[Explaining to David what 'be yourself' means, in very inspirational terms. Ending with...] "So always stay exactly how you are: a horrible little boy."
This post is mostly for my future reference, in case something happens and I need to remember how to do this again, but what the hell, someone googling the process might find it and save them the several days study and hobbling together instructions for other devices that it took me. :)
The tablet is a no-name thing from Big Lots that my mother gave me. It's a Proscan 8" tablet running on an ancient version of Android. It's a Rockchip tablet, apparently. It's too old to run Google Play, nor much of anything else of use. I want to install Cyanogen Mod at some point, but this did the trick without having to dick with the ROM too much as it is. ( More things most of my f-list won't care about, but I love you guys!Collapse )
"I pooped out my two apples, and I pooped out my candy..." --David, on why he should get dinner and more candy now. (Followed by the Pinky and the Brain theme song.)

So I did both. (Kind hat-tip to Terry Pratchett may be found within. Points if you find it.)
me: OMFG. I just went upstairs to take off my shirt and chuck it in the laundry. I'm standing over the laundry, looking into the dark bedroom, when I fucking realize my foot is against a BODY. I jump out of my goddamn SKIN, and fling aside a shirt to see NATALIE HAVING BURIED HERSELF IN THE LAUNDRY AND FALLEN TO SLEEP Aaaaaaaah OH MY GOD those few milliseconds were the creepiest of my LIFE ::breathebreathebreathe:: Okay. Reading and writing. Okay. SteffWatson: LMAO!!! me: ::BREEEEEEEEATHE:: SteffWatson: You should post that on LJ. It's brilliant. me: LOL I WILL
In the car today, Natalie wanted to know why we couldn't name a new cat Ray since our Ray died Friday morning.
Steff: "No, Natalie. There's only one Ray." Natalie: "That's not true, there's a bunch of Rays in Due South!"
So... thanks, Paul Gross et al. ::laughs::
Steff-lady put up a post taking commissions so we can try to offset the financial hit of Ray's death and the checkup we had to give Mike, her brother, to make sure he wasn't going to die too. If you feel like helping and maybe getting some art or some fic, please go see <3

Even if I don't really think wizards quite worth the effort, I respect my sire. "He and Chase are currently underground in Canada, preparing to help refugees to cross the border."

I apparate into the quiet street. Snow falls around me. What light there is is soft, warm, faint.
This is the Wizarding village of Upper Wingate, tiny and hidden by Tobin Lake. It is early in the morning. Most residents are long since asleep. My wand-tip adds to the faint light of the street; it would be unwise, perhaps, but stealth is not part of tonight's call. ( Read more...Collapse )
