Welcome to Gaia! ::

Yea, took me forever to find an affordable black trench that I liked and was relatively close immitation. After that though the rest was cake. Ok so Dib probably doesn't have 3-4 inch heels on his boots, but actually the jeans cover most of it and it actually looks fairly good. Besides whose gunna judge my feet?

I didn't like Carol at first but she grew on me as the series progressed.

Oh I still don't have an account - but yea I'd probably be more liberal in what I saved if I did. Saving for me means bookmarking, so yea, quite a lot of bookmarks I have. I have several folders to split up categories. On my main tab there are favorites, incomplete, and finished but not favorite (stories I don't want to keep quite so permanently but want stored for awhile. I've yet to clean any of it out - it's not that full - but I at least know these are the stories I like less?). Unfinished has folders for Cartoons and TV/Movie...everything else is loose. I have fewer unfinished anime stories (most of which are Fruba actually). My favorites split into folders for each of the series I have a lot of stories from and a folder just for cartoons (b/c really Rocket Power, Evo and IZ are the only cartoons I've read fanfiction for - and within the realm of what I like there isn't a whole lot in any series, especially RP - my favorite series). Haha, that was randomly boring - but yes the point I was a long time in making: I have quite an intricate web of "saved," so I do try and put some thought into what I bookmark.

Yea I did not, could never find one I liked. Didn't quite get a $15 thrift store deal, but it was half price and I do use at as my winter coat now (was wearing it up until 30 minutes ago actually).

I would prefer that too - I mention something further to this effect on the Dreams thread so I'll just leave that tangent here for now.

Sorry for the abbreviations, you know IZ - as you were Dib - haha. IZ = Invader Zim. Evo = Xmen Evolution. Those were (are?!) my 3 favorite cartoons probably, with Rocket Power in first. Actually South Park might be first but I don't always think of it as a cartoon. I'll try to stoop abbreviating things before people realize what I'm talking about, haha.

Mmm...ok well I have to wake up in about 6 hours so I'd better go crash now and respond to threads later. Gnite!

AHH, KURT IS MY FAVORITE TOO!! *loves the blue fuzzy dude*...haha, he's so awesome. I always meant to watch Wolverine and the X-Men, kinda fill the hole Evo left behind, but never got around to it.

I'd count Avatar (only seen a couple of episodes of that - I know fail - it's on that epic long list of things I REALLY need to see and read) as whatever the speaker wants to count it as. I'd probably say cartoon but I wouldn't bat an eye if someone started talking to me about the "anime" Avatar.

I did really like Dexter's Lab too, I always felt bad for him, what an annoying sister, haha. The sad thing is I'm probably like her too xd .

Weather here is unpredictable, some days coats, other days tank tops. It's rather annoying but at least I work inside. Actually I consider that a bummer except for the whole not really needing to heavily plan the wardrobe thing. My friend went to Tahoe a few weeks ago, and he's still in shorts mode, so that's all he took. It SNOWED!!! Haha...yea he looks ridiculous in pictures on his sled, in the snow wearing a rice picker hat (he's Mexican btw not Asian, but he always steals our chinese friend's cultural trinket in Tahoe - rain or shine or snow ^_~)

Haha, yea he is, and yea it is. And good to hear the plot is solid, maybe I'll check it out someday.

I KNOW I FAIL!!! ~_~...everytime I get in the mood and am "going to watch Avatar now," something always comes up. I know, the excuses are attrocious. There is just no forgiveness crying redface .

I am like Dexter in some ways (academically inclined, inquisitive, dedicated), but I think when it comes to me and my brother, in the Deedee/Dexter relationship I am definitely more than Deedee. I'm more social, more optimistic (which is totally saying something because most people find me to be a tad bit negative - alleviated by a strong wash of sarcasm, as opposed to just emo status) and I love to mess with my brother and his stuff. Harder to do with him 400 miles away now though.

They were awesome photos, wish I went but I had to do app related things that weekend - I better get into grad school it's killing my social life and anime/cartoon/manga time.

*head hung in shame* nor should I be forgiven. I swear I shall make amends for this though, I swear! Before I leave the country!! Haha.

See my family - especially my dad and brother - are cave people. So pretty much if I only chatted online, and maybe about a tenth as much as I did now at that, I'd still be a thousand times more social than they are. Hannible was more social than they are. Although he was actually fairly charming, and restricted association was probably more a byproduct of his alternative lifestyle than his personality... rofl

Anyhow yea, I'm probably the black sheep too...just in an opposite family, haha.

Thanks.

Haha...in which case you'd probably be like me, jealous of seemingly every other family and their social gatherings, family reunions, holidays with the family, family vacations, etc etc etc. We all want what we can't have, I have a family whose present yet emotionally and physically absent, so I'd take any level of dysfunction just to have something.

I guess we should all be careful what we wish for though.

@Ghost: Yay, happy birthday Kaiba! <3 Love your tribute.

@JK: That's sad to hear. D: I knocked on wood as well, and am hoping for many happy years to come for your mom.
I think this is a good example of how Kaiba would react to his birthday: http://foxysquid.deviantart.com/art/Happy-Birthday-Seto-141463339
