I have a few random pictures cluttering up my desktop, so I shall intersperse them as I go...
I'm catching my plane tomorrow. An hour to London, then 13 hours to Singapore, then 7.5 hours to Sydney, then 3 hours to Auckland... I'll arrive in New Zealand a little before midday on Tuesday, mildly confused about whether or not I'm sleepy after spending a day in the air zipping across time zones.
Oh boy oh boy.
I'm not packed, either. I know what I'm bringing- roughly- but I'll leave the packing until tomorrow. I'm bringing A Dance of Dragons to read, and I've already looked up what movies will be playing on the plane. Movies that I haven't seen but want to include Battleship, Dark Shadows, Lockout, Get the Gringo, The Five-Year Engagement, and The Woman in Black, and I'll also get a chance to watch The Avengers again. That's roughly 16 hours of movies... I think I should be okay...
Today, I am cleaning the house. Laura will be staying here when I'm gone so I need to have everything nice and tidy, or else she'll throw a mug at me.
I fully intend to blog while I'm on tour. I know my publishers would like me to keep a Tour Blog, detailing how the events went and who I met and what the various cities were like- basically documenting the entire experience. Annnnnnnnd that's not gonna happen. When I get back to my hotel- usually at around 9 o'clock at night- I'm pretty much exhausted. But I'll do my best to keep my Minions appraised of developments.
I'll be gone for 17 days, during which time I'll be staying at 9 hotels and visiting 12 airports.
The temperature in New Zealand is ranging from 1 degree (celsius) at night to 14 during the day. This, my Minions, is a temperature I can deal with.
The temperature in Australia is ranging from 7 to 23. 23 is a tad high. Please Australia, cool down a bit before I get there. Just a few degrees. Say, five. Thank you.
I've got my Sky box ready to record my shows when I'm away. Right now I'm recording Criminal Minds, Newsroom, The Mentalist, and Supernatural. I was delighted beyond measure to realise that I'll be able to watch the Ronda Rousey fight live in my hotel room on my only day off- Sunday the 19th. Thanks to the time difference, I'll just be sitting down to room service lunch when she fights...
And that's it. That's all. I have a house to clean and time is running out. I also need to write up instructions for Laura on how to use the TV (it's more complicated than it sounds) when I'm gone. All you Minions-with-funny-accents, prepare yourselves. I am coming.

Not only are there physical scars, but also emotional scars too. They're just as important! My best friend had cancer and she said she was actually okay with it. She's not completely well, now, but she said it herself...'your more affected by this than me. You have to deal with the aftermath' and she understood how I felt when I was in hospital. My point is, the emotional scars we both carry are greater because if that. I still wake up in the night, sometimes, crying and whispering her name...I am proud of that, though. It shows I'm not just the person everyone sees. I can get through some of these things. I might cry a few times, get depressed or suicidal, but every songle scar I have reflects a part of me. Whether they're the scars from cutting, from hospital or from saving a life. They're part of what has made me who I am today.
The font thing was his fault :P
Dont be sad he'll have a kind surge and go on. He said hi to my niece and nephew. And Trevor became the Death Bringer
Ugm...whats the microwave?
I dedicate to thumbs. for obvious
reasons. and milk. for other obvious
reasons.
But in all seriousness, I dedicate this to anger. Because it scares me so bad that it takes almost nothing to get me angry... and it lasts and i will hurt anything or anyone until everything crashes and i want to cry... but i dont. because i dont.
Maybe the world needs anger
because it will
let evil live because
it isnt angry enough
but i can never tell
myself
enough that
that would stick
because the last thing
that i need is more anger
Riiiiiight.....
My phone made me post it in two parts. >.<
*goes back to read comments*
Well, look up :)
Actually, look down. Cause I just saved you the trouble of looking up :D
I posted this before:
Ooops. Well, at least we have a microwave now!
I hereby use up Robyns dedecation to dedecate this page to this wonderous microwave.
And to ask for a moments silence for the now deceased cold coffee.
I now shall officially give this blog this wonderous microwave as a gift.
Everyone here shall oath that whenever someone new or someone who wasnt here to witness this moment in history, they shall inform said new/unknowing poeple of this magical microwave and use it so that eventually everyone will know about the wonderous microwave. The WM. And so, the WM shall pass on through history, Blogger to blogger, father to son, etc.
I have just started a lifelong tradition :D
It would make more sense if you read the conversation before it, just saying.
O.o
Omg i memerized Dangerous Game
* gasp * I forgot to offer you a present!!! DO you want a present?
Me???
Sure
I have no emotional scars, either :P
I love all your dedications! Mine seriously sucks.
*frowns*
*starts reading Mockingjay again*
*Laughs* this is why Haymitch is my favourite!
Haymitch and JJ need to hook up. (JJ the drunk Head Gamemaker on my THG page)
Hey, Mitch! I'm Haymitch!
Peeta makes my heart hurt. </3 *still sat in the tree*
The song at the end in the meadow years later makes me cry
Heart attacks make my heart hurt. :D
Onions make me cry :D
Why was everyone dedicating?
Why has Luce changed her name?
WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?!
Deep in the meadow
under the willow
a bed of grass
a soft green pillow
Because I couldn't think of what to dedicate to..
I thought it was time to let Luce go. People dislike her.
It all seems to come back to me. *laughs softly*
Morning Aussie
*throws Nix in lake*
*gasps* I KNOW WHO PEETA REMINDS ME OF....
*almost falls out of the tree*
*laughs at self*
NO CRYING. NO. NO MATTER HOW ADORABLE PEETA IS!
Eve dont worry you not going for an unexpected swim...
Hmmm threw Nix in the lake. Next Em
Lay down your head,
and close your eyes
And when they open,
the sun will rise.
Here it's safe,
and here it's warm
Here the daisies
guard you from every harm
Here your dreams
are sweet
and tomorrow brings them true
Here is the place
where I love you.
Deep in the meadow,
hidden far away
A cloak of leaves,
a moonbeam ray
Forget your woes
and let your troubles lay
And when it's morning,
they'll wash away.
IT... IS.... NOT... MORNING
*rises into the air with glowing red eyes*
GET READY FOR THE ULTIMATE WATER FIGHT
*takes out water pistol and shoots Zaf*
Yay! I'm being slated from lakiness!
Nix! Did you see when I said bye to you?? DID YOU SEE IT?
*shadow walks to tree sending shadows at Nix*
where is an Elemental when you need one?
What about it?
*bends sunlight to tear apart shadows*
*begins to laugh*
Fine
*steals Pleasants gun and shoots Nix*
Shit, everyone's dedicating.
I dedicate to... I dedicate to beautiful lyrics. Lyrics that you sing to yourself and you just can't get them out of your head, lyrics that end up being the only reason you listen to the song, in the end...
I have too many. For instance:
"In restless dreams I walked alone,
Narrow streets of cobblestone...
'Neath the halo of a street lamp,
I turned my collar to the cold and damp..."
-Sound of Silence
Lyrics that will make no sense to anyone else unless they've heard the song, and listened to those sentences strung together brilliantly and know that they mean something important to you, and them.
Little Sea
Anemone, pool of rocks,
Why'd you see, an enemy,
I cannot?
Could there be,
a more heavenly artefact?
As pure as that?
-Tin, everything everything
Without my music, I don't know what I'd be. Sometimes it's the only thing that keeps most of us going.
And it makes life beautiful. I take it for granted.
This ded is going no-where and I fear that I've taken too long writing this and watching Fraser.
Well, I didn't IGNORE YOU!!!
Zafmira, Robyn Hood, Tee Tree Plaza person, email :)
*Hugs hb* It's beautiful. *grins*
Also...ohmygawdfinnick.Asdfghjkl. do you find this distracting?
....*giggles*
Mainly people ignore me when I come back
*catches bullet in mid air and sends it back*
Where did that bloody Sanctuary agent go?
She hasnt been thrown in the lake today
That Was Wonderful. I love music...
Most beautiful lyrics:
Hey, I just met you
And this is crazy
But here's my number
So call me maybe
*gets hit and falls out of tree*
oooh
*throws knife at Nix's head*
Lav says hi, everyone :)
Tea Tree Plaza person. That's me.
*turns knife into a butterfly*
Lav... how could you know she said hi?
Yep, I finally heard of it today! Have you heard, of Marion shopping centre, Hellboy?
Hello, butterfly
*shadow walks to wherever Em is and throws her in the lake*
yesss!!!! One Aussie in one Iriminion in...need Britiminion and a Kiwi
Well, she just replied to my email then. Told me to say hi. I sent you the same email, reply to it!
I don't honestly have an opinion on those names Eve
*sits in tree awaiting Master Derek*
why did I?! He never Blogspeaks much
I'm going to head off ._. It's 12am and my dad's going to come in soon to get me off the comp -__-
I should go to sleep... but no
Bye Hellboy!
Well you're no help at all. *trots away from Nix*
Dont you have school??
*shoots Zaf a look* Don't even think about it...
Bye Hellboy!!
*goes by Robyn and throws in lake*
i need a Kiwi
Bye-bye, Hellboy! *hugs* :')
I think I have heard of marion, but I think it's a bit far...hang on, google will help me.
Yep, it's a bit far.
HI!
I'm BACK!
HEYA, NIX!
HI, ZAF!
NICE DEDS, EVERYONE!
*pulls Zaf in the lake* and an Ameriminion.
That is what me thought.
Hi Skyyyyril!
*gasps* Luce, I thought you were in the UK! :O
Alright! Goodbye, all! :)
*hugs*
I wish my nick name was Charlie... Hmm, I've actually never had a nick name... Well, besides Lizard Breath but that was because I said, "Elizabeth" so fast when I was little that is sounded like "Lizard Breath"
*spazzes* and Derek....
Oh wait, never mind :P
I think I prefer this name. *nods*
Awww, goodnight, Hellboy!
Glad you were on :D
SEE YOU SOON!
I...*shakes head at Eve* Zaf is the...never mind...
*goes back to reading*
Bye Hellboy!
Right now, the nicknames I have from my friends are 'Eva' and 'Evveh' and 'Evelyn'. And then there's those annoying people who think it's okay to call me Evie. I take their toungues out
L? ...oh jesus. *goes to change Lucy Anna's contact name again*
Charlie would be an excellent nick name for my first name... Which none of you know... Well, except Hellboy, but he left now. Wait, I think none of you know... Did Luce guess it one time?? I don't rememberrrrr....
I'm in a fickle mood...
I don't know how given name. Is it Charlotte?
*your
Mm-mm.
Not Charlotte
*runs*
can we throw Derek in the lake?
I'm not sure if that would be an excellent idea, Zaf...
Oh. Then I don't know :P
Throoooow hiiiiiiiim
I'm becoming too tired to type...
Zafmira, check your email if you can. It's my dying request
I need to write, to be honest O_o

“We're not going on a wild duck hunt-”
“Goose chase.” Valkyrie corrected.
Skulduggery didn't seem to hear her. “We are not going on a duck hunt for something that is not real.”
“Skulduggery, it's goose chase. Not duck hunt.” Valkyrie insisted.
“I heard you the first time, my dear Valkyrie, and actually, it is duck hunt. It's always been duck hunt.”
“Since when?”
“Since just now, because I said so”
Lol :)
