Distracted By Something Shiny

You're a teasing tease who teases

LOL Yes, I am. ;) Though this does remind me I owe you all a therapy story!

...and congrats to your sis!

Thank you! She starts the new job on Tuesday.

From:

Have an awesome visit, hon - and maybe put a lock on that bathroom door for your morning moment! :)

Congrats to the sister, and I'll see you next week. I'll also try to think of some fun fics for you - but I have to say,

het_reccers often has good stuff. Just to tide you over, maybe?

From:

The living room is in perfect view for the walk from my bedroom to the bathroom. The kids would catch sight of me and immediately want me! It's probably just because I am such a cool aunt though. Things went decidely better this time around - my broher did not bug me every single second and I think maybe me having a seizure the last time he was in town made him think a little about my energy level.

Thank you for my sister!! She came in yesterday from her last day at the crappy job and started shouting, "I'm free! I'm free!" She starts the new job on Tuesday.

I ended up reading this Fallen!Cas verse that sucked me in enough that now I have to finish it! It was full of the angsty unrequited feels that I enjoy.

I have never heard of het_reccers though, so I tagged it for future het-needs.

het_reccers has ALL of the DARCY/BRUCE (and Darcy/everyone) fics listed near the top right now. GO READ! :D

Also, today was my LASY DAY AT WORK. Until June 18-19 when I have stupid training. Bleargh.

From:

Darcy/Bruce? Really? That thought had never crossed my mind - but now that you mention it, it seems almost perfect!

WHOO-HOO for Summer Vacation!!!

From:

In one, she calls him "Dr. Fluffy." For Mark Ruffalo's hair. And I tell you what, whoever decided NOT to include Darcy in the Avengers *ahem*Joss*ahem* was STUPID. I didn't miss Jane one iota, but the serious lack of Darcy was sad.

Record highs here yesterday, today, and tomorrow. Good thing we have our deck pool set up for the season!

I agree but where would they have used her, you know. Are they making a Thor 2? Because if she isn't in that, then I will be PISSED. From everything I have read, Joss didn't have much say about who was in the movie (or who died, dammit) but maybe if he does Avengers 2 they will give him more reign (though that could also backfire terribly so maybe we don't want that).

You know in April, it was nearly 90 degrees. Now in June...we are lucky if we break 70. Memorial Weekend was pretty nice though.

From:

Supposedly Tom Hiddleston has said in an interview that Kat Dennings will be back for Thor 2 - I hope it's TRUE! You are right, however, that allowing Joss completely free reign might well result in the deaths of more characters. (Of course, if it's Ant Man, who cares? Talk about a character that doesn't need to be in the movies....)

The weather does seem to have evened out a bit... but I'm sure it will be pure HELL August 1st when school starts again. *sigh*

From:

I can't believe you people start school on August 1st - that's the craziest thing I have ever heard.

Wait...is Ant Man going to be in the next movie? And if so...why?!

From:

It's completely whacked. And I KNOW the air-conditioner in our building WILL be broken on the hottest days....

Supposedly an Ant-Man origins movie has been approved for production. *yawn, snore*

From:

An Ant Man movie? You know, Hollywood, just because you can, doesn't mean you should.

From:

Exactly!

From:

I hope the fam visting goes okay and you get a chance to breath while they are around.

Congradulations to your sister and have a great birthday!!!

From:

The family visit was not as overwhelming as visits past, but by the day before they left I was ready to get my house back. :)

Thank you! I am super excited for my sister - this job is perfect for her.

Birthday dinner tomorrow night - I may even wear a dress!

From:

I'm glad it was an easier visit, but yeah, must be nice to have your own space back.

I went through years of hating dresses, but now I love them, give me an exscuse to dress up and I will, mainly because I look 12 when I dress casual. I hope you have a wonderful meal

From:

I went through years of hating dresses, but now I love them, give me an exscuse to dress up and I will, mainly because I look 12 when I dress casual.

Omg, are you me? That is exactly me too! When I was a teen, I always said the only time I would ever wear a dress would be if my sister got married and wanted me to be in the wedding party. And everyone was like, "What about your own wedding?" and I always said, "Nope."

But then I had a friend who wore the same size as me and we started shopping together and she dressed very nice but like a grown woman and not a teenage boy like I did, so suddenly my style started to mature. Now I lament how there aren't enough occassions to wear dresses and I have all these ones hanging in my closet that I never get to wear!

I look like I am about 14 when I dress casual. I am 34 and I have kids who are like 19/20 asking me what school I go to!

From:

Nice to know I'm not the only one. I'm going to be maid of honour at some point becaue my BF is getting married. I've never even been a brides maid before and was never the girl who had her dream wedding dress in mind. But I'm past my dress hatred and she has great taste, so I'm not woried about how I'll look....much.

I think shopping with friends can always be fun and they get you trying on things you'd have never picked out alone. I'm the same as you now, closet full of pretty dresses that I want more chances to wear.

I was 21 in january and months before got asked if I was old enough to see a 15 rated movie, But people are always telling me I'll love looking younger when I get older. So maybe when we're 50 will love it? lol

From:

I've never actually been in a wedding either. I used to have a really nice video camera and a great movie making program, so everyone always asked me to record and then edit their wedding for them. I made like little music videos out of the footage for them. It was fun!

was 21 in january and months before got asked if I was old enough to see a 15 rated movie, But people are always telling me I'll love looking younger when I get older. So maybe when we're 50 will love it? lol

Everyone tells me that too but I doubt it, because I am also really short, so by the time I am 'older' I will also be shrinking. lol

I keep getting hit on by 19 year olds. Cute nice 19 year olds, but wow do I feel like a dirty old lady. It is still better than when I go shopping with my cousin's kid, who is like 15, and we get checked out by boys that are her age at the mall. I am old enough that people should think she was my daughter, but apparently they think we are just high school buddies.

From:

The wedding video stuff sounds cool, I like the music video idea, it's a nice momento of the day.

I'm pretty short as well and already shriking I think. My ft have gone down half a size already.

I know how you feel with the young guys it's like 'oh, flattering,but now I feel like a perv'

My brothers three years older than me and he once got asked if he was my dad, which I found funny and he really didn't.

From:

I would make one of the ceremony and then one using the official photos and then maybe two of the dancing at the reception. I miss my awesome video program.

I keep getting shorter but also rounder in the hips, so even though I am shorter, I have to go up a size in pants! Dammit.

I know how you feel with the young guys it's like 'oh, flattering,but now I feel like a perv'

There is this aide at physical therapy that I am almost certain has a crush on me and he is 19 and I am 34. I just don't think he realizes that I am 34. He is so adorable but I just feel like, "Oh honey, no."

My brothers three years older than me and he once got asked if he was my dad, which I found funny and he really didn't.

Ahahahaha That is funny. My sister is five years older than me and we get that all the time. Once we were out to dinner - my dad, my brother and his wife, my sister, me and The Nephew who was like a year at the time - and my sister is holding the baby and some woman behind us turns to her and starts telling her what a beautiful family she has and how lucky she is and like asking if my sister has any more kids at home. lol

From:

I have the hips of a young boy, makes wearing jeans a bitch.

Maybe you could loudly talk about what your doing for your next birthday and mention your age a lot.

That is awesome, I can imagine that happening. When ever my bf is out with her neice she makes sure to mention findiny Mummy, so people don't think she's a parent. But then half the girls we went to school with have one or two by now

Woooo, please give your sister congrats from me!

From:

My sister says to tell you 'thank you'. She was all smiles yesterday when she got home from her last day at her old job. They have already given her an schedule for her first week on the new job and she gets to go into the field as early as Thursday!

remember to take a breath every now and again while the family is visiting! lol Hope the visit is a lovely time for all of you.

That is wonderful news for your sister! Congratulations!!!

From:

The family visit went well - I kept sneaking away to read my Buffy book whenever the kids were eating or bathing. It also helped that the baby isn't so little anymore - they went to visit people instead of having people come to our house. Plus, the kids are at those ages where they have little budding personalities - it is too cute!

Thank you! I am super psyched for my sister! This job is like everything she loves to do and finally she might be doing something that challenges her.

Hope you're not too exhausted after the visit, bb. (Are they still there? I'm confused about days and stuff right now.) And congrats to your sister! That's an awesome way to get a job. :D

Where do you find all these geeks? I need more geeks in my life, all my colleagues and classmates are way too normal. :p

From:

My brother and his family left on the 23rd, so I spent the week following that sleeping and playing my new video game they got me for my birthday. It was a great visit - much less stressful now that the kids are getting older but I was happy to have my house back.

Thank you! My sister already loves her job and she has only been there a week and a half.

Where do you find all these geeks?

I think it is just because I wave my geek-flag everywhere I go. Like most people would just talk at physical therapy about the weather and their plans for the weekend or whatever - I talk about my shows and my stories. So for every ten people I talk to - nine of them just laugh and raise their eyebrows at me and one of them goes, "OMG! You like SPN/X-Men/Avengers/Hunger Games too?!" Just wave your flag, baby, and the geeks will find you. Of course, everyone else will think you are nuts but.../shrugs/

From:

I shall wave my flag all over the place. I guess the t-shirts and the pins aren't clear enough. :p

Of course, everyone else will think you are nuts but...
I think I'm already there, so no worries. My aunt actually asked me, while I was watching Fantastic 4 way back, if I thought the world really was like that. I wonder how crazy she thinks I am... *eyeroll*
