Happiest of birthdays to you, my beloved wenchie-pooh. I hope you have a wonderful day, and enjoy your pressies to the fullest. I’m with you in spirit as always (freezing my butt off over here… figures home would be warmer when I finally leave it!)
Hope to hear from you tomorrow.
Yours, always, Neko.

Happy birthday, to the great red dragon, our lovely BronxWench. I hope you have a lovely day, and that the snow isn’t too bad today.
I’m trying my hardest to make that “snow return home” spell work, but you wouldn’t believe how hard it is to get Santa’s helpers to cry…

I did say happy birthday on Facebook, but I don’t know if you frequent that place much, so I’ll say a belated happy birthday here!

Thank you, Melrick! I’ve been avoiding the toxic wasteland that is Facebook these days, I confess. It’s hard enough reining myself in on Twitter…

Happy New Year, everyone. May 2018 be your best year yet. 明けましておめでとうございます

There are healthier alternatives and outlets to satisfy your inner masochism.
That said. Bronxwench said it best.
I have all the faith in ya. No matter what.
For you can turn tomorrow’s hope into a solid promise.

Oh man, that can be me too often. Not always, but it’s bloody annoying when it happens, more so because I know I’m procrastinating at the time!

My dentist said it was okay to procrastinate, so I’m taking that as a prescription! (Well, it was regarding whether I needed a crown sooner vs later….)

That is insaaane! I’m so glad I stopped uploading my stuff there. So since Deviantart is a dirty little thief, anyone know of a good place to post art?

Well… it’s nice to know that Charlie Cox in Australia has been making good use of my old email account…

I was recovering my other gmail account, and had hundreds of spam crap addressed to Charlie or Charles Cox…
And everything that had a country domain thingy at the end, ended with the Australian domain name. At least I think . au is Australia…

If it were Irish, there would be an apostrophe.
No, an OPossum is any possum that starts a new thread on HotPossumGoss.com.

The Naming of Cats
T. S. Eliot1888 –1965The Naming of Cats is a difficult matter,
It isn’t just one of your holiday games;
You may think at first I’m as mad as a hatter
When I tell you, a cat must have THREE DIFFERENT NAMES.
First of all, there’s the name that the family use daily,
Such as Peter, Augustus, Alonzo, or James,
Such as Victor or Jonathan, George or Bill Bailey—
All of them sensible everyday names.
There are fancier names if you think they sound sweeter,
Some for the gentlemen, some for the dames:
Such as Plato, Admetus, Electra, Demeter—
But all of them sensible everyday names,
But I tell you, a cat needs a name that’s particular,
A name that’s peculiar, and more dignified,
Else how can he keep up his tail perpendicular,
Or spread out his whiskers, or cherish his pride?
Of names of this kind, I can give you a quorum,
Such as Munkustrap, Quaxo, or Coricopat,
Such as Bombalurina, or else Jellylorum—
Names that never belong to more than one cat.
But above and beyond there’s still one name left over,
And that is the name that you never will guess;
The name that no human research can discover—
But THE CAT HIMSELF KNOWS, and will never confess.
When you notice a cat in profound meditation,
The reason, I tell you, is always the same:
His mind is engaged in a rapt contemplation
Of the thought, of the thought, of the thought of his name:
His ineffable effable
Effanineffable
Deep and inscrutable singular name.From Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats. Copyright © 1939 by T. S. Eliot, renewed © 1967 by Esme Valerie Eliot.

::goes and hides under the couch:: I hate being sick!!

Usually, I take myself off to bed, and just sleep and sleep until I don’t feel sick anymore. Even if I have to sleep the clock round. I make myself unconscious. But then, I do have a phobia of actually being sick… try it, though, if you can. It definitely works!
And everyone is entitled to be wobbly, weak and weepy when they’re poorly
-
I’m like Pip. I’d rather take to my bed and ask to be left well enough alone until I’m human again. Usually, after a good 24 hours or so in bed, I’m feeling better, or at least well enough to get back to it. (Now if we could explain that to my family, I’d be grateful.)
-
Oh, I do prefer to lie in bed too, and try to sleep as much as possible, when sick. But I can’t… I get restless, and then I start to ache because I’ve been lying down for too long. My body just hates me… It just does not like me to have nice things

I actually thought it was a boy who lived next door, and that he just had a girlfriend, but it looks like it’s the girl who lives there
But man, she’s so not the type that I’d have thought was a rap-fan. Guess that just goes to show you, that you can't really guess what kind of music folks like depending on the way they look

Hey, we’ve got an old story up here about an Irish princess who got kidnapped and married to one of our viking lords, and she pretended to be mute for going on 20 years, just to spite the fucker
Even went as far as teaching their son her own language and stories in secret, while the rest of the household thought she was mute. So, obviously those Irish girls can hold a grudge for a while

Google translate tells me “"Oh, sorry, sorry, I looked for you" which sounds like what I hear whenever someone accidentally matches me on tinder.
Is it a song lyric?
-
The meaning is more along the lines of “I was looking for you” or “there you are” (the having been looked for implied)
It’s the first line that Howl says in the movie “Howl’s Moving Castle”. It’s my favourite Studio Ghibli movie.

Yeah… so, the parental units and baby sis with her fam are all living in the town next to these, and the threat of an eruption is growing larger, so I’d greatly appreciate all and any vibes of the good and safety kind to be sent their way if you can spare them, and if you have any gods or goddesses that you are on friendly terms with I’d also appreciate any pokes you’d be willing to give them on my family’’s behalf. This shit is getting scary now that the threat of an eruption is so close to town. Thank you, all.

Yikes. Best of luck to all.

Thanks so much guys. The latest updates are that my family got to go into town (along with some 2000 other folks) to get essentials from their houses, so both sis and her fam, and our parents have their essentials, and other valuables that they could gather in time (and my nephew’s hamster), and both reported that there’s no damage to either house. There are some cracks on the outside of my parents’ house, but they don’t seem to be more than surface damage, at least from what my parents could see.
As for the town itself, there’s a crack that’s going through the entire town, and the entire west side of the town has sunk by around one metre. So, that’s an interesting development, and the danger isn’t over yet. But, the scientists are sounding a bit more optimistic that there won’t be an eruption inside the town, although it has not been ruled out completely.

le sigh... Love me some good and well done magical realism… Decided to give the show “Raising Dion” a chance. Got into it, like it, actually quite like it… then watch seven year old with superpowers break into super secret lab to find a bunch of animals that would be exotic in the eyes of a little black kid in the middle of Atlanta, and he goes
”Wow, where do all these animals come from?”
Godfather-mentor-sidekick: “They come from Iceland...” while staring at a pair of sheep in a glass cage.
Me…: “OOooh, yeah, no, they don’t, buddy, those are not Icelandic, and that horse sure as shit ain’t either.”
Magical realism utterly shattered...-

My first reaction was shared disappointment as above. My second reaction was to try hiring Ste7en Foster to redo the audio track—never mind that the show is real-life instead of anime, and that hearing-impaired viewers would become intensely confused since unlike anime lip-flaps, you can read lips in real-life film and video. My third reaction was that some Icelandic rancher must be pissed that some magical ne’er-do-well has stolen all his animals, and that “Gramps” is either a “Dionverse” Auror or in on it. Oh, well...
