Good Morning! Good Morning!

[stoney321]

Quick notes, for I shall ACCOMPLISH THINGS TODAY. Which means I need to step away from the 'puter. (Except not, because I want to WRITE. I'll step away from the LJ.)

• Puh. For those of you following a_list_celebs, we were mocking the TomKitten birth AS IT WAS UNFOLDING, hello. Including the secret rituals of nudity and shoe shopping. ...why haven't you added that to your flist?


• I got woken up by big blue eyes, a heart-shaped face, and a big grin. Followed with a gentle arm pat and a whispered, "I want breakfast. Now." She got a few minutes of cuddling, instead.


• Read FIC yesterday! I hardly ever do that anymore. One: Tack's The Boy Who Blocked His Own Shot (again - I never re-read fic!) in the PotC fandom, but IT DOESN'T MATTER. Is most excellent, possibly one of the best pieces of fanfiction I've ever read. And re-read (I never do that!) ely_jan's Xander/Angel fic of darkness, as she posted a new bit yesterday. Get thee hie and read!


• Finally, we've had two straight days of triple digit weather here. HOLY FAHK. Too hot, too soon. Thank you, Canada for sending a cold front our way. Now it's a respectable 78 for a high day, and I am most pleased.

Back to the grindstone! Have a lovely lovely day everyone!!

OMG (http://dauntless-2005.livejournal.com/35964.html)

(yes, I just popped round to ask if you've seen that)

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

Pffft. Like YOU need an excuse to comment. Although.... GUH. I love him EVEN MORE. How can he think he's not a sex symbol? *mind, she boggles*

How are you, my Schmu? Better day? Better head? Have you made the Windows 'splode? :*

...and you know I'm the Jeff to your Steve, right? *spazzes*

[cherusha.livejournal.com]

*flies into Windows-is-as-useless-as-cushions spiel*

*also saves you from doing/saying something stupid*

*is a kind of hero, really*

(That top photo is ridiculously charming. Love the mussed up hair and the pj-like shirt. Love how he's awkward around Hollywood, and omg, now I want a Keira character after reading this.)

*cancels trip to Isle of Lesbos, saves you from being trapped in evil!baby!Susan's snare*
*also saves S4*

*sneaks a bit of a cuddle whilst you're passed out after celebratory drinking*

How much do I love that he hates shopping and the Adam Ant throw out! HAHA!! I had SUCH a crush on Adam Ant in junior high...

(heading out for my run in case it decides to get crazy hot again... back in an hour! :* and :x )

[cherusha.livejournal.com]

I am a dork who had to go google 'Adam Ant'. Hahaha! It makes me oddly happy each time I find out how nice and charming he is because the one in alist is so obviously not.

Enjoy your run, dollie! *waves hanky*

now I want a Keira character after reading this.

I read the article and was like, "I totally want to play Keira."

[cherusha.livejournal.com]

EEEEE!!!

Yes you do. You TOTALLY do!

:D

HI! Emily is so funny. I want breakfast now too. *sees if that gets me snuggles*

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

She is SO CUTE. And she gave a contented little sigh after telling me what to do. ha! *snuggles you up*

Jess... she's too SMALL for that big ol' school! (Finishing up the Kindergarten sign ups today.) She... she can't even open a pudding cup without help yet!!!

*makes you a blueberry and peach smoothie while you practice combing your own hair like a big girl*

[entrenous88.livejournal.com]

Awwww! But the other kids in her class with be her size! *pets Em* Don't they separate them out for recess and lunch? They did that with the niece and nephew at their school, doing the grades separately so that the first-graders weren't sharing the asphalt with the fifth-graders.

Can't open a pudding cup with out help! AWWWWW! That has to be a measure for kindergarten, right? Can she open a pudding cup? No? Okay, another few monthts at home demanding breakfast, being snuggling, and hair-brushing/practicing. *decrees*

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

No! No they won't! She's going to be the youngest in her class and is WEE. She is the wee-est of all the Stoneys! (And yes, the grades are separated out. but! But! She'll require assistance from the lunch "teacher" to pull open her fruti cup, I know it! *cries for her potential spilling and lip quivering*

Whenever I scold her for being naughty, she frowns hard to hide her lip tremble. (Will her new teacher know that means she needs hugs? She needs to be pulled into someone's lap at that point and loved and told she's a good girl, she just did something naughty and mommy still loves her and OH!! *eyes shining*)

I'm not ready yet. :(

[entrenous88.livejournal.com]

Oh, the wee-est! *hugs you* It will be okay, though it will definitely be hard. BUT! All summer for her to grow a little taller, and for you to get ready for her big leap into the world of big kids.

*sigh*

You're so perky. I'm so...murky. Although I did squee about you in southernbangel's LJ last night. Then it devolved into me and marenfic talking about pee and Air Supply. My online life is so...well, shockingly similar to my RL.

I'm hurty (as we discussed) but your exercises sound AWESOME. Isn't ely_jan's story fab? She's one of my top 3 A/X writers. And one of those is me! Hah. Kidding. Really

Kathy and I talked a long time last about how worries about A. I still haven't heard from her, and it's getting freaksome. Does she know she crosses my mind several times a day? (I just sang that to the "Can you read my mind" Lois Lane 'rap' from Superman.)

Goddamn, Laura! I need to get enthused! I don't even have a Tom baby joke. Can't participate. Got NOTHING. I do want to talk about VM, though. I'm having a facial tonight (whee! Maybe rampant girliness with smack my ass back into perkiness) but call after? 8-ish? Good time? Bad time? You know I've had my share.../random Zeppelin.

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

GET FRIGGIN' ENTHUSED! I have no idea how to help you - I'm trying... I'm beaming those happy beams your way, trying to bring you funny... What can I do? DO you just need to gird up your loins and dive in? I swear, that ALWAYS works for me. Just go chasing the happy, you know? Hmmmmmm.

(I miss her, too, and hope she's okay...)

Facials are of the greatness! I think. I've never had one. Eww! My face is gross, huh? I need to just buckle down and do something for myself instead of always feeling guilty about that stuff.

I am laughing my ass off at the "Lois Lane" rap. THe use of the word "RAP" is what's killing me. Off to make Cruise bone Kate! Or something. :D

It's been below the frost mark the past three mornings (instead of 38 and sleeting) and gotten into the high sixties in the afternoon, which is the kind of weather that native NW plants thrive in but everyone else hates.

How ever, tripple digits outside the controlled confines of a sauna is against my deepest beliefs.

Chasing cows today (first round lepto, clostridiuum, and BVD for the cows, booster clostridiuum and bvd and first lepto for calves, wormer for all). I am less than enthralled with the prospect.

Julia, especially the part about running the drench tube.

FROST. Frost. I... I cannot identify. Currently it is a sensible 74, have just made a quick tour of the roses, turned a few Katydids into Katy-don'ts, plugged up a new hole I've discovered to a secret warren in my compost heap, pulled the Evil Cat back from burrowing in after an Early Supper...

I like relating your bovine exploits to my BFF, Chrissy, who is currently performing similar tasks with equines, of a fiesty, throroughbred nature. She says she'll take the cows any day. (This marks the fifth time she's been trampled by a skittish mare.)

"Thank you, Canada for sending a cold front our way."

You are very welcome!

[midnightsjane.livejournal.com]

It's totally our pleasure.
Could you send us some sunshine please? Fair exchange, eh?

[ely-jan.livejournal.com]

Thanks, darlin! *is all grinny pants*

*brings you cold compresses*
