A Birthday Party Around The World

A little post here, just to share the oddness that is my life.

Everyone has birthdays. These birthdays are celebrated. Sometimes there are parties. These things happen. These things are normal.

Some other people have birthdays that are celebrated in their absence, halfway around the world, by people they have never actually met. These things are definitely not normal. But these things happen to me.

My Minions, for your amusement, I provide for you a select few photos taken at the party organised by regular Minion commenter and general online-stalker, Valkyrie V Cain.


Billy-Ray Sanguine (in a lovely checked shirt tied off at the midriff... um...) and a seriously disturbed looking Tanith.


Melancholia, looking AWESOME.


Solomon Wreath, being his/her generally aloof self.


Kitana, kicking the hell out of poor Valkyrie...


... and looking pretty smug about it, too.


Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you one Nefarian Serpine, he/she of the red right hand...


... and poor China Sorrows, who has no idea what is about to happen.


Argeddion. Looking VERY pleased with himself.


You may be forgiven for wondering who is this long-haired person who is trying to woo Valkyrie, but then you will realise- it's Caelan. OBVIOUSLY.


A wonderful time had by all...


... and even I attended! (Sort of.)


And two photos to end things off. One... just because I think her facial expression is hilarious...


And the final photo of Valkyrie V Cain herself. All these photos have made me grin so much I think I've broken my face. Thank you Valkyrie, and thanks to all your (admittedly insane) friends...!

Ah..yes. Me remembers now :)
Ecinness? Is that even an actual word?
*Works out it's nice backwards*
I'm being really slow this evening...

Everyone's being so serious and senstive and ecin right now! :O
*Puts on scary joker mask*
Why so serious?

Unknown said...

Hey guys!

My mom read Scepter of the Ancients today, and she really liked it. Happiness!

Star Inkbright said...

*looks at Em* It all depends whether you judge ecinness on the outcome or the intention. Surely it's intention that really matters? But no, it doesn't matter why ecinness has occured, so long as there is more of it in the world, right?

CONUNDRUM.

Sapphire from my story would say intention. Mike from my story would say outcome. Marigold from my story would say who the hell cares?

Maybe I should do that to find my answer. Look at my characters and see what they would think. Lily would say intention. Spicey would definately be a who the hell cares. :P

If Marigold thought about it, she would say outcome. Yay.

NOM Ominous said...

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!1
I just thought I'd take a moment let that out.

Proceed.

Ieni Strider (Ieni The Ninja Aeroplane, Eater of Fabi's armses) said...

I think I'm going to go now, otherwise I might fall asleep in Blogland and just stay there, because I'm so tired..
*Yawn*
Byebye peeps!
Did I just call you peeps? Seriously? Where did that come from? I never ever ever use the word peeps. I just...don't.

Star Inkbright said...

HI KES!!!

I'm fine. :)

Really really really sorry about making you depressed. :'(

Anonymous said...

It wasn't you, really.

*hugs all* *is trying to decide if buying more SP books will be worth the lecture*

Star Inkbright said...

Well, it WAS an epic contribution to our lives. :)

Drew O'Connor said...

Ladies and gents

Dublin Daes word count is officially ... 63,655!!

Fuck yeah!!

Star Inkbright said...

Still feel guilty. :( I should keep my depressing thoughts to myself.

Anonymous said...

Kal, that was brilliant! And I am going to buy them, the decision is really whether I should buy them NOW or in a couple of days when the ones I ordered yesterday get here.

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

Did anyone else think the lady in Mirror Mirror could make a China Sorrows? If she wore contacts?

Star Inkbright said...

Talking things out with myself always makes me feel better. :) Even if it's just working myself out of writers' block.

Kal, you are honestly a really nice person. :)

But don't worry about me, I'm fine. I just think way too much. *frowns* And my thoughts don't always like me. But I'm really really fine. :)

Hey Val! Which lady?

Rim. said...

Hey guys I have about 10 mins.

Star Inkbright said...

HI RIM!!!!

Anonymous said...

Hey RIM! Long time, no Blogsee! How're you?

Star Inkbright said...

Have you ever thought that whenever you say you're thinking about suucide it always sounds like you're considoring committing suicide? I can't think of an easy way to say you're thinking about the subject of suicide without having any desire to do it.

. . . Sorry. :P Being depressing again . . .

Rim. said...

Hey Keston, Star, Kal and Val.
I'm good, you?

Star Inkbright said...

I'm not amazing. :) But I'm not a mass murderer, so I can live with it. ;)

Rim. said...

Wow. A lot of people are depressed... I don't like depressedness.

Flame Phoenix said...

Em will you please stop ACTING like your te centre of Blogland. :/


YOU'RE NOT.

Rim. said...

FLAME!!!! YOU ARE AWESOME!!!!

Star Inkbright said...

HAVING TWO BROWSERS IS CONFUZZLING. I've just been idly flicking my menu open and closed for a minute waiting to see my refresh button on it, because I forgot my refresh button was on the side menu instead of the menu from my menu button.

Anonymous said...

When was Em acting like she was the centre of Blogland? *is confused*

RIM, I is wonderful. SP books on the way. :P

Flame Phoenix said...

*The and You're

Flame Phoenix said...

Rim? *confuddled*

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Flame, she never was! How many times has Derek posted how far he is in a book? GAWD she's HAPPY

Anonymous said...

If I had finished a novel and it was that long, I would announce it to my friends too. *drops it*

Rim. said...

Flame, I just had to say that you are awesome and not afraid to say what you feel.

Rim. said...

I'm gonna leave, so bye.

Anonymous said...

Bye RIM!

Flame Phoenix said...

I was talking about her comments like 'jesus lads, I leave you for a couple if hours and all he'll breaks loose'.


She's not te big peace keeper thy keeps blogland together!

Hell! No one is!

Flame Phoenix said...

Hell*

Anonymous said...

She was kidding...

Flame Phoenix said...

Does anyone have rims email?


I have it somewhere....

Star Inkbright said...

I'm not suicidal and I'm pretty proud of it. No reason why I should be proud of it. Just am. :)

Only occasionally I do think about the subject of suicide without the desire to commit it. One time at rockclimbing I spent half of the session thinking of a song called Inside the Fire, which is, uh, about suicide. Then I spent the other half thinking of a way to say you were thinking about suicide without sounding like you wanted to commit suicide, because I wanted to be able to think to myself, "Huh, I've been thinking about suicide all session. My brain is such a cheerful place," without sounding suicidal.

. . . To quote myself, my brain is such a cheerful place . . .

I'm not feeling at all depressed atm, btw. I'm reallt cheerful. I just like trying to solve things like this. I know, I'm odd. :)

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

I have it.



And Kestrel, I was talking about whoever played Snow White in the movie.

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

Star, you should be proud of it. Not wanting to end your life is something to be proud of.

Anonymous said...

Oh! She has the appearance, but I thought she was a really rubbish actor.

Flame Phoenix said...

*pokes Val* May I have it?

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

*pokes Flame* Sure.

Flame Phoenix said...

Kirsten Stewart?

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

NO. The one in Mirror Mirror.


I hate Kristen Stewart...

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Flame, she just commented like wow i go off for a bit and chaos happens, besides Derek she is kinda like older

Star Inkbright said...

. . . Alright, I should puzzle over different things . . .

Suicide is actually really sad.

*realises what I'm saying* Damn. But it is. Just thought I should remind you all.

I want to talk about Gone now. :) But I'll settle for whatever everybody else is talking about.

Noelle said...

JADRA, WINJ, AND JEM.

JACExADRA
WILLxNJ
JEMxEM <<< completely coincidental. NJ and I hate Jem... EUGH.

THAT IS ALL

I hate Kristen Stewart!!

Anonymous said...

No Adra! Thou shalt remain! *ties Adra to chair*

Star Inkbright said...

YES, but if my life was really crappy and I didn't have tons of amazing friends like YOU, THEN I would have a proper reason to be proud of it. :)

A subject change is need. Ummmm . . . *throws skittles at everyone* If you like skittles then say: "*tastes the rainbow*"!

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

I am in the US... And I don't know how I managed to pay for my books. Maybe it's because eight of them were mailed to me by Derek...


Oh, by the way Derek, YOU CANNOT DENY MY LIKELINESS TO VALKYRIE

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

Flame Phoenix said...

Star Inkbright said...

You can be annoyed with me if you wish. I get irritated when I get mistaken for a boy.

Alex Firefoot said...

Star Inkbright said...

Did you believe Sebastian was good in City of Lost Souls?

I DID!!!! More proof that I'm really gullible. :)

Alex Firefoot said...

im not annoyed just sayin its cool
brb

Star Inkbright said...

Wow. You are more tolerant than me. :)

Alex Firefoot said...

yeah but i knew that Seb was always a bastard he couldn't hide from me....

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

I'm not very tolerant.

Alex Firefoot said...

hows that for a profile pic?

Eve the ROCK said...

What?! Becoming an Eve is impossible! Unless you burn a cluster of mother ducks and walk upon them!

Star Inkbright said...

He could hide from me. :P

Flame Phoenix said...

*hangs upside down from banisters*


I'm only on CoFA! Okay. I don't get time to read.

Flame Phoenix said...

Have we met?


Eve the ROCK said...

Light it on fire and it becomes partly Skukduggery :D

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

Skukduggery? *shakes head*

Flame Phoenix said...

I thought it was just the deathly hallow sign..


But I didn't actually look, so shush.

Alex Firefoot said...

no we haven't met in person Flame but yeah it should have Skuldug in it. good idea to set it on fire Eve!

Flame Phoenix said...

I didn't get any sweets while trick or treating.

I joined late and all the people I was with had been trick or treating for two hours and had BAGS of stuff.


I merely got a handful :(


That was off my granny too.

Eve the ROCK said...

Dammit. I misspell it one time and now autocorrect thinks it's a word.

*Skulduggery

Alex Firefoot said...

sonic screwdriver WOOO yeah i know its epic

Flame Phoenix said...

No I mean on the blog?

Alex Firefoot said...

i didn't go trick or treating becuase
a) my parents say that it is american and we shouldn't join in
b) I had a dance class anyway

Star Inkbright said...

THAT'S AN AWESOME PP. :)

*burns a cluster of mother ducks and reaches out to take first step*

*hesitates* Nooooo I can't do it!!! I can't ruin my footwear like that!!!!

You're right. I haven't got what it takes to become an Eve. I love my boots too much. :(

. . . I love how we have these conversations by posting replies at wildly different times . . .

Flame Phoenix said...

No I mean on the blog?

MonsterMouse said...

So... cool.

Alex Firefoot said...

yeah i think we have flame i know sparky really well so i think ive spoken to you sometime

Eve the ROCK said...

Consider yourself lucky, Phoenix. Australia doesn't even celebrate Halloween. Otherwise I would've spent my Wednesday running around in a Cthulhu costume.

Alex Firefoot said...

DESTROY ALL OTHER COMMENTS! *is standing dramatically on top of dramatic hill with dramatic sunset as dramtic background in dramatic comment-destroying costume*

Innocent Bystander: *looks at me, then turns to friend* Hey, who is that idiot standing on a molehill dressed like a guinea pig?

Eve the ROCK said...

Nup! Some kids dress up just for the fun of it, but only a few houses are actually open for trick-or-treating. 80% of my friends/family/acquaintances forgot it was Halloween. It's funny cuz the shops actually have to remind you when it is so they can sell stuff to you. It's pretty lame. That's why I want to go America or England or Ireland or wherever else they celebrate it.

Flame Phoenix said...

Love how all the Aussies go to the blog while in class.

:D

Halloween is awesome.

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

Oh, that was a brilliant first impression... XD


And Amanda thought you were a terrible tasting pie.

Flame Phoenix said...

She had bad breath.

It wasn't fun for me either... xD

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

Flame, you can see how much shorter Amanda is compared to me in that first picture. *points to post*

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

*laughs* That's hilarious.


Flame Phoenix said...

I try. :D

Oh and tell her I said that.

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

I will, trust me. She'll probably just threaten to send her flying monkeys again.

Alex Firefoot said...
