icepixieThere have been other rants about this before, but I'm to the point where I feel the need to add my own: what is up with all the fics where Character A watches Character B sleep?? 'Cause, you know, I find that really creepy and stalkerish. The ick factor is definitely way up there. I can't say as I'd appreciate someone watching drool on to my pillow, or whatever I do when I'm asleep, even if he/she was the love of my life. If I woke up and found someone staring at me, especially if they weren't sharing a bed with me, my first instinct would be to slap 'em.

*snort* Kitten is on my printer. *pauses a moment* Kitten is in my sock drawer. We've taken to bringing him inside and closing him off in a room with one of us and letting Cricket stew outside for a few minutes at a time. Wanna keep him...

2.5 days until ScaperCon! Woooooooo!!!

Oooh, I want to go to ScaperCon, dammit! I'm never gonna get to meet any of you guys! But dammit, when you're abroad for your junior year, you are coming to Scotland and visiting me, dammit. Even if I have to kidnap you. :o)

Would love to give him to you, but do you know how much it costs to ship an animal? It's $150 just for domestic shipping. Imagine what the cost of international transport would be. Highway robbery, it is... *shakes head*
Oooh, I want to go to ScaperCon, dammit! I'm never gonna get to meet any of you guys!
I want you to be at ScaperCon! We need to blow up the hotel with our psychic twinness coming into close contact!

You betcha. You know those two five-week vacations? I'm coming up to your house, and then taking you with me across Europe. It's gonna be great. It's gonna be next year. *is still in shock at the very idea* :)

Woo-hoo! Next year! Next year! Next year! We get to go travelling round Europe, and terrify everyone with our freaky twinness and between your Spanish, my German, and my ability to say "Bonjour" in French, we're all set to visit pretty much every country in Europe! Yay! *bounces madly*
