no worries. I am just going over my lists and marking to do stuff off.
You know, it's funny. We went to war never looking to come back, but it's the real world I couldn't survive.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Topicy because of dogs:
I just got a holiday card picture of my nephew sitting on the front stoop in the snow with the dogs, a rottweiller-pitbull mix and an English mastif, which makes him look sooooo small.
He's bundled up in a snowsuit like the kid from A Christmas story with his little arms sticking straight out because he obviously can't put them down, and all you can see is his little eyes and nose peeking out from his hat and scarf.
He looks miserable. And so do the dogs. They all want back in the house.
SO CUTE.

So. Update. I just heard back from Disney and I didn't get in to the program.
Am sad now. I'm going to make some chicken soup and go back to bed. (I seem to have contracted the PLAGUE on the flight to NY.)
Thanks again to everyone for the kind words and support. Hopefully, I'll have better news in the new year.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
You rock nonetheless, Kristen. Don't lose sight of that. You achieved a boatload.
You might as well blame the plague on sarameg. One way or another.

Well, it's not the first boneheaded decision Disney's ever made. (I'm looking at you, Treasure Planet.) Here's hoping for only good news in the new year.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I'm sorry, Kristen. I know you're disappointed. But, I believe in your talent. In the longview this won't even be a speedbump in your career. I'm chuffed in advance that I knew you when.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I'm sorry that Disney can't see how awesome you are. It's obvious to everyone here.

I'm sorry Kristen. And what Tom said is true, you are awesome and talented.

I'm sorry, Kristen, but I'm really really impressed by what you did achieve and when you're ready, roll in those. And then go play in possible connections, because it seems you made some.
And if it will feel better, I'll even take responsibility for your plague. Feel free to hurl snotty insults my way.
And that's JUST an offer for Kristen.
