Hive For The Holidays!

[Blackrat]

Woo! Please read! And leave comments so that my players will believe that people are actually reading it!

Morning, Hive. Just.

Oh, it's not enough that I comment here is it? Oh, well, have to remember to comment there too then .

ARGHHH!!! I hate hate hate it when the newspapers use stupid words meant to make them easier for common people to understand. "Manslaughter with a Samurai-sword!" Yes, that is a Katana he used, and yes those were historically used by the Samurai, but "Samurai-sword" is not a real word. It's a "KATANA" or simply a "SWORD". How hard can it be to spell?

Damn. Needed to vent the steam there. Rant over

Had your coffee yet?

I used to be highly active in Story Hour but stopped because of the lack of comments from people. Folks only wanted to talk about 3-4 SH and ignore the rest.


Sucks. I thourghly enjoyed doing them but with no support the effort involved began to be too much.

Now I work on them and I fizz out within 4-10 segments because of lack of interaction.

Good morning hive. Or I guess afternoon, since I guess well....it is after...noon.

Had a weird dream. I dreamt I went up to the North Pole and asked Santa to be one of his helpers until he had to retire, turns out he already needed a replacement. I used the magic of Christmas to bring joy to those who had none, those who were in troubling times and even my sister managed to follow me and saw me transform into Santa. She wanted my nephew to sit on my lap. He and I shared a long hug and then my sister took him home.

Not sure what this was supposed to mean. Then again, I did go to bed right after watching Sanctuary.

Watching too much The Santa Clause maybe....?

Weird but break it down. Dreams have meaning (often hidden and cryptic)

1) Holiday season thus Santa as a theme

2) You have always cared for others over yourself

3) Often you wish you could do more for others than you do

4) Love the nephew and always want to "wow" him

5) Play that satanic mind warping "game" called Dungeons & Dragons

I wouldn't beat yourself up for this one. I wish my dreams revealed a better version of myself.

Hah, comment wherever you like. But like mega said, it's really nice if you leave comments on people's SH's when you read them. I know it gives me a warm tingly happy glow when I see someone has enjoyed something I've written.

Been doing a rather large speck of cleaning. At least now I can walk over to my desk without having to take rather large steps. Thats a good thing, especially when you're holding a rather large cup of coffee in your hand(s).

So, not necessarily enjoying my weekend, but at least I feel relaxed.

Relaxed is good.

I wish it only took me one day to clean the hobby room. I'm mostly there after several weekends and a few morning. The room is usable again anyway.

Oh, I know this. It's that human thing, what's it called... Wait, wait, don't tell me... Emotions? Yeah, that's what it was called, right? Highly inefficient. We Borg don't have those.



Yeah, I'll try to remember that .

The first volume included everything before season of mists. So yeah... it was a disturbing read. At least everything that happens from the start of Season of Mists isn't as sanity draining.

It clearly marked the series as a mature readers book. But as disturbing as it seemed it seemed to work. Some writers would've done that very differently and with a different artist it would have been more about the sex and violence than the story.

The larger editions are too heavy. I like Holding the books up as I read them but then my arms get too tired due to the size of those volumes.

That and I like eating cheetos and not worrying about it. Hardcovers cost so much more that I fret about getting them dirty / to read them. Paperbacks are meant to be read over and over.

I have the first edition paperback of Watchmen. I've read it cover to cover about 20 times and have leant it out to others on several occations. It is intact but has tears, cuts, smudges and obvious signs of use.

Me.... I'm not a borg.


I am one of the few
the proud
the terminators

Sometimes I feel that cold and want to just go around and destroy everything as I wipe out the one person that has caused me the most grief.

So what has Frued got to say about that?

Take two aspirin and call in the morning?

Hi there hive, long-time lurker, occasional poster.

I made a decent stew tonight with sausage, potatoes, and tomatoes; very simple, but very filling. After dinner I saw Despereaux. I enjoyed it, but clearly a kid's movie.

Tomorrow is work again. I have been off work for 2 weeks; working for schools rocks. It's hard going back though.

*leaves some stew in the hive before heading off to bed*

Thankyou for the stew. I wonder if any is left?

Sometimes I wonder what would have happened if things worked out and I had become a teacher. Vacations (of which you do lesson plans / work on Masters) come often and you never worry about school delays and the such with work.
