...had, not has. Accursed typos that I spot far too late!

You're not obnoxious and annoying to us (citation: me) at the very least!

It's great to be enthusiastic and it sucks to have to wait for more harpy and the gang, but life has to come first for all of us. Alas!

And I'm thrilled that you're getting to create while we wait, even if it's under NDA!

Bread bowls are truly one of the greatest innovations in the history of humankind.

Also, the actor and actress just has ~chemistry~ together, even if they've both commented that they didn't know.

18 here! -flexes, immediately regrets it when shoulder protests-

I'm actually making good progress on writing today, after struggling the past couple of days!

Also, I woke up to a needy, affectionate cat. Which is always nice, even if he tends to try to mess with things while he's being sweet.

...I wish you'd said that ten minutes ago! Crap.

That or it's just more evidence that you're a fae cryptid that cannot be seen by modern technology.

Hope you get to feeling better swiftly and STAY THAT WAY for at least 10,000 years.

Yuuup.

Is your house finally infecting your parents' home?

What about combination fire and carbon monoxide alarms?

"I write for a blog/newspaper a few hours a week/put out a short story ever so often and live a high-end life with a multi-room apartment in a major US city."

I regret to inform you that, after owning this house for a decade, I've found zero snakes in my house. One on the front porch once, but that was the only one I've even seen on my property.

Oh gods, I had a similar experience. I was small and was tasked with holding a cooking book my mom thought my dad might like. Realized shortly after we left the store that I was still holding it, along with my bag. I was bawling and begging to go back before I got arrested.

Still haunted by that.

Congrats! So proud of and thrilled for you!
