I'm the pretty Prince of Parties

Time:	4:04 pm.
Mood:	accomplished.

RL News:
1. Secured wireless connection. Required tech support to do this, and was on the phone for over an hour (because nothing is ever simple in the antiship of me/electronics), but I did not break down and cry. I consider this a victory.
2. Had a date. Very short, italian sodas and talking. Nice enough guy, no real clicking but it was short and casual and I got an italian soda (albeit not a very good one, more lime syrup please).
3. Trading emails with Fellow. I think I'm over him, and this is good. Still think he's adorable, funny, generally awesome and fun to talk to, but he's emotionally unavailable and it's not worth staying attached. Good job, heart. You can be taught. :)
4. The "e" on my keyboard is acting up, so if I leave an e out of a word, that's why.

( RPstuff, including rambles about Corrie (of course) )

I wonder how long it will take for the mods of that Acromantulas game to start putting their ads under a cut. I am no longer completely terrified of spiders, but I was still a little startled by that thing, and I imagine some people will react much worse.

Let's see, it's 5:57 right now...

I post possibly too often for Corrie, and too much at the same time, but she has so much going on that there's always... five or so things she needs to talk about.

Well, at least the game's more than active enough to handle my spazzing. And I managed to stick the Quidditchtalk and the Biro Revolution into other people's entries. Yay for space-saving methods!

Seriously going to bed now. Oh, and I won't be around for most of tomorrow night - I'll be busy geeking out at this awesome little thingie.

The only reason I am not currently stabbing my router with a stabjabby utensil of stabbnocity is that it might possibly make my connection even suckier than it has been so far tonight.

Also, gchat, last time I checked I was the network administrator (you know, where it has my name on that bill thing I get every month) and I most certainly did not disable you. Though I am starting to reconsider.

I have updated ALL OF MY CHARACTERS this weekend! Woohoo!

And now: semibriefs on their current mental states. Or at least as many of them as I can fit in before I decide it's bedtime.

( cut like a KNIFE )

And that was long. Time for bed now, bye!

Mac had a hot date with Lindsay last night. (They ATE FOOD.) Today, he's worried about Martians.

Mac is so wonderfully stressless to play.

Oh, Cairo! I found a next-gen game where Meaghan and Merton have kids. It makes me giggle. (And hey, none of them have been picked up yet...!)

Well hey there, Snaps Cup. I was hoping one of these would pop up soon! :)

The managers are throwing us a nacho party today because we've been working hard. I approve of this.

The funeral will be Saturday morning, so I'll be flying out Friday evening. I'll be out of town and busy with family stuff until Sunday night.

And now for something completely different that I stole from someone:

My grandfather passed away this morning, so I may be gone this weekend. I'm not sure when the funeral is going to be, but the end of the week would be an obviously good choice for it.

I've been ready for this since he went into the hospital Sunday. I'm just glad I was able to talk to him before he went. I didn't talk to my grandparents on the other side, they died too suddenly.

I had bills when I got home from work today, so I went to pay them, like I try to do as soon as I get them. The cell phone bill was fine, but apparently my car insurance expired two weeks ago. Luckily, the office was still open. Unluckily, they couldn't reinstate my policy and had to start a new one. Luckily, the new policy is going to charge me around thirty dollars less every six months (?).

Unluckily, when I put the new policy in my glove compartment, I smashed my right pinky finger in the door of the glove compartment.

Luckily, I was right across the street from a grocery store. I bought band-aids and a carton of ice cream. I'll let you know if I develop a spontaneous allergic reaction to it.

Only four holds left at BNW! Everyone else came in over the weekend and, y'know, dominated my weekend.

This sudden (relative) dearth of things to wait for means, of course, that I must post about characters I would love to see in the game.

1. The remaining muggles! Sunni's still holding Davey Dursley, but there's still his gorilla of a brother, Jack (a trained boxer who beat up fellow Muggle Liaison Harrison Upjohn), Saraswati Mundra (who has two unplayed but occasionally NPCed siblings at Hogwarts) and Rory Li (who joined the MLP on a dare).
2. Alumni, especially recent ones, especially those from last year, especially Ethan Tilsbury and Thomas Cambridge. Need I link to the epic owl post of epicnocity? (Jeremy Stebbins, Rory Bobbin-Malloy and Scarlett Chase would also be awesome.)
3. CHARLIE "Gwydion" UPJOHN. Muggleborn pro Quidditch player, super-awesome younger brother in play. And he's a huge hit with the ladies. Can you seriously ask for more? Seriously.
4. Counselor Chelsea Stoddard, seen at the bottom of this page. Muggleborn former Slytherin. So much potential.
5. Gerhardt Goyle. <3

And now I will go to sleep, hurrah.

Ugh, ads.

Someone held Kirley at

91! I'm excited, but slightly terrified. Sibling relationships are so hard to get right, and I'm so used to Dena's Kirley, even though he wouldn't technically work in this family situation... :-/ But it'll be okay! It will be okay. ETA: It WILL be okay, the player seems really nice and hopefully we can get a Ludo and a Stubby and have lots and lots of pseudofamily/half-family fun together! :D

There are a lot of fun costumes at work today! I am ~~Constable Visit-The-Infidel-With-Explanatory-Pamphlets~~ a Roman soldier.

Eric writes long entries when I should be sleeping. :[

Though Corrie's wasn't exactly a one-liner either. Dangit, kids, be quiet when your mumn is getting near her bedtime.

I need to do something with Renee soon, too, and have Teddy comment about the muggles in Diagon Alley. (Ooh. Maybe he should be the one with sneezing sickness, too. Maybe? Do I have time?)

I won't be around much tomorrow or Saturday nights - I'm watching things with friends and going to a Halloween party, respectively. Tomorrow at work we have a potluck, and I'm bringing a salad. Spinach, mushrooms, apples from our tree. (I love our apple tree.) I think those will go together well? If not, the salad is still my ticket to partake of everyone else's food. This is good, because I haven't been eating well this week. (On a happier note, I took naps today and yesterday. I'm just tired lately, man.)

91 is opening soon, and I got Meaghan (and Marietta!). I am probably insane to try playing at another game on top of running BNW, but sometimes it's good to have another outlet. Er, although this is still RPing. You know what I mean, maybe.

Okay, BED.

Psst! Lots of mood themes here! Including Kaya Scolawdunjfkjro, Emily Browning, Pushing Daisies, Skins, several Merlin, a couple True Blood, Steven Strait, HP 1-6, Marilyn Monroe, ~~Megan Fox whyyyy,~~ and a different Wonderfalls one from the one I currently use here.

Maybe I will take the other Wonderfalls one and use it on my icon journal. Except I always say I'm feeling "accomplished" on there, so what's the point in having a real mood theme?

I'm exhausted. I wish I didn't have to go to work today, but there were only four out of seven of us there yesterday, and my manager was talking about overtime if we didn't get caught up. So if I don't go, I feel like I'll be dooming everyone to overtime. Granted, they'll probably give us overtime anyway at this point. I hate fourth quarter.

I guess the distraction will be good for me, if nothing else.

Oh - Alter, that Hedley song you linked me to is now running through my head. Just the chorus, of course.

Kati is a wonder and a delight among women. And I miss her Donnie hardcore, that dirty dirty hippie. He makes Meaghan spring to life like no one else - after reading that owl, I realized that Meaghan thinks vegans are virgin vegetarians. Oh, Meaghan.

I expected there to be a lot of activity at BNW today, what with the Quidditch match and the play cast list. I didn't expect it to be quite that kind of activity, though clearly my characters (or character, since it was just Corrie) contributed.

Interesting to see how things spiral.

Where Corrie is concerned, it seems to be the latest episode of her grand tradition of being a huge twit when Lorcan isn't around to see it. In this case, she's partly taking out her frustration at him being hurt, but she also has a history of not liking to be lectured. That's why she started disliking Kitty (lecturing her about gillyweed and not using it to run away from problems), that's why she started disliking Lysander (all of his comments about being vegan struck her as pretentious).

She had some good lines in there (she can be pretty clever when she's mad), but I didn't particularly enjoy when she got so angry my hands started to shake. Made it difficult to type. Odd feeling, that. She and I both took breaks at that point.

Anyway, I apologize if anything she said offended anyone. Or really, I should probably say I apologize that it did offend people, because when she's trying to offend she generally succeeds.

Mac was much more fun tonight, though I didn't play him long.
