Scar tissue

I just saw a documentary about breast reduction. It was highly interesting and made me think. They didn't go very indepth, in terms of side effects/what could go wrong, though when one of the women that were involved in the documentary collapsed after her surgery and nearly died ... Yeah, it's not as easy as having a knife cut off some flesh and a needle stitch the rest of it together again. You're being anaesthetized, complications can arise during/after surgery, there's the risk for infection, if you do make it through there's still the chance you'll not be satisfied with the results. And there's the emotional aspect. I can't begin to imagine what it does to your psyche to have gone through something like that, especially if you've suffered for a long time because of having large breasts. And at the same time it can be such a blessing. Those with abnormally big chests will be relieved from constant backpains/general difficulties in life. Some will get a boost in confidence that they couldn't achieve on their own. When it's done, and they're happy with the results, they can move on (hopefully). Man, this really fuddled up my brain. But I'm glad I saw it.

Because Shin's name suggestion was too good to pass up

The little Pikachu in the background image will now be known as 'Sparky' ! Seeing as I'm being silly and getting attacks of shyness on AIM, I'll ask James here if he'd be willing to sacrifice some of his time to help me with something artsy related. A banner of sorts. Sort of. Brum. Thank you James. I'll get back to you *prepares* Chocolate and milk is quite possibly the nicest thing to nibble on. Listening to Darren Hayes while doing so is even nicer. What would make it even nicer-er is if the mail would do what it's supposed to. Preferably quicker than it is right now.

O.o

Yipes, I sure didn't expect that ammount of response to the change. LOL. It's been said before and it's worth repeating: You guys are awesome !! One awesome gal in particular is Lady Kei and she's up next in the Literati Square ! After choosing a word, color and position, you have a choice between the numbers: 3, 4, 6 and 9 *cheesy grin, a la gameshow host* *responds to comments* Badness: *just grins* Hehehehe. Solo: Ah, Sheep will return. In some form and with a name ~_^ Ben: You know, I've seen many episodes of Pokémon but that episode has always eluded me ;___; Sarah: Right back at ya, Sugar :-* I'm still envious you got to see them live >> Solo: *gasp* Ah well, Scyther got his serving later :p Mr AJ: Awww, I'll let you off the hook for hating Pikachu ~_^ Lady Kei: *huggles tightly back* I learn from the best around here ;) Ooo, you're up for the Literati Square :o Alex: Wow, that is mighty praise *blush* Thank you ^__^ Jeh: Hehe, I do my best .. in a very innocent way 0:) MistressRoxie: *waves* Hey there ^__^ Thanks for the lovely compliment, tee hee. And Pikachu does rock socks >:D Sara: *blows kisses* You're earthquake material yourself ;D Zaurak: Whee, spread the giddyness ! *hugs* Panda: I am now very envious of you too ! There is no end to the goodness of Panda ^___^ Rustym: Thank you ^_^ Hehe, when I looked at your avi, I imagine your Monkey being all upset over Pikachu not sharing the ketchup *giggles* >> Juu: Eeeee, you just gave me a new favourite word ! Fwar *says it over and over again* Mwuah to you, Lovely ^_^ Baron: Hehehe, yeah. You'll have to use all of your stealthyness to come here now >:p Sheep will return, don't fret ^_^ Shinny: ..... *confers with Pikachu* .... No :p Barooooooon: Go to 'Edit Styles'. Instead of giving it hex codes, just type something in the boxes. Just leaving them blank won't work. If you need visuals, I could always take a screenshot or something ^_^ DDG: Indeed ! Behold the cuteness of Pikachu and his ketchup bottle :D Angel: Thank you, thank you :-* It would've been weird if it came off saultry or something O.o;;; SG: *clears throat* Well, I'm loving it the more I look at it :D Pikachu sure helps to put a smile on my face, hehe. And the yellowness feels cheery *^__^* CSS Master Desbreko: *dies from blushing* Thanks for the flattery ~_^ And I'll be sure to send the original over to you ^_^ Preston: *slaps him* Feel better now ? XD And in other news, yesterday I stole Adam's Pants!! Life is pretty good to me ;p "If I had sheep I wouldn't make them eat brussels sprouts."

Ahum

Hehe, this isn't the layout I was thinking of but I'm on a mission. That mission is to make Badness as happy as I possibly can. Because she's worth it :-* Hopefully some other people will be cheerful by the yellow and Pikachu *glances at Mistress and Hotness* The midi isn't matching at all because it was meant for the actual layout change I had in mind. It's fitting enough to stay until that happens though. ('Somebody' - Depeche Mode, for those who don't recognise it.) Feel the Pikachu love, people.

Finally

Thanks to the wonderful CSS Master Desbreko, I now understand how to get everything transparent and should be able to actually utilize my next layout idea ^_^ (It doesn't involve Sailor Moon, no.) Basically all you had to do was go to 'Edit Styles' and instead of putting in hex codes, just write something. I chose to write 'blah' XP You're brilliant Des! Solo, I forgot to say that you have the numbers 3, 4, 6, 8 and 9 to choose from.

To Panda with Love

Pandaness Found that while searching for something completely different, lol. I'm still deciding on the Sheep's name, so if you've got more name suggestions *points to comment box* EDIT: Whoa, I finally got the background to stay fixed :O!!! .... now I just need to figure out how to get everything else transparent -_- And then I might change the layout again.... Queen Asuka is still ill :( So I'll let someone else do a word for the Literati Square in the meantime. *pm's said person* The Lovely Sarah contributed a word and passed on the torch to Solo

Say my name, say my name

"You're acting kind of shady, ain't calling me baby" ---- Hrm. Anyway. My point wasn't to burst into Destiny's Child songs, but to ask for help in finding a name for the Sheep. (Yes, kind of like what Solo did with his Wasp.) So let your imaginations loose and fire away !

The shaking of the fist - and the Booty ;p

Ok, I'll answer the questions later, write PM's and catch Azure on AIM for our work. But right now I must catch a train to a nearby town because dad is too lame to drive me there and if I can't get what I need to get I will be in serious ... state-age. Yes. I'm going through serious withdrawal from the one thing that kept my withdrawal in check >> *runs to catch train* a few hours later All is well. Balance has once again been restored in the Universe. I am in possession of said ellusive item and not a moment too soon >>;;; I also saw 7-8 birds of prey on the train journey O_____O Questions ! hEvN What's the most daring thing you've ever done? o.O The most daring thing I've ever done, and also the one that I was the least afraid doing, was going all alone to England and hang out with Solo and meet his family. Baron Samedi What...is...the... ... probably outcome of the Australian elections, [which voting commences today]? Answer: I don't care >>;;;; EDIT: To prove that I do love you, Baron, I've found out who won. It was John Howard and this is his 4th term of office (*looks bewildered at the dictionary*) in a row. The vote came to 82, in favour of Mr. Howard, out of 152. Mark Latham was his opponent and he's been a party leader for only 10 months. He's now preparing for the next time the Australians get ready to vote again. See ? I do love you ~_^ Panda Do you/Have you/Can you... -Wiggle your ears? Ehm, no. And I reached that conclusion after trying XD -Hang a spoon from your nose? Never tried O.o -Burp your name? There's a fantastic family joke about burping a name, but that's for another time. I'm sure I've tried to, after dinner when I was younger... -Played Strip Poker? Nope 0:) -Pat your head and rub your belly at the same time? Actually, yes :D Not for long though. I lose concentration rather quickly and start to wonder what I'm doing O_O;;; -Do a backflip off a diving board? Noooo. Just jumping off it the ‘normal’ way is enough for me >>;;; -Do the Hokey-Pokey or Chicken Dance? Chicken Dance ! -Played Spin the Bottle? That would be such a fun game to play. And also the only reason for moving to America ;p -Gone Cow Tipping? LOL………… Tempting, but their tongues scare me. -Gone Streaking? Baron does that much better than me, so I let him take care of that ~_^ -Stolen candy from a store? *thinks* No, though I almost did once because the cashier didn't see me (I was a wee kid) and I got upset (we all know kids hate being invisible), decided to not give her my money and just leave. My dad talked me out of it and signalled to the cashier, who was then nice enough to charge me for my goods -_- -Know the difference between stalactites and stalagmites? One is formed from drops falling down and the other is… it… NGH, I was in a cave once where they told us about this >_< *sobs* and last but not least: -What is a "zhu xiong"? Oooooo, that rings a bell so loud that it makes me want to sit down in a desk and take a maths test *___* You'll have to tell me *begs* Shinmaru What's your favorite type of floor? Glad you asked, Shin. I like many types of floors. In our house there's linoleum as far as the eye can see. Solo had … carpets (there's another word for there being carpets all over, I know) everywhere, which was nice and fluffy to walk on. Stone/slate floors are rather cool too and pure old floorboards are very nice looking. OOOoooo and some floors have central heating under them, which must be good in the mornings. Hm, my favourite (*rebels spelling*) type of floor would have to be the ones I don't have to clean and that you don't have to worry about scratching. (Because marks from roller blades are a pain to get rid of >> ) Sara *rolls eyes* What's your favorite word? You are such an angel for wanting to know that *bats eyelashes* It would have to be ‘cuddle/huggle/snuggle’. Basically the same word, just different ways of saying it. ‘Snog’ has become a favourite lately, as well. It's just so fun and … nice O.o I'm gonna try to bring back the 'Literati Square'. Provided that Queen Asuka takes some time out of her busy schedule and gives me the next word/where to put it/in which color. I didn't want to keep pushing it, nor did I want to just skip her. Either felt rather rude and I like Miss Asuka, so upsetting her is not in my agenda. And during my trip to regain my control over double-withdrawal, I found something that was too good to pass up. Hopefully that should be revealed soon ~_^ Aaaaa, now to get on AIM !

Hehehehe

My mom just came home after spending her last gruelling week in school. She is now a licensed "Skin Therapist" or whatever the term is. We'll celebrate tomorrow, so she'll get a chance to relax and come down from all that built up tension. Sometime today my younger sister will come by and stay the night, making sure she doesn't miss out on the cake that will be available tomorrow ~_^ It'll be good to catch up with her again. We always have a blast together when she comes around :D And by the end of next week (probably) Badness will be fully convinced that I am mad. It's all good though ;p Polishing touches on my re-invention of the Sheep (together with Azure) should take place this weekend, so watch this space for more news ^_^ Hm, I'll leave the floor open now *braces herself* PS: The floor was open to questions, not to fall through *laughs at Shin's wonderful sense of humour* And I am about to die from withdrawal of something I can get my hands on tomorrow the earliest. It might have to wait longer than that if I'm unlucky ;__; Oh well, it's worth it ~_^
