Mastema, I feel so lucky to have known you for a few years now - watching you, through Aetolia, get older is really cool. Same goes for other people I've known here for a while, like Aldric. I don't mean this in a creepy voyeuristic way! It's just...really cool to watch people who start this game young turn into adults.
@Seir: 'Of Mice and Men' has a mouse in it! It's crushed by Lenny, I believe.
@Rivas: Definitely read the book first, then watch the movie.
Also, love the new rp I've been getting lately. Stressful life suddenly doesn't feel so stressful anymore when I have a chance to escape to some fun in the game. Seriously. Thanks to all those who RP with me now. You have no idea how much it is appreciated.
@Elwyn flew in yesterday morning. Haven't gone out to do anything supper fun, but still having a great time. Today we're going to Phipps Conservatory and the National Aviary.
The end of the job I've been working for the past six months! Even though there was a laundry list of things I disliked about it, (most of) the people were really nice, and I got some very kind goodbyes today.
Cupcakes.
My first summer "off" in as long as I can remember!
That moment when you first catch sight of the person who's coming to take over for you at work. Waiting for them is like waiting for Santa Claus.

A bit of a mixed post about it. My brother's girlfriend didn't know she was pregnant until she started having contractions after weeks of stomach pains, at 4 months along. Her due date is November 1st.
Thankfully the doctors have stopped the premature labor and are preparing her for surgery, hoping the water and baby go back up so they can stitch the cervix up and prevent infection. She wasn't supposed to get pregnant for another 5 years but the IUD's .1% chance hit them.
Why this is mixed is because they shouldn't be having babies when they can't even take care of the one they have who is in my mother's care, now 3 years old just recently. I'll still be happy about it because its happening, and I'll love my niece or nephew no matter what. So for now, I'm going to pray that the things all go well with this one, since the last pregnancy, her and my nephew were both lucky to make it through alive. And that its an adorable redheaded girl.
I've recently adopted two bearded dragons, and while they are a bit expensive to be properly cared for, I am so in love with these guys! They're both different beautiful color morphs too.
This is my green/orange translucent (presumably) girl, and I've had her a little over a month now. She's 4 months and still nameless.

And this is my hypo citrus pastel male, 8 months. Named Gohan. I adopted him recently from a reptile expo. His previous owner was downsizing her reptiles, because she needed more room to breed crested geckos. He's the sweetest boy ever.
Cloud Atlas. I haven't had this emotional of a response to a film in a very long time. It was heartbreaking and life affirming and just...a lot of things. I would almost dare to say that the movie was better than the book.
This was a Walking Dead promotion that my brother's company, Telltale Games, was doing for their second installment of the Walking Dead video game. My brother being ^ guy was supposed to be the black Rick Grimes. I was invited for being a walking dead dork, and helping my brother grow the most epic facial hair over night with some vaseline and ground coffee beans.

@Illidan - man, that's how I did my hobo beard as a kid at halloween. Best costume ever, I got to wear my overalls, and my candy went into a hobo backpack of a bandanna on a stick.
When you start up randomRP with someone and then it lasts for 6+ hours. A really wonderful way to end a day.
THIS SO MUCH!
especially when it is follow up with
ESTEEM, OMG!
Making me feel more competent, appreciated and so much better at RP than I think it warranted. Lemme tell ya. Esteem makes my unicorning WEEK.
!!
Even when I first knew you I'd say that you were a pretty good RPer, and you've gotten a lot better over the years. I personal think you're pretty wonderful at it by this point. You just don't give yourself enough credit.

I'm at the airport waiting for Lin's player to land. One hour and counting down until one of my best friends is here to stay!
Few things more relaxing.

Is that a real gun? It looks kind of weird.
THIS SO MUCH!
