In a wacky moment of fate, I was a scientist in two of the three I tried. In the other, I was a reporter. Fun all around ;)

Sorry I've been incommunicado lately. APs ate up all last week, but I did get out of the AP History exam by scratching my cornea. Not the most pleasant experience of my life, but I do get 3 more days to study... *waves goodnight*

Gah. My disaster is a hurricane, so obviously I approve. Plus I get to marry my true love, which is always good. Really. Except I'm currently freaking out over all guys and would rather hide under my bed than get married ever...

... Okay, I'm ranting.

Aww, don't freak out. Guys are easy to smoosh if they get out of line. You can either go for the balls or the fragile, over-inflated egos ;)

Actually, I would have prefered the other option on ultimate fate, *rescuing* my true love. I dislike being the damsel in distress.

Nice icon, love!

*snort* Ah, the problem is less that he's out of line and more the fact that I want to push him against the wall and kiss him senseless. He likes Tamora Pierce. And Buffy. And Smallville. And Neil Gaiman. And my best friend also has a huge crush on him.

See, I don't particularily care what role I get, as long as there are no bugs or blood involved. Or brains. ;)

Thanks!

*swoons* Man, that's a find. Is he cute, as a bonus? The best friend issue is a problem, though. I'm not exactly qualified on this issue, but you should talk it out with her. It'd be a shame to let such a fine guy go, but you don't want to alienate your friend over a boy.

Braaaaiiiiinnnnsss..... ;)

He is a find. And yes, he is cute in that dorky sort of way. *nods* And it is a horrible issue, but it won't ruin anything, because I am not telling anyone in RL that I like him. Nope. There would be scary fits from my other best friend, because he's her "baby cousin." It'd be bad.

And trust me, there will be no alienation. She's been my best friend since first grade and I'm not that stupid. *blinks* Although she still swears he and I would make a good couple, but she's crazy. The whole car thing proves that.

Wow, landmines are just scattered all over the place around this guy ;)

Good! I knew you were a sensible girl. And you simply *have* to explain "the whole car thing," you wretched tease *g*

[identity profile] jrose.livejournal.com 2004-05-12 04:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, they are. But he's so unlike all the other guys around here, so I have a crush. *sigh* I have to like him... Yesterday the library got 3 new Gregory McGuire books because he asked for them, and when the librarian mention I wanted them after him, he brought them to my house and told me he'd read them after I was done. *blinks* And he reads Star Wars.

She's the one who refused the new car and wanted S1 of Stargate instead.

Awwww, a nerd and a gentleman. That's so cute! *coos* I thought they didn't exist anymore. You have to check his TV addictions-- if they match up at all, you may have to do something about it.

Ooooooh. *That* car thing ;)

[identity profile] jrose.livejournal.com 2004-05-12 10:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Angel. Smallville. He loved Roswell and he's fully intending to see the Firefly movie at midnight when it comes out. And various other TV shows - he's mentioned Farscape before, I think. And my best friend also likes him, which is what I have to keep telling myself.

Yep. That car thing. She's bonkers.

That's just....cosmically unfair. *pats Jenny*

But always interesting, I bet.

[identity profile] jrose.livejournal.com 2004-05-13 06:59 pm (UTC)(link)
*sniffles* The universe hates me.

Yep, always interesting. Especially when we're doing things together (we're both fond of day long shopping trips with bags of sugar.)

[identity profile] thespatz.livejournal.com 2004-05-13 07:09 pm (UTC)(link)
*hugs* Well, maybe the friend will let you have him? As...a birthday present?

Bags of sugar? Good heavens. You two must be quite frightening with that much of a buzz. Do you have to paste public hazard warnings on your foreheads? It should be required ;)

[identity profile] jrose.livejournal.com 2004-05-13 07:21 pm (UTC)(link)
*cackles* Well, her birthday is the 28th of this month.

Yes. Bags of actual, granulated sugar. We put them into tequila glasses (I think- whatever the tiny ones are) and we drink them. And no need for public hazard warnings - we always wear our matching crowns or devil's horns, which tend to be a warning right there.

Errr...not what I had planned. Drat. (I told Lindsey about this dreamboat, btw, and she heartily approved.)

Heee! Sugar shots! That's tres awesome. I usually just go straight from the packet, or spoon. Your way sounds better, though ;)

Well, at least you're being responsible about excessive sugar intake. This isn't a laughing matter. *serious face* I knew a girl once who vibrated so hard she splinched herself. It was a great tragedy....

[identity profile] jrose.livejournal.com 2004-05-16 10:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Not precisely what I would have preferred, either. And good to know she approves. ;)

Yes! Sugar shots. Fun as hell, which is why we do that and not the spoon bit. Although when we're in a complete bind (read: nowhere near bags of sugar and shot glasses) we simply use pixie sticks.

*nods* You're right, it isn't a laughing matter at all. Poor thing.

Oh, these lyrics: http://www.templelooters.com/evil/lyrics.htm made me think of you. And the fact thry did is horribly scary, I would just like to inform you.

[identity profile] thespatz.livejournal.com 2004-05-17 05:03 pm (UTC)(link)
We have excellent taste, yes. Too excellent, in fact: we can't find any suitable...tidbits ;)

!!!! Pixie sticks are *worse*. Yikes!

*dies laughing*

I mean, you suck.

I mean..... *pout*

[identity profile] jrose.livejournal.com 2004-05-17 05:05 pm (UTC)(link)
*snickers* What a horrible shame.

Pixie Sticks are better! Sugar that's easy to get ahold of and is occasionally lime flavoured... How can you deny the beauty of it all?

*grin* Poor girl. You seem confused.

And it still makes me think of you.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *how?*

[identity profile] thespatz.livejournal.com 2004-05-10 09:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Er....stupidity?

I was getting my stuff out of the car Thursday afternoon, and I have a bunch of books in my right arm, pencil in right hand, and reached for my sweater with the left. The pencil just arced right across the surface (straight on the pupil), and I dropped everything and started freaking out that I had broken off lead in my eye.

Fortunately, when we got the emergency room, it wasn't serious, just very very painful. They gave me codeine and antibiotic cream and said it would be cool in 12 to 24 hrs. It took more like 36, but whatever. Thank God eye tissue regenerates so fast. You never realize how much your eye moves until 2 in the morning, trying to sleep, and your eye keeps twitching and imaginary needles consequently poke into your eyeball.

The codeine helped, though I didn't get any sleep until Saturday. I do get massive amounts of extra time for APUSH, though, (yay!).

Okay, ending the blast of TMI...

!!!!!! OUCH!!!!!!!!! Katie, be CAREFUL!

[identity profile] thespatz.livejournal.com 2004-05-11 07:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Dude, I know. I was freaking myself out for DAYS about the accident that could have been. *shivers* Yeeeeeep.

[identity profile] thedorkygirl.livejournal.com 2004-05-12 04:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, I've never done anything like that. All my friends have near-misses. I feel like I'm being left out or something. I never had a pen go through my entire foot. *sighs*

oh my goodness, i wish that you watched star trek: enterprise, just so you could read this fic with me and squeel the shippy goodness. squeel with me anyway?

yay! ships! yay!

[identity profile] thespatz.livejournal.com 2004-05-12 09:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Pen through the FOOT?!? Yeeeeeeeaaghhh!! Lindsey had that needle break off in her toe, but that's not even close....

You bet! *squees*

Now, which ship am I squeeing for...?

[identity profile] thedorkygirl.livejournal.com 2004-05-12 04:11 pm (UTC)(link)
OH MY GOD SPELLING MISTAKE! I, like, changed it from squeal to squeel, because I was thinking about squee, but I didn't take off the L. *blinks* okay.

[identity profile] thespatz.livejournal.com 2004-05-12 09:32 pm (UTC)(link)
*giggles* Dork! I just read it as squee, though, so maybe I'm the dork for automatically translating things into net-speak ;)
