I did it

[danaeris]

I just came out to my parents as being bisexual. And the world didn't come to an end. In fact, everything is just fine.

More later when I'm feeling less vulnerable. In the meantime, please post funny or warm fuzzy thing to help put me in a normal, happy mood.

[yiab.livejournal.com]

here's something funny:

*laughs*

That's awesome.

Y'know, I knew a gay jewish boy who was dating a neo-nazi skin head. It was an extremely fucked up relationship... the jewish boy was a bottom, btw. *twitch*

awww, that's cute! Thanks for sharing. :)

Y'know, before I left SF, Quincy was at Rainbow Grocery and he saw an ad; a couple had a cat they had raised on meat substitutes and they needed to find it a new home but were only willing to give it to someone who would agree to keep it vegan. He (and I) was pretty offended by it... not only because that's tatamount to abuse, but also because, if you're going to raise a cat on a fucked up diet that's expensive and messes up their digestive system, then have the decency to keep it.

I posted this in my personal journal as well. Read the comment in there!

"Excuse me, sir, will you direct us to the non-hippie cereal please?"

[danaeris.livejournal.com]

*giggles* thanks for the reminder, sweetie. *huge hugs* I'm so happy for you and your boi, what with the impending handfasting, btw! *warm fuzzies back at ya*

Well, you could have had a slip of the tongue and come out as biro (http://www.quido.cz/objevy/propis.a.htm)sexual. :)

You don't find Hungarians sexy?

(how's that for a reply of didascalias? :)

you word geek!

[purplesofa.livejournal.com]

wow, I must have searched 6 places before finding "didascalia" on allwords.com: "the words that accompany a photograph, cartoon, etc to explain it."

On dictionary.com, the closest I found was "didascalic": "Didactic; preceptive", with different etymology.

(cf. onomatopoeia)

Re: you word geek!

[funos.livejournal.com]

Coming from you, that's a huge compliment. Thanks!

I knew the word from theatre: it's the actions an actor is to perform. There is at least one play out there composed entirely of didascalia. No dialogue.

Re: you word geek!

[purplesofa.livejournal.com]

in the play, are the didascalias meant to be spoken by the actors? Or is the play script composed entirely of action instructions, and the play itself silent?

Re: you word geek!

[funos.livejournal.com]

the latter, but hey, the former could be funny if well done.

Phallic Pens

[danaeris.livejournal.com]

Well, now that you mention it...

[ericsilverbear.livejournal.com]

Can I play with you boobies?????????????????????

[danaeris.livejournal.com]

*giggle* That's just the right amount of bizarre. Thanks! You very much made me laugh, which probably made my breasts jiggle a little. Does that mean that in a way, you did play with my boobies?

[ericsilverbear.livejournal.com]

I'll TAKE it!!!!

[silentmwe.livejournal.com]

Congrats! Hmm, funny.... Howabout: http://www.brunching.com/images/geekchartbig.gif? Also usable as a checklist, for the ambitious.

[danaeris.livejournal.com]

Ah yes, the geekchart of Doom. It's a fun one, and helps us all remember our stations in life. :)

Hope all is well with you. *telepathic cyber scritches*

[dawnd.livejournal.com]

Yay! Congratulations!

[danaeris.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

[beowabbit]

Yay! Good for you! I’m so glad it went well!

Plenty of funny or otherwise time-wasting stuff at http://www.aq.org/humour.html.

[danaeris.livejournal.com]

That is an AWESOME icon, actually. You look so happy/silly/bouncy! :)

I will have to check out that link at greater length.

[beowabbit]

Thank you! It was taken at a π-day party (March 14, starting at 1:59). I was posing as I was about to slice into the first pie.

[sassy-fae.livejournal.com]

That's awesome! What a good day for you, you must be so relieved. I'll be seeing you tomorrow, right? We'll have lots of congratulatory dinner!

Funny thing, I was thinking about you today, I found the Better than Chocolate soundtrack while shopping after work! :D
Ian still hasn't seen the movie, but I'm going to pop in the CD at bedtime.

*HUGS HUGS HUGS!!*

[danaeris.livejournal.com]

Yes, good, if scary, but over.
I'll be at the dinner, yesyes. Looking forward to seeing you and meeting others and making the world explode with Kendra. ;)

Ooo, the soundtrack? Hmm. I bet I'd like that. I'll have to listen to some of it when I'm over next. And, watch the movie and enjoy! I haven't missed it so far yet, so no worries.

*hugsbouncenuzzle*

[purplesofa.livejournal.com]

hello, glad the coming-out went well. Hope you are enjoying a little vocabulary discussion in your journal.

[sunspiral.livejournal.com]

Yay! Congratulations on bravery and forthrightness carrying the day. As for warm fuzzies, the best I can do right now is to telepathically project a line of kisses down your back.

::kisses:: ::kisses:: ::kisses:: ::kisses:: ::kisses::

[danaeris.livejournal.com]

Thank you for the kisses. Even cyber intimacy and tenderness and fuzzies like that are better than none! :)

[dragon-spirit.livejournal.com]

Congratulations babe!!

I got to play with little fuzzballs today! I ran into some gutter punks who had some baby ratties, and since I noticed them and didn't freak, they offered to let me pick up the babies. They were sooooooooo sweet!

[danaeris.livejournal.com]

Awww! Fuzzballs! Ratties for the Maura! I hope your next household let's you have ratties.

Oh, and I've been reading and I'm really sorry about the housemate, but I hope this works out for the best with you finding a similarly priced place in a better, greener neighbourhood. And dude, Madame Butterfly!

I miss you. If I were rich I would fly you here for a visit, and we'd take Toronto by storm. :)

[dragon-spirit.livejournal.com]

I hope it works out. He's not a completely unpleasant person, it's just that he lies and does underhanded things, he's inconsiderate and conniving and completely disgusting. Other than that he's not so bad.

Aw, I wish I were rich and I'd fly up for a visit, and I'd take you back with me for at least a week. Well, the first one of us to get rich has to fly me up there. 8)

ps

[danaeris.livejournal.com]

I bought the book Neverwhere, and I'm reading it, and there are ratties in it! As you know. :) Thank you for introducing me to the show so I could go for the book as well.

Re: ps

[dragon-spirit.livejournal.com]

The book is really great! I haven't read it since seeing the series, so I'd love to re-read it knowing how all the characters are supposed to look.

Have you seen the trailers for Mirrormask (http://www.sonypictures.com/movies/mirrormask/) yet?

Join the addiction...out of season but still good. :)
