From His Wide Grin, It Can Be Surmised She Sat Directly On His Face...

[said_scarlett]

First off, Happy Birthday burningvigor! I really hope you have a good one!

With a new filter for the heater, the burning dog smell should dissipate. Not sure what to do about the noise. When it's gearing itself up, it sounds as though the proverbial monkeys on typewriters are hacking away at Shakespeare in there. And then comes the 'FWOOMP!' and the dull roaring sound.

Not exactly the most soothing of white noises, let me assure you! But the house is warm. And with temperatures dropping below freezing at night, that's the important thing.

I hung some more of my art and whatnot on my walls. Ah, there's nothing quite like waking up to the adoring faces of a gaggle of Sailor Scouts, gazing down upon you. I chose the right place for that poster. ;)

I think I'm finally feeling better. I spent the night with vapor rub slathered all over me, and it's made quite the difference in my breathing this morning. I may need to repeat this process.

I had some flash of brilliance last night, on how to maximize space in my room without blocking the door, but sadly it's gone.

I finished Death Mask! Definitely my favorite of the Dresden File novels so far. But everyone - including random internet strangers - is telling me that Blood Rites is the best. So I shall have to get my hands on that!

I started, in the meantime, From The Empire, the first of the Trinity Blood novels. Abel is adorably lecherous! I don't remember him being lecherous in the anime! Granted, it's been some time since I saw it... Catherina kicks ass, Alessandro is just plain adorable, and I'm looking forward to seeing the original incarnations of all my other favorite characters.

I think that about wraps it up for me!

Yay for heat! I wish it would hurry up and get cold here because I have a bunch of sweaters that I want to wear and cuddle up into.

I need your opinion! Please have a look at my latest eljay if you get the chance.

Oh! Did you by any chance send that wig out?

And one more thing...did you get your FIB card? I found out that the actual branch is right near me, so if you ever need me to get you some deposit slips, or make a deposit for you, I can^^

I would prefer the cold go away. :/

KK!

It should be winging its way off to you today!

And no, not yet, I'm still mucking about with that.

After living in Phoenix for as long as I did, the cold is my best friend.

Okay!

I will let you know if I get mine, since I sent mine off before you did.

HEY~

I just got my FIB ChaCha card! Its the obnoxious ChaCha red, it says ChaCha on it, and it does have the Visa logo so you can use it anywhere. The pin comes in a separate mailing, so you can't use the card until you have the pin (obviously), and you have to use it at an atm before it is activated for making purchases.

Aren't they ugly?

I love how some of the users in the forum were saying that you could use the debit card as a credit card before you got the PIN. They must have missed the memo about activating it at an ATM. -_-;

I don't remember if they give the fee refunds on ChaCha accounts or not, but they do have a listing of fee-free ATMs on their site if you need it. We have several on the list around here, but I haven't gotten ambitious enough to actually activate my card yet. lol

[ex-talia-sp.livejournal.com]

Heh...I have had uglier cards lemme tell you.

I don't see how they could have missed it, since it comes with a label on the card that clearly states you must activate it at an atm before using, since FIB will kick back transactions made on an unactivated card and turn it off completely.

The FIB branch is actually near me, so I will prolly go activate it tomorrow if I get my pin in the mail today. Either that or I will venture off to find another fee-free atm.

THANK YOU. It's been an all right day so far, except that I think that our food cabinets got infested with ants. :|

But omg, vapor rub is amazing. I needed some so bad a few days back, but I'm on the mend now. 8D

[theladyfeylene.livejournal.com]

YAY! And ack, oh man, that sucks. So bad. *has been dealing with that for...a long time*

Yes it is! I was so coughy and stuffy last night, and it really made a difference. I'm glad you're on the mend!

[burningvigor.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I know you could definitely sympathize there! I'm crossing my fingers that it isn't too bad.

Keep abusing it until you're better, then! ♥

Hah. This random internet stranger would like to say she is of the opinion that there /is/ no one best book of The Dresden Files (because they're all great). On the other hand, if you're a big time Thomas-fan, Blood Rites may cause you to make some noise while reading it. (I don't want to spoil anything, so I'll keep it vague like that.)

*might have replied to some other aspect of your post but got distracted by the shiny mention of The Dresden Files*

[theladyfeylene.livejournal.com]

They really are all awesome books! :D I'm terribly glad a friend sent me the first two.

I have heard so much vague stuff about this next book and I'm itching to get my hands on it! Need moar Dresden!

[rosehiptea.livejournal.com]

Yay for warmth. I really should read the Trinity Blood novels. I've only seen a little of the anime at this point. (Lecherous Abel sounds like my cup of tea though.)

[theladyfeylene.livejournal.com]

So far, I'm enjoying the first one. Lecherous Abel is oddly adorable. He's so cute about it!
