Adult Life Tip

Did you know you can buy those cakes at the grocery store without it being your birthday or any celebratory thing? Like you can just walk in and grab a cake and buy it and nobody’s gonna say anything. You can even walk in and get like one of those little kid batman themed cakes (or character of your choice depending on availability) and everyone there is just gonna assume that it’s totally for some small child in your life and meanwhile you get a batman cake all to yourself. Yeah, it’s not gonna be a super fantastic cake since it’s just from the grocery store, but that’s not the point. The point is cake. Cake.

AUGH thank you, lovely. It is scary AND fun! I know you know all about it.

Guys I guess I am in a relationship. Or something. With. . someone I have waited my whole life for. He fits every requirement I’ve always wanted in a guy, but gave up on because I thought it was too unrealistic. Our pillow talk consists of deciphering the Legend of Zelda series timeline. That…

Guys I guess I am in a relationship. Or something. With. . someone I have waited my whole life for. He fits every requirement I've always wanted in a guy, but gave up on because I thought it was too unrealistic.  Our pillow talk consists of deciphering the Legend of Zelda series timeline. That is how perfect he is. He's so smart, and so good, and funny, and handsome, and just. . wow. Wow. He lives many states away, unfortunately. And I, of course, still really struggle with insecurity - just like always. I kind of thought I was over that. He drove TEN HOURS to see me this weekend, in snow and rain. TEN HOURS. He obviously cares a lot about me. It was only three weeks ago that we admitted our feelings for each other. He sent me flowers. And now, here I am - after he has been kind of quiet the past two days and not really flirty or anything, I'm all like "OH MY GOD WHAT DID I DO HE HATES ME NOW BLAH" Now the difference between the Casey of Now and the Casey of Then is that I can recognize that I'm being illogical (and even if I'm not, there's not really anything I can do about it) - but the crazy part of my brain is all like "NOPE HE HATES YOU HE'S BACK HOME NOW AND HE REALIZES THAT YOU ARE HORRIBLE AND UNLOVABLE" So it still tugs at me, you know? So dumb. But I have to be kind of proud of myself - I do at least recognize it and don't act on it, where I would have once already written him like ten frantic emails. Ugh, it still sucks though. Insecurity is awful. And I don't get it! My self-esteem is fine, until someone like this comes in the picture. Gah. But I have to keep telling myself it will all work out for the best!

Timeline of the World A Brief History of the Dragon Age

[unicornbuffet]

A friend of mine asked me last night if I’d be able to shoot a scene today for a movie he’s working on. The role would be Tommy’s love interest. It’s a quick scene that didn’t pay much but he’s a friend I’m willing to do a favor for and come on, I’ve seen The Room, doing a scene with Tommy Wiseau...

Someone mentioned braids in the tags of that hairy Abelas art and it took me like 2 secs to start painting this just how weak am I

So I have been trying lately to dress like a real live 33 year old woman instead of some Smeagol-like creature that just rolled out of bed. Especially now that I have lost so much weight and can fit into straight sizes. . .it just seems like a waste. And I SAY that each night - I even go so far as to plan out my outfits for the week and hang them up in order in my closet, but then in the morning 7 am rolls around and suddenly sleep seems way more enticing than looking like a human being. I don't need to impress my coworkers! But I'm changing that. Well, as of today I am changing that. I'm going to make an attempt to do at least three OOTD's during the week. I'm also going to figure out how to take a better picture of myself so I don't end up settling for a picture of my reflection from an awkward angle in a dirty mirror. -_- But yeah, this is an Ann Taylor Loft dress. I like it because I am inverse triangle shaped, in that my shoulders are wider than my hips. And that's awesome for being athletic but not so awesome for feeling girly and shit sometimes. :( It's also not awesome for finding stuff to freaking FIT. Pants are like jodphurs on me. Ugh. And it sucks because I kind of like how I'm built. I love hips and curves and stuff and I so wish I had them, but I also love my powerful shoulders and my muscles and my legs, you know? Anyway, because of the potato quality photo, you can't really see that the dress has darts and seams in all the right places to make me look neat and professional. I also wanted to take a close up of my tights because my tights are fucking RAD and I got them at Target for $10. The necklace is awesome and chunky and sparkly and I also got it from AT Loft. I got several compliments, which was nice. I felt like I looked pretty awesome anyway, but it was still nice to have the external validation.

nineprotons tagged errbody and there are at LEAST fifteen things that make me happy right now, so. . .

Fifteen things that make me happy:

This beer I'm drinking right now. (Even More Jesus by Evil Twin. It's a very dark, rich imperial stout and it comes in at a whopping 12% abv but it doesn't taste overly boozy like some others in that range.)

Dragon Age: Inquisition

Cullen from Dragon Age: Inquisition

Cassandra from Dragon Age: Inquisition

Did I say Dragon Age: Inquisition

My crock pot

My new guitar, plastered with Hello Kitty stickers

Smiling at strangers and having them smile back

Abelas feels drawn to a Mythal bound (well drinker) Lavellan

Here is a fic prompt for anyone out there who likes those sort of things

Several weeks after the final battle a travel weary Abelas shows up at Skyhold.

"Why are you here?"

"I…don’t know.  I feel like, something called me here.  I had nowhere else to go."

I would love to write it, and may take a stab at it some time, but I’m not able to get my writing motor running right now.

GUESS WHAT'S DONE (ish. i'm tired)

All pages are under the cut! Except, of course, for the five pages I’m too lazy to finish. Counting the cover and credits, there’s fifteen pages of fun inside! And five pages of fun not inside! For a total of twenty pages! That exist. Just not here. They’re elsewhere. Only fifteen pages exist here.  WOW.

No one can convince me that these two images are not connected. Thranduil is totally Jareth’s sassier dad.
