HI!

[hardparade]

I'm not even really sure what this post is for, I just sort of feel like making one? It's been a while. I feel like I've been really ~absent, actually, because I went on holiday and I didn't have much time online because I was too busy being lost in the Scottish countryside and chasing rogue chickens and getting addicted to Bananagrams and playing 'Cow' (a game in which you shout "cow!" when you see a cow). Action-packed vacation, I know. Anyway ever since I've been back I've felt sort of overwhelmed by the internet? And I feel all out of practice with writing, even though it really hasn't been that long? But I'm working on a short little something at the moment and hopefully it'll be finished really soon. :)

OH AND ALSO, LJ is doing this super weird thing where it basically refuses to use the icons I want it to use? Like, I'll select one, and it'll be like NOPE and default to my Anton Yelchin one instead. IDK WHY, I think it's just a glitch, but yeah, if I respond to any of your comments with an Anton Yelchin icon even when it has no relevance whatsoever...that'll be why. I even tried deleting all my icons and re-uploading them and IT DIDN'T WORK. And also I have a suspicion that anyone who tracks my journal might have been notified about that, so uh, sincere apologies if you got a ridiculous amount of messages just because I was obsessively trying to sort this out.

Apparently I really don't have anything interesting to say here but I wanted to reassure you guys that I am still alive and like, around, if anybody wants to talk? I do get sort of scared by this fandom every now and then because of my social anxiety and it can be hard to deal with and some days I'm just like WOW I CAN'T, but for the most part things are still awesome. ♥

I'm gonna finish this off by recommending that you listen to Ed Sheeran's cover of 'Pony' by Ginuwine, and look at this picture of a guinea pig. But not at the same time. That might be a bit weird.

I got your email, don't worry about lateness/rambling! ♥

My holiday was fun, yeah. :) And at least your Twilight icon is Alice, she was the coolest character. XD

That guinea pig is like "who? me? I have no idea what you're talking about." He's got a guilty secret if I'm any judge ;D

Honestly, it's just really nice to see your personal posts, even if you feel like you don't have much to say. I always like to read them anyway :)

I read your post again just now and 'Cow!' made me laugh out loud this time too. Best game ever!

To be honest, your holiday sounds pretty perfect. I could so do with a holiday like that right now.

It's wonderful to hear that things are mostly awesome <3

(I do rather love Alice. I just tell myself that I haven't sat through the first three films (god, why?!) and that the novel length, and very filthy, Alice/Bella story I read once is actually canon, and the rest is just a horrible, horrible nigtmare XD).

Yeah, it was a really nice holiday actually. :) It's just good to get away from everything once in a while I think.

It makes me really happy to know that you like reading my personal posts. ♥ I barely ever make them and usually only when something's bothering me, because I always kind of tell myself that people probably don't care? I don't know.

I totally shipped Alice/Bella when I read the books! Well, the two and a half that I read, anyway. XD Their friendship was pretty much the only decent part...

I think you underestimate how much people do care. I think of you as a friend even though we haven't met, and I know there will be others on your flist who feel the same way <3

For some reason you were the first person I thought of when I saw this:-
