Canderous and Cade's Crazy Cantina: a shiny new fanfiction social thread!

You pulled it off quite well Briannakin!

 

That is a friend of both mine and the bride's. She actually goes to school in Kenya., but she's back in town for the summer since she has like 4 weddings to go to. Two bridesmaids needed to go down together since there weren't enough groomsmen so we said we would. As we were going down the aisle we were swearing at each-other under our breaths to make the process more bearable and we spent most of the prep-work yelling Doctor Who references at each other.

Edit: thanks K'tai

 

My daughter is now old enough for an account here. I'm sitting across the room as she signs up for it now. I can't possbily be old enough to have a teenager in the house.

 

Pre-registration hello to your daughter!

And an update on Mammaw: She started therapy today, so she was standing. However, she's refusing to take her medication, and she refused breakfast this morning. Now is not the time to start being stubborn, Mammaw!

 

Glad your grandmother is recovering, TrakNar! Stubornness can sometimes be good in those situations... but hopefully she'll start taking her medications and eating!

Thanks for sharing pics, Briannakin! You looked fantastic!

I know I said a while back I wanted to do something to my hair and I finally decided I didn't want to chop it all off, so I dyed it red the other day. Because my hair is so naturally dark (and I didn't want to bleach it first) it doesn't look crazy red but it is a big change from dark brown.

 

I'll need to take the clippers to my head again soon. Perhaps I'll go a bit shorter this time, ease myself into Professor X baldness.

 

mavjade: You gonna try to go as Mara Jade Skywalker?

 

Hi Mom!! To be honest I'm still in transition mode to being an official teenager (sometimes when asked my age I still say I'm 12).

 

TrakNar - Good to hear that your grandmother is recovering.

mavjade - The hair color sounds cool! I'm thinking of dying mine a subtle purple in about a week. Just something fun for the summer.

 

Hi dear.

 

One of my coworkers who just started reading the Thrawn Trilogy asked me that the first day he saw me with the red. It's not quite the right color for that... but I don't mind to comparison. I would like to cosplay as Mara one of these days though.

Go for it! I started to do the underlayer of my hair purple and the top red, but I decided I didn't quite trust my self dying skills for that yet.

 

Welcome to the board, Charity Rose!

 

Thank you! TrakNar

 

Welcome aboard, Charity Rose. I recommend a berth in the guinea pullman.

Findswoman: You're lucky to have a good kid. I was an...interesting specimen at that age. Hope you and the Findshusband have a good time.

mavjade: If you ever do, you gotta put up a picture!

 

When I was four, doctors were telling my folks that I was severely mentally retarded and would need to be institutionalized. :/

Anywho, I have an early day tomorrow, so I'd better get to bed.

 

Welcome to the boards Charity Rose!

Mav, that sounds like an awesome dye job. I thought about dying my hair (it's been my natural colour for almost a year now - which is some sort of record for me) but I've decided against it - it's actually looking really healthy now.

Sorry Trak, I got you beat, my parents were told that (after I was supposed to die) I would be completely brain dead. Some people still though I was brain dead at age 4. I was a creepily silent kid.

Speaking of brain dead, I think I might be. I lost my laptop and it took me an hour to find it. This is why I hate packing!!!!!

 

When you have finished The Shadow over Innsmouth I can recommend tracing down the only piece of music to leave Innsmouth: Ogham Waite and the Amphibian Jazz Band

 

Goodwood: Can you explain what the guinea pullman is? Charity Rose is completely confused and too shy to ask.

 

K'Tai qel Letta-Tanku: Hee-hee.

On the old Wickes-class of World War I-era four-stacker destroyers, the aft crew quarters was often referred to as the "guinea pullman," at least within the U.S. Asiatic Fleet.

 

Mammaw has been moved back to the nursing home, so she's out of the hospital. We're going to try and get in to see her this weekend, probably Sunday.

 

TrakNar: I hope she's feeling better...and maybe not being so stubborn.

 

hugs Findswoman

I think you may have needed that.

 

Findswoman: Sorry Monday put on a Friday costume and came to visit. Hope tomorrow will be better!
