**1/11/13 - I know a lot of people were having trouble with broken picture links...hopefully I've resized everything enough to fix the problem!**OK, team.  I know it's been a while! For those of you who were kind enough to worry about me during Hurricane Sandy, Timber and I thank you! We are fine.  There wasn't even any damage to the bunker (which ( Read more... )

No way!? For real...? A crossbow is a deadly weapon?
I guess that's why I use one when I go deer hunting...

*I'm sorry, but my inner backwoods-hick Maine just facepalmed there for a moment... that was one of the dopiest comments I've read. Them city folk be funny (present company excluded, of course) XD*

I'm glad you had a great time (and star-struck a famous person). You look hawt...

And, I'm glad you doing good after Sandy.
There's this box outside my classroom, for food donations for Hurricane Sandy relief. Every time I walk by it, I think of you... and half-tempted to drop a bottle of vodka in it. You know, for "hurricane relief".

I don't think my school district would support that idea. :(

Hahahaha. That crossbow isn't even one of my real ones! It's a toy--it's plastic. I didn't want to risk bringing one of my three 50-lb pulls. I was sure I'd get arrested (if lucky; shot if unlucky).

I loooove the idea of "hurricane relief". It's so Girls With Slingshots. "I'm sick! Get me the Russian cough syrup from the 7-11!"

I figured it was fake... it way to slim.
The smallest one I've handled is a 28-lb one that rented when I went bow fishing, and even that sucker is bigger then the one you're sporting.

Funny enoguh, this is my whold family's idea of "hurrican relief"... man, that imported Scotish cough medication always works for me.

*grins delightedly* Oh man, soooo worth waiting for! You look gorgeous and fit, not fat, silly. Totally Scarlett, you must have freaked out the artists when they saw you. You look awesome in every snap, no wonder so many webzines picked you *nods firmly*

The cosplayers were amazing; I can scarcely imagine how much work went into their outfits. I only wish the pics of Snake Eyes and Peter Griffin posted properly (though Snake in a Box was very funny *^_^*)...and you remembered Durarara for me!

I'm also relieved to hear your sister saved those precious photo albums. Thank goodness she had the foresight to do that!

Thanks for sharing all this; it must have been a ton of work to get it all here, but it's really appreciated *hugs*

Maybe try refreshing the page? I can see all the pictures--LJ was being buggy again the whole time I was trying to do this entry, though. I almost can't blame it--it's image-heavy and some of the pictures are huge. I am not the best photographer--which is why I'm glad Shazz, my sister and Flint took almost all the pictures!

Stupid LJ...still not cooperating. I see a word description of what the pic is supposed to be, and it's a live link. I click on it and get your album but no pic, and when I try clicking on the word "original" I get a dark page: http://ic.pics.livejournal.com/firestar9mm/14566054/86584/86584_original.jpg (this is supposed to be "Gambit and Rogue 2.")

No need to apologise, though. The pictures look great (Shazzer is fabulous as a blonde; would she ever consider doing that?)...and yeah, Flint's twinkle comes right through the screen *^_^* Your sister looks really pretty too, btw.

*pouts* I want you to see them. It's probably your browser, because they're all coming in fine for me. I know they're big, but it must be a browser compatibility problem.

I asked Shazz if she would go blonde, and said she looked great, but she said she wouldn't. I think she looks good!

This is fantastic!

I grabbed that screencap from Larry Hama's Facebook comment thread for that "sweet arm candy" comment at the bottom; I honestly never noticed Hama's "daydreams" comment until you posted this and I looked at it again.

So awesome; every single pic, it's clear you're having an amazing time. Super fun to see.

Hi, Andy! :D Hahaha make no mistake, I was pleased as punch to be referred to as "sweet arm candy" XD Is it all right that I posted that here? It occurs to me belatedly I probably should have asked you first--I apologize if I was rude!

Not sure what the dog laws in NYC are, but...
If they would let me bring Cloe (my German Shepherd), we could go, with you, as Law & Order. :D

*She may look big and scary, but she such a well behaived sweetie... give her a peice of cheese, and she'll be your best friend forever. Shhh... don't tell Cobra that.*

I didn't see picture before (it was comming up as a broken image), but I also like the shot with you and "Shipwreck".

Well hopefully I have fixed everything so the images stop breaking! I don't know why Livejournal hates me.

Dude, that Law and Order idea is awesome.

This is very behind and I am super insensitive for speaking to/inquiring of you AFTER the Hurricane fiasco -_- Major fail on my part. But damn if you haven't been busy and gotten the superstar treatment!

When I get home (and have better wifi; the one here at work sucks ass) I'm gonna go through all these pictures you have up. From what I have been able to see, you, my dear, are just smashing in your getup! Congrats on getting the sexy exposure ;)

Well hopefully they'll be easier to see...I just resized everything so it's not quite so image heavy!

Hope all is well with you and yours : )

PS never feel insensitive--I know you've got your own personal hurricanes going on!
