The nice lady at the ESA who didn't go strictly by checklist. Apparently the assessment scored me zero points but the decision maker lady actually read what I'd told them and decided that yes I really did qualify. Phew.
This video, but also the general idea behind this series of vids. All these cute little animations about the dos and don'ts of TF2. They're funny and they're well made and well intended and it's just so fuckin nice, yunno? Is real good.
The NaNoWriMo forum's "say something nice about the excerpt above you" thread is great for spamming the validation button (My aliens read as alien to at least two people yeeeeeee :DD)
My mum (entirely unironically, she honestly thought this was the thing you did) fucking FRAMED our first selfie together on her new phone. She went to the shop and got it printed out as a proper photo and now it's in a nice frame in our upstairs hallway. I can't fucking breathe it's so adorable. Total misunderstanding of selfie culture crossed with her old habits with photographs, I just XDDDDDD
For the past couple weeks, I've been talking to a very nice girl on tumblr. We have quite a bit in common, both good and bad, and I think she's very pretty and I think she's just adorable. I'm not sure how strong our mutual feelings are, but they're definitely there and we want to see where this goes. Today we were skyping and talking about our rooms, she told me she has stars on her ceiling. I've had stars on my ceiling, ever since we moved into this house they've been there. I can still picture the first night sleeping in my room, when we turned off the lights, there they were. Little plastic glow-in-the-dark stars and planets. I immediately ask her, what kind of stars they are, and she turns off the lights and shows me. Little plastic glow-in-the-dark stars. This has to mean something.
The shyest of shy cats not only has decided to sleep on my bed, but has graced me with cuddles I am Blessed unless she throws up in the middle of the night again in which case you'll see me back in the annoyance thread but shhhh only love now Eta: she moved to the floor to throw up I am worried but also she is So Precious. So Polite. Good cat, best friend.

I got a text from a friend who moved away telling me to let her know when I have a couple free days, because she'd love for me to visit her new place and could pick me up from a midway point. I'm pretty psyched at the prospect!
Got a phone call from my Nana saying she's closing a bond & wants to send me/siblings/cousins each part of it. I have no idea how much it'll be, I didn't ask, but possibly enough for me to afford that basic gaming rig that I was stressing about.
