I am having a Fat day. The kind where you can't go five minutes without thinking, 'My God I'm so fat' and wanting to puke up all your excess pounds. Or, failing that, hide away in some secluded place where no one, especially not yourself, will ever have to look at your fat. I hate feeling this way. I know I'm not excessively huge, but I'm hardly thin -- and certainly not what society finds acceptable -- but I try not to dwell on it, and think positively; I have a very cute face after all, which is something alot of people don't have. So I should be happy. Right? Well, not today. Definitely not. *sighs wearily*

And continuing with the whingy theme...I have discovered a new Pet Peeve. Does anyone else get extremely irritated when someone replies to a post you made, but never talks to you, just to some other random person, even though you have far more interesting things to say about the subject than the random person? At the moment I am thinking about a certain post I made in a community, where other people went on talking about things *I* love without listening to my comments, but I am hoping that the only reason I am so annoyed is because I am extremely defensive about my Neil Gaiman obsession/worship (I try not to pull a 'holier than thou' attitude with Tori, because I know that far too many Toriphiles think they're the only ones who 'really understand' and love her, but it's just so difficult with Neil. I've been in love with him since 1989, and unfortunately I do rather think I know just about everything there is to know about him. I bow to

ragdoll's wisdom of course, because she actually KNOWS him, but as devoted fans go, I think I'm pretty high up there :) and I feel slighted and a bit hurt that I, with the superior knowledge and heartpounding love, am being ignored. Although of course I'd probably be annoyed anyway, as I hate being ignored. More than anything else in the world. So maybe you should just ignore that last rant. *G*

Bleaugh.

The woman who inspired the delightful Babar books died yesterday. She told the stories to her children, who in turn told their father and he wrote them down. I loved Babar when I was little, and I still do. I hope that children nowadays are still exposed to these wonderful books.

God, this is a depressing entry. Is anyone actually still reading this drivel?

*swoops in and goes to snuggle your otter*

*follows on her daemon's heels and envelopes Nevvie in a snuggly hug*

*squeeeeeeezes softly and rests her head on your shoulder*

Le sigh.

*nuzzles you with his nose and purrs contentedly*

I am still reading this drivel, er charismatic, insightful and entertaining post! I love your mood icon, of course!!! How do you do mood icons??

And Babar the Elephant - aw. Was that French? I used to like the clothes they wore :)

My mood theme is 'Hobbit Boys', I can send it to you if you want. I really want a new one, as this one has far too much Elijiah (sorry Trinny ;-), but I can't remember how to install it now. *grins sheepishly*

Babar was indeed French -- he was turned into a perfect french gentleman by The Old Lady (who loved him very much) and he then went back to Africa to civilize his friends. But in a good way. *G* I absolutely adored the Babar books when I was growing up, they were always so gently humourous and full of great kindess. Great stuff. :)

I had a Fat Day that lasted all of last week - those things are terrible. So is being ignored.

Hope things get better....*hugs and hobbits*

Yeah, my fat days usually last entire years. But I try not to think about them -- sometimes though they have an annoying habit of pouncing on you and proclaiming your fatness for all to see. *groan*

Mmmm hobbits. :) *hugggles*

I'm reading your drivel! I like your drivel! You drivel good. Talking of Neil Gaiman, I was thinking about American Gods today at work... that book did have quite a strange effect on me.

You just carry on listening to the other great Neil - he always makes me feel better. :)

Neil's are good for the soul. :)

*smoooch*

Aww, honey (started to type homey -- eep! Adrien is infecting my brain! ....wait a minute...) -- you know I love you more than those silly ol' folks anyhow! *pounce!GLOMP*

What's that a spoiler pic for? I'm all intrigued and junk :)

Supposedly it's the treasure trove of goodies at Isengard, but I think that's just fan speculation. It's a bloody cute picture, whatever it is. :)

*snuggles you and sighs happily* I'd rather be your homey than anything else in the world. :)

*hugggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggs to all that*

Yes, I am still reading this - extremely well-written and interesting post.

Have you ever read "The Beauty Myth" by Naomi Wolf, by the way? I've just finished reading it. It's very, very good. And I think you might find it helpful.

You're *gorgeous*. And Nick says to say that he says so too. :) And society is a twit if it says otherwise.

You are a Neil Gaiman queen, and no pretenders will be allowed. :)

When are you going to come and see us?

*hugs and love*

Ellyyyyy

You and Nick are far too good to me. But of course that doesn't mean you should stop. :)

I have heard of The Beauty Myth, but never actually read it. I've seen Naomi Wolf in several documentaries though, so I almost feel like I have. *G*

I would like to come visit next week, if that's allright with you? Maybe around Wednesday?

*hugs and hobbity kisses*

Do, do! It's very good. I don't agree with absolutely every word of it, but the gist and the spirit of it - and a great deal of the detail too - makes a lot of sense, and is kind of inspiring and scary at the same time...

I would like to come visit next week, if that's allright with you? Maybe around Wednesday?

Wednesday would be fabby. Hurrah! Shall we have an IM chat about it soon and sort out the details?

*hugs, kisses and nekkid!Billeh!*

"Is anyone actually still reading this drivel?"
I am! i kinda phased out through the bit about Neil Gaiman. Just between me and you, i think Neil might do well sometime soon, i've just got that gut feeling that one of his stories might be good ;P
Barbar was good, i can't remember if i was read the books, read them myself or simply saw the cartoons on TV.

Fat day, well i think everybody gets them, or at least a day similar. I'm a bit overweight (or out of shape), though only slighty but still feel like that some days.
*hugs* you sound like you need one.

Actually, i kinda feel like i comment on the posts but haven't talked to you, will have to say hello sometime :)

I don't even know you, but can I strangle you?

Please?

I knew i should have put the sarcasm disclaimer on my post...

♥!

more than, like, anything. you're the best-- and painfully adorable, mentally and personality-wise as well as physically, and if you were here right now i'd give you a greeeeeeeeat big hug [at least -leers-].

Hee. Am 'painfully adorable'. Go me! *beams happily*

Oh Jori, you make me feel so happy. *pouncekisses* :)

I've gained, like, a metric tonne since coming home last fall. Seriously. I can't fit in the jeans I wore all summer *utter shame* but I am going to join the gym soon, and I plan to have a very busy summer so I won't be sitting playing on my computer all summer.

And seriously, if you want to be cheered up, you have to find the song Goliath by Melanie Doane. I've been listening to it over and over, and it's just so awesome and uplifiting. Or I could be completely crazy. You never know with me. ;-)

No matter what you look like (and I'm quite sure you're just as perfect as ever) you'll always be the spiffiest, most funtastic person I've ever had the privledge to know. *squeeeze*

I like it when you're crazy. It means that I'm the sane one. *grins*

And don't worry about how you feel too much. you always look unbelievably cute and squishable. Looking back at my piccies from London, I can't believe how cute you look.

*SQUEEEEEEEEEE*

I almost forgot! I have to show you this spifferific item! I know there are a few days left on it, but I so hope I win!

Well take turns being crazy and sane. ;)

That is the CUTEST top I have ever seen! I want it! Are there more? Soooooooooooooooo cute! *squees like a rabid fangirl* :D

there are some really super cute kitty shirts on ebay right now. One of the best is a hoodie from hot topic.

OMG! Kitty's in fishnets!!!! I so want that, but by the time I convert to Canadian, I just don't think that I can afford it. Though it is wickedly cool!

BTW, that seller has a ton of nice stuff from Hot Topic and Torrid for really decent prices.

Cheers!

That Kitty is so devious. Bwahahahaha. ;-)

Although I seriously doubt that Sanrio (and everyone at KittyWorld in Tokyo) would approve of their beloved icon giving people the finger. *sniggers*

No, I am not reading this drivel.

'Cos it not drivel.

Beautiful, icon, my dear *smooch*

*cuddles up and feels the love of your verysillypants* :)

I think you're lovely. *smooch* So there.

And of course we're all still here. Did you really think we'd leave?

*many hugs, because you need/deserve them*

Ahhh you're so good to me Ash. *squeezes tight*

I do sometimes worry than unhappy entries will make people roll their eyes and not want to know me anymore. But that's just paranoid lil' me. *grins sheepishly*

Yes, well, you're a freak, because we're not going anywhere. *hugs* besides, would you run away because any of us posted unhappy entries? Of course not! So why would we do something so scuzzy to you? Have faith, lovely. =)

You're beautiful, Nevvie! *hugs*

*squee*

Thank you Miss Kia! *smoooches happily*

*snuggles* Of COURSE I am still reading. I'm not going anywhere.

Yayyyyyyyyyy. :)

*pounceglomps*

*HUGS*

Dearheart. I love you.

But surely SURELY you can't be serious getting peeved over people talking amongst themselves in your comments. We do it to

trianne every day!!

*is floored*

lol - I think you mean something else, I just don't know what it is.

Love love love (and you're not fat!!)

>We do it to trianne every day!!

*laughs* I know, we're terrible. :)
But this is different -- we'd never willfully ignore Trinny, especially if she has something important/interesting to say. But I know of course I am overreacting. What with my bad selfesteem day and all, can you really blame me?

*hugs and kisses*

*lick* :D

"Is anyone actually still reading this drivel?"

Yes, yes we do read and it's not drivel! I hope you are feeling better ;) I know it is hard feeling ignored sometimes, but then you might find out that it's really not true at all! (at least that is what I try to tell myself)

*squishes*

Thank you Miss Evie. *smoooooch* :)

You really need to hang around more often. Stop hiding away! *tugs on your sleeve*

I swear, this wasn't here yesterday! A couple of posts above yours in my friends list were there, but not yours. Weird! Anyway, of course I read anything you write! I love you! I try to keep up with my rather few friends in both good and bad times of their lives. There's nothing I can say that I haven't said before, so I'll just keep reminding you that you're a sweet, pretty, funny and intelligent person. The world is full of people who are being misunderstood, ignored and victims of predjudice of all kinds. I know it's painful but unfortunately society/mankind does suck in many ways. I know I can never take this piece of advice myself, but try to look at what you have instead of what you don't have! You have many friends, some of whom you even meet IRL, you have many interests and people to share them with. And you live in a place where interesting people come for conventions and stuff.

It was a private entry before, but I made it public because I was feeling more generous. *G*

*hugs and kisses*

You're so lovely. :)

*hugs*

Any part of society that finds your size unacceptable should have its head examined.

And I agree that being ignored is horrible - you just want to say "hold on, what has that person got that I haven't?" particularly when they're praising the random person for something they did/said that you've done before, or better.

I notice this post is a couple of days old - hope you're feeling a bit better now, anyway.
