We had a bad thunderstorm this afternoon. It shook the freaking house!!

Surprise at work today... I got a small raise.

They are very satisfied with my working spirit and how I managed to find my way. They know they dropped me into the deep end of the pool but I passed the test with flying colors.

My response is one for the facepalm history books though: "Already? "

I was just surprised and then I couldn't help but grin.

Congratulations!!!!

Fic is the best!! It's strange that for some media, I'm all about fic where for others I have no desire to read it. And it's not necessarily just stuff I didn't like the outcome for. I love reading Hunger Games stories even though I am perfectly content with how that ended. *shrugs*

Exactly! I like reading Sailor Moon fanfic for the same reason.

Dragons ARE cool.

Yep. I'll never say no to dragons.

Thank goodness there's always fanfic. Although I've never even been able to read post-Endgame fic...my heart's just not in it anymore. Oh well. Post-Lifeline and post-S5 SGA fic has been much more satisfying, however.

Honestly, the first 4-5 seasons are good, mainly because they had finished books to work from for the storylines. They were given an outline of how everything was going to end up, but not fully fleshed out books, so they fudged on the details and dropped storylines that were probably going to significantly factor into the final book but they didn't have the imagination to figure out how to do it, which is why a lot of stuff later on feels so half-@$$ed.

But hey...DRAGONS.

Good morning, Sparkies! Happy Sparky!Family Saturday!

Right???? Noooo, thank you. And I want a warm shower, and indoor plumbing. So sure, camping, but at like a hotel.

Glamping. Yup.

This is true. *glomps you* You were done dirty with Endgame. So, so dirty. At least, with Ted Lasso being a comedy and all, no one died. And the fix-it fics are already coming out.

I was actually going to watch Game of Thrones, then I heard about the dumpster fire of Season 8. I dodged a bullet on that one.

LOL at your mom's reaction! That's just too funny! I'd never be able to camp anymore, the bugs alone would drive me crazy.

I understand, believe me. It's how I still feel after Avengers Endgame. And probably how a lot of us still feel after Lifeline. *sporks M&M*

David Benioff and D.B. Weiss, the executive producers of Game of Thrones. Or Dumb and Dumber, as some of us like to call them after the dumpster fire they made of Season 8 (and even before that).

The first one could also be the last one... so I will need all the luck I can get.

When it'll be I don't know yet, but I'll be sure to report on it on my Insta.

Looking forward to the pics and stories!!

Good luck on your camping trip, FH!!

Good morning, Sparkies! Happy Pretty Friday!

Good luck on your camping trip, FH!! There's not enough ice cream in the world to make me camp ever again. The last time I went, with Girl Scouts, I was like 13 or 14. I had my first panic attack. I didn't know what it was at the time, only that I felt really sick. And then the minute I left the camp ground, all my symptoms went away mysteriously. When I told my mom I didn't want to camp anymore, she was so damn happy. She later said she wanted to get out of the car and kiss the ground. I was her late in life baby and she'd already been a scout leader through 3 other children.

I need the *hugs*, thank you. I feel like I'm in mourning. Which is silly. It's only a show. But it's still how I feel.

Anywho, who are D&D??

Ouch! I am so sorry to hear that. *hugs* I guess the showrunners went to the same school as M&M and D&D.

Good morning, Sparkies! Happy Fluffy Thursday!

Camping gear list: I can check the tent off the list.

Friend of my best friend ordered one and got 4 mailed to her. I'm adopting one of hers for a small price (lower than it actually costs but I promised to buy her an icecream at one of our future hikes).

Ice cream is always good!

Good morning, Sparkies! Happy Screw the Angst Wednesday!

And now I'm going to rant about the Ted Lasso finale. Not only did my ship not sail, but they baited the hell out of us shippers in the last episode. To the point where I saw many non-shippers online acknowledging that we'd been baited and saying they are so sorry to us. I'm so freaking angry, you can't imagine it. If they'd just not let the ship happen, but ended the show in an organic way, I would have been sad but I'd have gotten over it. But the blatant baiting was downright cruel. I mean, the very first scene led you to think they'd hooked up, only to then play a switch out. When I saw that, I was like OH MAN! But it also made me hopeful, because they wouldn't tease us like that and NOT pay it off, right? Wrong.

Ouch! I am so sorry to hear that. *hugs* I guess the showrunners went to the same school as M&M and D&D.
