Kelvics


1. They are animals. They have animal thoughts. They lick their butts and sniff crotches and probably eat out of the trash happily. I'm sure they also like to roll in that mysterious yard guck that's a slimy green that no one knows what it is.

2. They have basic needs. If they get hungry, they go find food. If they get tired, they sleep.

3. They do not understand complex scenarios until after they have bonded and borrowed their bondmate's desires and human intellect. They can be pretty smart on their own, but that smart needs to be animal smart, not clever ladder climbing corporate smart.

4. Kelvics would probably rather chew up a cell phone than puzzle out what its for and actually be able to dial it. Oh wait... Mizahar has no cell phones. SO STOP USING THEM IN AVATARS FOLKS! Cant you get stock photos someplace better?

5. This is not that hard. Read the kelvic page once in a while if the knowledge starts to slide from your brain.

Couple Of Things This Morning


  • Chai Tea Latte's and Chocolate Susan Cookies make the best breakfast.
  • I forgot how much I love Dusk's sense of humor. Even if shes hellishly busy and we dont' see her for months on end, she's always got a place here.
  • I am jealous of all the cool plotnotes and of Katie for having the idea. I'm usually jealous of Katie, but she makes it okay when she lets me stand next to her and bask in the glow of her brilliance and actually talks to me.
  • Tabernac is evil. He just has everyone fooled.
  • My back hurts. I need to go back to the Chiropractor whom I have a crush on every time he gets a hold of me and makes pain go away.
  • I love Kavala. I so enjoyed November and getting hardcore into rp with her. I need to get busy with my alt and stop letting cool people like Will and Celeste down.
  • I have a crush on Celeste. If we were guys it'd be a bromance. She lights up my day. I don't mind saying this since almost none of you know who Celeste's personas are on here. :P She's funny, sweet, hellishly artistic, smart as a whistle, and flat out nice. Its so hard to find nice people.
  • I miss writing for Tarot and his pcs. I need to get our writing together into overdrive. He's by far _the best_ player I've ever rp'd with in terms of not missing the cues and redefining stubborn. He can't play non-stubborn PCs. I should enjoy this more since often I write with people that miss the subtle things or AKA skim. (Yes Hadrian, that's a dig on you).
  • I'm annoyed that I make two semi-provocative banners for the site and the site ALWAYS shows them a million times more than the ones I made (and others have made) that I think are just flat out gorgeous.
  • Someone loves Karunesh. That' makes me happy. There's zero people on this site that even remotely have the same taste in music as I do so this makes me happy in a thousand fold ways.
  • People are being courageous enough to stand up to their abusive/using friends. They don't know it, but it gives me great pleasure watching shy terrified-of-what-people-think women come slowly into their own, grow a set and be confident beautiful leaders on this site and in their real life. They don't realize it, but the people that torment them the most are bringing this about so it just shows me even though they are going through hell, the hell is not for naught because its tempering their personality in ways playing it safe in a warm loving -mom and dad actually like me- place can't. They'll look back and someday see this in a 'ah hah' moment of clarity probably as they rock their grand babies on their lap and laugh at their children's own predicaments.
  • I have a ton to do on this site today - HD, PMs, Various AS Coordination s- but all I want to do is write for myself. Selfishness is a lot like Chai Tea Latte's and Susan cookies for breakfast - delicious but not much good for you.

Be selfish, and have a chai tea. We know how hard you work Jen, plus I agree fundamentally with one of your points. Tabernac is evil. (Sorry! :P)

  • I am the left hand of God. Katie's the fluffy bunny right hand. Now feed me your soul!
  • Please, I don't skim. I just have my characters react in a manner true to their concept and psychology. You and GP just need to remember that Hadrian isn't a hero and will not react like one.
  • When Katie lets you stand next to her, you should feel good because it's a physical reminder that it could always be worse. You could be an albino dwarf. Albeit with an impressive rack.

Also, I sent this to Heatherly the other day as a possible musical reference for Eypharian Semhu, but this time I actually watched the video again and decided that it is Denval expressed in sexy Asturian bagpipes. I danced to this song once, now if I could just get that a-hole from LA to send me the footage...

  • I am not an albino dwarf. I’m black Irish Catholic adorable bunny. Get it right, Dani.
  • Jen can stand next to me anytime. We’ll pass the flask back and forth.
  • Hadrian will be a hero whether you want him to be or not, damnit! Get with it! Don’t make me come after you with a cape!
  • I want cookies for breafkast like whoa.
  • Now I’m jealous of Jen. I mean I was already jealous of her forum SMITE powers, but hell.

Missoula Montana Friday Night


A friend sent me this picture from Friday Night Lights in Missoula, Mt this week. I thought it was probably the best picture anyone's taken of the city at night. Gorgeous and kudos to Mark Payton for taking it. Awesome job... makes me homesick, just a little, for such a lovely place. Here's a link to his photostream on Flickr. Missoula has a big M on Mt. Sentinel, which is what's lit up in the foreground (but upside down like a W since Mr. Payton is standing above it shooting down at the city) It overlooks the University of Montana campus. I've hiked this hill more times than I can ever begin to count and I've jumped off it once and flew like a bird.
