I have lived in Arizona most of my life, and I have never seen an Arizona Walrus. Must be too far north, they probably live closer to Sierra Vista.
Netflix, even though it's cheap, gets pretty boring. Need good shows to watch but I'm too sick to ask anyone. I could just text, like, stop wasting texting energy on this message but....too late. >_>
Avatar: The Last Airbender. (Don't know if that's on Netflix, but it's my go-to recommendation. Best. Show. Ever.) You know how I complained about the blazing heat yesterday? Well, it's cold and rainy today. I feel as if a spell has broken. Come back, sun! I didn't really mind being too hot!
There is no hot water in House. This is not a joke, I had the worst shower of my life last night and that includes all the ones in that creepy claustrophobic shower with the scary fan we had when I was little.
Yeah, here in the U.S. as well, and it's getting annoying. Worse when I have a mother who claims to be tired of hearing about it but keeps up bringing up shit about Harry or the wedding that I don't give two shits about.
I ordered a book from a South Korean company and it's not going to be here for like 10 days but I want it noooooowwwwwwww. Also I paid $20 for shipping.
And so does the majority of the viewership. Like the GZA said, the dumb are mostly intrigued by the drum.
I was at dinner with my mom, her "boyfriend," my brother, etc., and they kept talking about watching this wedding on television. All I felt was shame. No words to express my disappointment in dinner conversation.
Yeah. I guess my aunt DVRed it, and she, my mother and wife are going to watch it later. My wife is saying everything in a British accent this morning, but, to give her credit, she's mostly saying "fuck off," "kiss my tit," and "I'll kill you all." So there's that. And then she asked me if I'd watch it with her and feed her tea and scones. I replied, no, but I'll drink whiskey and feed her (affection). She seemed mildly interested. Or casually indifferent. I don't know... 50/50? Something to look forward to, maybe.
This is hilarious! I'm the devotedly single, never wanna get married one here, yet I stayed up to watch the wedding and got all "awww" when I saw the way he looked at her.
We all watched it in the common room together, we all cheered when they kissed and made jokes about the royal family singing the national anthem ("God save Granny...")
Today my vile family demonstrated how little they care about my weight loss plans. Not only did they force cake and my favourite cookies upon me, they also insisted on inviting me out for dinner. Carbs are the enemy, folks, but there was no way for me to escape that basket of warm, freshly baked white bread. They also dismissed my objections on them passing me all the ouzo shots the waiter kept bringing us, which is the reason why I'm more than just a little tipsy while writing this. (all through no fault of my own, of course)
Our wedding photographer snapped this perfectly timed picture of us at the "altar." My wife and I are gazing into each other's eyes, and I have this skeptical look on my face like I'm thinking wait, until what do us part? It's hilarious. My mother put it on a coffee cup.
That's hilarious! (And so is your mother.) And that would totally be me...if I they were able to drag me that far.
I really like the display and celebratory atmosphere, to be honest. I've only been to three weddings in my life (and one of them doesn't really count because I was two) but both times I can remember I really enjoyed dressing up and (in the latter case) meeting up with family, and also the food and the dancing. To be honest, I'm not really one for the whole romance and "magic" of the thing, especially with divorce rates so high, but with my mum's cousin I realised that I kind of live in a bit of a bubble. "That won't happen to anyone in our family." (Even though it has.) I really wish I could plan a wedding and see it come off - now I just have to find a willing couple to let me take over the planning of theirs! I'd want it to be a lesbian couple so I could pick two dresses. (Also, for me the worst part of planning a wedding would be taking into account the opinions of my fiancé/fiancée.) For Harry and Meghan, I think the appeal is the mystique, glamour, and pageantry of royalty. It's an old and storied institution and it's something that I feel makes us British, even though loads of other countries have monarchies too. I felt so patriotic today.
Me too. I love the pageantry and watching all the horses. Ditto. Part of me always wonders how long it'll last. But I did love the way he looked at her, and the sweet way he helped her negotiate the stairs afterward. You can tell he really loves her, and that's nice to see. And "Stand By Me" was the perfect song. Maybe you can someday, EM. And I do get it-- I have no desire to plan a wedding, but I'm good at planning parties. As well you should! Part of my ancestry is English, so I feel a bit of...nostalgia for my roots, let's say?
The thing is, I'm aromantic, so I don't want to actually get married, just plan a wedding - maybe when I get filthy rich off my books I can pay a couple of actors to "get married" so I can see my ideal wedding! (There's got to be someone who'll do it if you flash enough cash, won't there?)
Homes, when you watch later, look for the part where for just a moment Harry looks as if he might faint. My sis and I were Facetiming while watching, and it made us laugh. If you blink you might miss it, but God it was funny. He got it together really fast, though. EM, wedding planners make a lot of money, in the US, anyway, so maybe you can get someone to pay you to organize organise it for them. (British spelling seems right today.)
