Change of plan

[alexisjane]

So I was supposed to be going to visit my family tomorrow, which some of you might know isn't exactly the most restful thing for me and I was all ready to write a moany post about having to travel really far with a dog who sheds and couch surfing for fours days and use this infographic...



...but then my mother just cancelled on me!! Admittedly I'm a bit sad that I don't get to see her or my bro for a few more weeks but mostly I'm happier than I should be that I can finish off some work that needs doing and start editing my BB...and that I get to use this gif instead...



I'm a homebody. Home is where I'm happiest. Also there's wi-fi here : ) x

That info graphic is perfect - I could live weeks without food, water and sleep, but I can't go more than a few hours without Internet without getting antsy. It's scary considering, a couple of years ago, I was hardly ever online...lol..

Those few weeks will fly by and then you'll get to see them...and by then, you'll have your BB polished up some and that work done and you'll probably have an even better time. :-)

Lol, yeah...if I didn't have to leave my house, I never would...I've got everything I need - my kitten, my iPad and my bed...lol...

I do sometimes feel like I'm looking at a screen all day and constantly checking my email on my phone if I'm out...totally addicted!

i spoke to my bro today and he was fine with it. Very happy to be at home though : ) x

You're parents don't have WIFI???? Do they live in a cave?? (and sorry, maybe they do, and maybe it's a really nice cave. But I would probably stop visiting my parents if they didn't have wifi...)

[alexisjane.livejournal.com]

Nope, no wi-fi and I was going to have to stay with my aunt for a couple of nights and she DOESN'T HAVE ANY INTERNET AT ALL! Unacceptable. I can't believe we're even related! x

[anactoria.livejournal.com]

Ahahaha, that's just too accurate.

[alexisjane.livejournal.com]

Scary accurate : / I am utterly addicted x

I'm so with you there, I would feel the same - I visited my sister on Sunday and was out from 10am until 8pm and I swear I was getting internet withdrawal symptoms!! 'Home is where the wi-fi is' - and all the pretty boys!

[alexisjane.livejournal.com]

I just kept thinking, What is the world coming to if you can't look at porn on your ipad!...I'm not sure what level of 'first world problems' that comes under but I think it's pretty high : ) x

[jj1564.livejournal.com]

It's not porn, it's 'fine art appreciation'!! That's what I tell myself anyways!

[alexisjane.livejournal.com]

Yup, well, the Samwannabe vid certainly is a thing of beauty alright : ) x

[ephermeralk.livejournal.com]

Uggghhh. Our power was out yesterday evening and I had to go MUTLIPLE hours without internet!

So I went out drinking instead. A fair substitute, imo.

Yaaay. Editing BB. Did you turn in your draft?

[somersault-j.livejournal.com]

So I went out drinking instead. A fair substitute, imo. Mwahaha *stops laughing* drinking *frowns* drunk...there was something I was supposed to do :P

How is your BB?? Is it all ready for handing the draft over to the mods of the challenge? :)

[ephermeralk.livejournal.com]

I actually handed it in on Sunday!!

[somersault-j.livejournal.com]

YES!!!

[ephermeralk.livejournal.com]

I've heard from my beta's that the porn in it is really hot. So if nothing else. There's that. (And about 1/2 of it is pure porn...so...)

[somersault-j.livejournal.com]

1/2 of it is pure porn

WAY TO TEASE ME!!!!!

[ephermeralk.livejournal.com]

Also, speaking of drinking. I do believe that you should be writing something along those lines. 8 weeks and counting, bb!

p.s. I cannot wait to read my b-day present while sipping a mai-tai on the beach of Hawaii. I will be the happiest-person on the planet.

[somersault-j.livejournal.com]

I may have asked skeletn in a spur-of-a-moment decision, if she wants to help me make it dirty. Her answer was 'HELL YES!'. I'm not sure if you should be scared or not. But you should probably read it behind closed doors and not at some sunny beach now ;)

[ephermeralk.livejournal.com]

LOL. Well, she knows what I like, so it should be awesome!! Super excited, bb

[alexisjane.livejournal.com]

Drinking is fairly comparable, esp if you're in an establishment with good 3G coverage : )

I did!! I made the email and then looked at it for about 15mins before I could actually press send! Talk about nerve wracking!

Now all I have to do is pretty much re-write the thing : ) x

[ephermeralk.livejournal.com]

eee. Now do you understand why I had the ridiculous urge to hack all my hair off once I submitted?! Seriously. It should not be that stressful. Except how it was!

[firesign10.livejournal.com]

Hahahaha bb, I am with you LOL!!! Note that it is taking a Con to pry me from my little house!!! ;-)

[alexisjane.livejournal.com]

I can see how that would be pretty motivational : ) But then I bet they have free wi-fi! : ) x

[wendy.livejournal.com]

Man, I feel that way too -- home is where I can have everything just the way I like it. (Except ice cream. I'm always out of ice cream!)

♥

[alexisjane.livejournal.com]

IKR! Esp with my parents. They eat at weird times of the day and do stuff in a way which just seems...well, it's all weird to me. Home is much nicer, although now I'm acutely aware of my own ice-cream deficit : ( I prepared to pop out for that though : ) x

[somersault-j.livejournal.com]

Bwahahaha, that graphic...*looks at it sideways*...except for the sleep, I NEED MY SLEEP!! I need my eight hours! I could probably survive with five hours or even three hours, but I don't want to. I love to sleep, I can sleep anytime...huh, I should probably let that check out.

But I totally agree with 'Home is where I'm happiest'!!! When I walk through my door after a long day at work, I can breathe and relax and probably sleep.

And again, BIIIIIIG BAAAAAAANG!!!! :D

[alexisjane.livejournal.com]

So, you know I'm going to make you do the BigBang next year, right? Right? : )

My sleep pattern has gone so weird lately. I sleep 4-5 hours 6 nights a week and the 12 hours on one night. It's bizarre! I blame all the lovely fic keeping me up! x

[somersault-j.livejournal.com]

I want to see you try. Noooooooo, YOU CAN'T MAKE ME!!! :P

I have to admit I mostly fall asleep with my kindle in my hand. It happens quite often that it falls out of my hand (not kidding). Then I'm always grateful that I'm lying on my couch or in my bed, so it falls soft and won't crash on the floor.

And did you send your BB over yet?? :D

[alexisjane.livejournal.com]

Oh Hunny, it's ON!!! I'm already planning out my next one : ) You should start thinking about it now so we can brain storm some ideas!

I actually bought an ipad so I can write in bed so I can fall asleep in it rather than on the sofa!

I did : ) (so desperate to know what you think!) x

[somersault-j.livejournal.com]

You want to send it over to me again? I'm curious to see what you added, edited, changed. SEND IT OVER TO MEEEEEE!!!! I'm off work the day after tomorrow. I could read it through then :)

[septembers-coda.livejournal.com]

HURRAY FOR STAYING HOUSEBOUND! Err, I mean... hurray for Wi-Fi and getting stuff done. But seriously. Love my house and my internet. I'm also quite fond of sleep, food and water, though. <3

I stole this wonderful gif for my Bunker Party collection, so you might see it again soon. <3 <3

[alexisjane.livejournal.com]

It so bad how happy I was to stay in my little cave! I'm so hopeless : )
Yes, do! I saw it yesterday and it made me really laugh.
Just adorkable *squishes them* x

[thestarkat.livejournal.com]

The busier I get the more I want to stay at home. Thank goodness for data plans so at least I can obsessively check my email when I'm out and about. If I had to visit people for days without wifi I would probably break down sobbing in a corner. <3

[alexisjane.livejournal.com]

If my phone doesn't beep at least once an hour, I get convinced it's broken!
My parents place isn't too bad as I can watch porn check my emails over 3G but my Aunt's house is in a void...I think I would have lasted about 90 mins before completely losing it! : ) x

[big-heart-june.livejournal.com]

Home is where I'm happiest.

Absolutely, darling ♥ also, it never fails to horrify me how utterly utterly panicky I get when I lose internet connection. what is my life? :P

you've been quiet over at the comm. I miss you over there ♥♥

[alexisjane.livejournal.com]

How did it happen that we're so dependent on it! It's so weird I know I have, but hopefully, now my BB draft is in, I won't be so preoccupied...except I have to edit and get it beta'd and do some work and finish my cinema paintings...*sighs* ♥ x

[milly-gal.livejournal.com]

That chart is so not true, lol, Internet first, always! ;)

Sorry you don;t get to see the famalam, but at least you get time to chill and finish stuff off :)

[alexisjane.livejournal.com]

I had a long chat with my bro on the phone so that was cool and it's only going to be a few weeks so actually I think it turned out really well : ) x

[milly-gal.livejournal.com]

Long as you get to see them eventually, nothing worse than missing people, but the long chat sounds great and then at least you have some bits to keep you occupied ;)
