Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

She's using the immersion approach, huh? Good luck.

Well, she's been studying English for a while, it's just she's never left China. She must be nervous: I certainly would be. It'll just be weird, because my sister's family is busy-busy-busy and highly verbal. I don't know how much time they'll have for her.

As it is, she'll have to take public transportation into the city for her classes, and won't that be fun the first few times.

All those damp pixels are kind of funky...

And it leaves streaks on the monitor.

I don't get a lot of it anyway, since I don't reciprocate.

Yeah, I don't get it terribly often, but it keeps happening, despite the fact that people seem to expect me to be a six foot tall terror in black leather, and I don't pepper my online conversation with hugs and pounces and smoochies.

But personal space bubbles don't really exist on the Internets.

There ought to be a personal space bubble emoticon!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

The first time I ever took public transportation (a bus) by myself, I was pretty nervous. I was a Junior in college.

Yes, I've been known to suffer from excessive anxiety.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Livejournal to sell?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

as long as they don't muck things up, a sale doesn't bother me, but I have bad memories of the sidewalk/citysearch merger and several others.

people changing my interface makes me grumpy.

oh. I forgot lunch.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Actually, LJ already did that, and I'm still grumpy about it.

Which change? It keeps switching me to the strange new thing (okay, five times, but that's five times more than I wanted), and once to someone else's journal entirely (he's now friended me, which is weird). But I seem to remember the standard interface being around for a while, even though it's no longer default.

yeah, for some reason that didn't bother me. It didn't change the way I used the place, so I didn't really notice much.

finicky.

Oh, that.

The posting window. I do like the newness, since it shows user and mood icons.
