I honestly used to love a traffic jam on the way to work. An extra hour I wasn't at work, just chillin' listening to my music, not being at fucking work. It was great. If traffic was completely stopped, like put it in park, turn off the ignition stopped, then it was Netflix on my phone time baby.

Traffic jams on the way home suuuucked though. At the time real time traffic info in my area was spotty at best, though. Almost impossible to use as an excuse now.

I'm down to be Internet crafting buddies! :D

Also, if you're at all lefty and within a reasonably drive of a major city you can probably find a group of anarchists or communists who still do quilting bees and crafting bees. A lot of what I know I learned from people who absolutely do not look like they'd be sewing and knitting. Haha. Spike mohawks and full punk vibes, plus knitting needles and gossip. It's awesome.

You have taken on the challenge of Irish Trek, did you not also expect to take on the curse of the O'Brien? You must suffer.

But if it's any consolation, I'm sorry you're having a shitty day, and I will watch an episode of trek in your honor this evening.

An amethyst crystal I found in my (gravel) driveway a full 4 years after moving in. It's a good 8 inches/20cm long, and shaped like a tear drop. It's amazing and I love it.

You and I would get along I feel.

Any suggestions on a different instance to move to? Preferably something smaller. I switched from world to this one because of outages during the Rexxit or whatever the hell it was called.

I am ashamed to admit I have never tried this, and just learned to throat the hard way. :/

Beautiful doxies. I have 3, they're such amazing creatures.

OMG, yes!

When I was like 11 or so, we had a company called EarthLink for Internet, and when we tried to cancel one month because we were broke, they gave us 3 months free. After the third time of that happening we realized we didn't have to pay for Internet anymore, and spent the money on a second phone line instead.

It. Was. Glorious.

A wire coat hanger shoved into the back of the TV to get it working

Going next door to borrow the phone because you've been downloading something all day and didn't want to lose it

This one is rough, but have y'all heard of Stouffer's stuffing? D:

These are clearly characters from studio ghibli's take on Night at the Museum.
