I celebrate that I don't feel like a walking dead after waking up, for once!

Oh, also, *cuddles bedmonster*

Celebrating: I got stung by a jellyfish!!! Very Happy

by Reffy Thu Jul 02, 2009 2:50 pm

Not sure that is some thing to celebrate ... but YAY you did find awesome jellyfish Very Happy

I celebrate the smart and intellectual youth of our future generations. I have a newfound appreciation for those whose ages I once considered to be overly young to write anything of a satisfying caliber. I am very surprised to see just how bright people can be though at these young ages. Perhaps, I am simply at fault for forgetting how I, myself, was when I was their age and how smart my peers were then. It's just so hard to remember looking back eight or so years ago. It just amazes me how very intelligent some kids are, and I only hope that my own child someday will grow up to mirror that.

I'm celebrating that my friend's fiance dumped him a week ago. Good for him, because she was a trashy whore. NO, she didn't cheat on him, but she acted like a trashy whore.

I'm supporting him hardcore though because he's super bummed. We even had a tribute last night till 2am at the bar. He ended up bowing to the porcelain gods for hours after. His mission was accomplished.

Wooo!

by **Kathryn Lacey** Thu Jul 02, 2009 8:03 pm

I celebrate that Jonathan is haltingly contemplating joining FoG for the Avatar role play. He said that if what we can come up with is good, he'll do it because it apparently looks like canons may be involved. ((He plays the best Zuko of anyone I've ever met in my life.)) I actually haven't gotten far enough in my email to get to the notification for that thread, though. XD

I hope your kids are just as intelligent as you and Tony, Fate.

by **Fate Flyer** Thu Jul 02, 2009 8:40 pm

Spectre - Well, good for your friend. The great thing in that situation is that at least it was called off before they ever actually got married. I hope that he is a much happier person now, and it sure sounds like you are helping support him through everything.

Kathryn - That'd be so wonderful! I've heard such great things about Jonathan and his role-playing from you, and I'd be delighted to see him in a RP, especially as Zuko in an Avatar role-play. Smile

Aww, and Kathryn... Aww

That was the sweetest thing...! Thank you. <3

by **Kathryn Lacey** Thu Jul 02, 2009 9:10 pm

Hey, Spectre, just because you think someone is trashy, doesn't mean that their lover sees them in that light. Maybe he will later, but don't start going off about what a skank she was in front of him until he pops the first insult about her, or you could just make him angry with you.

OMG! I know! I haven't role played with him in sooo long. I am really looking forward to it. Oh... Fate... Don't read the interest thread until you're completely done with the series unless you want the ending spoiled for you. ^^_^^;;

And seriously. I've spoken with you personally, and I've seen what Tony has to say around the boards, and I'm just saying... if they're half as intelligent as you guys, they'll lead good lives. They have a really good chance of being super smart because they've got two different parents contributing. ^^_^^

by Arthmael Thu Jul 02, 2009 9:20 pm

Well I'm happy it's the weekend! I actually get to have fun on 4th of July. Hanging with the lady of my life, and friends =) nothing can stand in the way of that.

by **Kathryn Lacey** Thu Jul 02, 2009 9:31 pm

I'm not watching the fireworks tonight. I hope you enjoy it, though. I hope you have good weather for it, too.

That'll be so awesome then if he decides to do an Avatar RP with you! ^__^ Oh, yikes! Nope, don't worry -- I'm staying away from the Avatar talk until I'm all done...which shouldn't be long! I just finished Book Two!! It was a much more depressing ending than Book One. I couldn't believe Zuko. I really thought he was going to turn good and change his ways and to stop being controlled by his stupid family. Grrr, he went through so much and got to meet so many nice people on his travels that were affected by the Fire Nation. You'd think all that would change him. Well, I really hope he ends up turning against his nation in the end and fighting alongside the Avatar. Srsly. That would make me extremely happy! Cool

Okay, enough talk about it, lol. Time to start Book Three!

That is quite possibly the best compliment I have ever been given, and it really means a lot to me that you say that, Kathryn... Hug

I think and hope that you are right, too. I know Tony will make a great dad someday, and I can't wait to contribute to teaching and raising a child. Smile

(I always loved Dakota Fanning's characters in movies and things, since she was always that really bright little girl that I always wanted in a daughter someday...hehe! The best example is her role in the mini-series by Steven Spielberg, Taken.)

by **Kathryn Lacey** Thu Jul 02, 2009 11:52 pm

Damnit... I really need a new set-up. Jonathan doesn't like my posting his picture all over the boards. He's a pretty private person. However, I have no clue what to do for one... Maybe I'll find some awesome Avatar pictures, and make one out of that... or have someone make one for me since I'm not so great with it... We'll see.

I've never seen Taken, but I do know that she always played the bright roles, and I really liked that. I don't want kids, but if I ever have any, I hope they're intelligent. Having stupid little brothers really sucked...

I'm excited for the Avatar role play. ^^_^^

by **Fate Flyer** Fri Jul 03, 2009 12:08 am

Aw, well I can understand that, since Tony's also the same way when it comes to that. I think an Avatar setup would be really cool. Nod

Lol well I hope that, for your sake, if you do have any, that they are not stupid either. The same can be said for you though. You're a very bright person, and I'd be surprised if any child you may have (if you do) turned out any other way.

I'm just enjoying Avatar. What more can I say? Smile

by Arthmael Fri Jul 03, 2009 12:10 am

All this Avatar talk, I have the first season theme in my playlist. I feel bad for missing all of whats been going on-I have caught a few episodes in the middle here and there. But I will dedicate some time and watch from Book 1, all the way to Book 3.

I like the story behind it, sucks I missed so much -_-.

by **Kathryn Lacey** Fri Jul 03, 2009 12:17 am

I'm thinking about following the crowd and making it after the character I'm going to have for the Avatar role play. Then again... I could just make it waterbending in general. =3

Well, I may be pretty intelligent, and I have intelligent people in my family, but we have so many mental defects and illnesses that even if they are intelligent, the mental crap could really mess with them. While I've had an interesting family, they're also a bunch of crazy people, and that's not really much fun at all. =\

lol, well if I didn't die I think I can celebrate cuz it left wicked cool marks Smile

I have lines of little red dots in wave across my stomach and down my leg. The pain was akin to stinging nettle (if you know what that is). It stung. I thought I'd gotten a bunch of little spines in me but I couldn't see where. (We think the jelly fish was ripped apart and washed in because we didn't see more than a few strands on me) We (my mom--who also got stung--and I) didn't have any pee so we tried to submerge in the ocean thinking the salty water might help. No such luck, the water made it worse almost. So we went back to the house. My uncle is a neurologist and he looked at it and said since we hadn't died in the first five minutes (when the really poisonous ones kill), probably there were no neuro-toxins. Very Happy

Hence Celebration! cool story and cool spotty wavy dot line wounds! Very Happy

next time (if there is one) I hope there's pee involved cuz that just makes it so much funnier lol Smile

by **Kathryn Lacey** Fri Jul 03, 2009 11:27 am

I hope, for your sake, that there isn't a next time. It sounds really painful... and the next time could involve a deadlier sting. =\

by Lara Fri Jul 03, 2009 2:56 pm

-dances in a circle and falls to the ground-

I found a book that I've been looking for ever since I read it when I was younger. I read it one time and can still recall the scene that made me look for it again, but even upon returning to where I borrowed it the first time, I was unable to find the book again. I took to looking around on the internet again earlier and finally figured out the right way to search for it. Smile

by **Fate Flyer** Fri Jul 03, 2009 3:15 pm

Aww, that's so great that something jogged your memory you were able to find it, Lara! ^^

I am nearing the end of Book 3 in Avatar. Smile

I am really happy with the way things have been playing out!

by Gunneh Fri Jul 03, 2009 4:34 pm

Go Go Go, Fate! You'll ~LOVE~ Book Three, and I'm quite sure of it! Then you can join in on the RP discussion Very Happy

by **Fate Flyer** Fri Jul 03, 2009 5:05 pm

I DID IT!

I've finished watching all of Avatar, and wow! What an amazing show and a great ending. I only wish it could have been longer (like The Return of the King long! xD). I was waiting to see Sakka's Hawkie messenger bird return after delivering a letter home to Toph's parents lol. I guess it knew to stay away from all the fighting? Aw, but yes, what a great show. I was so happy about Zuko too.

Wow! It looks like Avatar won a lot of awards too! I was reading about it on Wikipedia. That's so great. Definitely well deserved.

by **Kathryn Lacey** Fri Jul 03, 2009 8:12 pm

Sokka, actually. ^^_^^;;

I'm only irritated because they never resolved the issue with his mother, Ursa. It's like... the ultimate cliffhanger that I really wanted to be resolved. >=(

by **Fate Flyer** Fri Jul 03, 2009 10:13 pm

(Oh, I realized that later! xD Doh

)

Yeah, I was waiting for Zuko to find his mom, especially after asking his dad at the end about it. It does kind of suck that they couldn't have shown them reunited at last. I'm really curious what she's been up to all this time. Hopefully, when the 3rd movie comes out, they'll be sure to include that.

I'm really looking forward to The Last Airbender movie now! It does seem so far though.

by **Kathryn Lacey** Fri Jul 03, 2009 11:52 pm

Yes... Almost two days shy of a year. :: sighs :: I just know when the full theatrical trailer comes out I'm going to have a sqeegasm or something while I watch it. I practically did over the widdle ol' teaser trailer.

by Shades Of Gray Sat Jul 04, 2009 2:35 am

I'm celebrating sweats, fuzzy socks, and sweatshirts. Also; comfortable sleeping bags (oh god... this thing has memory foam in it...) and a good camera Smile

by **Kathryn Lacey** Sat Jul 04, 2009 11:08 am

Yay! You're in Alaska. I didn't realize you'd have computer access where you were going. Are you in a hotel or something?

by Shades Of Gray Sat Jul 04, 2009 6:37 pm

Yep! I've arrived about 3 days ago. And no, I'm not staying at a hotel, lol, that would certainly be plush though! My dwelling looks more like a chicken coop than anything else... a little hovel. I love it though!! The room is no bigger than 10 x 10 made of plank wood with a window, and a door that doesn't close all the way. Oh, and misqueto netting... which is my 'screen'. :3
