...and I get to sit back and watch artists make incredible work, right in my presence, at times. I have these incredible kids who do things like beadwork, sew, paint, animate, write, stream, do incredible things on the web, and game, and it blows me out of the water sometimes. Yes, gaming is art and creativity. It's world building and making your own plot, or it's learning the intricacies of a character and using them in a way only you can...it's epic. I can use that word, I'm old.

I'm up in the middle of the night with a stomach 'flu, likely food poisoning since it's been going on since Sunday, but there's a bright light to the midnight runs--you have no idea how many puns are a part of that phrase--the light from the bedroom where my youngest is putting together her NaNoWriMo winning novel (something I've never been able to accomplish in seven years) burning the candle at both ends AGAIN. (She does that...)

So I've been stopping in to see her from time to time. And hey, maybe it's 'flu after all. I think I gave it to her...send her a hug, okay?

Why the same song in less than two hours when you have such a collection to choose from? You profess to play songs from the 80s and newer, yet I hear Adele complaining we're not kids no more twice in two hours. *growls* and it's a double negative, so we're still kids.

Must be time to get some sleep...

Want to be cooking, cleaning, writing, drawing, gardening, reading...but no, energy level means I either sleep or find a fatigue potion, as I am plumb out of them.

So Goldshake is having a raffle! I was tagged for an extra entry--thanks, cookieskat! And it's really cool, because I love Pullets' art! I won't tag anyone, because I don't want to bother somebody, but yeah, it's a way to find art from artists you already like, and are likely to enjoy art similar to your own tastes.

And it looks like I'm entering in a timely manner, all because I am taking the day off and catching up on all sorts of accounts and found it pretty quickly in my Feedback. Yay!

Thirteen Questions Answered, Thirteen Things About Me, Thirteen Questions You--Yes, You--Should Answer

RULES
*I am bolding the ones I really believe you should follow. They are likely the only ones I followed...

1. You have to post these rules
2. Each person has to share 13 things about them
3. Answer the 13 questions asked to you and invent 13 questions the people you tag will have to answer.
4. Choose 13 people ((:
5. You have to legitimately tag 13 people.
6. You can't say you don't do tags.
7. Tag-backs are ALLOWED
8. YOU MUST MAKE A JOURNAL ENTRY. NO COMMENTS. Unless you're commenting about the actual entry.
9. You have to finish this within a week. If not, you'll have to do whatever the creator tells you to. Art, rp, etc.
10. Be creative with the title. No "I've Got Tagged" things.
11. Katterley added more rules because she thought there should be thirteen of them: keep it clean.
12. Tag the tagger so they know you posted in case they don't follow your journal.
13. Have fun!

1. Heaven or Hell?
Neither, I'm an earth girl forever

2. If you had to kill someone to survive would you do it ?
 Likely not...self-defense, maybe, but my reflexes are so slow it's unlikely anyway

3. Do you want to become a magical girl ?
 THAT would be fun--I'd like to have healing power.

4. Would you want to live in your fav. fandoms world or in the rl world ?
There are so many fave fandoms...but I do love my life and family and...I'd have to take everyone with me, anyway, so it's best I stay here.

5. Would you eat a bug or your last fav. food ?
 You drink bugs in grapefruit juice and some flavored drinks: Cochineal extract, carmine...so I'll go with bug so I can save my favorite food. I'll wash it and cook it first, however.

6. Do you need sleep ?
Yes. I used to go on about 4 and be okay, but now I like about 7 hours or so.

7. Tea or Coffee ?
Coffee is really good some mornings and sometimes with dessert, but I LOVE TEA.

8. Which 5 characters from a fandom would you choose to live with you ?
My kids, I'm fans of them. Otherwise, though, let's see...Hermoine Granger, maybe? Mercury from Sailor Moon? My Little Pony...The Powerpuff Girls are too destructive, my insurance rates would go through the roof...uh, Curiosity...hmm, better not... VIDEO and her mom Audio! Love Teelia's Mandatory series!

9. Pain or Suffer ?
Pain, I suppose, I do pretty good with that. Suffer if need be...

10. Pink or Red ?
PURPLE, but either, really, I love both...I'll go with pink.

11. Am i ANNOYING?
No. Thanks for tagging me!

12. Natural hair or colored ?
Colored hair, but a natural shade. Most of the time. I go burgundy sometimes, too, much like my fursona.

13. Do you want to build a snowman ?
No, but I'll bake you cookies and make hot cocoa while you do, then take your picture with it when you're done!

Thirteen Things About Me
1) I was born in Chicago. I've lived in three states in the US. I love to travel but seldom do.
2) I love to garden. It's the only time I love to get dirty.
3) I enjoy crocheting, but my cats love the yarn so much I almost never do.
4) I love to read. I love to write even more...
5) I had a three ring binder in high school that I would hand out to people-aka tag them- to answer questions from. It was called "The Qs". Before you read or answered any of them, you had to sign a form in the beginning that you would never use what you read against anyone. No one ever did. I was proud of that. I mean, it was high school. People from all four years participated. We did it my junior and senior year.
6) The meaning of life is love and love is life. Life and love are also chocolate.
7) I don't believe in ghosts but do believe in spirits.
8) I am learning to animate. I love to draw, but wish I was better at it...
9) I used to be a musician. I sang, played violin and viola, and went through a piano primer, but do not ever say I play piano--trust me on that.
10) I collaborated on the MAP project with Lady Teelia because...well, because it had a bunch of bad words in it that we don't say, but she and I thought it would be fun and hilarious to do it anyway. Almost every time I listen to it I make noises or even hold my face at the colourful language--but I did condone the video and my fursona *gasp* SWEARS.
11) I love to exercise, but don't do it enough.
12) I love to play video games, and have since the days of Dr. Mario and Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine--and reached 100% completion of Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion and finished Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, and the first part of Phantasy Star Online, but didn't play it online... I used to game on Neopets and Gaia Online--I actually fed four of my Neopets today, but I long ago started four other accounts just to rescue pets from the pound. I also used to play MMORPGs like Runescape, Dofus, Maplestory Online for a bit, and another one I can't remember the name of...they were so chibi and cute...
13) I have five cats, two dogs, and a bunch of chickens.

Okay, now thirteen questions for those I tag and anyone else that wants to answer, because I'm really nervous about tagging anyone...feel free to answer any of the ones I answered, too!

1) Do you have a favorite childhood memory? You don't have to share the whole memory, but if you want, tell me a bit about it!

2) Has your favorite colour ever changed?

3) Do you drive?

4) Legally?

5) How many piercings do you have? How many do you want?

6) Have you ever written a letter on paper and mailed it?

7) What is your favorite social media?

8) What is your favorite book or author?

9) Anime or manga?

10) Read or write?

11) Book or movie?

12) Chocolate or Strawberry?

13) Are you superstitious about 13 or anything else?
