The January random thread sinks ever deeper into the morass of winter — at least for those in the Northern Hemisphere. Antipodean MuseBloggers must be quite comfortable now. Continued from Part One.
(Users’ Manual: Obey The Rules. Consult The Guide. Have fun!)
MuseBlog is being overhauled so that various components will work nicely together and not explode into a chrono-synclastic infundibulum or something. As a result, things may look odd around here for a while. We regret the inconvenience.

Nope. My winter is still quite timid here in New York.
Wow, new soup background — I love it!
::pies for all::
This week, weather-wise, has been absolutely CRAZY.
Last week, we had weather in the tens and twenties (F). The beginning of this week, we had weather in the SIXTIES (::jaw drops, realizes that isn’t far enough, unhinges, drops to the ground::), and now the weather is creeping back towards the tens…I think it was 16 degrees yesterday.
Honestly, I don’t know what has happened to the Earth. ::jaw drops again, at sixty-degree weather sandwiched between ten-degree weather, which happened in one week::
*blinks* it.. changed!
ah well, I still like soup!
Heeeeeeyyyyy…we got a new thread.
Alice needs to be studying. Alice is not studying. Alice will alternate studying with blogging.
Alice needs more sleep. She has to go to bed earlier tonight.
recently it was thirty degrees in the morning while going to zero period (PE DDDDDD:) and while to your hardcore east coasters who eat ice for breakfast might not find that too bad, I am a wimpy Californian and consequently froze to death and died
I think with the new random thread I’m going to shorten my name, not even add the (and such) as I usually do. It looks…cleaner, I guess. More organized.
Yes. I’m posting at 11:43 p.m. And what are you gonna do about it? *tries to look agressive* *fails horribly*
Love the pic!
I just discovered that my electric kettle still works (it fell into the sink and got wet some time ago) so now I can have hot chocolate and oatmeal for breakfast!!
(6) It’s true: nothing gets you going in the morning like a deep, glistening bowl of ice. If you face down the cold right away and internalize it (so to speak), nothing you encounter outdoors is likely to bother you. Highly recommended for you flash-frozen Californians.
9-HAHAH! Robert, GAPAS in general, you are too funny

I forgot to say! For several days!
The other day my mother and I went to the MVA, and got a picture ID made for me! It pwns, and is sort of like a mostly harmless ID too, but that’s not why we got it, of course!
Red-tailed HAWK
was this pic taken from the first one, or was it recompiled?
(12, TMFA) They’re both from the same file. Every element in the graphic is created on its own layer or group of layers, so I can turn layers on or off, add masks, move things about, or fiddle with individual filter settings.
13- ah.
wow, there is mimi in the table cloth! i didn’t notice before!
actualy my winters winding down (and i’m one of the furthest north!) and it keeps raining.
Ooh, soup sounds good right now. Maybe I’ll have it for dinner because it is FREEZING here!! And to think I wore a t shirt on monday…
It’s the weekend! w00t! *happy dance* Now I have all weekend to study… for… finals. hmmm. Right now, I’m just taking a six hour study break. yeah. maybe it should be twelve hours… too much stress is bad, you know!
I love the pic, btw.

I really just want to crawl in a hole right now and die.
My Music Theory teacher is a rhymes-with-witch who said today that our school doesn’t have work ethic.
I had to write the midterm essay for French in class today, and not only couldn’t finish it in class, but couldn’t go during gym to finish it because I couldn’t get out of gym.
I found out that D, the guy that I’ve really started to like recently, has had a girlfriend for about a month.
And I found out that M might be graduating early, and going to work with the Clinton campaign, which means that I wouldn’t see him at school.
And I had to go to the world’s most uninspiring pep rally today.
6- what about the hardcore midwesterners? it gets really cold and snowy here!
I’m going ice skating for the first time in a year. Again. Yup, I’m hanging at one of those school discount places with all my homies…
17- Don’t worry, La Mort, it will get better. It always does eventually.
18-midwesterners unite!
12/15 on the chem lab part of the exam…my calculations were right, but it was practical and i measured a bit too much HCl out so it ended up acidic. 5/5 for the amount of CO2 though, and 5/5 for using up all the NAHCO3. Lizzy got a 13/15 and jacob got a 11/15, so i’m about average i guess. jake got a perfect (duh) as did several other people
so that’s an 80% so far…and my goal is to not bring my total exam grade any lower than that.
i have math on monday, which i should probably go over. it should be ok though…
then tuesday is AP L/C, should be ridiculously easy…multiple choice and essays over stuff we did in class, and then an AP (hopefully synthesis) essay
band is just a rehearsal, then on wednesday i have brit lit (ridiculously easy…i live on that stuff) and CHEM (*chews up fingernails*)
and then on thursday it’s just AP gov, which should be ok if i go over the stuff.i think it’s two FRQs, which are easy, and multiple choice.
whoooooooooooo crunch time.
Last week was crazy, so today i just got home, made popcorn, and watched the count of monte cristo (amazing movie btw…i think it might’ve been better than the book, although i haven’t read the book in a while…should read it again and compare)
clinton campaign booo. <.> obama was close in NH though!
and pep rallies are generally just as uninspiring as they are meant to be inspiring. so if the pep rally is supposed to be this huge, exciting thing, it’s the most boring thing ever.
1. All our snow melted….
We had a ton of snow, but it melted. x_X
My school is going on an all-school ski trip next Friday. HOORAY!
Hello. Again. How are you? I am fine. We have internet. This means I no longer have to kneel on the heat vent in front of the window to catch other people’s wireless. It also means I have to find a source of income so that I can help pay for it (that was the agreement).
I did not go to sleep earlier last night, and I also forgot to set my alarm. So I awoke at 7:14 and frenziedly prepared for school so that me mum could drive me. And she did. And I wasn’t even late.
24-Hooray for Internet!
And sleeping in late as well.
Hello everyone!
Today is my 19th birthday. Tomorrow’s my party, which is going to be absolutely huge. My family owns an acre of land, so about 40 people are coming. There will be live entertainment and lots of food, so it’s going to be a blast. So sorry you can’t come.
As this day comes to an end, it’s time for reflection. Another year has gone by. Friends have left me, new ones have come, and college approaches quickly. It’s been a year of discovery, both in myself and in humanity.
During this past year, I’ve had so many travels – that’s the good thing about waiting a year before college, after high school. I’ve been around the world (in more than 60 days), suffered the effects of jet lag, tasted new foods, and experienced different things. My short stay in Iraq and the Middle East, my travels through Vietnam with my family living there, having a drink in an Irish pub (with real Irishmen!), discovering my roots in France, traveling down the Amazon River, exploring the deserts of Egypt – it’s all made a big difference. My perspective of the world’s really changed – I see now that really, humanity is worth fighting for.
I look forward to the future because I know that I will be there, fighting to make the world a better place, fighting to make people see the true beauty around them, fighting to make myself a better person, and fighting to live.
A journey ends. Another begins.
Thank you.
Happy birthday, Faye! It’s good to have you with us. May your adventures be unending.
Yay! Student discount ice skating!
Almost everybody was out there on the ice tonight. List of events:
1) I learned how to skate, with the aid of Rachel, Hannah, Laura, and Cessia
2) Ethan and his GF Quinn snuck up behind me and pushed me so I would “go faster”
3) I snuck up behind Ethan and Quinn in their cute little Cute-Synchronized-Couple-Skating and pushed Ethan
4) Quinn sought revenge and didn’t really get it
5) Evan asked Laura out and she said no (thank God)
6) Mr. Runfola did a back flip (or a back flop, depending on how you look at it)
7) I skated straight into Cessia
8) I tried to teach Emma how to skate but failed
9) Deron crashed into me
10) Clique skated a couple times with a couple different cliques
11) Danced to “Hey Ya” with Laura and Cessia
12) Emma stole Allison’s RedBull and drank it all
13) Evan said he was gonna ask Kayla out
14) I tripped a couple cheerleaders (they deserved it, I promise)
And Avery and Cessia look cute together. But that didn’t exactly “happen”.
26- Meep! That’s old! Happy birthday!
hello all…
summer has finally set in n my New Zealand South Island city of ******
it reached 30 degrees (celcius) or 82 degrees (farienheit) and I went to see a movie, Alvin and the Chipmunks no less (I know I know) which was…quite cute in a sappy way and then I had to run for the bus through the Octagon with EVERYBODY watching me and then my cellphone fell out of my pocket and the bus driver laughed but waited anyway and then cracked some lame joke and everyone on the bus laughed except me and….well yea..
And now Im at home and I ate some gum and on the packet it said “HUBBA BUBBA BLUEBERRY FLAVOUR” and it was strawberry and I bought some shorts and now I have no more money until February which is tres tres merde but I may be abke to squeeze some from my dad not literally of couse, he may not be too thrilled about that
I just typed an icredibly long post and it is not appearing dang it!
man…is anyone on these posts…(I hate being in a 12 hour time difference -__-)
Weekend To-Do List:
Clean House
Go To Bakery
Cook
Write Field & Lab Report
Study Study Study
Call Mrs. D And Ask Her If I Can Dust Bookshelves Again
Clean My Closet
Clean My Backpack
Email Prop Person With List of Necessary Props
Catch Up on my Sleep
Write
With such a busy weekend ahead of me, I think I will now retire to my rather messy room and work on Catching Up On My Sleep before I destroy my keyboard by toppling onto it.
Alice (33): Why do you WANT to dust Mrs. D’s bookshelves? I am baffled. (As you can see, I’m not especially enamored of dusting.)
34-i would assume for money. or possibly books
(33-35) Yes, if I were Mrs. D, I’d inspect my shelves for more than dust!
My cat is crazy. Literally. You don’t want to know.
I went to see the Harlem Globetrotters last night. And it was ohmygod HILARIOUS! I was laughing the whole time. And then i went and looked up the history on Wikipedia and it was really interesting.
OMG THEY PUT UP THE SIGNS AT MOSCONE!!! “THERE’S SOMETHING IN THE AIR”!!!! OOH WIMAX WIRELESS USB WIRELESS IPHONE/MAC SYNCING MAC TABLET NEW OS!!!
Sorry. Macworld 2008. Geeky hyper time for me.
37- They also guest stared in episodes of Scooby-Doo!
I don’t want to go back to school on Monday.
Unfortunately, it’s the week before midterms.
I have to go, just to review everything.
I don’t want M to leave.
I don’t want to see D again.
And you guys don’t care do you?
34- Because I get paid for it.
i was at my schools lip sync comp last night. good god, it was freakin hilarias! my friends, Milan and Derek, did Jump on It, by the Sugar Hill gang, and I did Dance Like an Idiot by Lemon Demon, the same guy who did the ultimate showdown
refrering back to post 6, Axa, we “east costers” are having 50 degree weather. It Sucks! We’re supposed to have feet of snow on the ground this tiem of year, not have it melt away! I was supposed to go snowboarding for my first time today, and now I cant, beczause there is NO SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! At least we’re supposed to have a now storm on monday, but i doubt it’ll stick at all
back to my first post[by the way, im just multiple posting because i have nothing better to do] i did the moonwalk and got more cheering than anyone else, and didnt even get third place! everyone says i got ripped off, the judges were high, etc. the kids that did win, the judges felt sorry for them because tech messed up their music. whatev. ill just have a “dance” with them on monday “heh heh” as you can see, im in a very bad mood
42) oh seriously…that’s crazy. and I said that cause I complain about cold weather and seeing as most MBers are not on the west coast I expect a backlash of UR WIMPYYYYY -STONE THROWING-
(44) Axa, at least you waited until the temp hit 30 before you complained. When I lived in Los Alamitos, the yelping started as soon as the thermometer dipped below 60. Glad to see you’re made of sterner stuff.
Maybe this is when I should sigh and say, “oh, you know, the wimps in my day, now those were real wimps.”
39- I care. I’m going to take midterms that week, too.
If it cheers you up, the Messenger space probe is going to fly by Mercury on Monday. First surface images in 33 years.
our weather alternates between around twenty or thirty and around ten or zero. Farenheit that is.
39-I care, because although I’m not in love with one gay and another guy, there are quite a few people I may blush at seeing again. After ice skating.
I don’t like cold. I DON’T LIKE COLD. *murders cold*
*tired*
I’M SO TIRED.
Ha ha ha it is lovely and sunny here in in Southern Californ-i-yay. If you can see your breath here it’s cold and people wear padded jackets with fur in the hoods. And if the sprinkler water freezes we have a field day and consider cancelling school.
I love the Word Detective.
today we had amazing weather…for fall. oh well, i wasn’t complaining-it was in the mid-50’s, and incredibly sunny. we went to montrose and played soccer instead of studying like we were technically supposed to be doing. eep.
38- Haha, lol. That’s pretty cool.
I just found this AMAZING game on a site called Nonuba and the game is called Untangle 1.2 and it’s addicting! XD
Meh. It’s basically 45º out here. And there are SQUIRRELS! I hate you global warming. I think I’ll move to the moon.
53-Squirrels? Well, if you don’t like what’s going on here on Earth, moving to the moon is great! It is slowly moving away from the Earth itself!!
Red-tailed HAWK
There’s a mostly harmless website called Wikihow where you learn how to do a whole bunch of stuff you don’t need to know. Like how to polish your shoe with a banana.
I am SO sorry that I have’nt posted in a while. I have been busy with procrastinating and sleeping in. I am sleeping on myfloor because my bed is covered with stuff from my floor. Speaking of squirrels, they ate my calendar, I think it’s April with all the rain around here!
11~ i have one of those. I hate the picture they took, my one eye sags sometimes and in the picture I look deformed. [/rant]
I spent the day with my friend, her Mom, Grandmother and little brother. Now I’m readly to fall asleep on the keyboard. uugh. *falls asleep*
I have nothing witty or brilliant to say, so I will end this post before I digress into random thoughts that nobody really needs to hear. Or read, or whatever.
I have not been on here for so long! I have had nothing to say, but now I come with a dire warning:
NEVER, EVER, EVER watch Time Bandits! It is the stupidest movie ever made!!!!! It most likely causes brain damage! (which is surprising because there are four Python people in it!)
Okay, I’m done now.
Musical rehearsals started! We practiced enunciation and volume, and I got to yell at the top of my lungs across the gym! It was very entertaining.
Brain damage, eh? That explains a thing or two. Rosanne and I both love “Time Bandits.”
58- But I love Time Bandits!
Here’s a warning for you:
If you ever decide to have kids, don’t have more then one. It will cause one or the other of them extraordinary pain.
Right now, I cannot think what I would like more than for me to not live with my little sister.
Time Bandits pwns all!
Except for possibly Galaxy Quest, since that movie’s also sehr pwnsome.
I won’t argue that either one is the most intelligent movie ever made, but I love them anyhow.
61-You’ve obviously never been an only child. Why don’t you try it for a while? It’s not all fun and games either. Trust me. I’ve been an only child before. In fact, that’s all I’ve been, an only child. I envy those with siblings to torture/be tortured by.
(62) By Grabthar’s hammer, “Galaxy Quest” does indeed pwn.
I’m an only child and lovin’ it. I would never exchange my wonderful, wonderful solitude for “companionship” by a whining, drooling, subhuman OBJECT which is dumber than the average pig.
62- Galaxy Quest! *falls off chair laughing* That’s also a great movie.
63- I don’t think so. Maybe when I was younger it was alright, but in the past few years I’ve become increasingly bitter towards her. Even when it’s not her fault, I still hate her.
When she was first born, I was delighted. I even remember chanting “Opal, Opal, the joy of my grief!” (I was three.) The next day, it is reported (though I don’t remember this part) I hated her for taking up my mother’s time. I think when I stopped being able to play her games, we started fighting. She went to school for much of that time, luckily. And then my mom started working in the evenings, and it got worse.
And worse.
And worse.
I can see how an only child would think that having siblings would be great (probably much like I think being an only child would be great) and it probably would be till one of you entered puberty. As a girl who has spent most of her time reading and has become entirely detached from social life, being an only child might be nice to try.
I’ll trade you, Beavo.
47) o__o -puts on jacket- Midwestern weather right? oh man…
50) and ugg boots don’t forget ugg boots
to which I say…UGGGHHHHH
65-If I had gotten a sibling, he/she would never be the same again.
65- That’s a little extreme.
Mother says that I would be selfish if I had grown up an only child, but I argue that the feelings I harbor towards my sister are far more selfish than would be the feelings I would have if I was an only child.
Hey everyone! I havnt been on here for forever. I just wanted to say that there is a website called freerice.com, where they give you a word, and you click on the word with the same meaning. For every word you get right, they donate 20 grians of rice to the United Nations to fight world hunger. Please help!
[Us GAPAs are not keen on posting links to external sites but we’ll make an exception for freerice.com — Rosanne]
65-Actually pigs are smarter than dogs. Istn that interesting?
A question for Pan and THF: How is the next MuseCast coming? Is it done? Is it *almost* done?
I’ve been both. Well, I was only an only child up until age two when my brother was born but I’ve sat all day in an empty house when he abandons me and goes to the neighbors’. it’s lonely. He’s a great brother though and we talk for hours. I’d never give him up.
Galaxy Quest rocks! “Never give up–never surrender!”
I have a little sister (2 years younger) but she’s two inches taller than me and takes classes at the community college (she’s homeschooled). So I don’t know if I’ve got a little sister or a biology major living with me.
63- Trust me, Beavo, if you had 3 siblings, you would think otherwise.
65- Pigs aren’t that dumb. But I still wish I was an only child! *is jealous*
I am technically an only child, and yes, I probably am spoiled but I have 3 half-siblings on my dads side and 2 on my mums b ut they are too old to live with me and I wish that I had a sister or brother
74- I know. Pigs are smart. But not as smart as Musers, or even as smart as normal people.
I’m fine if people like or dislike their siblings. What annoys me (I’m an only child) is when people who have children who dislike each other try to make themselves feel good by saying, “Oh, poor you, you have no brothers or sisters. Let my children help you!”
I can see how their children are so much happier because of having each other
When I think about it, I am always going to be open for criticism. I am an only child who is homeschooled, is vegetarian, doesn’t swear, doesn’t really play any sports, reads Muse, and yet I’m usually always extremely happy. I just don’t fit in with what’s expected!!
Red-tailed HAWK
77-you say yet like you’re surprised…i can see causes for extreme happiness in there, especially being an only child, being homeschooled, and reading muse
OMG! The black sheep in new zealand are getting revenge and they’re MAD! Well yeah that’s on amovie cover and it’s really creepy! and no way, PIGS R NOR SMARTER THAN US!!!

61 – I know what you mean.
By the way, if anyone from IL is in the First Lego League robotics state competition, look for the green-haired team. Yesterday was our local competition, and we won first place technical award and qualified for state. Our team name is [snip!] (feel free to snip that) [thanks], so we died our hair and painted our nails green. (It’s an all girls team.)
I just went and saw The Golden Compass. I actually tried to read it a day before I saw it, and got only halfway through.
I guess it was okay. Skip it if I were you.
I feel old. I began posting on the Gaboomba in 2003. Well, late 2003 but it was 5 years ago! aaah.
As a result of several comments concerning the complexity of my name, I shall now proceed to teach you how to say “Faye Beauchamp.” Admittedly, it looks difficult – this is why I despise substitute teachers, as they always get it wrong.
FAY BO-shamp
“FAY” rhymes with “way”
“BO” rhymes with “no”
“shamp” rhymes with “womp”
I suppose you could call me Way No-Womp, but that just sounds peculiar. In fact, I don’t like that name at all.
—
Allow me to tell you a story about myself and my name.
My family has a tradition that a baby girl’s grandmother (on the father’s side) is allowed to name the child and that a baby boy’s grandfather (on the mother’s side) is allowed to name the child. My grandmother was dead at the time I was born, which then caused a huge dispute among my family as to who should name me.
Finally, the responsibility fell to my mother’s oldest sister. My aunt was quite the hippie at that time. She named me Faye, which is a french name version of “fairy”.
End of story time!
My lego team got 3rd place in the research part
But got 11th on the robot part.
oh, well.
:ugeek:
92- that’s exactly how i pronounce your name. it’s pronaounced how it’s spelled (in my brain anyways)
bunny attack!
Has anyone seen the trailer for the movie “Untraceable”? and has anyone gone to the actual website? apparantly it’s really creepy…
geek attack!?
:geek: :geek: :geek:
aw, man!
…so, then of course i had to make several demotions among my staff, and that made the budget cuts funkielicioswqwicbihbrwhatever. he he.
Bunnies!(if you haven’t guessed by now, i’m kinda obsessed.)
Flying Circus, whoever you are, please stop multiple-posting. If you have something to say, say it in one or two posts, not ten. Also, please don’t pointless-post.
89-Cool about the lego stuff, but I will now commence having a good time about a spelling error
People criticized me intensely for spelling “dyed” “died” when I ranted about people killing hair cells (and sometimes brain cells for some people, but I doubt that with most musers) and now someone thinking it is good spelled it that way. And look at your name! This is funny, and I don’t mean to be mean, and I hope it doesn’t sound so, but I just wanted to point that out.
Ebeth-well, beyond that I am just a happy person, but it’s especially funny because people pick on me and act like I shouldn’t be happy with my supposed “bad” circumstances.
I will now stop talking about these topics here as there are special threads for them, but I did want to point this out.

er, hello.
Faye, I pronounced your name how one would in French.
-wanders off-
Aaaah! Where are all these
newbiesneophytes coming from? *takes out heavy-duty pie launcher* *piepiepiepie*109-I think they’re coming from Muse. (omg!)
-steals your heavy-duty pie launcher-
Too many newbs…where are you all coming from?
A Muser is not just someone who reads Muse, it is someone who is curious about the world and eager to learn new things.
Just a random thought.
112-Exactly! And a MuseBlogger doesn’t even have to read Muse, as long as they fulfil that second part.
These past few weeks have been quite busy and stressful and such. I am presenting my Long-Term Project (every honors student does one every year, in either the first or second semester) on Friday, so I have been working on that nonstop, and I have finals the week after that. I’ll be really happy when the semester is over, though — it will feel like I have hardly any work!
I don’t really remember what I last reported about my mom, but they found cancer in 7 out of the 21 lymph nodes they removed. She has her first round of Chemo on Thursday, and she’s doing it every other week for 4 weeks.
96) that movie looks hilarious. YOU HACKED INTO MAI KAR COMPUTAR???!?!?!?!! hahahahahahaha
seriously…he’s using the hits on his website to kill people. how can anyone take that seriously. I’m going to kill you with the internet, okay.
144- *hands pie to you and your mom and THF/P* I wish you guys well!
meh. I haven’t been on for a long time. It hs been a most interesting week.
A rant on the science fair no one wants to hear:
Wednesday was the science fair, which being the champion procrastinator, I had only done half of.
The funny(pathetic) part was that I got second place. Which means I get to go to district.
I found out some entertaining(scary) things about one of the judges:
1. She doesn’t believe in evolution.
2. I got a higher score n the ACT than she did. (I got 26 if anyone wants to know.[yes I know you didn’t])
3. She thinks all *christkillers* (jewish people) are going to burn in hell.
117- Well they are supposed to have a variety of judges. But that is quite strange to have someone that has those views on Evolution on such judging a science fair. Is she a teacher? Because that might be even scarier! Shivers
I once had a science teacher who believed that preaching in class to her students about God was right and that any “evidence” for evolution had been fabricated (i.e., there was, and I quote, “absolutely no way that humans were related to primates”.)
I mean cummon. A science teacher! And the place was a public city school!
…Not that I’m trying to infringe upon other people’s beliefs. I’m just telling you what happened, that’s all.
I’m sorry. Does this post not belong here? I was just responding to post 117.
I’ll just wander away now… *wanders away*
Mom thinks I’m sick.
*pouts*
I do too, but it’s not like I’m gonna say so.
119- no,no it’s fine. there is an evolution thread.
120-lol, that sounds just like me. Even if I have 103 degree fever and the doctor says I have pneumonia, I’m still not sick. I think that as long as I feel fine, I’m not sick, and I always feel fine.
120-lol, that sounds just like me. Even if I have 103 degree fever and the doctor says I have pneumonia, I’m still not sick. I think that as long as I feel fine, I’m not sick, and I always feel fine.
(120) EAA — if you continue to post as your alter ego on non-Alter Ego threads, I’ll have to have to add it to the “Who’s Here” page. Careful, please.
ACK! There are billions of comments to catch up on! I’m drowining in them. And I’m also falling asleep again. I’ve got to stop wearing myself out on homework so then I can post more on MB. [Kidding! It was a joke, really!]
I guess I’d better be off. See you later. I hope the Musers that aren’t feeling good have miraculous recoveries. Have some pie. (Not thrown) *hands over pie*
115 – no, he kills people based on how many hits he gets on his website. Uses contraptions and such.
120,122- Same here!
I am absolutely bored right now.
It is currently snowing.
Which is why I’m not in school right now.
It’s been snowing since 2 AM, and will be snowing all day.
I need to start studying for midterms today.
Actually I had planned to start studying last Monday, but that kinda never happened.
can sumone please talk to me abut my problem, mentioned in 41 &43? does anyone care? meanswhile, its a snow day! after all of the snow melted, we have some again. only a couple inches, but im happy
i wish i knew of a way to post the video of my schools lip sync on here. that would be sweet
130- What do you want someone to say about your problem? Do you want even more people to sympathize with you? There’s not anything that we can do (since hunting down the judges would be illegal and since time travel isn’t possible).
ANYBODY WHO IS ON L’EQUIPE NOIR FOR THE CLASSIC PIE WAR THREAD, READ THIS:
Zemtee has taken over the Classic Pie War thread. We need to arrange to attack and take it over again. Anybody who has ideas for a dead thread that we could commandeer for discreet planning purposes, go to that thread, and try a test post to see if anybody responds.
So I’m all drugged up (legally, duh) and “feeling better”. Of course, I’m not actually less sick. But when you have a mom who reads huge medical texts for bedtime reading and watches ER every night, I guess you can expect that.
Have you ever gargled saltwater with dissolved asprin, taken two Mucinex pills, taken two Tylanol pills, taken two Melatonin pills and consumed three cough drops (lemon flavored, yum!)?
NEWS ALERT:
The MESSENGER probe is doing the Mercury flyby RIGHT NOW!
EVERYBODY: Go to your library RIGHT NOW and check out the book “The Overacheivers”. It’s hilarious, and educational to boot!
It’s all about these kids who are “Overacheivers”. You know the type: All AP classes, GT, three sports teams, straight As, CTY, and can speak Chinese.
I just noticed something. Ag started MuseBlogging on my birthday.
Deja vu, anyone?
I am bored. I shouldn’t be bored…
I move to New Zealand in 14 days to start school
I am starting to flip out because I haven’t packed anything, and I am running out of time
137/138-You two should get together sometime. TIBS won’t be bored, and TPSPOP will have help packing.
oh dont worry- i’ll have enough help from my mom and my dog
I’ve been reading this great historical fiction series, the Sharpe series by Bernard Cornwell. I’ve seen some of the BBC productions starring Sean Bean, but I must say, the books are a lot better. If you like both thriller novels and history, these books are your equivalent of chocolate. They’re that good.
132- OY! I’m there! and as you know i’m firmly opposed to zemtee! how do you say “possible alliance”?
okay, today i realized on the bus home that i had forgotten to go to a vitaly important stagecrew meeting.
i had jazz today which is very physicaly demanding. i was actualy drowning in sweat. except i actualy got two of the combinations so i was feeling really good.
i’m happy though because my friend liam, who was sick with bronchytis (sp?) is back. he is funny. i really like him as a friend.
those are the random thoughts o’ kagy’s day.
135- It actually mentions CTY???
142- OY! 2 people can’t take down all of Zemtee on their own! I need my army, too! An alliance could work, I guess. But we need more people!
ROFFLE MY WOFFLES.
A greater phrase there could never be.
MACWORLD!!!!! *hypers about apple* MacBook Air. CHUSSCHUSSCHUSS! And iTunes movie rentals!
Sorry about the sporadicity (word?) but I’ve been, er, distracted by Science Olympiad. durrr.
Yeah, but I think that the alliance is not strong.
144- OY! i am awesome. we’ll see if two people can’t take down zemtee *whispers* okay you tackle them from behind and i’ll get out the pie gatling guns! i hope you know that this post is in a friendly tone.
146- so are you in???????
i took the cty sats and got aa better score than my cousin- and shes in college. im in 8th grade
147- YO! We have an alliance!
102 – Feel free to criticize me for any spelling errors. I’m not going to win a spelling bee by spelling words wrong.
145 – I’ve always been curious about Science Olympiad. I do Science Bowl, which consists of a Quiz Bowl-type thing about science questions and hydrogen fuel cell car race, but I’ve heard that Science Olympiad is completely different.
127) lulz exactly. it’s like saw with the internet. I guess it could be scary, but I think it’s a really bad set up.
Isn’t that CTY place the setting for a movei like that…I thought I read that on wiki, which is of course the most reliable place ever as we know, haha
133- Isn’t there a warning on the bottles about not mixing drugs or something…?
150- NATIONAL OCEAN SCIENCES BOWL!!!!!
I love it.
143-Programs like CTY. I haven’t read the whole thing though, it might.
*falls asleep on keyboard* vvvvvvv vf fvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv bbbbbbbbbbbbbb
Isn’t it funny how when you land face first on your keyboard, all it does is press one key?
It’s windy.
I have “Density will increase w/ mass, decrease w/ volume” written on my hand. Or I did once. But the writing’s begun to fade.
Last week my hand said “BHB WED.”. The meaning is known only to me.
Maybe I will go to sleep. Really this time. Not on the keyboard.
I should go make my lunch.
I don’t wanna make a commercial for The Goose Girl. Oh well. I’m going to accept that I’ll have a B when I get into Honors. (Unless my teacher likes the over-the-top, tongue in cheek commercial I write. I’ll consult her.)
Or maybe I won’t make it over-the-top. I was looking forward to having my celebrity endorsement be the President of the Association of Geese in Literature, though.
I feel like one of Beavo’s Overachievers, or at least an overreacher. Let’s see…
I have an English project due in two weeks. Standard fare. I’m going to have to read a different book, unfortunately, but oh well.
I have an EXTRA English project due in two weeks as well. This is to get into Honors English.
I have the NOSB on February 8th and 9th, plus meetings and studying..
I have rehearsals for Marvin’s Room every weekday after school from 3:15 to 5:30.
I have various odd jobs such as babysitting or dusting to give me a tiny bit of income with which to pay for my theater activities.
I don’t even have a normal brain anymore. The studying section grew so large that it now overwhelms the other areas, including the sleeping section. The only bit that holds out is the MuseBlogging bit.
AARGGGHHHHH. *is zombified by schoolwork*
Gaaaaak. I have final exams in an hour. *dies*
i have to go back to school in 21 days (febuary 5th)
(156) Hello, Sunrunner! Where have you been keeping yourself, old-timer? We haven’t seen you since last March. Everyone — pies, please.
Is it okay to post a link to a cool movie of what MESSENGER is seeing on Mercury?
158- Pies? alright, then! *takes super heavy deluxe pie launcher*
So. Luna our budgie died today. Or last night. Something. DOn’t really feel like posting right now.

Whoops. Almost posted under my alter ego.
R&D for the Pie War is currently underway.
USECGO (141): I’m going to check some of those out. Thanks for the tip.
161- I’m sorry!
166- And thank you for making me feel noticed.
USECGO, did you read any of the King Arthur books he wrote? He says on his Web site they’re his favorites. I wouldn’t mind reading some good stories about King Arthur. Curious what you thought of them — if you’ve read them.
154-Mine’s been known to press three! But that’s it, I think.
161-I’m sorry. *sympathy*
169- No, I don’t believe I have. I’ll look into that, very much.
Oh, I’m so sorry, Jadestone!

I have come here to say that I am bored. Bored with the fact that nobody seems to be in the energetic, pie-throwing mood that they used to be in. In the Classic Pie War thread, Zemtee has crushed all opposition. No one is able to stand up to us… To make a long story short, I’ve come to stir up trouble.

ATTENTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
IN CASE ANYONE MISSED IBCF’S POST, ALTHOUGH IT WOULD HAVE BEEN HARD TO DO SO, THE CLASSIC PIE WAR THREAD HAS BEEN LEFT TOTALLY UNDER ZEMTEE CONTROL. THIS IS GREAT FOR US IN A WAY, BUT I DOUBT, ONCE THE OPPOSING PARTIES REALIZE THIS, THEY WILL WANT TO LEAVE IT SUCH.
Sorry for the caps lock! I don’t think anyone can miss this post now

*sticks out tongue at Beavo* *pies back* Take that!

Some of you might think that pie wars are for random, crazy n00bs who run around screaming about “ginormous pies O doom” and such. But really, is MuseBlog all about discussion? Can’t we keep at least 1 thread for random craziness, while you can have dozens of nice, quiet discussion threads? Where will we go to satisfy our internal pie-throwing rage? That is why I’m asking you to come to the Classic pie war thread and join in the frenzy. Besides, it’s good for you. It makes to nice, quiet threads even nicer and quieter, as you will fulfill your pie-throwing urge in a classic pie war.
*PIEPIEPIEPIEPIE* (and w00t for

Eep, has this turned into a pie war? *ducks* Oh, I guess so. I guess I’l just mosey off then…
Pax! Pax! Pax! Keep pie wars on the designated threads, please.
181- People are likely to ignore posts on the pie war thread, so I have to post them here. Sorry about that.
The other day a friend of Mom’s dropped off some old candles that she was trying to get rid of. In all, not too interesting, but nestled among them was a HPB candle! I kid you not, I’ll even send pictures, once my email stops hating me.
Along with the pictures of a leaf that looked like Kokopelli. It really did, actually, it was scary.
Think I’m obsessed? [People start whispering behind my back, “she sees things related to Muse in everything.”]
183- “She sees things related to Muse in everything.” -Me whispering about you. Ah ha ha ha.
Speaking of seeing things related to other things in everything, limerence sucks.
my dog has officially gone insane
her new favorie food is marshmallws, and right now she is sitting o my lap trying to knock my laptop off the table, in hopes that i will go and give her more marshmallows
if she breaks my computer, i have promised to sell her to a marshmallow factory so she can be turned into one
Hi Robert! I’ve been unbelievably busy. I just started high school, and I haven’t had a second to breathe, let alone post. I’ll try to come on more often, since I have time to breathe now.
and she has the hiccups
(186) Well, keep breathing, at least. That’s pretty important.
I just realized that i have no homework!
Also, my cat sat on the windowsill outside protesting the cold (it was 30 F) for an hour. Ironically, he has a ton of fur (but he sheds all over the place. Hm…)
Just an announcement!
I, The Man For Aeiou Here By announce the second annual Save The Pieceful Pie Planet Conference To be held in Feather and last from January 17 until 50 post after it starts!I like breathing!
ROFFLE. Mom is being such a butt knuckle.
She’s all “I won’t sign your practice slips because you didn’t play that much” and when I say I need the time on the slip she’s like “Well it’s the practice that really counts, right?” and I go “So why don’t you sign them?” and she says “Because you didn’t practice that much.”
*eats Mom alive*
She left out like TWENTY MINUTES and I’m gonna get a bad grade.
Are there any GAPAs lurking on the blog right now? Hmm, I’m lurking…
Breathing is good
On the topic of MUSE in odd places:
Looking at a pigeon morph identification chart, I realized there is a morph called a “Pied pigeon”.
As a HAWK, I am of course interested in this especially Muse-like type 
Just kidding.
And, at a gas station near
youme there is a florescent sign on which a few letters have burnt out. It says, when lit up:Pie
Subs and Salads
A very odd order indeed, to eat things, unless you are a Muser
It was supposed to say “Blimpie” but instead gave us some publicity, as anyone, especially non-musers, must be immediately laughing on the floor when they see the “order” to the “list” 
I would have taken a picture, but coming back with a camera in the dark to a gas station didn’t seem like a good idea, either I would be killed or people would have thought I would pied someone

La Mort is ready to live up to her name. She wants to die. She wants to be dead.
And guess what everybody? La Mort doesn’t give a carp about the Classic Pie War right now.
This might mean more coming from another MBer, but — what’s the matter, LM?
193- What happened?
193-Is it heart-pouring-out-time? Wait one sec.
*gets comfortable*
Proceed. Beavo’s listening. And if you die, I’ll be mad at you. La Mort is a good friend of mine, I’d be really sad if she died. I forbid you to let La Mort die.
In general, I feel that I don’t have any purpose, meaning or reason for living right now. I feel like nobody really cares about me, I feel lonely, I feel just plain messed up.
Part of that is just the same thing that I mentioned in post 17.
Except M is definitely leaving.
He is probably the one person who has been the most influential and has had the most impact in my life.
And I am still completely in love with him.
But the thing that really upsets me is the fact that I’m afraid he’ll forget about me when he leaves. I’m afraid that he’ll do what some of my CTY friends have done. You think that you’re good friends with someone, but if you don’t see them for a few weeks, for some reason they don’t bother talking to you even if you try to keep in touch with them.
::sends love and pies to La Mort::
Today was quite a busy day. I had school as usual, then I played tennis (my usual Wednesday activity), then I worked on my LTP (Long-term Project) for a few hours. After dinner, my dad gave my mom a bunch of presents, which were really funny! First, he gave her a Halloween wig — really bad quality, fluorescent blonde, and absolutely hilarious — for “when she loses her hair.” Then, he gave her a bunch of magazines and books to read while getting Chemo and recovering and such. He also gave her a cushioned toilet-seat and a stress-reliever-squeeze-ball-thing. Then, he gave Anna, Jacob and I a little doctor-dress-up kit, fully equipped with a stethoscope and doctor’s outfit. The way he introduced all of them was really funny! Then, I did all of my homework and practiced piano. Yayfun!
194- Oh, and thank you for caring.
I hate the high school! I am in 8th grade, am taking freshman biology online, and took high school level geometry online last year. Now, they want to put me in freshman biology. “We are sorry. We do not know if her course covers all necessary material. We are also afraid that she will not be successful in the chemistry course, which is very math intensive.” Excuse me, my course generally counts for credit, and I’m just asking for placement. I’ve also pretested in to precalc, so I know the required math! Grrrrr!
(140) New Zealand!!!!!! I live there/here….I pity you really…cold, but no snow…just rain…unless your in Canterbury…which…is where my Great Uncle lives..I think…although I think Auckland or wellington…the main cities right? and why are you starting school in the middle of summer Vacation? maybe one day youll come to my little town ……………….. its so SUNNY!!!!! now…an hour ago it was pouring down
oh the joys….
well….enjoy!
also–does anyone ele have a 4 month old puppy with a broken leg in the middle of Summer Vacation…trust me…its TERRIBLE!!!!
197- La Mort, I know I care about you. And I’m sure plenty of other people here do. *hugs*
197-I care about you, I care about my MuseBlogger friends a lot. I know we might not seem like we’re real friends: we can’t give you hugs, or plan science projects together, or even blow up melons together, but we do the best we can.
I think you have purpose. You’re under twenty. Just because you haven’t found a purpose dosn’t mean that you haven’t got one.
If you have no aims, no goals, then dying would only achieve you one thing: making me cry.
YOU DO NOT WANT TO ACHEIVE THAT.
And plus, you have a spooky story to finish, and if you don’t, you’ll leave us all on a cliff hanger.
Oh, I can’t even imagine the torture!
197- Aw, La Mort! We care! *sends choklit*
Hello I am very hyper me has a writing test tommorow Jorge go bling-bling look on MTV in next thirty years to see him the computers at my school have no memory whatsoever unlike this this one, which is pretty good actually. *inhales* It is so windy here.
I have these really awesome valentines that morph, like flower into budders and fish into so many flowers AAARRRGGHH!!!!!!!
vALENTINE’S DAY IS GETTING TO ME
I have a awesome music solo. This is it- “Plants!” Poor Summer. ( Best friend) She has “Or a train!” Speaking of Summer, she can order her little brother to hit himself, kick himself, and pour water on his head. All discovered waiting for moms.
Who plays the clarinet? I do. I’m first chair.
La Mort: I know I haven’t talked to you as much as some other MBers, but if you were to die, it would be an unfillable hole in not only MuseBlog, but everyone’s lives.
Please give it some serious thought, how much of an impact you make on someones life, whether you know it or not. From smiling at someone in the store and making them fell that they are worth something, to stepping in to help a friend, you make a difference. Everyone does. For example, I hope that you wil read this and know that some kid who you’ve never met in real life cares enough to hope that you won’t hurt yourself.
I’ve had fleeting thoughts of suicide before, but really, it doesn’t help anyone. Instead of being a way to get out of a problem, it only makes it harder for everyone you leave behind, and doesn’t help whatever you were trying to escape in the first place.
As for a purpose, everyone has one. Maybe it hasn’t appeared to you in giant red block letters above your bed yet, and maybe it never will. But hey, this gives you a great excuse to go out on an adventure to find it. That might be your purpose too, who knows?
Just know, that whether people say it or not, you do have a place in this world, no matter how insignificant it might seem at times, and that no one can ever fill it for you.
I hope this helps some. *hugs*
198- if you dont mind me asking, what kind of cancer does your mom have? my mom had colon cancer a few years ago, and even though shes better, now, i still wont face the fact that she had cancer. i have kind of blocked it out. (i would be a psychaiatrists worst patient- i dont acknowlage thing that i dont like)
201- i start school on February 5th, but i am in my US home right now, which is why i am going over early. My town is a large university town, and is in the south island, and the weather isnt very bad. where we have a ski home, there is snow in the winter.
it is snowing out here in NJ (finally), and it is actually sticking!! too bad im not in school, because if it keeps up, there will be a snow day. well actually, i wont have school anyway, so whatever!
I need some hot soup right now. Mimi? MIMI! WHERE ARE YOU? Don’t leave me!
La Mort, please show up. Please. *hugs*
I’m here. I’ve been lurking for a couple of hours.
I just don’t know what to say right now.
210~ It snowed here today. (MD) A drippy, wet and gorgeous snow.
It snowed today here (IL) too. I’m actually a bit sick of the snow at the moment.
You’re not lonely. We care about you, La Mort.
209-Beautiful, MF, just beautiful… La Mort, Midnight Fiddler has said a good deal there, and it was quite sincere…
If this helps any, and I hope it will, I feel the same way. And I have talked to you more, whether it be being pied in the great pie wars or being pied elsewhere for something. Despite the countless crusty caloric confections catapulted towards me, I do regard you a good friend.
Red-tailed HAWK
Meh. My eyes hurt. I have absolutely no idea why.
On a really ramdom note, my art studio had a large package containg cupcakes delivered with a most amusing note, Happy Birthday (insert name here) – B. Franklin
My mom likes to do stuff like that. It was 12 cupcakes and there were only 3 of us, so I am understandably sugar high.
La Mort, suicide is one the the most selfish things you can possibly do. Think about what would happen to your friends and family if you killed yourself! It’s not fair to put them through something like that, so snap out of it! I know you don’t want to hear it, but your life could be a lot worse than it is right now.
141 – the Supreme Chairman strikes again!
212-I hope you’re still here. We all do care about you. Not only that, if you died, then many of us MBers would feel guilty and we’d take the burden. You don’t want us to do that, do you?
212-I’m just going to hope you keep showing up. *shudders* ARRRG DONT STOP POSTING! please?
*whimpers* please post, la mort?
212-You don’t have to say anything, just let us know that you’re here. We do care about you.
223-thanks, beav. I’m not sure I’m getting my message across. *is scared**curls up in corner*
oh! arrrg! why don’t I pay any attention to name chages? Traggle! no, please…
LA MORT!!! PLEASE COME POST!!!!!!!!
Red-tailed HAWK
it may seem silly that we’re all waiting here for one thing, but to us, it means all the world. pleas post…
La Mort, please post. You mean a lot to us, and it wouldn’t be the same without you.
WHOA! they chabged the pic?
who did zat? y?!?!?!?!?!?!
i like the world.
well, la mort. I’m gonna assume that you stopped posting for today, but you had better post tomorrow. Ugh, you’re making me feel like hurling, I really hope you post.
I didn’t know I actually meant that much to anyone
This really means a lot to me, guys, seeing all these posts.
All of you, you are seriously amazing.
This has really helped. I’m so grateful that I have you guys.
La Mort…..
dont be suicidal….indeed…I do not know if you could buy the pills without arousing suspicion and Im sure any thing else would hurt…besides….from what Ive seen (I admit thats not much) you are a primary MBer and my monthly check ups on the blog would be not the same…besides…you must come and see New Zealand before you die…nothing like a 40 metre bungee from a bridge into a river to lift the spirits….
but seriously…the sun will come out tomorrow *sings*
*all MBers block ears and make a hasty exit*
By the way, so you don’t have to worry, I can tell you that I’ll be signing off at 9:00 blog time, but I’ll be back on again tomorrow.
Sorry for double posting…I sort of read it properly through the second time
forgive me!
210:ditto…only I dont have a ski house…hmmmm… Ill go as far to say does your town start with [snip! Ahem. –Admin.]
208: I do I do! and I am 1st aswell….
does anyone play recorder professionally…or bagpipes or oboe? XD
Aw, La Mort, it’s okay. I know what you mean (though I’ve never actually *said* I wanted to die, I’ve wanted to say it but didn’t want to seem suicidal when I didn’t REALLY want to die), but things are certain to be better sometime soon.
Argh. I want to sleep. I don’t get enough sleep. Days need to be extended by three hours.
All sorts of fun things happened today, but I’m too tired to relate any of them…sorry… *falls asleep*
233 – *blocks ears even more after hearing Tomorrow too many times in the last month due to the fact that her school is performing Annie*
But seriously, La Mort, don’t be suicidal. You really do mean a lot to us. Something good must have happened recently, even something as small as getting a good grade on a homework assignment.
*gasp**faints*ahhh…good. La mort, you scared me so much. I’m glad you’ll be returning…yet, I won’t stop bugging you until you PROMISE that you won’t kill yourself, having the idea before that one of my friends was going to kill herself but didn’t is MUCH worse than having you tell us that you might die. too much stress..*collapses*
phew. I finally feel like I can relax…La mort, no matter what happens outside, you can always come back to MB for comfort, even if the outside treats you like trash(which I hope it doesn’t), we’ll be here to hug and welcome you.
I’m still awake, and hopefully my consumption of a few spoodfuls of Ben&Jerry’s New York Chocoloate Fudge Chunk will keep me awake enough to post the grand adventure that was my day.
Math was meh. I didn’t have time to do my homework so I mostly sat there feeling stupid and despairful and thinking that my grade was going to drop and I was never going to get a scholarship (gee, thanks, Mom. You really put the pressure on me last night), but I got an extension so it was all good.
Then I went to English which was much better, as English usually is, but still demoralizing because I got TWO VOCABULARY WORDS WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!! Which sounds petty but after math class I needed to excel, and I wasn’t. We read “The Cask of Amontillado”, which definitely lacked something, though it may have just been that my English teacher was reading it aloud. I saw pictures of the catacombs in Paris, decided I wanted to go there, and changed my mind by the end of the day. I need to work on both of my English projects.
Than I had PE, which was CURSED as usual. We had to run a mile in the frigid weather, and my skin was cold for ages, and I couldn’t breathe, and my head heart so badly by the end of the run that I couldn’t walk straight.
After school I hung out with K and M and E in the auditorium, and M and I (myself, that is) played dress-up with the costumes up in the “Rat’s Nest” (loft with props). And then I joined a battle between K and E.
The Salmon Bowl meeting was fun, even though my test score was MISERABLE.
I don’t have rehearsal tomorrow. And no school on Monday. *breathes sigh of relief*
so. i have returned, after my long absence. sorry, my computer is completely dead, and i am worknig on fixing it. but it has been a bit longer than that, so ummm yeah. but im back, and finals are over so yay for that!
Helloooooo Dark D o D. Great to see you. I was wondering what had become of you. I’ve got two blackberry pies here ready to fling in your general direction. Pies away!
Right now I’m grammar editing on wikipedia. It’s so cool how the changes appear right away. You look at it and go “OMG! That’s my comma! And it’s on the internet!
229 – once again, this is the random thread, NOT a pointless post thread.
235- it does start with [Sorry, guys. Rules. –Admin.]. Could it be possible that we live in the same town?
Yay!
La Mort is back! 
*does a little jig* *hugs*
Sings: The Sun’ll come out, tomorrow……”
197- Seriously, doing yourself in is a bad idea. There are dozens of people who care for you, and their lives would be horribly messed up if you ended yours. I have a friend whose brother committed suicide last year, and it’s still difficult for her. I’ve been in your place, more or less, and what stopped me, apart from the procedural issues, was the thought of everyone I love. I couldn’t destroy myself, because I’d really be destroying a part of them. I haven’t been on often enough to know you, but I do know that the loss of your continued existence would be a terrible waste.
I was going to post a celebratory message about completing 100 pages in my book, but this has sobered me up completely. I hope you make it through your dark time.
242-mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm blackberry.
243-heh. wikipedia is teh pwn.
HA- today is Winnie the Pooh day.
isnt that cool???
243- I’m responsible for several things on Wikipedia, especially for starting the “Quotes” section on the page about Colonel Flagg.
La Mort, you’re here!!
I would be very upset if you died. Especially if it was suicide. Because I know there are people who would love to be you. really. think about it- you’re healthy right? That alone should be good enough. A girl at my school was just diagnosed with leukemia. And I bet she would give anything to be someone else, even if that someone else was not having a good day/week ect.
Wikipedia… hmm. I don’t know. I haven’t really trusted it since my friend was doing research on polar bears and it said something like, “In the wild, polar bears eat mainly humans and penguins.”
I am going to be gone for several days…At the Cabin Fever Expo in Pennsylvania. My father speaks first and I’ll be wearing the stand back I’m going to try science shirt.
whats every one talking about?
This is probably against some rules, but consider the images of Mercury at nasa.gov a gift from me, La Mort.
[That one we’ll allow. –Admin.]
233-Suicidal pills are so twentyith century.
241-Yer back! *welcome back deep dish pies*
I think the whole suicide thing is rubbing off on me. I need a hug, and fast. I’m TWELVE and having thoughts of suicide. THIS IS PATHETIC. *mentally bangs head on desk*
And you guys are the only people I trust to say this to.
249) Awesomeness!
254) *gives hug*
231- you do touch us all. i don’t want you to die. i like you too much.
241- w00t! *does a happy dance* *pies for welcome*
255- *hugs* please please please don’t killl your self beavo. i think part of me would die too. one of the things i always remember is that time goes on, memories fade, pain grows less intense and big deals shrink with age. it reminds me when i do something stupid that other people will forget far sooner than i will and that whats going on isn’t the end. *hugs*
Aw La Mort I hope you feel better.
Beavo too.
*hugs both*
Meh. I’m getting all confessiony now.
I used to be self-harming.
I feel great now and love my life more than I ever had.
I can’t give anyone else advice about how to overcome it because I don’t even know how I did.
All I know is that the last things I wanted to hear were that it would be ok or how sad people would be if I was gone.
Whenever someone told me they would be sad if I was gone it would make me feel worse because I felt like I was letting them down by not being able to want to stay.
I don’t know what will help any of you who are struggling, but I hope you can get help somehow.
232~ “All of you are seriously amazing.” As are you, we might point out.
Beavo, after reading all this, how can you possibly be having suicidal thoughts? It’s really a bad idea, I think we all agree on that.
Oh yeah I remembered another thing I want to say that might help.
Suicide is not selfish or weak. Suicide happens when the pain you have overcomes your strength for dealing with pain. It doesn’t mean you’re weird or that anything is wrong with you.
There is no such thing as not being serious about suicide. Some people will say that something isn’t a good reason but it only applies to that one person. What some people can tolerate is extremely painful for others. For people who have never thought of suicide it might look selfish, but to some of them they believe that they are helping by becoming less of a burden.
I’m not trying to say that suicide is ok, but nobody should feel ashamed. It isn’t their fault or anyone else’s.
255- Dude! Did you not read my long paragraph? That wasn’t intended just for La Mort, it was intended for everyone who’s considering suicide! I’ve been there, and though it may seem like it’ll never end, it will. Trust me. Put on some comfy clothing, get some tea, and watch a fun movie. That always helps.
254- Thanks, GAPAs.

[You’re welcome. But note that spaces have been added to delinkify it. –Admin.]
So I’m at the IL state robotics competition right now, waiting for the robot design interview. This is probably the only time I have to post tonight.
Hello hello!!!! I’ve come to break up your lovely little suicide discussion with the cheerfulness that is induced by eating ice cream!
. . .
Actually now that I’m no longer feeling like screaming or breaking down in tears I don’t have much to say. How pathetic.
Ohyes! I finally discovered the use of little sisters!
Okay, so, before I begin my story you need a bit of background information. E lives 2 blocks away, she rides my bus, goes to my school, she’s the only other girl in the Salmon Bowl, etc. We’ve spoken about three times. She’s always too shy to start a conversation, and I’M always too shy to start a conversation, so we just don’t talk to each other.
Today I was going to the store to get some spaghetti sauce, and who should I meet but my sister and her friend, who dragged me forcibly to E’s house and didn’t let me come out.
So after a few minutes of awkward laughter, E took me through her back door and we made a long detour, came back to her house – and were once again captured. This time they took us to my house, and tied us up with scarves. Eventually we escaped and Opal and C led E away. I went out to get that spaghetti sauce, and wound up back at home, so I left again and this time I got the spaghetti sauce and got to talk with E.
So that kind of broke the ice. It was fun.
Don’t worry, I’m not going to kill myself. I have you guys to talk me out of it, and I’ve never gotten that close yet.
259-It’s not today specifically that I’ve been having them, although emo did cross my mind a couple of times. What I’ve concluded is this: I’m unpopular, getting grades that I hate myself for, and my close friends are fewer than I need. And then when I have the slightest thought about self-harm, I get so mad at myself for having those thoughts that it crosses my mind even more. It’s that vicious cycle thing.
I don’t even know why. I have two parents that love me. We’re doing financially great. It’s so stupid!
261-Fun movie? You kidding me? Not in my house you don’t. A fun movie in my house is some opera in Itallian. If I could get Juno or Night at the Museum or even Taledega Nights I would, but I can’t, so I don’t.
If my mom followed through with her threats and took me to a shrink, I’m worried that they’ll diagnose me with something like depression which will make me MORE depressed.
I’M TWELVE. I SHOULD NOT BE DEPRESSED.
Which makes me even depresseder.
And I just need a hug, a real one, not a virtual one, that would last a long long long time.
Have you guys ever just curled up and cried? I’ve been doing that increasingly over the last year. And everybody’s like “Beev, you used to be all happy, and now you’re, like, emo, minus all the skulls.”
About a month ago, I found myself scratching at my arm (the top, not the bottom) absentimindedly with scissors. I was so surprised, I dropped the scissors. Can I be depressed and not know it? Can I be WANTING to be emo?
Have I finally lost it?
265- Awww. I sort of know what you mean, though. I want hugs, chocolate, and my comfort perfume to actually comfort me, which it doesn’t. So yeah.
I wonder if it’s something about January that’s making people all depressed. I’ve felt totally bipolar all week. Hopefully this coming week will be better.

Now I know. Next time I start considering suicide, just remember these names, and the people behind the names.
I’m feeling better today, thanks to you guys and my Music Theory class (we had donuts and had a jam session this morning).
*hugs Beavo* You can’t WANT to be emo. There are some things that you can’t decide to do. One of those things is being depressed. Trust me. I’ve been depressed for years, going back and forth between almost-happiness and extreme depression. There was even a few months last year when I thought I was bipolar. You can’t WANT to be these things. I’ve felt most of what you’re describing at some point. It helps to just find people who you know you can trust, and talk to them. That’s pretty clear from the past few days.
*hugs everyone who has helped me* Once again, you guys are some of the best people I have ever met. You have stopped me from going too far into the abyss, and I will seriously be grateful for this for a long time.
262- Ooh, pretty space pictures. You know, I’m absolutely fascinated with space.
265-Curled up and cried? Ohyes. The other day, for whatever reason, my parents reminded me that I had to go to soccer in an hour. I nodded, and then when I went to the next room I just broke down crying for no apparent reason. Don’t worry…-hugs-
-hugs La Mort and all other people too-
247- Congratulations on finishing 100 pages in your book.
270- Thank you. Just to make it clear, it’s not a book I’m reading. That would be sad and pathetic. I was all excited about it, but when I read about your plight, it suddenly seemed trivial and unimportant, and compared to someone’s life, it is, quite. Never underestimate the value of your life.
Although it still is pretty cool that I’ve reached 100 pages. The main character, a dude named Estrello, has just been in a conference of vetala, which are spirits that inhabit corpses. I think it’s going very well. I just revealed a major plot twist, too.
Thanks you guys. La Mort, I’m so glad that you’re feeling better. Maybe I should consider Music Theory classes and doughnuts.
It was so beautiful outside my house yesterday, with all the snow. My front yard and driveway seemed like some enchanted castle, minus the castle. Maybe an enchanted cottage is more like it. And as I was trudging through the snow after getting off the bus, I stepped in ALL the puddles. ALL OF THEM.
And today it melted. It was like losing a magic. Maybe that’s why my “depression” was coming out today. We’ll see tomorrow.
I hate not being able to share this with my closest friends, other than the MuseBloggers. You guys are pretty much all I have plus a few kids on my same popularity ranking level. But I can’t talk to them about it, not even my best friend. They all think I have a great life at home, that I’m always bouncy. They probably wouldn’t even recognize me today. And I have to put on the mask every time I go somewhere other than my room. I’m so tired of wearing it.
I should stop ranting. You guys don’t want to hear this. It’s a Friday and I’m making it gloomy. *shuts up*
I’m tired.
Again.
Ugh.
*sleeps*
Today I was thinking about how much I’ve changed, and how much my life has changed, and I feel sort of like I’m . . . losing touch, maybe. I want to see my best friend of two and a half years ago, even though we’ve probably grown so far apart that I’m not sure we’d still be friends of we were in the same school. I want to have a jolly time like I did when I was eleven, and I can’t, because I’m not eleven, and my life isn’t anything like it was when I was eleven, and I sort of wish it was.
271- That sounds like a really cool book. I want to read it.
Since it’s almost midnight here in New Hampshire, I think I should head off to bed now.
There was a bit of a joke in my group of friends about Elmo. Elmo emo. I drew this stupid picture of in rapper clothes sayingm ” Yo,yo,yo,I’m ELMO EMO!!!” Really quite lame, now that I think of it.
272- Welcome to the Laughing Skulls Club. That’s a term I came up with because nobody really appreciated how good of an actor I was. A while ago, I was at a very low point, but everybody thought I was the happiest guy in the school. You, Beavo, must be a great actor. But seriously, I hope you can make it through so that the mask becomes the reality.
274- You can read an excerpt in the Scary Stories thread from Hallow’een 2007, post 30. That’s one of the creepier portions, so I put it in the thread. It’s not all like that, seriously.
https://musefanpage.com/blog/?p=1081
276) Laughing Skulls Club…I like that.
@the whole suicide thing: my friend M has been chronically depressed and fashion-deprived (though I’m not sure that has anything to do with it) since the third grade. She didn’t have any friends until she came to my school and me, S, and J made friends with her and got her a tiny bit out of her rut. But she still has thoughts of suicide and I’ve seen her hurt herself and she says she’s taking medications but as far as I can tell they don’t work. So Beavo and La Mort, be glad this is passing. And also, you guys rock! I don’t know what the blog would do without you.
Also, I’ve never been depressed in my life. I think all my peppiness and my sunny disposition counter any bad thoughts I have. :D?
Okay. Sorry for the recent sporadicity so here’s a really long post.
GAAHHH stupid Simpsons Game! My brother has horrible hand-eye coordination and bad reading and Internet skillz so he’s forcing me to play his favorite Wii game FOR him. And it’s addicting, so even when I want to go off and read a book I have to play it. DURRRR. This is why I want a laptop! Well, only nine more months until my birthday! And, speaking of laptops, have any of you heard about the MacBook Air? Ohmygod pwnage, that’s what it is. Totally. Though since it doesn’t have a disk drive I might have to pass. I just figured out the magic of Bluetooth and now I am uploading all the photos off my phone and onto my computer. My dad scrounged out a Bluetooth dongle for me (love that word, “dongle”) and I jacked it in and I was set! Now I have like a million pics of stray cats to photoshop to my heart’s content. Yay cats! Another thing, my cat crawled into my bed this morning and just started purring. Awww… And the P and L keys on my keyboard are sticking which makes me think that i need to stick it in the dishwasher.
End of Kiki’s longest post. TADA!
278- I wouldn’t worry about the lack of a disk drive. My laptop, the one I’m using right now, has no disk drive. Unless you want to play games on your laptop, and that would have to be a powerful laptop for the games out today, then you don’t need one. All it takes to get things onto your laptop is desktop computer and a USB flashdrive. You get the application (or photo, or music file, or whatever it is) onto the desktop, load it onto the flashdrive, and from there load it onto your laptop. Problem solved.
(265) Beavo, a diagnosis — if and when it’s correct — can actually be liberating. For a start, it can be the difference between catching the stalker out in the open versus constantly looking over your shoulder wondering what’s lurking behind the bushes. In case it’s useful — I wrote a little about my own experiences with depression on Hot Topics 2006.5.
It’s also important to remember that depression is part of life’s repertoire of responses and comes in many forms, not all of them clinical.
La Mort and Beavo, since many MBers have spoken so well and so movingly on this subject, I will add only that everyone’s darkness is unique, but I empathize very much with what you’ve been going through. I do know what it is like to try to look into the future and see nothing but endless empty space. And I also know what it’s like to see color reemerge.
Now that some decades of that future have become the past and I’m living in a present I would not have expected, I can testify the years between have been anything but blank! I won’t pretend the days have always been bright, but there has always been at least something that made it worth sticking around. And one thing I certainly couldn’t see back then through the gloom was the gift of knowing all of you.
Agreed. I can’t predict the future, but there’s one thing I can absolutely guarantee: there will be times, many of them, when you’ll say to yourself, “Gosh, I’m glad I was around to see that!” — or do that, or experience that, or meet that person. It’s hard to imagine when you’re wrestling with Dementors, but it’s as true as anything I know.
Tomorrow we get a new random thread! *breathes sigh of relief*
im sorry, i think i posted somewhere else under the alias “lovesick fool” maybe romance and relationships…… sorry anyway
I have a huge bruise on my forehead…
Basically, last night, my brother was trying to tell me about some Yugioh card or other while I was trying to get to sleep. I really didn’t want to listen, so I put my fingers in my ears and sang, which really annoyed him, so he climbed onto my couch+mattress+pillow bed and started kicking me. Now…I don’t really feel pain too much. With a little brother and me playing soccer and stuff, I’ve kind of gotten used to it, and it often makes me laugh instead of cry. So I was laughing and he was freaking out, and then I got bored of letting him kick me so I got up and dragged him off my bed. Then he started trying to talk again, so I started throwing these tiny squishy basketball things that were lying around (they were sort of like hacky sacks in terms of size and weight, but they were squishy) at him. He freaked out again, and started coming after me. I held him off, but it was still getting annoying. Anyways, I had to go to the bathroom so I stood up and started walking past his couch/loft bed to get to the doorway. But he thought I was trying to retrieve the balls I’d thrown, so he stopped me from going that way and pushed me back to the couch. I tried to block him with a pillow, but he kept throwing the balls at me (some of them were still squishy, others were plastic). One of the plastic ones hit my jawbone and hurt it pretty bad, so I threw that same plastic one back at him and it hit him pretty hard on the shoulder. Then he really freaked out and grabbed the pillow from me and threw me to the floor. He sat on my back and started banging my head into the concrete floor. I started screaming “Stop, stop!”, but he wouldn’t. After a couple more seconds, though, he got off and ran to tell day, saying “Dad, dad! Meow (not my real name) is hurt!” as though he hadn’t been the one that hurt me…Dad came running in, but I was already getting up, since, while it hurt, I didn’t want him to see me hurt or giving my brother the pleasure of knowing I was hurt. I got up, went back to my bed, and was crying there. I think Dad gave my brother a “talking to”, but other than that, he didn’t get in trouble at all. This morning I woke up and had an obvious bruise the size of a quarter on the right part of my forehead. Luckily I can hide it under my hair and today’s Saturday so I don’t have to go to school.
But it sort of worries me. What if next time he won’t stop, or he breaks my arm or something? His temper’s really out of control sometimes…sort of like mine was a couple of years ago, but I was never this bad…it’s scary.
184-
I hate my sister. She started complaining about how I ate all the bread, and she lost her money, and then she decided that I’d stole it so she was going to search my room, and she tore the house up, and pulled my hair, and screamed at me, and I yelled at her, and she’s throwing pillows at me, and lying on the floor throwing a temper tantrum, and Mother’s at work so I don’t have an ally. I HATE HER I HATE HER I HATE HER I HATE HER I HATE HER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And it’s not even as though the house is empty of food. There are plenty of carbohydrates (that’s all she eats) but she doesn’t want to make rice or noodles or potatoes. What did I do to deserve a little sister?
285-:( -hugs- I’ll be your ally.
-runs across the state to help Alice-
286- Thanks. I’ll be yours.
I’m feeling much better today, partly because of you guys and partly because I slept pretty well, which isn’t normal for me.
276-Actually, I’ve wanted to be an actor for a while now.
280-Ron said that maybe finding out that I was clinically depressed would make me feel better. But I still hold the hope that I’m not, and I think if I found out that I was, it would make it worse.
284-Maybe I was wrong, being an only child is a good deal.
Hope your bruise gets un-bruisy. I hate bruises.
285-To be sure, you don’t deserve a little sister like that. *runs across continent to help Alice and Cat’s Meow*
288- If you had a sibling anything like mine, you would probably end up very seriously considering suicide. I think about emancipation instead.
Now that she’s upstairs and being relatively quiet I’m feeling a bit better. But I really don’t want to know what she’s doing up there. I’m afraid she’s in my room…
287 – ^_^ Thanks.
288, response to 284 – Yeah, sometimes having siblings is great, but sometimes it’s horrible.
288, response to 284 – Thanks to you too. ^_^
This random thread is more like a support group than a random thread.
268- You’re welcome. Nobody has seen new pictures of Mercury in 33 years, and I’m so happy to find another kid who appreciates it!
One girl I know thought the planet Venus was in another galaxy!
The Chairman shall rally to the defense of his friends! You lot just say the word, and I will unleash an onslaught of epic proportions to help you!
292- *bows elegantly* My thanks.
297-We shall be forever in your debt, oh Ultimate Supreme Executive Chairman Grant O. -bows-
265~ I know what you mean about curling up and crying. Sometimes for no reason at all. Trust me, I’ve been there. One day I wasn’t exactly happy, but I had no idea how upset I really was. I had just gotten home from a disappointing visit to one of my favorite people in the world [who was suffering depression at the time] and when I slipped and fel on a patch of ice I just started bawling. No real reason, I didn’t even hurt myself falling–I just really had to get it all out.
There’s nothing wrong of shameful in crying, just so long as you don’t miss out on all the beautiful things in life or isolate yourself. Keeping it all in is NOT HEALTHY.
Hey, an idea here, maybe some time we could meet at the Spy Musieum in Washington, I think I remember that you enjoy it, right? Just a thought, but give it some thought….
267~ Thanks. We love you so much, don’t ever forget that. I was literally shaking the past few times I checked this thread, I was so worried. I’m really glad you’re doing better.
*hugs La Mort back as hard as I possibly can*
292~ I think this thread has shown that we’ll all go to great lengths to help each other out. It’s a good feeling, really, to know that you’ve got a communnity of pie flinging lunatics at your back to help you through any difficulty.
Uhh, I don’t think I have anything else to say at the present moment. *Hugs all other musers* [includes GAPAs]
295 – I know. At least I know that no matter how icky things get in real life I’ve always got my friends online, whether it’s on here or somewhere else. ^_^
295- Spy Museum? *googles*
I wish there was a way to tell which MBers and GAPAs were online at a time.
298- Me too.
295-I adore the Spy Museum. We were gonna go there for the eighth grade field trip, but the GT teacher decided not to. *grumbles*
If anyone else wants to go, I sense a kokonvention coming on…
Well, I know both of you are on righ now….usually I just keep refreshing the page and watch the recent comments bar. But even then you can’t tell if someone is lurking.
On another forum I frequent you can tell who’s on. Hmm….Robert? Are you still changing the MB stuff?
301 – Yeah, but sometimes it’s nice to know anyways.
Same here, with the other forum. But the problem with that on MB is that we don’t really have accounts that could be listed.
When I tried to log in under my wordpress account, I failed. Miserably.
303 – What do you mean?
Well, if you want people to know you’re lurking, then just post!
I just went and returned the neighbor’s dog to them.
Hahaha, it was great. So, I return, panting, cold and with muddy, wet cuffs.
It was interesting, running along after Molly [the dog] down the hill and arriving, out of breath, in naught but corderoy pants and a shirt (a HPB one too, so they’ll have plenty to talk about over dinner) in the middle of January. Oh, with the remaining snow on the ground as well. the looks on the relatives faces [my aunt, uncle and two cousins are our neighbors] were halarious.
305 – Don’t point out the obvious.
Just kidding.
304- I have a WordPress account. Usually when I’m logged in, IK can tell. On MuseBlog, though, nothing happened.
I wish I lived near some MBers. I live in Ohio and my town is one of the least friendly places for people like us. I can’t wait until I can drive so I can go to Cleveland more. I love the science museum there but I go less and less often every year. I think I’m at the point where I’ve gone a whole year without visiting a science museum. I haven’t been to the Akron one since I was very young, but I remember it having places where you could build things. I have a car I made out of a block of wood from there.
I wish I lived with my friend Molly. She lives in a different part of Ohio, or maybe it’s PA. Anyway her town sounds really neat because her friends accept pretty much anything.
I wish more people my age would see that it’s ok to be smart.
300~ Whoops, I didn’t see your comment there…Yes, the Spy Musieum is really fun. I went there once, and we only get about halfway through, even though we took 5 hours or so. There is so much stuff there, it’s really fabulous.
I was thinking Kokonventions, yes. We know you could go, I could talk my parents into it, since we were planning to go again sometime, and possibly R-t H? Maybe it would work… *ponders and schemes*
300- PLease forgive but but I’m not sure where that is…. is it in Washington DC? oooooohhhh we are going there for a class trip in February!!!!!!!
285- What did I do to deserve a manipulative little sister and a monkey-see-monkey-do brother?
308 – Oh, that makes sense.
309 – I wish I lived near MBers too. There are probably less than 5 MBers on the whole West Coast…
Well, it feels like that.
267-yeah, that’s actually comforting for me. (then again, why wouldn’t it be). for each of those days, I was afraid that I’d log on, then have to go tell C++D or ag that you killed yourself*shudders* I’ve decided to get off the subject
298-that’s what I was thinking! but then we’d have to log on, and have a password, and everything.
309- I live in Ohio as well [geographic details snipped –Admin]. What do you mean by “people like you?” Liberal? The town right next to me is pretty conservative, I can tell you. They even gerrymandered the area so that a Catholic school isn’t part of their town and a black community goes to our school rather than theirs. That’s why their school is called “********* Exempted Schools,” whereas ours is called “******* Local School District.”
Spy Museum Comments- The Spy Museum is awesome. Seriously. It’s one of the best museums I’ve ever been in.
GAPAs, what do you think? Possible kokonvention at the marvelous Spy Museum?
312- Well… We could kokonvene during Spring break or something.
314-ooh. that would be cool.
‘Twould be fun…no? A neat musieum, food friends, who could ask for anything more?
315-ohhhh. noooooo. waaaaah. my class is going to DC over spring break, with a schedule, maybe we are going to the spy museum. it’s be really cool to walk by with my class and yell, “gimanator!” heh. hee. …
Ah, drat my typos…”good friends” not food. I sound like a cannible!
318-I can see the scene now: “Hey, Mrs. ___, I see a whole bunch of people that I’ve never met in my life, who are wacky and weird, one is a self-procalimed online stalker, and when I get over there they’re probably gonna pie me. So can I get over there to say hi?”
The cafe’s not so bad either…
315 – That would be really fun, actually…
My brother’s going on a school trip with at least one of my parents the week after that, though, so that wouldn’t be good.
You live in western Washington, right?
Sorry for the double post. 321 wasn’t up when I posted.
321 – That would be so awesome…:P
A group from my school is going to DC the week after school ends. I’m probably not going, though.
Yeah, and I can just see a bunch of Musers storming through the exhibits, saying mysterious things about pies and something called “Mostly Harmless”…
“I wonder how we could implement this into the Kokonspiracy.”
“I dunno, hey, look at this–maybe we could modfy that to throw Well, we could change this part here, and put in something there…”
Sounds dangerous to me.
Wow, that’s weird. 323 and 324 went through before 322 did. Most likely some GAPA was checking to make sure it was all right to say western Washington.
See you all next time I come on to the blog.
I’ll bring up the subject of Kokonventions to the parental units too….. Also, are there any GAPA opinions on the Kokonvention possibilities? I wasn’t thinking to start another huge event….
326 – They like them, as far as I know.
ooh, the spy museum is excellent. As far as DC locations (I’m sure Robert’s heard of some of these) I also like this one Chinese restaurant in Chinatown whose name I don’t remember but would be easy enough to find. It has a little window thing that sort of juts out where someone is usually making noodles. That and a used clothing store called The Mustard Seed. And there is Politics and Prose bookstore also. Speaking of bookstores, Elliot Bay book company in Seattle is amazing. And I’ve never been inside Powell’s in Portland but I’ve ordered offline from them before.
Alright. End of random ‘awesome places in cities that I live nowhere near’ rant.
315- possibly around, say, the 29th of February?
321- I can wear a shirt that says “Greekgurl” on it if you want….
We were going to go to the Spy Museum before we left DC in August, for the Kokonvention, but we didn’t end up going. The story is actually pretty interesting — my mom, THF and I were standing outside the museum trying to decide whether we wanted to go or not, then a really loud alarm came from the building and people started rushing out, and fire trucks came and such. It was either a false alarm or a small fire.
330 – Yeah, I’d say your desision sort of was made for you.
314- Pretty much everyone here is a religious fanatic, drug user, or nerd hater. Those few who are intelligent have never heard of Muse.
I’ve become obsessive about finding MBers lately. I look for HPBs everywhere. There was an easter setup at JoAnn’s today and I wanted to raid all the pink bunny things on it,but we were there for flower pots and I ended up getting some valentine stickers to add to the ones I’m making for my friends. I think I’ll make a MB valentine and scan into the computer.
How did those MB signature things get on the Musery page? Are they going to make a new one sometime?
I think I’m going to get some Musery stuff soon. Next time I remember while I’m at my dad’s I’ll ask him.
332 – We sent signatures in and then they put them on a shirt.
Oh, and you’re right. We should do a new signature one this time. -puppy dog eyes-
(332) Unintended Pun, you can email your signature to us anytime. We haven’t yet set a date for the next edition.
332- I always look for Musers too. I’ve only found one though. And she didn’t come on the blog like I asked her to.
332, 335 – I’ve never found a Muser in real life. I don’t think so, at least. One of my real life friends who reads my Muses occasionally came here once…but then left after a post or two.
So many posts today.
La Mort had a comparatively good day today. She went ice skating with her friend and only fell twice. And then, since La Mort is officially fifteen and a half, she convinced her dad to let her drive (well, just in the school parking lot).
Yes, La Mort feels like talking in third person right now.
Grant, would you like to be the basis of a character in my book?
The Prologue and Chapter 1 is on the Books in Progress thread, if you want to read it.
There’s no way I can make it to Washington, but maybe you can visit the Air and Space Museum. That place is wild!
377 – Cat’s Meow thinks third person is fun. Once upon a time Cat’s Meow and her online friends (on another website) decided to only talk in third person. Sadly, the other people on the website did not like third person, so they made Cat’s Meow and her friends stop. However, Cat’s Meow still talks in third person in real life often, and it is practically a habit in some cases, which annoys Cat’s Meow’s parents.
Gimanator reminds both La mort and Cat’s meow that MB had a third person day, but that it is not a restriction, but oh well, and then he begins to talk in the third person, also.
340 – Cat’s Meow declares that she is pretty sure she wasn’t on for that day. However, she is sorry she missed it.
La Mort declares that she will make any day third person day if she wants to
We’ve had a few Talk in Third Person Days. The most recent ones were in February 2006 and September 2007. They didn’t get special threads; most of the third-person posting was on the monthly random threads.
IBCF thinks that we need a new random thread.
The stern but kindly Administrator advises the young grasshopper to have patience.
343- Ye gods, the September Splash thread. Not something I like revisiting.
Wow. So many posts!!! Sorry for so long of an absence (probably over two days, which is scary for me
) The snow kept me busy in my spare time, whether it be making my three-headed snowman or the snow fort. And then defending the fort against five other kids in the neighborhood 
Summary:
I’m glad people are feeling better. Now I can feel better knowing everyone is relatively happy *Sigh of relief*
Annoying siblings-wow, that does sound bad. Sorry! *Sends Zemtee armored pie tanks to help out*
Kokonvention: Aha! That sounds fun. And the spy museum is perfect for our plot
Do the GAPAs want to get involved, as some form of safety precaution, or do they want to still breathe from the past two? For planning the specific date and such maybe we should decide on either reviving an old kokonvention thread or making a new one…but we would probably be able to come, if a date that we aren’t already busy is chosen, obviously…
Red-tailed HAWK
I just reread FS’s farewell post, and it still pisses me off. And strangely, for a second, made me almost cry.
If it takes place in Washington, I would definitely like to be involved. I’ll start a new thread.
349- *is an impatient grasshopper* Finally!
332 – I know what you mean about looking for Musers. I had to resist the urge to ask every team I met at the robotics competition if any of them read Muse. I was even going to bring an issue of Muse, but I forgot. Actually, a mixture of being nervous and being exhausted suppressed my urge. But with 11,000 teams in the world, there has to be another Muser in robotics. By the way, my team won precisely nothing.
337- Sure, knock yourself out. I like being referenced in other people’s literature, it makes me feel important. If at all possible, I’d like to be a vampire, but not Eastern European. If you want background information on my appearance, personality, etc, that can be supplied.
Beavo enjoys scaring his friends with speaking in third person.
Beavo has just aquired AIM.
Beavo is content with life at the present moment because Beavo is in ZEN state.
352- Oooh! You just gave me some great ideas. Appearance and personality descriptions would be nice.
Appearance and personality descriptions would also be nice from Alice and POSOC, who are also being used for main characters.
348-sorry, i havent been around, but who are you? you sound like someone who changed their name.
352-why not eastern european? eastern europeans are excellent.
355- At the time, I was Traggle
Unintended Pun likes to speak in third person. She is currently experiencing what some would call “insomia”. Unintended Pun is happy that the others are feeling better, and she wishes she could give all the MBers real hugs.
I made a HPB shirt today. It’s light purple and has a HPB on the back center. On the front there are 2 smaller ones on the bottom left side. I’ll send pictures sometime. I’m going to buy some stuff from Musery soon, so don’t think I’m being cheap and cheating the mag.
I want to go to a Kokonvention. Maybe there could be one at the science museum in Cleveland sometime.
355- I don’t want to walk around saying crap like “Ve must find ze nuclear wessels” and “I just spat borscht on Vladek.” I also don’t want to be pale as all hell with a pronounced widow’s peak. I prefer northwestern European, viz. England, Spain, places like that. Not France. I have nothing against the French, but I wouldn’t want to live there, as I’m not a fan of cheese.
357- And that is a good idea. Cleveland is convenient for me. Do you mean the Great Lakes Science Center?
Homework is causing me great pain. I wish I didn’t have to do it.
I am putting off going to bed. Good night.
ooh, cleveland! i could go to that
ZOMMMG too many posts!
Ski trip in an hour!! Up to Wisconsin where we shall frolic in the man-made snow. Hooray for synagogue youth groups!
dot dot dot
@Kokonventions: I could make Chicago and very possibly Cleveland. And Detroit. And Minnesota if it’s in the summer.
It’s tupping cold over here. Fifteen degrees Fahrenheit. I tell you what, I was outside just now taking the trash to the bin, and within five seconds, all of the warmth had been leeched away by the bitter, biting cold.
359-Yes!
I’m so cold! It’s going to be 2 degrees tonight. Meh.
333- You mean like, signature for emails? Cause i have some pretty clever ones…
338- We’re going there.
Greekgurls very special announcement of the day:
Our school has an essay contest for when we go to Washington DC. The prize is for 4 people and it’s very special. One of the days we are there we are going to go visit the tomb of the unknown solider and during the changing of the gaurds, those 4 people will get to place a wreath on the tomb. I (being a true muser) am going to enter but the reason im telling all of you this is because im wondering, if i post my essay (excluding my last name, of course) would i get constructive critizism for my fellow Musers? I’m also looking for facts about the tomb to include in my essay….
If im allowed to post it, which thread would i go to GAPAs?
363- hee hee tupping! Have you read Othello? however it is colder here. It has been lurking around zero or negative temperatures. Fifteen isn’t that cold. Try NEGATIVE fifteen!
i have almost finished packing, and looking at my almost empty room makes me feel depressed, and i hate being in my room right now
So remember Post 308 on the last thread about how I was probably getting to go across the state for a math competition? Well, I can’t. So boo. The worst part is how my mom told me…well, she didn’t. She just let me figure it out for myself. I mean, it was all still up in the air, but she gave me no reason to think that I wouldn’t get to go at all. And then she just shuts up. So then I find out that it’s this Saturday and since she’s already talking about what I’m doing on Saturday, I’m clearly not going. Thanks for letting me down gently, mom. -.-
366- Yes, I have, in AP English IV this year. So I know exactly what that means.
358- Don’t worry, none of the vampires in my story are going to be like that. Except for the pale as hell part. The vampires in my book are mainly inspired by Anne Rice, not based on the Eastern European stereotypical vampire. Appearance and personality descriptions would be nice.
365- I went there the last time I was in Washington!
Some facts:
The soldiers interned in the tomb are from WWI, WWII and the Korean War.
There was a soldier from Vietnam also, but he was identified and reburried.
Across the “road” from the tomb is the memorial to the crew of the Space Shuttle Columbia.
328~ YESYESYES!!! I love that restaurant! I think it’s called China Express, or something like that, but I’m probably wrong…It’s pretty greasy there, but the food is really good. *drools*
363~ Today- highs in the upper 20s, windy, so significant windchill. It’s 15 now. Brrr…..
As for finding pther Musers– I usually just try to wear musery shirts when I go in public. The only other Musers I know in person are the ones I’ve met at Kokonventions.
I promise though, if I ever see anyone else wearing a musery shirt, reading Muse, or displaying any museish tendancies, I will go and talk to them.
370- I was actually thinking recently that a vampire might be able to function in society by claiming affliction of a rare blood disease that requires frequent transfusions. I’m about to go watch Foyle’s War with my parents, so I can’t do the details right now.
I think we should make a pact on the site that if any of us ever see someone reading Muse or wearing a Musery shirt we have to talk to them. I would be sad if someone on here saw me wear a Musery shirt and didn’t talk to me.
I think I’m about to get my actual Musery shirt. I ended up getting to my dad’s today and I’m waiting for him to order the stuff.
I have nothing to say, but I’m going to say something anyway.
Beavo’s new obsession: OutKast.
374 – I solemnly swear upon my honor as ruler of Taruva, First Something Or Other of the Amphritite, and Frequent Writer in several RRRs that if I ever see somebody reading Muse, wearing a Musery shirt, or carrying a Musery item I will talk to them.
Or, alternatively:
On my honor, I will try:
To serve Muse and my fellow MuseBloggers
To be Mostly Harmless at all times
And to live by the MuseBlog law
1 spzdk point (I have 4, they’re just not in my name) to the first person to identify what the second one is a parody of.
376- I’m guessing either Boy Scouts or Girl Scouts….
376- Girl scouts!
377, 378 – Hmmmmmmm…I am going to award La Mort half a spdzk point and Alice 1 spzdk point, because she officially got it right. So now I’m down to 2 1/2.
Yay. I have a spdzk point. *thinks* What to do with it…
Who wants a spdzk point? I’ll give this to the next person who says they want one (I really don’t see the point of spdzk points…)
I want one! *dances up and down*
380 – I’ll take it, just so that I can say I have one.
…what are spdzk pts?… oh well, doesn’t matter… mine!
371- When was it officially opened?
380 – Ooh, pick me! Just kidding.
Ooh! Ooh! I just got 10 spdzk points in the spdzkville lottery! And now I shall ask a question and you shall answer it!
In which Harry Potter book did Ron call Harry, but it turned out horribly? -Note: not in movie-
You get 1 spdzk point.
380- I have researched *cough* that if you get 100 spdzk points you get a muse cracker. Hooray!
Oh dear. So many people want spdzk points…
I’ll divide it between Faye and Beavo, since I don’t think either of them have spdzk points right now.
Faye, you now have 1/2 a spdzk point.
Beavo, you also have 1/2 a spdzk point.
Goo bye
I think I just sent the MB valentine. Is the e-mail here gapa @ musefanpage.com? That’s what I sent it to.
385, 385 – I don’t think it works that way. Are you new?
Unintended Pun (389) –
You’ve got the GAPA email right.
Four smiling GAPAs thank you!
385- There are only 100 real spdzk points in existence. All others are imitations.
The next three people who ask for them get 10 spdzk points each.
Yay! A 1/2 spdzk point! *clapclapclapclap*
385, 386- There are only 100 spdzk points in existence, and no new ones can be created. Sorry.
I had 2 spdzk points once upon a time, but I gave them to Shadowkat.
And that is my spdzk point story.
Ok, Foyle’s War is over. I’m about 5’8″, brown hair, brown eyes. Photographs of me can be seen in a thread called “When They’re Not on the Blog.” My description of my personality is probably a bit biased, but here it is: I read quite a bit, I like to think that I’m rather sophisticated, I’m easygoing and laid-back, I sometimes have trouble controlling my temper, I’m sensitive to certain things that rile me up more than others because I’ve had them done to me my whole life by my brother, I collect foreign coins, I believe that silver can help protect against the malignant influence of evil spirits, I’m intelligent by all available evidence. That’s all I can think of at the moment; I’m rather tired.
392-Oooh I want spdzk points!!!
391- Yes! I sent the Valentine. You should make a valentine thread. Not everyones’ names are on there, but it’s for the entire MB, including the newbies who come after it.
I love making valentines. This is the first year I actually have the supplies and time though.
396- That’s perfect. I’ll try to post chapter 2 by the end of the week. I’m not going to tell you exactly what role you’ll play in the story yet.
392- I want (more) spdzk points!
*triple post*
POSOC and Alice, I also would like descriptions from you, since you’re also main characters in my book.
397 – That’s a good idea! We should each make a MB valentine and scan it in and e-mail it to the GAPAs. Or if you don’t have a scanner you can just describe it and we’ll imagine it.
I have a half spdzk points, and I’ll give my half to La Mort to make her points even only if she’ll give that whole spdzk point back so I can have a full point. *haggles*
400- There’s one on the Muse Fanfic thread.
We should have a “Point Trading Post” thread where people with spdzk, Pie, KAG, and Julia is Better than You points can trade, buy, sell, and give away their points.
*takes ten spdzk points from POSOC*
*takes half a spdzk point from Beavo*
*gives a whole spdzk point to Beavo*
400-
Appearance: You basically summed it up already in your story.
Personality: Talkative, cheerful, and enthusiastic when among the right people, but quiet, fading-into-the-background when she’s not. Contrary to what is evidenced by at least two of her many Museica alter egos, she does have good judgment and a sense of caution. She tries to be constantly polite, and is very uncomfortable if other people aren’t.
390- NO I AM NOT NEW I STARTED IN NOVEMBER!!!!
*puff,puff*
Do I have spdzk points?
Lalalalalalalalala Insomniaaaaa!!!!!!!!!
I need to sleep more at night.
I can’t because I think too much at night.
Is the blog in US eastern time?
Thank you, La Mort! *spdzk points pie*
I have really bad sleeping problems. Yes, I do.
And I’m gonna watch a movie with my BDFs tomarrow.
BDF=Best Doll Friend. Doll=Female.
409- As long as its fun…..
Sorry for the double post but i have a question for Veralidaine:
Did you get your name from the Tamora Pierce character? If not, then okay, if so: she rocks, good choice.
405- What the devil are spdzk points? What are they used for? Do I have any?
The Golden Compass is a great book! I’m reading The Subtle Knife right now and my sister finished The Amber Spyglass (all are in the trilogy His Dark Materials) yeah so anyway PEACE AND PIES FOR EVERYONE!!!!!
ThE weIRdO iN tHE PolKAdOt tOp hAT
407 – Oh, sorry.
See, I take lots of breaks from MuseBlog so I probably just haven’t gotten to know you.
411 – Yeah, I just noticed that a couple days ago.
412 – They’re just points. They don’t really have a purpose except to be traded and bartered for services.
My god, I love this CD I got at Borders yesterday. Highlights from Gilbert and Sullivan’s HMS Pinafore. (They didn’t have the full version.)
Does anyone want to make a cameo in my upcoming book, the one I’ll write after I’m finished with the one I’m writing right now? Please note that while you may be included as a member of a conference, you may also be mauled by a mysterious creature.
415 – I was going to volunteer until that last sentence.
I’ll get back to you on that one.
412- They are imaginary points, of which there are only 100 in the multiverse. All others are imitations. You can have some if you want. Mine are up for grabs at the moment.
416- Hey, it’s not all bad! At least you’ll be famous! You could be *consults notes* a human government official who’s killed in Westminster, a prostitute killed in Knightsbridge whose organs are stolen, a member of the conference, a Ganesh (my book takes place in a world in which there are non-human races) judge whose tusks are removed, or someone who I haven’t invented yet. You could also be a victim of the fake monster, but that would involve getting groped and nearly being scared to death.
415- Okay. I’ll be mauled by a mysterious creature. It can’t be much worse than being stabbed in the chest by Gimanator.
Yay my dad ordered me Musery things!
I’m getting the Koko for Pres. shirt with red sleeves, 10 HPB buttons, and 10 Mostly Harmless buttons.
Beavo-BDF is pretty neat. Do you like beavers? I always want to call you Beaver.
418- I’d rather not be the second one, thanks. Really.
421- Why, because of the organs thing or the prostitute thing?
I say, when is the due date for the signatures to be sent in? I’d rather like mine to appear.
(423) USECGO, there isn’t a due date at the moment, but feel free to go ahead and send yours in. We’re collecting them in ongoing fashion in the hopes we won’t miss anyone who’d like to be in the next one.
422- The prostitute thing. I’m very squeamish.
I’ll be any character anyone wants me to be. Seriously.
It would be so cool if all the MBers moved and lived in a little town in the mountains together. We could be an art community and just do neat art and science stuff instead of normal human stuff.
The government would probably call us a dangerous cult and blow us up.
Hello, goodbye!
427- Posts on this board generally have a point, if only to tell an anecdote. That one, Mr. Bananas, was completely and utterly useless.
415 – ooh, I volunteer to be mauled by mysterious creature / member of the conference / prostitute / whatever..
in your book, that is. not in real life.
I would like to make a cameo appearance. I would especially enjoy being the Ganesh.
423,424- *is confuzzled*
426- That would be sweet…
*fantasizes*
I have bunnies in my back yard.
429- If you’ll just hold still a moment…
Ah ha ha ha ha.
431-If you go to musefanpage.com, not the blog, nd click on the Muse t-shirts thing there’s one called Museblog signatures where everyone writes their blogname and they put it on shirts and notebooks and things.
I just made a very lovely signature, although it isn’t handmade…
I am having great fun with photoshop…valentines and signatures and the like.
434- TISB put her signature on some of the early ones.
Ok now I”m confuseld.
I’m going to send my signature later when I go to my mom’s.
I hate my science class right now because it’s just a bunch of math that I don’t get. I have homework from it and we have to find the acceleration of different things, and we also have to find the other bits like velocity and time, which is worse.
I’d much rather be making valentines right now.
(434) There’s a link on the blog, too. On the main page, second link from the bottom of the list: Musery Loves Company.
436- You’re a Freshman? We did that earlier in the year too. Ugh. But it seems to be over. Now we just have to write endless field and lab reports.
415- I’ll volunteer to be a member of the conference.
426- Or, if we invent enough useful stuff, they might make us the go-to guys for any science related matters of national importance.
438- Yeah. I’m in honors physical science. We have to use sinificant figures and all this crazy stuff.
I like my teacher though, so that’s good.
At least we’re done with chemistry and ions. I hated those even more.
I’ll volunteer for whatever you may have left Grant. And if I end up mauled or attacked by a monster/not-monster just make it interesting somehow.
*not squeamish*
I hate my chem teacher. Maybe if he would stop bragging himself and his children for the first fifteen minutes of every class we’d actually be able to get the experiments we do do done. He also says the reason we don’t do many experiments and they’re all boring is “Well, if we use chemicals in here then they might get on the table and floor and then get on your stuff.” We can’t even use the logical solution of leaving our backpacks in a bin by the door. *stops before rant takes over thread*
Anyway, finals. I wish I had time to read this thread, I need something light/refreshing to do amidst the hours of rewriting notes. I have been doing so for around… five and a half hours so far today. And I still need to do one more section in math, decide what to put on the notecard we’re allowed to bring into the math final, 6 more sections of chemistry, try to understand the difference between the preterite/imperfect in Spanish and go over all the year’s vocab, and then start on the 100 pages (litterally, the binder is now thicker than the textbook) of Sports Med powerpoint notes that I have to make sure I have memorized.
Oh, and then somehow I volunteered to play at the doors for the 8th graders/parents when they come take their tour of the HS so I have to find time to practice with Sarah. Crap.
So, should I ditch lunch tomorrow and practice flute, or stay in and study/ask Kathy to teach me dimensional analysis? I only went to lunch once last week, the rest of the time I was in the band room because I don’t have time to play flute at home anymore. This is what comes of letting mom sign me up for that second hockey team, though. Away all weekend and left to cram. *dies*
Sme things I wanted to mention from just a quick skim of the thead plus the last 20 or so posts-
Thank you people who responded to my post about Luna.
La Mort, I care you’re here. It makes me sad when people leave for whatever reason, and when they’re feeling depressed and stuff it’s worse because we don’t know if they’re getting better or not. I’ve felt like that before, actually earlier this week where I was extremely stressed and depressed and even crying during school and at home, and that mixes with apathy about everything. Life sucks a lot. But sometimes it doesn’t, too.
So that was basically everything I haven’t been able to post for weeks. Apolls for length.
440- I’m in integrated science. But I do quite well.
441- Jadestone!!! Long time no see!
Actually… wait. Not a terribly long time. Just a long time since I saw you on the random thread, I guess. Hmm. Bu then, at that point I didn’t have any internet, so…
*trails off*
44- Yeah, I haven’t been posting much. I had a bad week and have been really, really, busy and as usually like to read everything on a thread before I post. I haven’t been on this one much, there’s rather a lot I have yet to read. I think my last one before these was in the 160’s, so… yeah. I’ve mostly been lurking for a while now, suppose I am turning into one of those -one-post-a-week oldies. *pies*
Today I was at Barnes&Noble looking for chemistry help book. I picked up “The Cartoon Guide to Chemistry” without thinking about it at all, but then was Larry Gonick’s name! Hahaha. I had no idea he went to MIT DDDD: THAT’S INSANEEEE
XD He was credited to Muse on the back too. It’s the Kokonspiracy hurhur
similarly, “Chemistry for the totally confused” is v. helpful. More like chemistry for the clinically insane but that’s okay.
Alice- I do ok in my class, mostly because of completion of homework grades. If nothing else, I can complete homework.
I wish it were summer right now. It’s so cold and boring here.
We are getting report cards in a couple weeks. January 25th is the end of the 1st semester. I can’t believe it’s already been 1/2 the school year. It seems like just yesterday I was lost on the way to my locker. I hope the rest of high school goes this fast.
Cloverfield.
Was.
Amazing.
OMG it was! There were explosions and guts and bleeding and violence and GIANT MONSTERS and death and more explosions and AMAZINGNESS!!
If you aren’t planning to see it you’re sissies.
448- Sounds delightful.
415~ Oh yes, that sounds like great fun, being mauled by a mysterious creature.
Just out of curiosity, will you use the MBer’s blog name, or will you just loosly base a charicter on their personality as you know it?
424~ I’ll do it as soon as we figure out how to use the scanner we got. But I will get one in…eventually.
415–*voulenteers*
420-Actually, Beavo the Great was a cartoon character I came up with in fifth grade. I can send in a picture of him if y’all want…
448-Personally, I don’t consider having the symbol of our country- the Statue of Liberty- rolling down the streets of NYC great entertainment. And plus I’m one of the sissiest guys you will ever meet (or not, but still).
415- It would be cool if I made a cameo appearance in your next book. Actually, it would be kind of cool if I was the prostitute. Or if I got to kill people.
419-…
448-ummm….ya know some people just don’t like the idea of killing? I for one could not kill somebody if I was going to be killed myself. Uggggghhhhh. yet books and movies that aren’t based on real life(star trek, LOTR, whatever) i won’t mind.
453- What? You did stab me in the chest, remember? Or did you? No, you just cut me open with a golf club. My bad. Don’t worry, I don’t hold it against you or anything.
454 – This is on a roleplay thing, right?
455- The pie war, yeah. If it actually happened in real life, I’d probably hold it against him.
456 – Juuuuust checking. o.o
457-yeah, that probably would sound strange to an innocent bystander….
453 through 457~
That was halarious to read.
I don’t usually enjoy movies with tons of violence and killing in them. Yes, go ahead and call me a sissy.
452- You don’t get to kill people, I’m afraid.
451- If suspense films that tell you nothing, even at the end, with bad camerawork because they were too lazy to produce it properly aren’t your thing, don’t call yourself a sissy. Personally, I’ve only seen one horror flick, and it was one of the worst movies I ever saw. I was cracking up more than I was scared. Of course, the film was the new “When A Stranger Calls,” so whatever.
453- If it was me or someone else, I would be able to kill someone. Actually, I’ve probably come pretty close to killing people. There was this one time I nearly strangled someone because they wouldn’t let me sleep. The Chairman needs his sleep, dammit!
“Thanks to Rebecca for the lovely Muse signature card and good wishes. It’s great to have a MuseBlog cheering section.”
–Pan & THF’s mom
460~ We’ll remember that. [Note to self, never wake up the Chairman.]
458~ It did.
(461) We’re certainly all cheering for your mom, Purple Panda, but Robert is the one who sent the card.
