I will not talk politics at all. Promise. (hey, a picture isn't talking!)

[stoney321]

So I have picked up a few new people, hello! I want to warn you that I am actually a loveable idiot, but an idiot. I cuss a LOT. I can often be found typing in ALLCAPS in excitement. I do not allow people to be ugly, negative to others, or negative to me here. We chat a lot in comments, which is awesome, but I think people forget that it's not a community, but my actualfax journal. I mean, we are a community, but you know what I mean. Right?

If you have friended this journal in error, no worries! I don't mind people adding/removing me. It's YOUR reading time. And since I am a super busy person in RL, I have to keep my reading list small to keep me sane. I have some OCD about this place and have to read everyone's posts if you're on my list. I don't believe in filters. I mean, I believe they exist, I'm not a crazy person, I just don't want to use them. Mostly I follow people I actually know in RL. But that doesn't mean you can't/shouldn't comment if the spirit moves you! Or don't! Lurk! Defriend! Keep yourself happy, however that works for you.

My sticky post for my journal will tell you more about me here, if you are still curious. (Ha.)

Normally I'm hilarious. Or try to be. Or fail spectacularly. But I'm a positive person, generally, and often make fun of myself. I tag everything, I try not to spam, and I'm a good egg for the most part.

And I write recaps about great shows LIKE REAL HOUSEWIVES OF BEVERLY HILLS, omg it is back. *sobs with joy* Hey, we all need a little diversions in our lives, right? That's one of mine.

I am ASTOUNDINGLY overwhelmed with the response from my post yesterday, to the point where I had to lay down with a cool towel over my eyes from crying with gratitude. I promise that I will try and reply to everyone, because it's incredibly nice for you to be supportive like that. It's going to take me a while, but I will make the best effort at that.

HAVE A GREAT DAY. :)

We're in ur red states, cancelling ur vote! (You said YOU wouldn't talk politics, you didn't say I couldn't!)

Hi, friend-type person! I am so happy at the response your essay has garnered. So many good, good people in the world.

Whatcha havin' for lunch? I am making Bleu Cheese Pear Salad, because I love my entrails, whee!

I have gone full-on Beehive state this week: put my flower beds to bed, made a fall wreath, a T-giving centerpiece (yes silk but shhh I'll recycle that dust trap afore month end) and went to parents' day at the boy's ballet class yesterday and took an album's worth of pics. Ah, Laura, you should see his grand plies! (On my phone, no accent marks, sorry!) I'd feel downright wholesome if I didn't still have Walking Dead gore looping in my head!

Hi! I hope your day is FAB!

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

HELLO MISS SUE. I need lunch, and I have no idea what I'll eat... Nothing as lovely as you're having, unfortunately.

You have been serious Beehive Keepin' Sweet up there! OMG, Walking Dead is still haunting me. I might watch it again, just to really torture myself. :D

Darla! Darla, Darla, Darla!

Also: ♥

[menomegirl.livejournal.com]

Oh my God! What has bleu cheese have to do with entrails???????

[crazydiamondsue.livejournal.com]

LOL, D, I was saying I was eating healthy because I love my guts being healthy!

[menomegirl.livejournal.com]

OH! Phew.

That was scary. :D

*waves* Hi, I am one of the "new" people, although not really because we've both been in kind of the same fandom circles for years now (I remember you from Writercon! In 2006!). I went looking for fellow The Walking Dead fans, and then was so touched reading your post about your son. I have a daughter the same age.

Hope you have a fabulous day!

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

Hi! Oh, Writercon '06... That was so much fun!

Girlfriend, you have a friend in me for Walking Dead talk. I don't have many people here that talk with me about that show, but there's usually a good group of chatter on my recaps, if you want to find more of us. :)

Thank you so much for the sweet wishes, and I hope you and your lovely girl have a great one, too! *hugs you*

Hi, I'm new around here and I found you from kita0610 when she linked to your post about your son. So well-said, that all I will do today is link to it, tell people to read it and then go vote.

Totally agreed about being in your red states, cancelling your votes!

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

Hello! Ha, I'm in a red state doing the same thing. :D

(I was just told by a GREAT website, SkepChick that they're going to publish it tomorrow. That might be a better link since LJ requires a lot of hoops to go through for people to comment to each other?)

I'm just happy that you care, THANK YOU FOR THAT ALONE! (edited to fix broken link)

[dovil.livejournal.com]

I'm new around here. This is where the donkey porn gets posted, right?

Hey, commit voter fraud and stick a vote in for me, wouldya!

LOVES YOU! In a creepy no-boundary kind of way. Ahahahaha! *stares*

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

ONLY MULE PORN WILL BE ACCEPTED YOU CRETINOUS BASTARD. It's hot because they're sterile!

*sings "Sit on my face and tell me that you love me..."*

*GLOMP*

A PICTURE IS WORTH A 1000 WORDS, CHEATER MCSKEETER.

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

*SMISH*

Hahaha, it's WORTH that, yes. But it's only worth what someone will give you for it, AND WE HAVEN'T HIT 1000.

I don't know, math is hard.

Spread the word about your post yesterday in a try to get more readers. :-) Right here (http://kseenaa.livejournal.com/415806.html) (also here (http://kseenaa.dreamwidth.org/1553.html)).

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much! <3

OK, loveable idiocy is great and all, but are there HUGS on this blog? Because I have a strict no no-hugging policy.

;)

(Yeah, it's after midnight, I turn into a crazy pumpkin. How do you feel about crazy pumpkins?)

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

There are NO HUGS on this blog. Hugs are gross and the leading cause of germs in people ages 48 to 119. Also, 68% of statistics are made up.

HELLO CRAZY PUMPKINS ARE AWESOME.
