Well I am glad I can make you smile somehow Nai, and if you ever want to see how big of a smile I can give just drop me a PM :-D
On sex/making love. To me love and sex are completely different unrelated things. They definately can be better together, but to me sex is just good fun.
@ethersphere: sure that would be fine just pm me whenever you see me on here. I can't play right now unfortunetly since i have to get ready for work. However i dont have work tommorrow so we can play some then if you want. Have a great day ether and best wishes to you and photon!
@Nai: sure nai that would be great. Have a good day nai and goodluck with your studies.
Well I am going to go get ready for work ill be back in like 9 or 10 hours from now. See you all soon! *hugs and blows kisses to everyone* Take care everyone!
@ Mr Stuff: About Studio Ghibli, haven't they recently released a new movie? With racoons or something?
I'm pretty sure you're thinking of Pom Pocco, the Miyazaki film where the tanuki (raccoon dogs) try to save their forest from being destroyed or something. It's been out for a good while.
However, checking that, I just saw that they released a movie called Tales from Earthsea, the first work directed by Hayao Miyazaki's son , Goro Miyazaki. It's based on the Earthsea novels by Ursula K. Le Guinn. I MUST see it. Like, ASAP.
This is the first part of a series, and the rest is available on DVD or VHS for five payments of $9.99!
And guess who you call to order it? ME!
Me:
"Hello, thank you for calling. I'd be happy to get the DVD or VHS of our series out to you. How can I help you?"
Woman:
"Do you believe in witchcraft?"
Anyway...
I just got back from getting the oil changed and everything in the van so it's ready for the drive up to WSU tomorrow. This may be my last time going up there, so I'm gonna go out of my way to party as hard as possible. By that, I don't mean drinking, of course. I'm thinking more along the lines of a case of Mountain Dew: Code Red and watching anime, playing video games, and playing magic until my eyes fall out of my head.
Tonight I'm just gonna relax and take the night off. Haibane Renmei's getting pretty good, so I might watch some more of that.
I've given our new apartment its first thorough cleaning since we moved in...and I'm not even done. Josh has a lot of clothes in a lot of bags and baskets, and some of it just can't stay around. Our closet looks like it's going to explode outward any minute now, and I want everything nice and organized. So everything that I find tonight that I haven't seen on a body in long enough is getting thrown in the basement for now and given to Goodwill later. This includes all the clothes I had before I gained weight ¬_¬;;
@Alacar: Meh, same as always, I guess. Dissension is really the only set that has the kind of cards I'm looking for at the moment. Once I change my deck a little, maybe I can get something else.
You'll probably want Apocalypse too. GU is good there.
I always like your work. In fact, you were the first designer I encountered here whose work really made me go "Wow!".
So.. when did I make you go "Wow!"? Or have I made you at all?
Sex and making love: I agree with Sakura--sex is sex is sex, and it's great fun if it's consensual. Making love with (with, not to, like Nai said) the person you love is something far more meaningful and precious than sex. Sure the act of sex is involved (that's like, the main deal), but there's a little more to it that makes it special. The fun before, and the glow after is what makes it love.
Work wasn't bad today. I have the rest of the day to chill out and pass out PCL packs.
What does everyone else want? I want to get 3 Fifth Dawn this week.
So.. when did I make you go "Wow!"? Or have I made you at all?
Fishing for compliments, eh? I'll oblige.
Like I've said before, the way Academy block struck a chord with the community definitely wowed me. Custom card sets generally are animals that only their owner pays much attention to, but Academy managed to generate a surprising amount of enthusiasm. If I were to seriously commit to my own custom set project I would study that page of your book, my friend.
On the topic of sex versus making love: I've never been uncomfortable with the term "make love to" but I do reserve it for very specific circumstances. I agree that sex and love are two very seperate things, but I do think that the two can apply in tandem and the result is lovemaking. Even with someone you love, most of the time sex is about the fun; that's sex (or any of the various other terms one could substitute). But sometimes, sex is a physical expression of your love for someone, of your desire to make them (not you) feel good, of the emotional connection. That is making love.

Kraj, I think it was a big success because of the Coffeehouse, really. I drew the House in because I had people IN the sets (Omna, Arguas, Photon, Mamelon, Yukora), and I had active playtesting and an actual BLOCK you could play with on MWS.
But that's part of it, really. It's also a lot of luck and a lot of skill, and a lot of patience.
I have a meeting with HR tomorrow concering my Leave of Absence and other options.
Good luck with that!
you've definitely given me hope for my own issues, Sakura ^ >^

On another note, anyone here read the webcomic Something Positive?
I've checked it out a few times, but it's not on my (~30 comic) regular rotation. It -should- be the kind of humor I'm really into, but it just doesn't resonate with me really.
I would like to play a precon league game today if anyone's up.
Similarly, Regular of the Week is coming. Hold yer horses.
Ack, you've reminded me that I still need to do Anime of the Week tonight. I'd almost forgotten, what with watching the second episode of Galaxy Angel Rune. That's enough to drive just about everything else out of one's head.
I'll put it up when I get home. No telling when that may be, though, since I'm waiting on something to download before I go home. In the meantime, I'm watching ep3 of GA: Rune. My brain will have a deathwish against me pretty soon, if it doesn't already. It hurts... But it's a good kind of hurt.
Edit:
@Joyd - I can, I guess. I just need to swap my deck around. Give me a few minutes.
Ugh. I just got home from, technically, my first day of work. It was alright, but it doesn't seem like something I'd stay at. I'm going to keep looking for another job. I know it sounds odd that I'm already looking for another job, but you know.
This job is semi-far so, unless I have use of the car, I'd have to take a few buses to get there and at 8AM, that isn't exactly a good thing. Because I've done it before.
For now, I'm probably going to keep at it for a day or so and hopefully by then something else will come up. I'm gonna relax for the rest of the night. I'll still be around, so feel free to IM me or something if you want to talk.
@Sex vs. Making Love: It depends on what you feel is important during a sexual experience. RickCorgan said he doesn't think about love during sex. I think that most people don't really think at all during sex, they mostly feel. Which types of feelings they want to experience most will vary from person to person. Some care most about pleasurable sensations, but some derive more enjoyment from the emotions that are part of the experience.
For instance, someone being more physically attractive really wouldn't make sex feel better. However, there might be a psychological association, feeling more aroused because of visual stimulation and how you perceive the person. In many ways, enjoying the emotional aspect of sex is similar to this, I think. The feelings you have as a part of having sex, and how they are expressed, can go a long way in creating a significant and enjoyable experience. Even if it's just having sex for fun or casual bonding.
For me, there'd have to be emotional significance and a strong element of trust in sex, or I wouldn't be interested. Moreover, there would be emotional significance, even if I didn't want there to be. I understand myself well enough to know that it'd be very unlikely for me to be able to do something like have sex with someone and not have feelings about it/them afterward.

@mamelon: Have a great day today mamelon and i hope your day at work will turn out really great for you. Best wishes to you and your futuristic goals me and others will be right behind you! *hugs mamelon* see you soon!
Hope you have a great night and day tomorrow, Kevin. When do you work next, I wonder?
All that I yearn for, for richer or poorer, is to be the light that you see. All that I yearn for, for richer or poorer, is to be the peace that you feel. All that I yearn for, for richer or poorer, is to fill your heart on my own.
But the rainbow is an image of hope for many reasons, as it is a brilliant sight coming out of oftimes dismal weather.
Alright, I've been here for far too long. I'm going home now, and *possibly* putting up the AOTW tonight. If not, then unfortunately it may not show up until Friday night, since I'll be busy partying with my friends at WSU the next two days. See ya later, minna-san.
All i can say is that strongbad will enjoy even though i really hated his card
(no offence there...i just really hated it :))
Lol, um, thank you?? I realize why you don't like the card; I wasn't too sure about it myself. But I don't think it is as broken as you said it is (although I didn't really understand some of your arguments). The card gets shuffled back in your library after you use it, so if you want it to be better than Entomb (meaning 2 cards) you have to pay 6 mana overall, which will not be until at least turn 4. Anyway, I shouldn't complain too much, considering I won. Thanks FL :).
@sex/making love: I'm trying really hard not to get really mad at people who say that love is just for fun and you don't need to love the person. I won't go too much into it, but I believe that God created sex specifically to be between a wife and a husband, meaning two people that love each other. I believe that when two people have sex, it makes an invisible bond between them, which, when broken, hurts both people extremely. To me, it is an abuse of God's amazing gift when people have sex nonchalantly and they don't actually love each other. Anyway, that's my view on the subject.
So anyway, I've got this big Math Assessment thing due tomorrow, which is pretty much an essay on a math problem. Plus, I have a huge chemistry test that I need to study for. Unfortunately, I just ran 8 miles in 75 degree weather, so I am completely dead right now. I just have to hope that I can finish this with a little sleep.
Strong Bad.. when I'm talking about 'casual sex', I mean between two people who want it, and who have a strong enough connection with that person to feel safe with something so intimate. I don't really believe in having sex with strangers--I do believe in ****-buddies.
Regular of the Week coming, if I can manage to get around to it.
On sex/making love. To me love and sex are completely different unrelated things. They definately can be better together, but to me sex is just good fun.

No worries Nai. I play in a good way. I do like you, you are smart and sweet.
