    Semantics

    LOL I've never seen a sign like that, but we have some weird ones...

    lol is this a joke on my new tat? (which seems to be healing btw) Excellent picture. I was (relatively) unaware of the uses for foxglove. The white version of this plant grows wild at my dad's.
  4. There's a bunch of this stuff growing at my dad's (where I am now) and also a few plants which I suspect are relatives of Hemlock.
  5. lol now they are changing the words to "we wish you a merry christmas" so that it's "we wish you a happy holidays". Christians, I'm sure, are the ones who think non-Christians should be offended by "merry christmas". As a pagan I find this to be rediculous and I haven't met anyone yet (Christian or non) who is offended by "merry christmas"
  6. LOL Vertically Challenged I was having a discussion with my disabled friend about this. He gets mad when someone calls him "differently abled". He says "I'm not "differently abled" I'm disabled! If I became a Sith Lord and got Dark Jedi Powers I would be "differently abled" but I'm not, I'm just disabled!"
  7. Lol that's your opinion, you're entitled to it. I love mine, provided it actually looks OK when it heals, I've never gotten one before and it's kinda scary not knowing how these things are supposed to heal.
  8. cool! I woke up this morning and there was ink smeared all over the place. I tried to clean around it as best I could. I'm wearing a crop top today, you see. No longer to show off the tattoo yet, but because when my shirt touches it, it hurts.
  9. Bonjour! ...and that's all the french I know lol. Welcome! I like your name btw. Not sure how to pronounce it, but I like it.

    Ouch

    So I got my first tattoo today It's a tribal design, on the front of my left hip. (Painful place for a tat btw. Mine is pretty big, too.) I went with KT (dad's girlfriend. She's really awesome.) and tomorrow we're going to Harrisburg to go shopping. I'm having so much fun!! My first two days weren't as great...on the whole ride up and yesterday too I was feeling a bit ill, and at my graduation party yesterday I was half asleep and a bit nauseous. I'm feeling much better now though, so it's all good. I'm looking forward to getting a manicure/hairdo and getting some really cheap clothes tommorrow! I just went to move some of the ointment that I have to put on it around, because there was a dry spot on it where my pants had rubbed, and some of the ink came off on my hand! Is this normal??? (at the very least I'll make a mess of the bedsheets)
  11. I would have taken a steak for Cerberus. Or six steaks...enough for each head. Don't want them fighting with each other. Unless it was the plan to make them fight with each other so you could sneak by. Polenta..I've heard of that. Why didn't I think of it?
  12. Wow, have fun. Sounds like a great experience.
  13. Oh, wow! I had no idea there were so many Romanophiles in the North Eastern US. I might have a shot at finding a reenactment group afterall!
  14. Oh! lol thanks, I'll try that.
  15. lol UNRV actually stands for "United Nations of Roma Victor"
  16. clibanarii! Oven-men! I knew I'd seen that somewhere!!
  17. Well, now I'm an adult. I have been technically "adult" since my eighteenth birthday, but I didn't feel much like one. I mean, nothing changed. I still went to school. I had my driver's license, but I didn't drive, because I didn't have anywhere to drive to, and no car. Now I'm eighteen, have my license and a car, and I now have my high school diploma. Now things have changed. That chapter of my life is closed. That stage of my life is over, and in a week I'm going to be looking for a job, starting a whole new chapter. The "adult world". For now what I have to do is to enjoy the interim. I'm going to my dad's tomorrow, I'll be there about a week, to see everyone. A little vacation in between stages of life I suppose, there's no going back now, only forward. Time to celebrate how far I've come, reminisce, and think about what is to come and what I'm truely going to do with my life. They say when god (or the gods) closes a door, he (they) opens a window. Well certainly, in the course of my high school years I've made some mistakes, and I do have a few regrets. Those doors are closed, now time to start looking for the windows. Of course, once the "real world" hits, it won't matter what classes I took now, it won't matter all that much what happened in high school; and to be honest, most of it will probably be forgotten. but I look back at my former years of schooling, and while I have forgotten much, I am surprised at the things I remember. As for the actual ceremony itself, well, it was a moving ceremony, and though the crowd was rowdy it was relatively uneventful. We marched into the gymnasium (it was raining so we could not have graduation outside, unfortunately) to a shower of cheers and cat calls (someone whistled so loud that it nearly broke my eardrums) and someone, unfortunately, had an air horn. The superintendant's cap fell off as she was giving her speech declaring us officially graduated, and she simply said "I knew I was going to lose that" and continued on with her speech. I guess after so many years of doing public speaking, you simply learn how to roll with the punches. Perhaps the most powerful moment of the night was as we were driving home, however. I saw some strange cloud formations, which did not look like much at first, although the colors grabbed my attention. Then I saw, up ahead, a cloud formation which looked to me, exactly as if Jupiter himself were riding a triumphal chariot across the sunset sky. I was speechless. I fumbled with my camara, but alas, I failed to get a picture (my camara is bad at taking pictures of the sky anyway). Aw well. I will have that memory, even though I have no proof of it.)
  18. Caldrail do you mean the Oracle of Delphi?
  19. Lol yea. I'm 5'7 (average height is 5'6) but in most cars the seatbelt still cuts across my neck, AND my knees get caught under the steering wheel. Ugh. (my seat belts and steering wheel are also adjustable. YAY!)
  20. Wikipedia is generally a decent resource, HOWEVER anyone can really post anything they want on there. There are editors, however things get past them.

    lol thank you! Rides great, and I don't think I've ever felt as comfortable driving any car as I feel in this one (and everything is adjustable, which is just great for me
  22. I didn't like the hatchback, I found it to be odd looking. And they only had three, a silver hatchback, (which was stick shift anyway) a red one (metallic blood red) and this lovely "liquid gray metallic" They had a 2005 but it was all scratched and stuff, and the new car smell was worse than in the new one. (new car smell makes me sick). Besides, it was not nearly enough. I hope I didn't act too excited around the salesman. I completely forgot not to once I test drove that car (I seriously am in love with this car. lol)
