Hello.
Ah, my poor neglected blog. How I have ignored you. Once you were the apple of my eye (okay, not really — the name of this blog is what it is, after all), but then along came Twitter and suddenly you seemed somewhat clunky and... unwieldy...
But see? I have returned. I've been away a lot, I know. Work. I had that book to publish (which went really well, by the way) and then all those tours, including a trip to New Zealand and Australia to meet all those readers with funny accents.
My life has been somewhat chaotic as of late, and when things get chaotic, some other things suffer. You, it seems, are one of these things.
But I'll try to rectify that. I really will. I'm home now, after all, and settling back into normal life. What normal life will bring me, though, I have no idea.

*sees Rave and smiles* hello bach, how are you today? I love the daisy chain
Indeed I am.
Bloody hell.
Loki!!!
I'm great. At least I'm 96% sure I'm great. Yeah, great. How are you?
*straightens the daisy chain up noticing that one flower was falling out of place*
There. Perfect. Thank you, I like daisy chains too.
Fine. I ran into a tree.
Gotta go...
Bye...
*Cuddles Loki*
(I haven't used Felix in a while...)
*smiles* I am good thank you
Felix: *walks into the bar* whats up?
*turns* oh, hey Felix
(byii Death)
*tries to frown and put on a mock-hurt voice, nether of which sound very convincing*
Oh, if it isn't Mr. I'm-allergic-to-cute-stuff.
*folds arms*
(Goodbye Death.)
Felix: *grins* hello Rvae, miss me?
*warning voice* Felix, be nice
(OMIGOD 2 CELLOS ARE THE BEST! I LOVE THEIR COVER OF 'YOU SHOOK ME ALL NIGHT LONG')
Well, I haven't decided if I've missed you yet.
*continues the frown*
You just came here and you're already springing questions on me. You've got to learn how to...
*pauses looking for the right words and then says them with a confused tone*
engage in polite conversation?
*frowns*
But yes, I missed you. I haven't seen you in a while and overall I'm very happy that you are here.
*tries to keep a straight face*
Felix: forgive me *sarcastic tone* how are you this delightful morning?
Felix...
*smiles*
I'm great, I think. As I said before, I'm 96% sure I'm great. How are you?
(Soph?)
Annabelle: *walks into the bar playing 'Baby' at full blast on repeat* *waves*
Felix: Im alright, like...96% ? what about 100%
*carries on drinking*
(good morning from Wales)
*jumps*
*doesn't turn around* Annabelle! turn that crap off!
(GAR! *glomps*)
Annabelle: don't insult my heart throb! He's amazing!
Well I can't be entirely sure I'm great, there's always the possibly I'm not great. I might be fantabulous but just don't know it yet.
*turns head to the source of the music*
*makes the same face she does when she eats something sour*
Oh. I really don't like this song.
*waves*
Hey, do you mind turning your music down?
*shudders* why don't you play...the pretty reckless?
(Apologies. Internet trouble.)
I do not believe you.
Felix: This music is for sissies and annoying fangirls!
(Apologies. Internet trouble.)
I do not believe you.
(Hello Garrett.)
*covers her ears*
Make the bad music stop!
Felix: *walks to belle*
*takes her phone/radio or whatevs off her*
*walks over to the bar*
May I please have a water.
Bartender: *hands the water over*
Thank you!
*walks and stands next to Inky, casually sipping her water*
*smiles* water is a bit boring, don't you think? what about adding whiskey?
That's your fault not mine.
Annabelle: hey! Go ahead. Take it. You'll NEVER guess the password so you can't turn it off! Ha!
*smiles trying to hide her fear and doing a pretty awful job*
I'd really rather not, I mean, I love water. Water, water, water...
*trails off*
And of course there was that little incident from last time.
*smiles*
But hey, I love water.
Wish me luck!!
(*accepts glomping and holds you in a huggle* Hello wolfie, how be you?)
(Hello Rave, long time no speak, how be you? *offers friendly huggle*)
Felix: *turns the volume down on the side of the phone* there
*walks over to the bar and orders a lager*
(Smash it Felix, just smash it. For all our sakes, smash the device.)
(Good luck, Rose.)
You are a vampire. You do not just walk into trees. I will ask you again to tell me the truth.
*nods slowly* if youre sure...
(*Huggles Gar* I be great thanks, you?)
(I be good. How are you? *accepts the huggle* I
Thank you for your huggle.)
(Felix has some sort of a conscience )
*turns to Felix*
Honest opinion Mr Cute-Allergies. Is it bad for kids to drink alcohol?
*whispers to Chloe*
He'll tell you it's a bad idea too.
(I'm really happy thank you,
no probs Rave *huggles Inks and Rave*)
*steps out of Inky's shadow* hello my friends
(So he's perfectly willing to go through the torture of Baby, but won't stick a daisy chain on his head. Gee wiz.)
Felix: *shrugs* if they want to, they should go ahead. So go for it Inks
*smiles* thanks
Hey Gar! whats up? where is Tawnee?
Tawnee: *wonders around blogland*
I'll go find her *shadow walks to Tawnee*
(he turned down the volume)
Tawnee: *smiles* hello sweetie
*gasps and covers the top of her glass with her hand*
No touch-y.
*stares at Felix*
You're crazy, I swear in a minute you'll be saying it's perfectly ok to have contact with guys even if you haven't had your cooties shot.
*jumps on drops her glass on the floor when Garret jumps out*
Whoops. Hello Garrett.
*bends down and starts to pick up the glass*
Soph I am covered head to toe in knives is it so hard to figure out I occasionally accidently stab myself when transfering them.
Annabelle: *looks extremely upset* my....my music...
Felix: *to belle* serves you right for playing crap
*to Rave* it is...
It is the accidental part which I am enquiring about.
(But like, there's always the threat of it coming on again. That threat, would be enough for me to run 10km away, put a set of ear -buds in and then lock myself in a bunker. But that's okay, because I will respect the morals of Felix and respect anyone who likes that pathetic excuse for a song.)
(okay Rave ^^)
*laughs*
And people say I'm crazy. But anyway, just make sure you don't touch me, I don't want to get cooties and I haven't found the vaccination place yet.
*picks up the rest of the glass and gets another water*
*cuddles Loki Jr.* Happy National Cat Day!-Zanida
Felix: *grasps Rave in a massive hug* ohnooo! you haven't had an injection yet!
*huggles Taw* hello love, how are you today and how's gizmo?
Tawnee: *huggles* I am good ish. Gizmo keeps making me sick...
*screams and pulls out of the hug*
*starts hyperventilating*
Don't p, no! I need a doctor, I was serious I haven't had my shots yet. It's not fair that you get to live and become old while I'm only 13 and I'm going to die because of stupid cooties.
*tries to breathe normally but starts crying instead*
Why would you do that?
Annabelle: but...I need my phone...
Accidents happen. *shrugs*
felix: *eyes widen* cooties isn't a real thing you know...
(back, damn phone,
i think mine is evil)
*half stops crying and stares at him*
It's one thing to infect someone, but to then lie to them about their disease, that's sick. My mum told me it was real, Silente said that she had been vaccinated so don't tell me it's not real.
*calls out to Inky*
Help me Inky! Felix infected me!
Having cuts on your wrists is rarely an accident.
Felix: *to Annabelle* no you dont
*coughs*
*turns around* infected you with what?
(Hello Snow.)
With cooties!
*hyperventilates again*
I was just telling him that I hadn't had my shots yet and then he touched me and now I have cooties and I don't want to die and then he said it wasn't real but my mum told me cooties was real. Cooties is real right?
*frowns* im sorry to disappoint you, but it isn't a real thing
*looks at Taw* do you want to come to the bar? Inky and Raven are there.
(my ded is in the making, it'll be done soon)
It is a real thing.
*starts sweating*
Look I'm sweating, I got boy cooties. and it's all his fault. What if I gave him girl cooties he wouldn't like that would he?
(okay gar ^^)
Tawnee *smiles* okay
Rave...he was in contact with you, wouldn't he havecooties by now?
And you are sweating because you are nervous
*stops moving completely*
So my whole life, everyone has lied to me about cooties?
(Wait did felix kiss Raven?)
Annabelle: yes I do!
Rarely. But sometimes they are.
As I said - I am not letting you out until you tell me the truth.
(No! He just hugged her , well kind of hugged her. Raven's just dumb, I swear, I wonder sometimes how I initially created someone so dumb, but that's beside the point. No Sil, there was no kissing.)
How do you want to get to the bar?
(no, he huggled her)
Felix: *to Belle* no you don't!
im so sorry Rave...
Tawnee: how about walking? I don't want to harm the baby
*looks up at Inky*
Is everything a lie? Is that what people do? Do they just disappoint you? The world looked a lot happier with cooties in it.
*hugs Inky*
*nods* ok *takes Taw's hand hand and they start walking*
(time interval)
*the pair arrive outside the bar*
*opens door for Taw* after you
*hugs Rave* The world iss a better place without cooties, you know. And not everybody lies...
Tawnee: *smiles* thanks sweetie. Hello everyone!
No probs *walks in after Taw* hello peeps
Not everybody.....just those who you thought meant the most to you.
*smiles*
Well, I have to go.
Bye!
*turns to Felix*
Don't ever do that again Mr Get-me-away-from-cute-stuff. Never.
*walks out of the bar curtseying at Garrett and Tawnee as she leaves*
(I have to to now, bye.)
welcomes Gar, Tawnee. How is everything? How is the baby?
Tawnee: *taps baby bump* the baby is doing fine
(byii Rave!)
(Good bye Rave)
i be cool how be you? *puts badass sunglasses on*
Im good
(sorry if I disappear, there is a chance my mum will get angry with me, anyone can email me if I do, check my profile)
And how do you know I'm not telling the truth?
Annabelle: *starts crying*
(My ded:
i ded to the British, because we are never happy with the weather we always complain when its too hot, we always complain when its too cold or windy or any form of weather we can never have the happy medium,
now part 2
i also ded to the weather because you never know what's going to happen in the day, ok you have the weather forecast but its sometimes wrong so don't really know)
Felix: *looks surprised* uh...stop that
(hear hear!)
Because I know when people are lying. I know. And you are lying.
(ok Inks)
*looks at Annabelle* why are you crying?
Annabelle: *sniffles and sobs*
Fine.II'm lying.
Felix: its my fault. I wont let her play her crappy music
So how did you get the cuts?
*looks to felix* can i have that phone please?
Felix: *gives fphone to Gar* just make her stop
I..my knives.
J
Annabelle: *keeps crying
And why did you do it?
It's um...its just a bad habit..
*deletes all the music on the phone*
*gives it back to Annabelle*
(@Gar its password protected.)
Sorry, there was a pun war with Annika over twitter. I'm saying I won because she had to leave.
its okay Annabelle...look
*necklace forms on Felix* sit boy!
Felix: *plummets to the ground* hey!
I see. You really should stop.
(I'm clever, it shouldn't be too hard to guess a password)
*looks at Inks* how many of those necklaces do you have?
I know. Can I go fix my wrist now?
Annabelle: *watches Felix and laughs happily*
(@Garr yeah but if you get the password wrong three times the front camera takes a picture and uploads it to facebook saying 'this person has stolen my phone')
Yes. I will, however, appoint Sarah to make sure that you are alright.
YOU DELETED THE MUSIC AIEGA)ISNAISNAISNAIOSN some peopel have to PAY for that you know!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh my gosh, if someone deleted MY music I would MURDER them.
Well, I would probably yell and then go and cry. :P
#overlypossessive
Also, you have no right to tell her her music is crap. Mara once said that music was like medication. Just because it doesn't work for you doesn't mean it doesn't save lives. Everyone likes music for a variety of ways. I like music. I like some music that other people would call crappy. I like some music that people who listened to the first type of music would call crappy.
When you love something and people yell at you and tell you it's shit, it HURTS. Maybe it's not good in the ways you like music, but it's good in the ways she likes music. Furthermore, you're not even explaining WHY you think it's crappy. I don't have a problem with me mentioning music (or anything) I like and people telling me it's not their thing. That's fine. That's respectful. But saying it's shit is not fine. Who says you know everything, anyway? Maybe it's you who doesn't know what good music is. Or maybe it's not. YOU DON'T KNOW. We are all equal and her opinions matter just as much as yours do. Disagree and debate by all means, but don't go DELETING it.
. . . Admittedly, when asked, Annabelle should have turned it off. I'm not saying she's perfect. But I'm not saying you are either.
*smiles evily* I can make however many I like
Tawnee: that is so cool! *squeals*
*groans* But Sarah is irritating after too long..
(frick, I have soo much homework, I may be back later)
(true point Star)
(ok i won't try guess the password then Sil, so ignore the part about me deleting the music)
*looks slightly worried* ok thank you Inks
(*rolls* I like puns. Puns are awesome. )
I doubt you would want someone who you do not know.
(Hear hear the weather always sucks)
*a ghost of Tanya Halcyon hugs Silente*
*leaves*
Thats a good point..fine.
(msd.)
So you have a choice between me and her. She has not killed you in the past, therefore I assume she would be the best choice.
(Thanks. :))
(How are you, Star?)
(I will be back soon.)
Fine, thanks. :) You?
(I am back.
I am depressed.)
Well, that's better than it could be.
(Indeed it is. It could be worse.)
*nods*
Things could generally be worse, though. And if they couldn't, you know they can only get better. :)
(Or staying where it is is always a possibility, regardless of how bad things are.)
(Yes. But out of getting better or staying the same . . . at least it won't get worse. And it's highly likely to get better - it only seems bad in comparison to your life experience. :))
*so in comparison with your life, this is BELOW AVERAGE. That means it ISN'T NORMAL - ie. IS ABNORMAL. This means that being better is normal and more common. :)
(Perhaps.
I will be back soon.)
I just posted a very anti-gun comment on a thread full of gun enthusiasts.
Um . . .
*waits for the storm to hit me*
*nods at Sophia* :)
Here for ten ish minutes...
Hi. :)
(I am back somewhat but may disappear suddenly.
Gun enthusiasts... Well, I like weaponry. I won't claim otherwise. They're useful. But I am not a civilian, so I presume that is not very worrying.)
FAY!
*hugs*
Hi. :)
*nods at Sophia*
*hugs back* :)
Hi, Sophia! *would hug her but would probably get injured very seriously* :P
Wbdddddddd . . . need to get art-ing. O_O
At the airport!!!
Okay :)
Sorry, just looking up the names thing on Urban Dictionary, and the definitions are really nice... :P
What am I doing with my life XD
(Wbvd)
*high fives Rose for no good reason*
Airports are cool :)
(I will be back soon.)
*Hi fives back*
I'll see you all in Darwin!!!
@Rose: :)
*leaves because sleep is sadly a biological need*
Sleep is a biological need. :O
Oh god... Those massage chairs...
(Have a good flight, Danni!)
I don't like massage chairs.
Hate them, in fact. :P
Thank you Tia!!
*Cuddles*
I'm not leaving yet...
I really like them...
I've always hated massages, even when I used to like physical contact. I don't know why. I just never found having your back dug into appealing. :/
These massage chairs are amazing.
I've never had a massage before...
But that was amazing...
I like massages..
*hugs Danni*
*Huggles Tia*
Ily...
(I am back.
I would hate massage chairs.)
Hey Soph!!!
*Nuzzles Tia's chest softly and looks up at him*
I have to go... My Tia cuddles... I'll miss them...
*Cries and fades away*
Awh ♡
*huggles Danni*
Good bye :(
Fours, Death . . . :(
(Goodbye, Rose.)
(Hands up if you're likely to have your ear nagged off soon! *throws hand up* yey!)
Yeah..i suppose I would prefer her. She'll let me go swimming.
(Why is that, Silente?)
Perhaps. Do not escape from her, however.
(I only just found out I'm at dads so ill get shouted at for being unorganised. *sigh*)
No promises...
Msd.
(I see.)
If you attempt to get away from her, I will find you.
(No. No that's not okay mum. I see dad TWO DAYS A WEEK and I'm not allowed to go cause you need a bloody BABYSITTER?? I AM NOT FREE LABOUR!!! And no, I can't go tomorrow, I have a sleep over. You know this! So no. It's not okay. So no, I won't be here when you come back from darts. As soon as Nathan is home tonight to care for Connor, I'm out of here.)
Mhmm. Sure.
(*nods* I hope everything works out for you.)
You know I will.
(OH AND YOUR LEAVING ME WITH ONE OR TWO COUSINS TOO? OH YEAH THAT'S JUST FINE. SO GLAD YOU TOLD ME THIS AND I DIDN'T FIND OUT FROM MY COUSIN. OH WAIT!)
Yeah I know you will TRY.
(*hugs Silente tightly* The joys of having a family, huh?)
And I will succeed. I rarely fail.
(I SWEAR all she sees me as now is free labour. My room as a hotel for others. I'm sick of it! Dads is HEALTHIER FOR ME! There's less stress. Less mess. Less depressed parents. I actually SLEEP at dads! I don't have to play babysitter at dads! I'm HAPPIER at dads! I'd live at dads if I fucking could. We SHOULD be living at dads! Would be if his brother hadn't convinced him to drop getting full custody the day before he would've been given full custody. Ugh. *goes to find something to destroy*)
Maybe.
(I will be back soon.)
I'm on a plane.
The plane has wifi.
This just got interesting...
(*comes back* my hand hurts. Punching the wall didn't help. I'm still pissed.)
(As is my actual dp)
(Hello my darlings)
(Hello Flick. I hope your day is going better than mine.)
(It's been alright
*huggles Sil* want to talk about it?)
(*points at the above mini rants* Already sorta done so. In a way.)
(Agh well my email is always open if you want to speak *gives Sil icecream*)
(I don't have your email.)
(It's on my profile)
(okay/ Got it.)
(I've just decided I don't like mrs browns boys dmovie)
(Why?)
(its not the same as the series...*sighs* I was looking forward to it. Oh well,
*huggles SIl*)
(*hugs back, crying*)
(*strokes hair* its okay)
(I am back somewhat. *hugs Silente tightly*)
(*hugs tighter* Please..just distract me)
(welcomes Soph
uh....Halloween is coming up! excited?)
(*Fades in* Greetings)
(Can someone throw sil into a life or death situation please?)
(Hey Ed, how art thou?)
