I havent, nope. Never even heard of that site.

It's worth checking out. It's a games review site, very funny. Very British humor if you are in to that sort of thing.

Extremely happy right now. Had some leftover mashed potatoes that I mixed with cheddar cheese, cooked bacon, and rolled into 6 portions, each slightly larger than a golf ball. Dipped those in flour, then egg wash, then panko. Cooked them up in a little canola oil. Between the three of us, we each got two. Wasn't a lot of food, but it was great; so worth the the little voice inside my head yelling at me.

YAY!!

Made big progress on my story. Big progress. Decided to write some of the climax to epic tunes I found on Youtube. =D

I'm just replaying Fallout: New Vegas. I completely forgotten how much I love this game! =D

Joel and I went and visited one of the places in that game a few weeks ago. Fun times.

Uhh...what exactly about a roller derby convention is redneck? If anything it's, like, so punk rock.

Come make some for me, I'm starving!

^ Hedge, that sounds freaking awesome. I'm going to make it. Tried to +rep you for the idea, but it said I have to spread some around first.

I hit 35K last night and finally finished revising all the crappy transitions that I'd had highlighted in red. I'm moving forward today. Hoping to pass 37K. At the rate I'm at, I've calculated that I'll be hitting 50K a week and a half from now.

Mallory and Hidden: Thanks! expect a package soon!

Excellent on the 35k!

Thanks! And also, thanks for the upcoming package. I'll be checking my mail lol.

I've currently got some white choco chips from Subway...want me to send one over?

Officially moved into my new apartment as of yesterday afternoon. I've spent the majority of the past 24 hours, in between school and work, unpacking and organizing everything. It is minutely less chaotic than yesterday. But I live here. I have escaped Hell Apartment Complex!

It fits me well. I think I will like living here. <3

[hiddennovelist]

Yay, Merc! I hope you have a happier experience with this place than your last!

I just got back from getting my hair cut and highlighted. This is the first time I've gotten it done in two years, and I'm so happy to have nice hair again!

^ Wish I could go that long without going to the hairdressers. My hair start splitting reall easy, and then I just spend the whole day parting the ends instead of doing what I'm supposed to.... which sounds really weird. They are ruining me. And I don't look good bald.

Anyway, I finally finished typing up all the stuff I have written in notebooks during the summer (can't bring laptop to beach), and my novel word count went from 1K to 11K! Woo!
I have dreaded doing that for so long now, it's so amazing it's finally over.

25k mark. Woo!

I saw the picture, and it looks great! I always get bored with my hair so then I cut it a little, but I've decided to try and let it grow a bit. It's till my chest now, hopefully I'll have to patience to not chop it off yet. :P

25k mark. Woo!

Yay! That's pretty awesome. =)

[Lemex]

I am LOVING Robinson Crusoe at the moment.

Thank you lovely <3

Excellent choice. Where are you up to?

[VM80]

I'm flattered by some feedback I had today. Writing-related, no less.

He is on the island, exploring it, and is building up his sea-side home and keeping livestock. I'm maybe halfway through the book.

I just cut it myself in between. It looks kind of choppy, but it does the trick--plus it's so long that no one really notices anyway.

Nice job, finishing typing all that! I do a lot of writing by hand when I'm working on things, and typing it up after is a pain.

Thanks, Soul Sister! I used to do the same thing, and then I saw a picture of myself from a while back when I had really long hair, and I decided to try to grow it out. Sometimes I really want to just chop it all off, but most of the time I love it long. Hopefully you'll be able to stick it out and grow yours out, too!
