Nina, birthday coincidences, tagging, water boilers, Google videos, quizzes and Memegens

I called my friend Nina last night: she's finally obtained a divorce and settlement from that nasty ex of hers! That took less time than she thought it would, which is a good thing: so much time, money, and stress went into it! Her ex will have access to see his son, but I think Nina will have custody of him.. that's as it should be. She's also been busy with work and such: her son's 2nd birthday was last Saturday (same day as Nathan's!), and her brother Rick's birthday is this Saturday, which is the same day as my dad's! We spent time enjoying this coincidence before Dylan made a lot of noise: we'll continue the conversation later, I'm sure! (she wants to call me back and says it's good hearing from me, so why not?)

Oh yay. I've just discovered that when I edit an LJ entry with more tags than the tag field can handle in the "Edit Entry" interface (and clear the tag field so I don't end up with truncated tags later), the edited version shows up with no tags at all! It hasn't done this for at least the past few months, since it was like GJ in this respect and stored the tags for you so that they'd show up in the tags field! Aiyoh! (yes, I'm well aware that I can use the "Edit Tags" feature, but that takes more time!)

What my mom meant by "electric kettle" was just a water boiler thing that you plug into the wall and pour water in... press a button to boil it. She'll give it to Jon anyhow since we'll see each other tomorrow: I think I'll make plans with Eric, for sure! (unless he has to be there at 5:30 too... no idea what time this starts, heh) It won't allow you to boil dry, so has a minimum water level. (this is like the things she used to have when we were kid, only apparently this takes a shorter time to boil!) I need to remember to unplug it after it boils, of course. Mom also wants to know if Jon and Steph told me about Dad's birthday dinner this Sunday: nope, since our conversations centred around poop and water this week!

Your Cute Sweatshirt Is

The Sexy Kitty Zip Front Hoody

What Cute Sweatshirt Should You Wear?

You Are: 40% Dog, 60% Cat

You and cats have a lot in common. You're both smart and in charge - with a good amount of attitude. However, you do have a very playful side that occasionally comes out!

Are You More Cat or Dog?

You Hardly Remember Your Ex

You're definitely not a psycho, and you probably don't even think of your ex often. You've moved on, and your life is the better for it. Just remember to remember why the two of you did break up - so you don't fall for him again!

Are You a Psycho Ex?

Lycanthrope
You're a lycanthrope: a werecreature, a shifter, a werewolf. You have a strong dual-nature, but you are a loyal and protective person. You thrive during in-between times: dawn and dusk, when the veils of the world are thinnest. You stick close to your family and friends, though you often steal off on your own. You are rather mysterious, and have a secret side that most don't know about.




Thanks for taking my quiz! Please check out my new quiz, How Excitable Are You?
What's Your Secret Mythical Side?



Keeping Yer Cool
You try to keep yer cool and not get so hyper that you make a fool of yerself. You generally are calm, and celebrate without absolute craziness. Occasionally, an occasion does arise when you get so enthralled that you simply must freak out with joy. However these times are very rare, and you more often than not avoid them.

How will you seduce Severus Snape? by mes_ongles
Your username:
Your animagus form:

Your pick-up line:	"Like to take a sip from my Goblet of Fire?"
Why he says yes:	He justifies it as his duty as a spy. You look like you know things about sex that are absolutely *vital* for the Order's next move against the Death Eaters.
The hottest bit:	The dirty talk. Who knew you could stretch a wand metaphor that far?
How good was it?	OMG, you have so manny bunnies for smutfics now. Restrictedsection.org won't know what hit it.
The morning after:	You both die, courtesy of a lethal interaction between the various potions you took. Because after the sex, no-one cares what happens to a fanfic character.
