So I just asked to join the precon league, but something interesting occured to me immediately after. What if Photon and I had to play each other? This normally wouldn't be a problem unless I end up with cards I don't physically own. Bleh.
The two of us have talked about her issues. Her idea is that when she goes off I am supposed to tell her to shut up. Seems to work most times. But does not actually help her, no more than to just draw her attention to what she is doing. While it is a start it really is not beneficial and I feel like an Ass telling her to shut up.
Whoops! Slight misunderstanding here, I think. I didn't mean to imply that she was a piece of garbage in what I said there but more that if case B was more true than case A then what I just said made no sense... and then there's always the case I'm misunderstanding what you're saying now which is even worse and we should just forget i said this since I seem to make an ass of myself all the time...
But in any case, I wish you the best in figuring out what the right thing to do is for sure. I have a hunch of what you're already gonna do but I'm not gonna jump the gun and guess.
Eh, it's ok for now. I understand how school can go. Just hope you can get it going by the end of this month.
Anyways, how is my current look. Im using until charlie is arsed to finish my set
I might arrange the colours a bit again
@starr. I hope everything clears up soon Does telling you that i sent you the oracles and think twices cheer you up?
<3 you guys, I wish I knew why I was such a crap magnet. I hope I have made the right decision, tubal ligation is very difficult to reverse, but I don't ever want the ambiguity of the possibility of children tearing at my conscience, or that of any future relationships. It's just not meant to be. I can barely handle my own life, and the reality is that I couldn't hope to give a child what they need, even if they're normal, which is no guarantee because of my family history.
This reminds me, I should probably go fix lunch. It's almost 3pm here and I haven't eaten since 7:45 this monring and I'm getting punchy.
@snoop: Ill pray for you too and everyone else thats going through tough times. We will all get through this together.
@ungenni: of course we will make your friend feel welcome remember you have Cecilia in here who was one of the two regulars that won the shadowfox hospitality award. Im sure you will be fine ungenni just stay on top of it and im sure you will do very well.
@ethersphere: nice avy and banner!
@alacar: have a great day at work and best wishes to you alacar!
@shin: yeah i agree i dont think saying shut up to her is going to make things better but in fact it'll make things worse down the road. I would probably try to find more time to spend more time with your gf scott and always do your best to comfort her in any possible way you can.
@joyd: wow there is definetly some amazing things to see and watch on youtube. I remember my step dad showing me a cat flushing the toilet repeatedly because the cat was wondering where the water was going lol it was amazing to watch im going to see if i can get the link to share it with all of you.
Well anyways im going to get going for awhile see you all soon! i will be on aol messenger and msn if anyone wants to chat with me. *hugs and blows kisses to everyone* take care and best wishes to everyone!
So we went shopping this morning for our scrumptious trout dinner tonight, along with Dreia's yummy alfredo and linguine noodles!
It was great to see Ryan this morning.. we were all cute and romantic, and best part is he just now called me to wish me luck on my test, and just to wish me a Happy Valentines Day again..... How adooorable he issss... He deserves all the hard work I've been puttin into this gift...
As for me, WISH ME LUCK on my test in half an hour... I'm so scared.. *whimper* At least I only need to endure 2 1/2 more hours of schoolstuff until Ryan and I are together and being romantic and whatnot...
We're going to cook dinner together, go see the movie Painted Veil, then heading back to my room to give him my present and such! Woohoo!!
If I could do more I would, but prayers and thoughts at the least I'd be more than happy to give. I just wish you had some way of getting out of the environment you are in, as that might improve your situation somehow. I really, really hope you can get a job soon. I know how bad it can be looking for a job and not being able to find one, but I'm sure it's even worse when you're living by yourself.
I hate to hear that your relationship with your boyfriend is suffering because of the distance. That's terrible news, I was hoping that you two would still be okay in spite of all of this.
In any case, I pray all goes well for you and that you get the break you need.
Quote from Ninja Pirate »
@Mamelon: Thanks for offering your help last night. But really I'm totally okay.
You're welcome. Let us know if you ever do want to talk.
@Me: I was called off of work again today because of the ice and snow. Man, the weather's really terrible here. Hopefully it will be better by tomorrow.
I find it funny that my blog still has a lot of views, but my last two entries haven't gotten many comments. Not trying to complain, really, I just think it's kind of funny. I didn't expect to have that many views in the first place.
Quote from Kraj »
No, I never did. Though I had several relationships that didn't work out for one reason or another, I'm happy to say I've been lucky enough to never have been caught up in a seriously bad relationship like that.
Well that's good. I guess I haven't had that many relationships, so maybe I don't know.
Quote from Shin" »
I have never been actually angry at her until this point. And I am sick of her little fits she goes on, which often result in things broken because she is incapable of thinking or seeing clearly when she goes off. I am as supportive as I can and give her all I can, but I can only help someone who is ultimately wanting to help themselves.
I'm sorry that you're having this problem, Shin'. I hope this can be worked out in the long run, or that whatever happens, it turns out however is best for you. *hugs*
Quote from Ethersphere »
I have to admit, I'm very paranoid about our bills myself. Whenever the power bill gets here I go all livid until Josh opens it and then it's alright. We've been living paycheck to paycheck for a while, and only recently has it gotten better, but due to certain circumstances I think it's going to be hard again. So yeah...I hate the mail >_<;;
If you're worried because I'm not making as much money as I used to, don't be. Everything will be fine.
Quote from Joyd »
This is the best cat piano video on youTube, but this one has some nice sounds at the end. (The first one is extremely adorable. It made we want to cry. Also, if you watch piano cat videos on youTube, you'll notice that most of them are british cats. I do not know why.)
Nora, Piano Cat! That's so cute.

Love,

We try to spend more time together...and sometimes it helps...but generally I find I actually don't have much in common with her anymore and get bored. Watching movies together...great. Hanging out for extended periods and talking, I don't find anything she says intresting anymore. We are on different levels and have different intrests.
Wow! there's so much to read that I can't even remember what I was going to reply to. Even right now as I'm typing this loaded garbage (:p) my mind is going crazy cause I can only remember one thing to respond too, and I can't fully even remember the situation that was going on.
@Shin: Life is not a smooth road. You have speed bumps, curves, and things that tend to walk out into the road into your way. I see this situation as just a speed bump that you two can get over. Maybe, I don't know the whole story (seeing that I can't even remember it all!!), but don't let the speed bump make your car tip over. Don't make the curves sway you off the edge of the cliff. You two can get through this and still be in love at the end of the road. Just watch out for any animals that may come out in the road and don't let them make you swirve off the road into the the dark forest below.
okay, maybe I reacted too deeply to this, but I'm being serious. i hope you understand my whole meaning to this and that I'm not just typing all this up for you to go "What the heck?!". If you don't get it, then don't worry. Everything will be fine between you two.:smileup:
So, Valentines Day was......bittersweet. I got a nice little bunch of Valentine's day cards from some of my friends. One of the cards that touched me was the Valentines card from my friend Lyndsay. She basically said, I'm awesome and that I'm very goofy but that it's a good thing because it's what made me become friends with her, Alex, Beth, Brittany, and more. I wanted to tear up but I didn't.:heart:
Then, my other friend Beth (nicknamed Ebby), gave me a chocolate rose today to eat at lunch, because I love chocolate. I gave her a big hug.
But, there was this very weird AVID meeting we had today and it was.......weird. That's all i'll say.
Then, some of my friends got Behavior Mods due to the fact that they accidentally went to lunch early (because some of them went to Choir and they drop off their stuff then go to the cafeteria). It was a misunderstanding at a point, but they still got it. One of my goody-goody friends, Melissa, got one and she started to cry because she'd have to tell her parents about it. It broke my heart. Yes, maybe it's just a Behavior Mod, but parents these days expect a lot out of us at things, and behavior mods or things worse can set them off.
...and I'm out of work. <yawn> I was so tired during those 2.5 hours. I dunno why. It doesn't seem long.
Anyway..
*hugs Cecilia and Starr*
Good luck on your test, Omna!
*Waves to Suki*
Chances are good that a special Valentine's edition of Geek Mp3 will be uploaded this evening.
FL: Don't worry about Future Vision--it's going to be released right alongside Tnisk. This is doubling my workload, which is already put on the backburner until I can find time for it.
@shin: well im glad you two are making an effort though.
@mamelon: *blushes* thanks mamelon! Yeah i didn't expect to get very many views either because i didn't think i was that known on here I thought i would get like at least 100 views at the very most.
@alacar: hugs alacar back* how was your day?
See you all soon! *hugs and blows kisses to everyone*
I'm good, Cecilia. I'm just glad that, for the most part, my day is done. I just want to go home now. *huggles*
Also.. those stats are neat. I'd have to scour all of the old threads to tally who got what cookies. I'll give a to anyone who does that I tallied up the # of posts I've had on the House threads once, and they equal like 55% of all my posts on MTGS. That is A LOT.
Wish my judge would render his decision on my FCC entry..

Yeah well thats great that your doing well and im very glad. *huggles back*
Okay well its time for me to do the dishes now before my mom comes home. Ill see you all soon. Ill be on aol messenger and also msn if anyone wants to talk to me. See ya all later and take care everyone! *hugs and blows kisses*
Oh yeah.. Kevin reminded me of something: My Precon League deck, Domain, needs a lot of work. A LOT of work. If I had a pool of all the cards in Magic, I'd make a deck like this:
Cecelia: If you would like to talk to me sometime, you can contact me on aim or msn. I always feel uncomfortable adding new people without them knowing I'm going to though. *hugs back*
Alacar: I'd give you 10 cookies and a glomp if you tallied up who got what cookies :p. I wish Bel would judge mine too, but more than likely he's sleeping right now as he's from England ;).
EDIT: Speaking of cookies, Cecelia gets another for post 1200 :cookie:.
Ugh... I just spent the last hour scouring http://www.animepaper.net for good images of Greed from FMA, only to find none. I ended up just pulling out my own copy of FMA and taking screenshots from eps 33-34. What a waste of time. I have the materials to make a banner now, so I'm gonna go take a shower and then come back get to work.
What a lousy day off today has been. I haven't been able to get up to WSU for three weeks now due to the weather. On top of that, my brothers are home from school because of snow, so I have to put up with them, and one of them always wants on the net. Family can be nice, but sometimes you just want to have a day to yourself.

Or something like that. I'm a long way from that, though.. Still, I hope I can get CLOSE to it. Its record is 0-2 in matches so far, 1-4 in games.
awww im so sorry i feel bad now winning against your domain deck with rats nest. *hugs* alacar. I admit it was still a tough matchup though i believe the 2nd and 3rd game could went either way though.
@koolkoal: okay cool that sounds awesome!
See you all soon! *hugs and blows kisses to everyone*
That sucks, Mr. Stuff. A bad day off can be a huge disappointment, since they often feel far apart, and help you get through the rest of the week.
I sure hope the weather gets better.

*waves* Hey, Kevie!
*waves back* Im on aol messenger right now if you want to chat a little with me if not though see you soon.:) *hugs mams* Yeah i hope so too because we all need to make a living by making money. I am sure it will clear up sometime soon though.
With the money thing I was mostly referring to us paying almost a hundred dollars more a month for rent, so yeah. I mean, in the end it isn't a big deal but when it comes to money I'll worry about anything.
I'm about to embark on a potentially rewarding, but just as potentially annoying task. Josh is starting up a Star Ocean-ish campaign soon using d20 Modern and all the associated hoopla, and he wants to use Incarnum. So, being the resident Incarnum freak (and if you're a D&D player and don't know what Incarnum is, shame on you), I've taken it upon myself to convert a couple of the base classes into d20 Modern/Future/Past style Advance classes. It should be easy enough, considering I design base classes for fun, but still.
I seriously can't wait until my boy is home tomorrow. Today has been such a bore.
Magic of Incarnum is a rather small supplemental book released around last year (maybe earlier) that is an alternative to both magic and psionics. It basically revolves around three things; soulmelds, chakra, and essentia. A character with an Incarnum class or abilities opens his chakra (seven in all, with a totem chakra available to a certain class) and shapes soulmelds to them. These soulmelds are basically a small collection of spell-like abilities that are granted to the character and grow different and/or stronger with the investment of essentia, a small pool of points that are never used up. It's actually a really fun and potentially powerful system, but I guess other players didn't get behind it. Only the MoI book itself and a small section of Cityscape are devoted to Incarnum. This sucks, because I greatly enjoy the system.
The two of us have talked about her issues. Her idea is that when she goes off I am supposed to tell her to shut up. Seems to work most times. But does not actually help her, no more than to just draw her attention to what she is doing. While it is a start it really is not beneficial and I feel like an Ass telling her to shut up.
I have alot to think about honestly.
I wanna go home.. It's freezing cold outside.. it was so cold and snowy last night that the garbage can wouldn't open when I took the trash out!
Later folks. Be good while I'm away!

<3 you guys, I wish I knew why I was such a crap magnet. I hope I have made the right decision, tubal ligation is very difficult to reverse, but I don't ever want the ambiguity of the possibility of children tearing at my conscience, or that of any future relationships. It's just not meant to be. I can barely handle my own life, and the reality is that I couldn't hope to give a child what they need, even if they're normal, which is no guarantee because of my family history.
This reminds me, I should probably go fix lunch. It's almost 3pm here and I haven't eaten since 7:45 this monring and I'm getting punchy.
Guh, it really is 3pm already. Days like this go by way too quickly and I never have the chance to actually do anything.
