G'morning all, I've gotta get bloodwork done today. Bleh. But at least I get to go out in cute halloweeny clothes.

@Shadami: Yeah! I won it from a variety streamer I watch on Twitch. FierceKittenz. She does sewing (she makes bags along with other things) and gaming. And does giveaways from time to time, obviously.

@Wildfire: Lmao I had to tear apart my closet to find my jeans. I'd seen them recently but could NOT find them to save my life, items were avalanching on me, I may have thrown an empty shoe box across the room, but I did finally find them, on the floor (at least they were folded) underneath everything else. I have no idea how they got in that position.

But it was very nice to see they still fit!! XD




@Shadami: Ah, yeah, mobile. I used to play Minecraft on my tablet a lot, especially when I was between computers. Then I play it on the computer and marvel that I was able to play it on a flat touch-screen without even a mouse!!

@sunny: I love beanies; I have four but I used to have a bunch others. I'm slowly rebuilding a collection. I love them, but I overheat easily, and hate a hot head, so if it's not cold enough I generally can't stand wearing them.

@MoodyB: I'm a huuuuge sucker for a cool design, especially monsters and fantasy creatures. Every so often I really fall in love with a design and add it to my menagerie!

@Shadami: I don't know a whole lot about it; I mostly bought the game because I won a DLC pack for it and figured I should own it, lmao. But it is BEEFY.

@Wildfire: We are making an effort, yeah, which is more than many people with much bigger dogs bother with! So I count it a win.

And wooo, fall cleaning! Don't get me started on cleaning house; ours looks like it needs to be condemned. XD; I wish you the best of luck in your endeavour!

And god yes, the cooler weather is so nice. I got to wear long sleeves and a beanie today!!




@Wildfire: We had the windows open yesterday evening and I left mine open almost all night. I finally closed it around 5 or 6 am; it was cool in the house but my room has a tendency to get pretty stuffy. Right now though it's only like 70 in the house anyway so we haven't opened the windows. Roommate has a cockatiel and fears it going below 70 or so, mostly for the bird's sake.


@Sunny: It's cool by Florida standards, lmao. Which is plenty for me, I got to wear long-sleeves and a beanie today!


@Shadami: Unfortunately I don't know anything about that version of Minecraft really; I've always preferred the java version. But good luck getting it figured out!




@Totalanimefan: Minecraft is extremely good at sucking a player in, lol. I think it's colder than average here too at the moment, but I'm not complaining! I got to wear my jeans and boots and a long sleeve shirt I've never had the chance to wear and my orange 'pierced' ragged beanie out to run errands, so I'm pretty happy lmao.

And that's true! I didn't go today, and would go tomorrow but I have a blood draw scheduled tomorrow morning. Oops.


@wildfire: ROFL maybe it's just that I didn't yet realize my aroace tendencies, but I don't remember seeing anyone particularly extra attractive back then, lol.

Tbh I never got very good at playing and marching at the same time. There were times I totally just faked playing and just did the steps. >_>;

I'd kill to have my own recumbent stationary bike. I really really enjoy the ones at the Y! They're the fancy ones with the programmed-in biking routes ad stuff. I've only used the quick workout so far, which is just a flat route. But it's good exercise, and I don't have to worry about balancing an actual bicycle, which I'm absolutely god awful at. I don't necessarily mind going to the Y when I have a ride to do so, and having a workout buddy is really nice, but it'd be really nice to have something at home to use while I just watch tv. I suspect I'd go a lot longer then!

That's cool that they make mounts for bicycle use in the house! I didn't know that. Unfortunately I don't own a bike, and owing to my balance issue I probably won't for the foreseeable feature, lol.

And ah, yeah, cooking and eating do go hand in hand lmao. I love to bake, so I understand that; I only really get to bake a couple times a year because who's going to eat it all?? But I've started giving out stuff I make, too; especially to roommate's friends (they're a bunch of sweet people) and then I also bake for family occasions. Made a killer Cherry-Chocolate Cake with Eggnog Custard last year that I got sooo many compliments on! I don't know if I can top it this year but I'm brainstorming, haha.

@Wildfire: That's true, but it also leads to the stereotype of little dogs being "mean" because they aren't trained! Toki just turned 3 and he can sit and stay pretty okay. He does a few other things with gestures (shake 'howdy', lay down). But he doesn't listen well when he's chasing a neighbor (through the fence; he's on our yard side but that doesn't stop him trying to intimidate them lmao) or when a new person is in the house. He seems to be getting a little better about coming ('right here right now') though.

You can bet he listens when a scooby snack is on the line, though! XD;

How are you doing this lovely cool morning?




@Wildfire: Woo! Woke up to 55 degrees outside and 70 in the house. I love it. :D And yeah, it does seem like a good day to work outside!

@Totalanimefan: You're the smart one. I was up till like 7am playing. Can we say hyperfixation? XD;; And cool! I've only done about 10 minutes at a time so far so I've only done the 'quick start' basic workout but I think as I get stronger I might try some of the other 'maps' they have. :D

@blue: You know if I weren't going with my roommate I'd probably do longer on the recumbent bike than the 10 minutes I've been doing. I kinda enjoy it, plus I don't have to worry about keeping an actual bike balanced! Kinda makes me with I had my own at home so I could just chill and watch tv while I workout. XD I'm not really into the weight thing either though eventually I'll probably incorporate them to build up some strength. Even if it's just getting some small dumbbells to work with!



I really have never been super active; the only thing I was even involved with in school after elementary was marching band, but at least that kept me semi-active! I did walk a lot when I was in college, both to get to classes and just because the campus was kinda fun to explore (there was a lake with a tiny beach and boat dock and even a firefighter school and an aviation school! I used to wander around taking photos). :)

@Kent:
@Shadami:

It's that recent Conan game! It's freaking huge!




@Totalanimefan: According to the forum it's been 10 hours since our last exchange... and I'm still playing Minecraft.

Help me. XD

@MoodyB: I just like coming up with backstories and such. Also I love adopting neat designs and giving them a story, too.
