blegh...i hate when that shit happens *hugs* :(

It gets better/worse. I found out that said ex-friend has been going around throwing shade on my name, and talking shit about me. If this had been a few years ago, I would've approached her at Mystic Fest last year and thanked her for being such a bitch that I went to BotCon just to spite her, because it led to me meeting the guy who became my boyfriend. But now, I just avoid her, because she's so toxic that it's not worth the effort of rubbing her shit in her face.

*nodnodnod* i so agree with all that. best to just get the toxic out and keep it out *hugs*

Philosopher stone. Amirite? Glad you took out the toxic people in your life though. No one wants a humonculous poisoning their life.

I still have a ways to go before all the toxic people in my life are no longer in my life, but I'm down to two, so that's something. It's hard when the toxic people are related to you.

[tsukiko]

oh i know that all too well, den =_=

At least one of them is kind of trying to do better, so they're not as bad as they were, but the other one, I want nothing to do with them, because of things they've said and done.

an example: I asked them, when they said they wanted a familial relationship with me, to start out by writing letters to me because I like writing letters, and getting letters in the mail, and it would be a way for me to begin associating less negative memories of them, and they replied "I can't trust the USPS." when they'd sent one of our mutual relatives a birthday gift via the USPS not even a few days prior.

Wow, that's messed up. Either you trust them or you don't, but just using it as a lame excuse... *shakes head*

I raise my glass on all the great people though we find in our lives. The ones that make us happy, give us strength and remind us why this world can be a better place with the right company.

To all the awesome people in our lives! *raises glass of sparkling water*

*clinks my glass with you guys*

Hello everyone.

I've been in full blown NaNo Prep mode so not very present here. We have our kick off tomorrow and we made a whole bunch of cool goodie bags. Today I have to finish up the prep for that and *hopefully* have some time to try to figure out just what I'm doing this year for my novel. :P

[daikokunyo]

ZenKitty omg I didn't know you write!! I'd have liked to participate this year but I have college + a field immersion to deal with, so I won't be free until mid-December. (Plus the field immersion is in a village, so I'd have to rely on my hotspot...eh.)
What kind of stories do you usually write? And what rough directions are you exploring for your NaNo novel this year?

[trystan830]

Sternum, NaNo doesn't have to be done completely online - or even typed on a computer - one year my one daughter handwrote a lot of her NaNo!

and i had a friend who one year picked like March 15 to April 15th to write her novel because that's when it fit into her schedule! XD

now, if you want to 'win' on the NaNo site, the bare minimum is to just validate your word count (as being at 50,000 or more words) on the nano site before November 30th XD

[Den]

I'm waffling on if I wanna attempt NaNoWriMo this year or not.

[Death by Mirrors]

You want to.
ZenKitty and trystan shouldn't be the only ones to suffer after all ^^
