So, ages ago I responded to one of your guys' memes, a picspam meme, and you gave me Jennifer Aniston. I compiled the photos, but never posted it. I don't remember which one of you all it was, but I'm sorry for the delay. Here it is:



( I kind of cheated. It says to pic A picture for each question, but ...Collapse )

So, I had an entire post written out when I saw this. The Green Ranger is becoming a mixed martial arts fighter. On one hand, lolz, but on the other, it makes sense because the show recruited him because of his martial arts abilities. But still, lolz. So now this is a “Where Are They Now?” post, Power Rangers edition :D

We’re only covering the original series – well, not original; that would be the Japanese series “Seijuu Sentai Gingaman,” which the American series not only was spun-off from, but also provided the fight sequences for the American version. “Might Morphin Power Rangers” aired from 1993-1995 (really, is that all? Hmm, it seemed longer when I was 5), which at three seasons is still the longest-running series in the franchise.



( It’s Morphin time!Collapse )

Bill responded to my email asking if he wanted to get some lunch one day! So, this is a big deal for me because he was my mentor and close friend for three-and-a-half years and then for the past two-and-a-half years I haven't talked to him. I haven't talked to anyone. I would shoot him an email on his birthday wishing him well and send a holiday card, and every once in a while I'd send the occasional, "Long time, no talk" email trying to re-establish contact, but it never got off the ground. My mindset was always that if we went back and forth via email a bit then I'd invite him to lunch, but after a few emails, he'd stop responding (though, even when we were close he was really bad at returning emails and calls, to everyone, not just me). Well, I figured I'd just go for it and send him an email out of the blue suggesting lunch. Here's his response:

Hey Gal,

I will not be in before school starts, but I would be happy to grab lunch at the start of the semester.
Hope you are doing well, and hope to see you soon.

Bill

He lives in Brea (around the Irvine area), so what he means by "in" is "in Los Angeles." This is awesome! I have that mini newspaper reunion with five of the women I used to work with, am babysitting the little girl I used to, am talking to the other biggest influence in my college years (aside from Bill), Michael, via email, I just found and added the other newspaper adviser (aside from Bill), Rod, on FaceBook and he accepted, so I'm about to send him a message there, and now this with Bill. I know this is all basic social shit that people do every day, but not me, not for the past two-and-a-half years, anyway. I feel like my old self again. I can't wait to get a job and get back to school and be a full person again. On the down side, Michael hasn't responded to my last message from like five days ago suggesting we get together. Oh, well. Not all bridges can be mended.
