. Its free and he listens well. I can feel his advice when I ask it and I know that he is there with me when I need his insight.
I think you should turn to this new "light" in your life and grow from it. That is the best thing you can do and I bet that your friend would agree with that sentiment.
Drowning yourself in sorrow is good for you to do for a short period but you need to get out there and cleanse your mind with good things. And you are not allowed to feel guilty for doing so. Your guilt would do you and your friend a disservice.
Don't worry about the cards you sent me....we'll get things sorted out. Take the time to get yourself together and I'll see what I can find out.

I'm aweful at making up "anthems" and things like that. I sucked when we did this in a previous contest, and I still suck at it. Maybe we should just re-use our original one? I think this is like the third time we've done this for a contest. Damn, we've been around too long!
Very sorry to hear about your friend, Christopher. That's very tragic. Why so much loss? :(:(:(
We got snow for the third time this winter. There's a couple inches. It'll melt by this afternoon, I think.
@ Jonnski and r_e...thank you for your well wishes. Work was really hard today...I almost went into hysterics a couple of times, but I managed. I am pretty sure that the funeral is Monday. They are welcoming friends from 10am-2pm, and having the funeral right after. It is going to be a closed casket funeral. They wanted to have an open casket, but they said that it was impossible.:crying: Everytime I even think of that, I cry. I guess there are ALOT of details that everyone is keeping from me, because they don't think I can handle it. What am I a ****ing porcelain doll? I'm thinking of having my older sister sit down with me tomorrow after work and spilling it all....I need to hear it. I think. Maybe not. I dunno. On the lighter side of things...well...I got nothing. Let's move on.
Anyway, I don't know how much I'll be on tomorrow...or today, depending on where you are. I just...need peaceful sleep...I need....not pain nor hertache. I need...love.
Dang man, that really sucks. Go ahead and take time to grieve, you may need it. Just don’t go bottling it up inside. We’re here for you. There was an incident a few years back when my brother lost his best friend. My brother pushed his friends and family away and started working 80 hours a week. He would leave early in the morning and come home exhausted just to wake up and do it again. This went on for months. Really worried everyone around him….. It really sucks to deal with tragedies like this. Daggertooth

A few years ago, a good friend of mine, Heather was killed in a car crash while driving home. It was late, + had been snowing pretty hard all day, + she didn't have much of a chance when a DUI crossed the median + plowed into her car head on. It was entirely senseless, none of us knew what to do with the hole that was left of where she had been - she was finishing her last year at school + was going to move down to P-town to join up with the rest of us who had escaped Alaska. She was one of those super beautiful people, creative, funny. . . I scrapbooked what little photos I had of her, + tried to write it out of myself - I think it was easier for me, since I'd only known her about a year, it was hard seeing her sister Jen trying to explain to her 2-year old daughter that Auntie Heather wasn't going to be coming down after all.
I think we all just kept telling ourselves that she'd done what she had been meant to do, + that she was in a better place now, + she would be there for us any time we cared to think of her (listen to jj, he's right on).
Don't get too caught up in the pattern of Life - I am sure you have had many positive experiences that were not tied to negative ones, + vice versa. It can be hard to look past our own filters, though, I know. Chin up Lepre! I hope you get some closure on this, it must be hard feeling set aside by those in the know. I know we were all clamoring for every grisely detail after Heather left. . . + of course, the fellow who hit her survived with nary a scratch + a slap on the wrist. Fairness didn't even come into it, not that punishing anyone would have brought Heather back.
*big sigh*
ANYway. You got to keep on truckin'!
I just got back from a quick camping trip at Deep Creek down south a bit - saw many roos, a seal, buncha red + purple parrots, + a big lizard. Aurelia + I did a 10k hike around the bit of the park we were camping in - up + down coastal hills (a good measure of vertical rock climbing in there, not for the old folks yo! At one point I turned to face the sheer drop behind me + shouted "LOOK! I'M DAGGERTOOTH!!" :D). We were going to stay another night, but a ranger rocked up to us while we were at a lookout having a cup tea + said there will be a total fire ban going from midnight to midnight, + as the prospect of no hot brekkast OR coffee in the am + then driving home sounded dumb, we broke camp early. . . Probably going to be a scorcher tomorrow, it's 11:30pm right now + still damned hot.
Ah, jeez. *goes to dig out scrapbook + wonder for the millionth time what could have been*
WOW!!!!!! Nearly 24 freakin hours since the last post!?!?

Either its the sobriety or the screenplay... but I really haven't had a lot to say.
My computer has been crashing quite a bit lately. Its annoying. It seems to only do it Friday nights until late Saturday/early Sunday. Just when I need it most... wait, I practically live in front of the damn thing, nevermind. I think I know the problem, I'm just too lazy to fix it.
Daggertooth, I saw one of your posts on CPA earlier tonight. Why aren't you around there anymore? Unless you are and I've just missed the threads you post on.
I also don't have a lot to say. Most of what's going on for me is negative, and I'm sure everybody has had enough of my crap to last a year or more.
I'm still here, still running my business, doing my thing. Haven't been in the gym much due to time constraints, but will be tomorrow and tuesday also. Stopped dieting because stress was making it very hard and more stressful, but I'm not eating too poorly, maintaining the same weight.
I'm not sure what else to say. I was trying to think of a clan flag, and all I could think of was a big marijuana leaf. Yes, I realize that has nothing to do with our clan. Except that we love the :symg:.

Fairness didn't even come into it, not that punishing anyone would have brought Heather back.
*big sigh*
ANYway. You got to keep on truckin'!
I just got back from a quick camping trip at Deep Creek down south a bit - saw many roos, a seal, buncha red + purple parrots, + a big lizard. Aurelia + I did a 10k hike around the bit of the park we were camping in - up + down coastal hills (a good measure of vertical rock climbing in there, not for the old folks yo! At one point I turned to face the sheer drop behind me + shouted "LOOK! I'M DAGGERTOOTH!!" :D). We were going to stay another night, but a ranger rocked up to us while we were at a lookout having a cup tea + said there will be a total fire ban going from midnight to midnight, + as the prospect of no hot brekkast OR coffee in the am + then driving home sounded dumb, we broke camp early. . . Probably going to be a scorcher tomorrow, it's 11:30pm right now + still damned hot.
Ah, jeez. *goes to dig out scrapbook + wonder for the millionth time what could have been*

My computer has been crashing quite a bit lately. Its annoying. It seems to only do it Friday nights until late Saturday/early Sunday. Just when I need it most... wait, I practically live in front of the damn thing, nevermind. I think I know the problem, I'm just too lazy to fix it.
Daggertooth, I saw one of your posts on CPA earlier tonight. Why aren't you around there anymore? Unless you are and I've just missed the threads you post on.
Finally... I got nothing.
Later Called. Be strong Chris.
I'm still here, still running my business, doing my thing. Haven't been in the gym much due to time constraints, but will be tomorrow and tuesday also. Stopped dieting because stress was making it very hard and more stressful, but I'm not eating too poorly, maintaining the same weight.
I'm not sure what else to say. I was trying to think of a clan flag, and all I could think of was a big marijuana leaf. Yes, I realize that has nothing to do with our clan. Except that we love the :symg:.
.
We can't use that as our flag. Canada is already using that!

Fleeting is this world
Growth and decay its very nature
Things spring to being and again they cease
Happy the marvel of them and the peace.
