so, uh, i just did something kinda stupid
today i had blood drawn for various tests and such relating to my possible bone marrow donation
they took about eight tubes worth of blood - i have no idea how much that is in normal units, but it is a pretty decent amount

“Why, for example, do the great writers use anticipation instead of surprise? Because surprise is merely an instrument of the unusual, whereas anticipation of a consequence enlarges our understanding of what is happening. Look at a point of land over which the sun is…
i’ve realized that a great many characters i love are sometimes warned for in fics they appear in

Oh no banana bread is the best
banana bread is pretty awesome
don’t make it too often, but it’s pretty tasty when i do
(mostly making it cuz we had some bananas going bad, and about all you can do with overripe bananas is make banana bread)
(also i wanted to bake)

i don’t know if i’ve ever believed in anything
definitely never believed in god, although i went to church for the majority of my life and i sang the nice songs, and not much of a believer in polytheistic religions either, for all that i say gods the majority of the time
dunno if i believed santa claus was ever real since i don’t have any earth shaking memory...

making fun of a fandom you’re not in is so stupid what if you replaced fandoms with other hobbies its like a bunch of scrapbookers are making fun of people for collecting stamps that’s exactly what you’re doing
What are you talking about scrapbooks are MEMORIES, stamps are just things you stick on letters. stamp collectors wouldn’t know a REAL hobby if it hit them...

you know those people who don’t ship the same things as you but they’re still so respectful and friendly to you and you’re still good friends despite it and you never get into petty arguments over your ships
it’s just like
