la la love you, don't mean maybe

[unamaga]

I have a lot of things to say and very little brain power with which to say them! Thus, I use bullet points.

• I've been incredibly absent from the internet lately, I know. I'm not sure when it happened, but somehow I've acquired this aversion to my computer and started finding all different excuses to be away from it. This is not like me! In an attempt to get back into things, because being away from my flist makes me sad, my twitter account has been resurrected. Hopefully it'll keep me more in touch with people, and if I am an utter idiot and forget to do face_of_joe people can tweet angrily at me until I remember.
  
  
• Today is hereby declared Post-A-Puppy Day. Because I say so.
  
  
  This puppy loves you unconditionally.
  
• ladycat777 tagged me ages ago for this. I'm not tagging anyone else, because I'm pretty sure everyone's already seen this going around, but if you want to do it consider yourself poked.
  
  01. Make a list of 5 things you can see:

  Mostly just when I'm not feeling well or I've been in the car for a long time.
  
  06. What was your first celebrity crush?
  Oh god, I don't even know. Possibly a fraggle. DON'T JUDGE ME, THEY ROCKED.
  
  07. What's your current fandom/obsession/addiction?
  I'm multi-fannish at the moment, which hasn't happened in quite a few years: it's a split between Supernatural, Stargate Atlantis, and Merlin, with a bit of due South thrown in for good measure.

  13. Does the weather affect your mood?
  Drastically. I have a lightbox now, though! It does seem to help!

  18. What's something you'd like to say to someone right now?
  Stop being an asshole. It's not that hard.
  
  19. What are your plans for next weekend?
  Figure out how to rip down the wallpaper in the kitchen, paint, rewatch SPN 4x18 a billion times, catch up on CSI.

I'll post a picture of my grown-up puppy

(http://s258.photobucket.com/albums/hh267/pennyplain_photo/?action=view&current=Jack.jpg)

dude, bigbang is kicking my ass today.

[eliyes.livejournal.com]

Aaand that dog is gorgeous. Wow.

[pennyplainknits.livejournal.com]

Ahh, thank you! He's a retired racing greyhound. They're a great breed, and he's a total sweetie.

[eliyes.livejournal.com]

Ooh! There's some sort of foundation in my city for adopting retired racing greyhounds, as I understand it, but the only ones I've ever seen around are brindled. (I think that's the word?) And usually wearing booties and little things that remind me of saddle-blankets. They do seem like nice dogs! I was in a store once and a guy came in with three on leashes and they were very well-behaved. It was impressive.

Still not as pretty as yours, though. ;3

[pennyplainknits.livejournal.com]

The brindles are the brown-beige sort of stripey ones. Oddly they are apparently much easier to place for adoption groups- the black ones like my boy tend to get overlooked!

They would have been wearing coats- they feel the cold much more than other breeds as they have very little body fat, and only one layer of fur (most dogs have longer guard hairs, and a shorter layer for insulation. Yes, I am a giant geek when it comes to greyhounds!). A lot will wear house coats too at night in cold weather, essentially pajamas!

I'm glad you like him! I wish I could have him with me (he lives with my parents because I can't have dogs in my apartment) and I miss him so much.

[unamaga.livejournal.com]

Awww, your dog is darling! I want to pet him. <333

What about it is kicking your ass, bb? Is Arthur being difficult and unruly?

[pennyplainknits.livejournal.com]

No, I'm at the first showdown with Nimueh, and Uther is being a pain to write :-/

[hebrew-hernia.livejournal.com]

YOU-ooh! DOING THAT THING YOU DOO-OOH! BREAKING MY HEART INTO A MILLION PIECES! LIKE YOU ALWAYS DO-OOH!

I LOVE THAT MOVIE, DUDE.

[unamaga.livejournal.com]

IT IS MADE OF AWESOME. I find myself quoting it at people by accident.

[hebrew-hernia.livejournal.com]

It's totally a family favorite. Lamarr was on an episode of NCIS that I was watching the other day. I called my daddy to tell him about it. "My name is Lamarr, and this is my hotel."

[cathalin.livejournal.com]

FRAGGLES!!!! *hugs them and you*

[unamaga.livejournal.com]

THEY ARE SNUGGLY! I think I used to have a stuffed Red. :D :D

[eliyes.livejournal.com]

I have a Fraggle poster on slumped next to my wall (the sticky tack gave out. The Fraggles could be doing something unnatural with David Bowie and various Labyrinth muppets under there O.o ...)

Cuddledämerrung THIS WORD IS AWESOME.

[unamaga.livejournal.com]

BWAHAH. David Bowie is always doing something unnatural, and we love him for it.

\o/ IT IS! I think we should introduce it into everyday conversation.

[eliyes.livejournal.com]

Essentially, yes. :3

I'm trying to spread it around via AIM at the moment. ;D Cuddledämerrung!

[morgaine22.livejournal.com]

I'm the same about avoiding the computer for some weird reason. I guess every few years, I need a break for a few weeks. :/

But I miss you and the flist and having something to squee about. When is something good going to come along??

[darsynia.livejournal.com]

FRAGGLES! Also, That Thing You Do is ♥

I has no puppies, so you'll have to settle for art with McKay cuddling a kitten.
