Lateshift's loaded like a gun.

01:07 / 12.12.07

No. The Little People will be Volume 2. I have time travel now and Im going back in time to start this thread last year.

01:19 / 12.12.07

Time Travel should be volumes 1, 4, and 7.

why those volumes?

Ze's skipping ahead through time?

Hi. Up after watching a really nice film. Am I allowed to join in or is Flyboy's newest incarnation going to tear me a slight one? (FYI: not meaning that as it sounds, just a slight tease because, frankly, it was a bit warranted. No flaming me please. Which then fall under the category of "Kali, why mention it all?" And again, personal suckage. Christ, I really need to stop typing whilst I'm ahead.)

Ahem. Hi!

01:40 / 12.12.07

um...ok.

HI KALI!

How are ya?

01:44 / 12.12.07

Not to worry, Flyboy doesn't usually hang with the Lateshift crowd.

He's too good for the likes of us.

(Actually, as of late he came to my rescue in the Favorite Songs thread and he likes "Ugly Betty" so he's managed to place himself firmly in my good graces.)

Hi Kali!

01:48 / 12.12.07

What was the film?

02:00 / 12.12.07

Ugh.

Just off the phone with the Accomplice, who has been told that by moving out at the end of December, there is officially no way his mother can continue living there, and must be placed in a facility. The whole situation is real horrible.

In her progressive mental deterioration, she has removed all his legal powers over her situation and placed them in the hands of her money-grubbing sister, alienated him, and as a result he made the move to move out.

Now, even though his moving is assured, she'll be put into a facility and he feels very guilty about that.

02:02 / 12.12.07

That really sucks, LS.

02:09 / 12.12.07

Does. She really needs to go into a facility but has always said she didn't want to. I don't know. He's been taking care of her for his entire adult life, sine he was about seventeen (he's 31 now), and the situation's very messed up.

Plus, it doesn't help that everyone around him automatically feels the need to express our opinions, concerns, and suggestions to him, whether or not he wants them. It's really hard not to go into overprotective boyfriend mode and smother him, and our friends are all acting in similar ways. It's stupid.

Not to mention our other friend, who has been denied working papers to stay in Canada based on a technicality, and is looking at even more distance time spent doing a distance relationship.

2008 better be really good, you know?

02:12 / 12.12.07

That's horrid. Yes, I hope 08 is much improved for you.

02:13 / 12.12.07

Anyway, enough whining! I need to find positive solutions for my own problems and let my proto-family care for itself.

Or something.

The rumballs I made this weekend were awesome, and killer on the booze front.

02:17 / 12.12.07

mmm rumballs.

Damn. Now I want rumballs.

02:29 / 12.12.07

We figure there's about a quarter-shot in each one.

To bring my mood up, I've started working on my story again. Seems to be helping.

02:40 / 12.12.07

Good to hear. There seems to be a lot of people in the lateshift working on some piece of writing or another.

02:55 / 12.12.07

This might be going faster if I hung myself from the rafters with telephone cords. Upside down, Spider-Man style. If there were deep language tanks involved. If I had three beautiful daughters recording my words as I sat in my chair, unable to see. If my skin was a typewriter.

Still, it's better than it was last night!

03:02 / 12.12.07

And isnt that what counts?

03:06 / 12.12.07

Definitely. Note to self: this is a first draft.

03:40 / 12.12.07

Well Im going to call it anight.

Good night all.

Good night, Veng. Dream lightly, and often.

03:52 / 12.12.07

Are people still here?

Jot Evil Rules During Weddings

03:56 / 12.12.07

I am, though I was going to chuck myself naked into the shower from a couple slim minutes. What's the story?

04:05 / 12.12.07

I am writing about American misconceptions about the Middle East. The problem is I don't even know where to start, there are so many

04:06 / 12.12.07

Going to bed now, sorry for the seeming snark, and the movie that I watched was Waitress.

Very very good.

G'night!

04:13 / 12.12.07

Oh Kali! I'll be sorry to see you go. Good night.

I'm going to cleanse myself now. And shave! I practically have a beard by this point.

05:41 / 12.12.07

Awright. Terrible Lateshift Cannon is primed, and I'm firing myself into the abyss.

01:05 / 13.12.07

Hi. Its 10:06 and I have wine. And how are you?

19:31 / 13.12.07

I just wrote a several hundred word response to a comment left on my blog post. It's a topic I feel strongly about, but am struggling to express it in an unambiguous way. An e-lebrity had commented on my piece, as had others.

My reply was genius.

And now it is gone.

'sup my siblings?

19:59 / 13.12.07

That sucks. Were you able to figure out what happened?

20:14 / 13.12.07

I'm working on downloading fresh software onto my brand new laptop. I have the rest of the day off from work, and I get to play with the new toy!

As long as iTunes doesn't haven't any problems loading up.

Princess

20:15 / 13.12.07

My computer does it all the time. Firefox just dies out of spite.

20:31 / 13.12.07

Really? I've never had a problem with Firefox. Or maybe my computer just isn't as spiteful.

20:34 / 13.12.07

My iTunes, on the other hand, skips all the time. It drives me up a wall.
