Okay, back to finding yums on the internet

[valis2]

Speaking of yums, florahart was awesomesauce extreme and wrote some Hawaii 5-0 ficlets for people who asked, including a scorcher based on the word prompt "dark" for me. They're awesome, she's an awesome writer, I urge you to check them out if you like that fandom (and slash, of course).

This morning I dreamt that marginaliana and I were attending my high school. But as we are now. And we were both kind of underwhelmed. We were sitting in class, which was held in the gym, and we were wearing the school uniforms, and M was getting bored and started talking over the teacher. So another teacher came and warned us to be quiet, and then M kept talking, and the other teacher came back and said that we both were getting detention. And we kind of eyerolled. And then she said that detentions were a dollar now, and she seemed very smug about it. So I pulled out a twenty, and said, oh, so this is how you're "fundraising" now, and suddenly she said it was $13.60 because there were other charges or something.

So M, you owe me $6.80 in dream cash.

Other than that, I am feeling a little better today. Yesterday morning I had blood drawn in the morning, which always makes me feel yucky, and then I spent the rest of the day crawling around in my low self-esteem ooze. Thankfully, in most cases the greater share of this ooze seems to fade after a night's sleep or two. I'm interested to find out what the results of the bloodwork are. I wonder how far my PCOS has progressed.

In good news, I posted a pic of a craft in progress on my FB fanpage, and 13 people liked it, which is a record for me. And I really need to finish it, lol. Also, someone went through my Etsy supplies shop and hearted about 40 items, which is unusual. I also had an eBay buyer purchase 15 items today and send me an eBay message for every. single. one. ugh.

I have run out of 8th Continent soymilk, so it's back to Silk. wah.

Okay, enough random weirdness. Back to eBay stuff, maybe finishing the crafty thing, and, if there are a few minutes, looking for H5-0 fic. In fact, I might just have to start watching the comms. I did snip a bunch of HP stuff recently, so it might be nice to add something new. Hmm. (Oh, and I also snipped some journals, but they were people who never friended me, so they probably aren't even aware that I have defriended them, and if they are, I can't imagine that they are bereft over it.)

Oh, which reminds me: If you ever want to defriend me because we are not communicating or you don't like my stance on Sharpie pens (I 100% like them and feel they are made entirely of win and strong ink) or you feel that you are lioned out, please do so, no worries, no hard feelings, seriously.

Ha! I'm afraid your dream is pretty accurate for my high school self! What a smart ass I was. Next time we meet up I'll buy you a drink in retribution. *snicker*

squee! I think I got the better end of the bargain, then. *grins* You were waaaay too cool for school, dude, it was pretty funny. ;)

Can those of us NOT on FB (because we still have souls) see your art? ::puppy dog eyes::

[fer-de-lance.livejournal.com]

Also: this? :D

I haz no Facebuk, and I wantz no Facebuk. But progress pics are Do Want.

[valis2.livejournal.com]

Have sent you both PMs. :)

[fer-de-lance.livejournal.com]

Heh, I am fully behind you on your Sharpie position. They are made of win. Permanent win. In fact, I might like them 110% now that they have those awesome ultra-fine-point ones. I am all over fine-point markers. :D

[valis2.livejournal.com]

I love the ultra fine point; I've been writing with them for years. I absolutely hate writing with anything else, honestly. Though they now have the ultra fine point pens, which don't bleed through--omg, they are wonderful, too. I am soooo part of the Sharpie cult. hee!!

Glad to see I'm not alone in my Sharpie worship!

Have you tried any of the new almond milks that are coming out? They are beyond awesome, IMO. We've been getting the chocolate unsweetened and then putting stevia in it (I like mine with a shot of regular cream myself, but it's good either way.)

[valis2.livejournal.com]

I do like almond milk, definitely! And it goes well with chai, which is what I drink the stuff with. Sometimes I do switch it up and drink something different, but mostly I like the taste of soymilk.

It's interesting that the chocolate almond milk is good--I've tried the chocolate soymilk and it's not my favorite. I'll have to try it, thanks!

Hmmm...pondering "8th Continent" soymilk...we only have "Silk" in this area that I can find and we love it. But, it sounds like there is something better.

Your creativity is just amazing - you write - long fics, the funniest "bad fanfic reviews" I have *ever* read, poetry; you craft; you run a business of your own managing all that (Etsy confuses me so...).

I can't imagine ever defriending you, as your posts are such fun to read, although generally over my simple little head! :-)

*hug*

Silk is okay. It has an aftertaste that I'm not super fond of, but it certainly isn't the worst on the market. The texture is a bit thick.

8th Continent is the best I've ever tasted. Light, delicious, and with the least aftertaste of any soymilk I've ever tried. YUM!

I have to buy it in WI because I can't find it in MI any longer.

Oh my goodness, I am totally blushing! *hugs* Thank you so much!!

Hooray for the friending! And maybe if I wrote a little less about Riptide, it would not go over people's heads so much. *grins*

I share your love of sharpie pens, but only if they have a sharp tip. There's nothing more sad than a dull sharpie.

[valis2.livejournal.com]

heh. When Sharpie fine tips get a little dull, they're awful, totally. But the ultra fine markers/pens--I just keep writing with them, usually holding my pen vertically, until they are absolutely down to the metal. lol.

[mariannelee.livejournal.com]

Why has nobody yet mentioned that it should be $6.40?

[valis2.livejournal.com]

Did I screw that up somehow? I'll admit, my brain was a little rusty at that moment, but I thought half of $13.60 was $6.80.

ha! Maybe there's a surcharge for dream weirdness.

[mariannelee.livejournal.com]

Oh, half. Right. I was thinking that was the change from the $20.

I can read.

[valis2.livejournal.com]

aha! Now I understand. :)

[slavelabour.livejournal.com]

I like Sharpies! Just saying. :) I love Silk, too. The Silk Dark Chocolate Almond milk, mmm!

[valis2.livejournal.com]

Sharpies totally rock beyond belief, absolutely. I found them about fifteen years ago, and have not looked back since! :)
