So glad to hear everything went & is going well. Congratulations on your marriage! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And of course she wouldn’t be a mini sith without a toy dragon and hophops nothing wrong with being a Jedi. It appears it was just one stray moth, at least I haven’t found more and after yesterday’s struggle, my flat is insect free for the most part. I should go and do some shopping. She is rather fond of dragon , she likes hop hops too but horse is her current favourite as well as zebra and duck. Also , there is everything wrong with being a Jedi!, their dogmatic narrow minded view of the force, their inability to love, their lame force powers and worst of all, not having red lightsabers!. 4 hours ago, honeyed chicken said: So glad to hear everything went & is going well. Congratulations on your marriage! Thank you so much , I feel so happy and contented at the moment, I’m married to an amazing person and we have an amazing child together and another on the way, or maybe I’m just getting old and boring because this means the world to me.

RhaenysBee Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 Oh my... so with severe headaches, I got through the 35C weekend. It was bearable at home, but the moment I stepped out of my building... the heat hits you like a hammer. And 35C is the general air, if you stand in the sun, it’s like 40. And it comes with no sleep too, because it’s still 30C at midnight so I have to wake myself up around 4 to open windows and then wake myself up at 7ish again to close them. This way there’s some oxygen and I have a little control over the temperature inside, but it’s quite an exhausting routine. Anyway, I did some last minute sales shopping, didn’t manage to pick up too many items though because the sales section is mostly sold out and with the travel next week I didn’t want to spend too much on the new collection, especially that it’s still mostly summer clothing and I can’t wait for autumn. And I even managed to quick clean the flat and do laundry. Ironing never happened due to the heat. I’m counting on the cold wave that’s promised to Tuesday. After a tedious, 3-hour long 30C train-ride I’m currently in my 30C hotel room. I want 15C, 8 hours of sleep and rain. /daily rant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not boring, imo. I think you have your priorities right, and it's important to recognize and be cognizant of those times when things are good for when they aren't and you can look back and remember that things weren't always bad. Conversely, here in the chicken coop, things were pretty rough when Chickee was in college, but that's over and we can look back and feel relieved we survived and are feeling pretty good about things now. Hopefully, the good times outnumber the bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the time anybody would fix my AC it’d be late September. A cold wave is supposed to come tomorrow. And lord I hope it does because it’s 10pm and 32C outside.

I definitely feel like these are the good times at the moment, I’m scared about dealing with mini Sith when she becomes a teenager though! , thankfully that’s quite a long way off.

Jen'ari Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 Wow, go Rhae!, while we’re on being proud, I want to announce that I’ve decided to take on a difficult project, I’m going to attempt build an unorthodox musical instrument from scratch, then, try and learn to play it.

What instrument? I have a friend who has a freakish ability to pick up just about any instrument from sitar to organ to bagpipes and not only play them, but repair them when necessary.

Ondes Martenot, a friend from when I was at uni who’s a violin player is going to be doing it with me, she’s interested in it for its application in orchestras, I want to, to perfect my covering Pyramid song next time I do it .

First of My Name Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 Hi guys! I don't remember which of you originally recommended Robin Hobb to me (I think Buck and Helena?) but seven years later I finally made it to Assassin's Fate and it's absolutely breaking my heart. This series is so amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I’m still a zombie did you reach the gentleman after all? Is there any news from him? Well, you are going on holiday, that is great, yes? I had a very early flight back from Edinburgh, that meant my last night at the hostel was basically useless. What was the last thing I posted about him? I called him, but after that, no. See dating thread for details, it is pretty therapeutic how everybody agrees he is a jerk. I did, however, meet one of our common acquaintances at the beach. I do still feel pretty crappy about it all. I feel so old, too old for my single, not-settled life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
