Jeez, that's long.

I know who Santos L. Halper is.

(Name Bart used, based on his dog, to get a credit card on the Simpsons)

THAC0 is a D&D term -- to hit armor class 0. Aren't you glad to know that?

Augh, why am I not sleeping?

... you bite in your sleep??

[trtle.livejournal.com]

I have, at times in the past, mocked someone else for liking something I thought was stupid, only to become obsessed with it myself

Buffy comes to mind ;)

And you like sushi because it isn't neccessarily raw fish...sashimi is raw fish (and BOTH are quite tasty!) :P

[archaica.livejournal.com]

Bite? In your sleep?


.....


that's .... unfortunate :)

[lietya.livejournal.com]

Hee.

I've done the weighing thing once or twice.... I was curious. (It *does* make a difference, or did for me, but not a huge one.)

[verbicide.livejournal.com]

I know, it's a monster, isn't it?

And AHHH I knew Santos L. Halper sounded familiar.

I am glad to know about THACO, through this meme I also finally looked up cosplay.

You are not sleeping because you are a nocturnal creature, like me?

[verbicide.livejournal.com]

I was thinking of Buffy, too :)

And *smirkity smirk smirk*

[verbicide.livejournal.com]

And oh. I only bit poor Ken when I was sleeping, and then he took away my Anne Rice books and it was fine.

There's no escape from the biting I do when I'm awake.

[verbicide.livejournal.com]

Well, I never drew blood...

[verbicide.livejournal.com]

It does! And it was more a science experiment than being fixated on the scale, for what it's worth. :)

[lietya.livejournal.com]

Yeah, me too - I *have* had my "fixated on the scale" periods, but I never figured that particular issue made much difference.

[greyaenigma.livejournal.com]

Oh, I forgot to mention (partly because I've been failing to update my journal) that I was innundated with cosplay over Labor Day weekend. I would have dressed up myself, but had no time and little inspiration.

In this case, I'm not sleeping because I'm an idiot -- I came home late from work and started up the computer, because I wanted to get stuff done before sleeping. But I also wnat sleep, so I can have some health. Such a dilemma.

[archaica.livejournal.com]

Well, that's good to know.

Just so long as it was during .... genuine sleep.

[greyaenigma.livejournal.com]

Could be an interesting experiment to see what would happen when your Ann rice books are in different stages of proximity as you sleep.

[verbicide.livejournal.com]

As opposed to? :)

[verbicide.livejournal.com]

Like, at ten feet, I just gnaw? :)

[archaica.livejournal.com]

Drawing blood in other circumstances ... well, not *necessarily* a bad thing :)

[verbicide.livejournal.com]

Ha!

[greyaenigma.livejournal.com]

Never gnaw until you try.

[verbicide.livejournal.com]

Bwahaha!
