Today's my baby brother's birthday. He would have been 23. :( I miss him.

Good morning I've spent too much money this month someone needs to take away my wallet.

At least the beads I put on my PayPal with Christmas money. 🤣


(Ugh, I was logged out again! Wyd Voltra?)

@Wildfire: Sounds like you had a pretty nice day then! At least after dealing with the dog's "gift." ^^;

Thank you! I'm pretty proud of how the badge came out, lol. And yeah, I just found the shirt and really wanted it, and decided to have some fun with it. I'll likely wear it just as a normal like over-shirt sometimes too but it'll be fun to do it up as a whole thing. I know there's an anime convention out here, I think in August? Maybe by then I'll have put together enough of it to go dressed up then, if I can afford to go. 🤔


@Wildfire: Oh no, that sucks! :( I hope your day has improved from there at least!

Mine's been pretty boring really. I did design a neat "employee badge" for a cosplay I'm putting together though! It's an Five Nights At Freddy's: Security Breach inspired "Monty's Gator Golf" employee. I found this really neat shirt and fell in love with it, and with a payment plan I can just swing it, so I got it and I'm planning some other bits and bobs to go with it. I found some cheap light green Converse-like sneakers on Amazon that I can paint the white bits dark green and replace the laces with purple ones. And then I'm going to add a lanyard with the employee badge I made and like, character buttons.




I'm excited about it all; I haven't really put together a cosplay before, not even a simple one like this one. But this is a fun casual cosplay I can like, wear to the mall or something, lol.


@Wildfire: I don't really like canned vegetables either... which is why mine often end up in the trash can while my roommate isn't looking. I take my vitamin gummies and I eat other stuff but canned green beans I just. Sometimes I can't stomach them. ^^;

@Wildfire: I have a stomachache again and despite that this post has made me SO hungry, omG. That all sounds positively fantastic and I'm jealous of your variety! It's hard to get my roommate to try new things so we almost always end up with the same few. I like zucchini and yellow squash when cooked decently (and not just boiled as used to be my roommate's go-to, blech) but it gets boring having just that or canned veggies all the time. I think I'll push for some brocolli and cauliflower next time we go to Aldi; we haven't had either of those in ages. And more mushrooms. I love mushrooms and can happily add them to almost anything I make, lol.

...Hours later I've noticed I never hit submit on this post. Oops.


@Wildfire: Rofl nothing wrong with rambling I suppose. And my stomach's doing okay at the moment, but it was pretty bad early yesterday and a bit in the evening and the only pepto I could find in the fridge was like two years old. So now I've got a fresh bottle to last a while. :D

Goodness, you are keeping busy! Which I mean, to some extent is a good thing, but yike, lol. I need to vacuum, too, but today is my roommate's day off and I don't want to disturb her rare (for this time of year at least) chill time. I think it's our houseguest's turn to cook tonight. Probably chicken legs, which honestly I really dislike and would rather just go hungry than eat most times. XP But we've got 'em so we gotta eat 'em eventually.

We also really need to get some fresh vegetables; we've only had canned recently and I'm a little sick of freaking green beans and (for some reason we had several cans of) creamed corn, which I don't really like in the first place. Love corn, just not creamed corn. I think it's a texture thing.

And yeah, it's the back of my thumb. No clue what I did. At least it's not bleeding or anything. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯


@Wildfire: And all before noon! Sounds like enough to me, wow.




Oh crud. What I thought was a crease in my hand from carrying stuff in turns out to be a scrape instead. Oops. Wonder how I managed that.


I got the 16 ounce bottle lmao. Should last me a while since I fortunately don't need it as much as I once did--there was a time where I had to use it so much to get by that I didn't even use the measuring cup because I could measure a dose by taking it straight from the bottle. ^^;;;;

My stomach was decidedly not well at the time.

On the bright side, Walgreens had a buttload of Christmas M&Ms leftover for some reason and they were on sale for like half price. :D


@Wildfire: Oh gosh, sounds like fun. ^^;

The only plans I have so far are to run by walgreens to get some pepto bismol and a couple other things. I had a bad sour stomach off and on yesterday and had no pepto to handle it and it suuucked.

I'm getting the cherry kind 'cause I found out that actually tastes pretty pleasant. Though for some reason I've always kinda liked the taste of pepto anyway. Maybe I'm just weird. XD

Why on earth am I rambling about stomach medicine? Is this being an adult?


@wildfire: Hope you have a less crazy day today! :O

@koah: Oh dear, good luck!


Good morning both of you! I'm okay, although I'm having a tooth pain flare from a cold sensitive tooth freaking out. >.o Don't really have anything on the plans for today. I think maybe I'll work on my OC profiles on Toyhouse. :)


@koah: And wow, that's weird and kinda rude, her hinting like that. Good grief.


Hello all, hope your days are going well!

@Wildfire: Gosh you were fast; I fixed that image immediately lmao! I do know of cucamelon; they're adorable but unfortunately they apparently taste like cucumber and I can't stand cucumber. ^^; Dragonfruit would be fun; I actually have a small stalk of dragonfruit from a moon cactus whose grafted colorful part died off; I'm hoping that the remaining plant will branch off now that it's not feeding the graft and grow more of itself!
