    I finished part one of my book today. This is my first work that is >= 40,000 words in length! Thus I am happy. :)

    I've written so much in the past week that I've now passed my daily quota. And after finishing high school last month my ATAR score will be available in about eight hours. Even if I bomb tomorrow I'm not going to let a number ruin my elation at being done with school.

    Have always had 4-5 cats in the house, and always a normal Christmas tree. Never been a problem, but even when we had kittens in the house. We just made sure not to hang any decorations on the lower branches.

    Despite being shattered from a team night out last night (stayed relatively sober so no ill effects at work today :D ) I am seeing a show tonight... Jeff Wayne's War of the Worlds. I'm started to get super excited for it, I've loved the music since I was a kid and used to steal my dads CD's!

    Making some progress in Fallout 76 oh, got some respectable armor on, full set of T45 power armor I could use and a good set of weapons to use.

    Exploring the early game areas at the moment, too chickenshit to go further, LOL.

    Oh! And I can now use brick in making my player home

    By the way, if any of you are play, and you see a Madman with a Union soldier uniform and cop hat, armed with an assortment of rifles good good chance it to me

    Just a week left now! :love:
    Never doing three months apart again. It's way too long!

    Next year will hopefully be better. Lost has a new, better job and I'm hopefully getting one before long as well. While we might just get weekends and shorter visits I hope we'll see each other at least once a month. Long distance relationships aren't really my cup of tea - and turns out cups of teas are very important when you're dating a Brit.

    I'm not sure if "it's snowing" is supposed to go here or in the Unhappy Thread. I hate snow - and even more the cold - but I sort of want it for the holidays...

    I am pretty sure 50 Shade's already considered a horror movie to a lot who had to witness the train wreak. I only speak form other people's experiences, though. Myself I've kept away, though the boyfriend and I talked about watching them as a drinking game at some point...

    Still a better romance than Twilight?

    Well, this story is a fanfic of Twilight. The only things that were changed were the characters names I believe.

    Also, read Forrest Gump sometime, if you haven't. Better yet, don't, improvements on the source material happen all the time.

    Understandable.
    But a plank of wood is still a plank of wood in terms of acting. :p
