The 24- Hour Cool Thing/Stuff That Happened Today Thread....

ROFLMFJAO!!!!!!!! Gods, that is hysterical. (And would work soooo well as a sketch)

*Puts (c)2006 "sign" on idea. LOL

 

Cool thing: getting some leather for free from a friend for making falconry equipment

Cooler thing: finding $20 stuck between the driver's seat and console in my car. SWEEET!

 

Not bad! Definitely not bad!

 

NEW AIDE!!!!!!! Ole Escaped-from-the-9-Depths-of-Hell Aide is RETIRED AND GONE. New, fun, helpful and KNOWLEDGEABLE Aide is AWSOME!!!!

Also, kitchen may only be down one month instead of until end of Dec. Finally a light at the end of the tunnel that isn't a train bearing down.

 

Congrats on the new aide, Master K!
I hope this one works out much better than the other.

And yay for kitchen remodeling!

 

I found a penny today!

 

Wow. Did you actually expend the energy to bother picking it up?

 

I would! Heck, it burns calories and I'm $0.01 closer to my MR saber!

 

Yes, pick the penny up then drop it in the charity box.

 

Looking at getting a new car!!!! (Don't worry, the Starfighter is still in the works using the Nissan Frontier)... BUT, finally gonna get a "semi-sports" car.

 

Good thing - Angels going 2-0 against the Yankees!

Oh, and I found another penny!

 

Ok, today is actually involving a fair amount of the pissy and of the yucky. But! While I was compiling the mailing list for our non-profit's autumn mailing appeal, I found the name I based my Board name off of!

Original spelling was "Vandecarr"...but the "Kai" part was the same! I had misremembered and thought I got the name from two separate ones and jammed them together. Apparently not. Hee!

- Kai

 

I got accepted into the work study program at school!!!!!! And I have a job interview with a company for a possible internship in CDD on Friday!!!!!

 

Congrats! Good luck, GJP!

 

Let us know how it goes!

 

CONGRATS!!! I know how much this means to you!!!

 

Prancing Pony Players at Worldcon!

The inimitable Kel (our Merry and Arwen) has posted video and audio of our 2 half-hour performances at Worldcon!!! If you want to see or hear the stupendous stupidity and silliness that is us, check out the link, here:

We do not guarantee perfect choreography (not hardly, in fact!), nor perfect singing (especially in my case!). But we can guarantee that WE, at least, had a lot of fun...and it seemed like our audience did, too.

How cooool!! I'll have to watch/listen when I get home from work, but the pics are awesome. Nice ring, Kai.

 

Why, thank you!

"Nice ring, Kai. Compensating for something?"

LOL!

 

Woohoom finally sent off the stuff for Galactic PLayground in Oct to sort our our booth and the lightsaber duel! You should all come check it out if you can, should be a fun day out!

 

ROFLMJAO!!!

ONLY one of my FAV Queen songs....



....And I SPY WITH MY LITTLE EYE....

A few pirates, A blacksmith in drag, The ENTIRE Royal Navy and the Entire Royal Navy's Commander....


Good to see the Hobbits (and Elves) and the little Orc back in business.

Sooo RING envy is it, Mr. Frodo?

 

So a little bright spot in my otherwise worrisome Thursday *glances at MasterK*

This morning I found this behind some mouse cages...

About a foot long and very feisty. I felt like Steve Irwin herding him into a large trash can with the lid with him curling and striking at whatever he could reach (nothing but my pant leg). We took him out to the orchard behind some buildings where he can eat all the mice he can catch and grow big and even more dangerous.*

*note: California King Snakes are not poisonous and I have some experience with these snakes and was very very very careful and had other people around at all times.

 

Right On!!! (Unlike one of my alter-egos... I LOVE Snakes and Reptiles of all kinds!!!)

 

I love critters of most any kind. That's a lovely California Kingsnake. May he or she have a happy long life, eating vermin.

Look Who Showed Up In My Mailbox Yesterday!

(My real mailbox, not my email...)

Brian Ching is one of the principal artists for the Knights of the Old Republic Comics. I met him briefly (while in Revan costume) at the Dark Horse booth at Comic-Con. He said, "Great costume! I owe you a sketch for that!"

Wow!

Just...wow!

Everybody, go forth and buy Knights of the Old Republic comics! Because he's a cool guy! And a great artist! And besides, the comics are awesome, they really are!
