*pats Link on the on the back* sure we do care! we try to make you laugh moose: adult? seriously? talk about being adult when the first hundred approaches and I might take you seriously
That Moment? Random Thoughts? Movies? Book Reviews? Anyway, Johnny Got His Gun came on cable just as I should have been heading off to bed. Read that book the first time when I was in high school. Re-read it when I was still in high school, but the night before I headed off to MEPS (ask @Wreybies what that is... no, don't, he's busy). Suffice it to say that I went in with my eyes about as wide open as someone of my upbringing could do. Finally saw the movie. I think there were some changes, but it was written and directed by Dalton Trumbo, so it's safe to say that they're (also) canon. Good thing Mrs. A wasn't around to see me... ...reacting.
TMW you realize MEPS was very different for some than for others. *Wrey runs away before he gets swatted in the back of the head and called a zoomie*
That moment... when you spend days editing an entire manuscript and your client deletes all the notes in Track Changes because "It was fine the way it was."
so long as they paid you who cares ? - its the writers decision at the end of the day, if they want to waste their money by not taking the advice they are paying for that's their look out
That moment when ...you know you're engulfed by First World Problems. One of those Wallace-And-Gromit gadget catalogues arrived today. One of their new items is a toaster with glass sides so you can watch your toast, to make sure it's not getting burnt. The Consumer Verdict blurb accompanying this technological miracle says: "Thanks to the brilliant designers, you might never have to experience the pain and heartbreak of having to attempt to eat hard, blackened bread ever again." Well, at £80 a pop ...literally ...I think I'll just need to bear up, and keep using my old one.
TMW you see an opossum during the day just strolling around your neighborhood. You catch its attention and for a brief moment the pair of you stare at each other, regarding each other before the opossum loses interest and walks off.
That moment when you are reading Lord of the Rings while watching Gandalf (Ian McKellen) explore his family tree on telly.
TMW your dog knows you're getting the bathroom ready for puppy-bath-time and not even the sound of a cheese wrapper will coax her out from under the bed.
TMW you find out that the most interesting character in the "inspired by true events" movie is the one who never existed.
TMW a friend of yours has a facebook friend who is an insufferable idiot, but you don't want to be that person who starts shit on your friend's timeline... (smh)
That moment when your baby is sleeping nicely, and as soon as you crack open your textbook to study, her eyes pop open.
Hope it isn't me. Also TMW when you have an OCD alert: I'm beginning to notice that I start getting tense when I see other people put stacks of paper together without making sure the edges were perfect.
No. I have you directly friended. You're not a friend of a friend. Also, speaking of OCD, I was once told by an exboyfriend's niece that I eat sandwiches like a typewriter. Start in one corner, go across, hit the carriage return lever and start again.
My guess is this is why he is your EXboyfriend. I assume it has also cured you of the annoying habit of making a little "ding" noise when you hit that carriage return.
