wrinkles and joy

[flamingsword]

I have laugh lines. YOU GUYS: I HAVE LINES ON MY FACE FROM BEING HAPPY. Do you know what this means?

I've been playing striptease with my context lately, taking off this bit and that bit of my expectations, fanning myself with the contrast between the thoughts I have now and the ones I used to have. Before I was twenty I never expected to be happy for any extended length of time, certainly not long enough to get wrinkles from it. I like being clueless sometimes: it enables me to be continually amazed.

LAUGH LINES: THIS SHIT IS SO AWESOME!!!

Yay! Congrats on the laugh lines!

TYVM! I hope you have laugh lines, too! Laugh lines for everyone! Laugh lines and gingersnaps and epic fic shall be the order of the day, except for how that will have to wait for Wednesday, because today is apparently GREEN BEER DAY.

They are dying the river in Chicago RIGHT NOW, I bet. Happy St. Patrick's Day, Catholic and non-Catholic alike. :D

Uh. I think I meant dyeing the river (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Chicago_River_dyed_green,_focus_on_river.jpg). Yeah.

HEE! TYVM! I hope we all have them someday. We can chase whippersnappers around in our powered chairs together!

I have to work very hard to avoid laugh lines.

[flamingsword.livejournal.com]

Do you actually DO any of that work? You smile a lot.

Oh, yes. Every time I feel my cheeks hardening (usually several times a day), I spend a minute or two relaxing my face. I sometimes use facial exercises by Marcel Marceau.

That makes me so happy I could bite your hip ;)
Congrats sweetie. Now keep it up

*snicker*
Too bad it isn't what YOU say

[elucreh.livejournal.com]

You are my favorite person in the world

[flamingsword.livejournal.com]

YAAAAAY!! I am reading ONE person's journal before I go to bed early. You're it.

[elucreh.livejournal.com]

It's not very interesting today! I have no time to write because stupid papers; WHY did I think I needed an education again?

[flamingsword.livejournal.com]

So that people will PAY you to be awesome FOR THEM? I would totally pay you to sit around and be awesome if I had the cash.

HOLY SHIT!! That's what we need! We need bored wealthy people to hire us to go to schools and work with school systems to MAKE THEM MORE AWESOME. IT'S A PUBLIC SERVICE. WE MUST DO OUR DUTY. omg I need to shut up and go to bed, so tired I'm talking crazy.

[elucreh.livejournal.com]

BUT IT'S SUCH A GOOD PLAN.

Okay, but, srsly, go to bed. I can tell you're tired. *pets you*
