A chat with my brain the other day:
Me: I hope Write this Book comes out this year. I also hope The Word Gang’s sequel does as well.
Brain: Really? They still need to be finished, edited, published, promoted, and all that.
Me: I guess I could handle it…
Brain: Yeah, right. You can barely wait seven months for a British TV show. Try that on for size.
Me: How will I make it this year?
Brain: [no comment]-

But….. it’s not just “A British TV Show”…. it’s DOCTOR WHO!!!!!!!!!

Zach
Indeed!

Agent SD
And Lemony Snicket’s new book. And Allie Brosh’s. And… and…
We’ll survive somehow.

Zach
Ahhh! And *In A Glass Grimly…*

violinplayer10101
Wait, Write This Book is real???? Nina told me that it’s fake!!!
-
Agent YKW
No! It’s really real!
-
violinplayer10101
Hmmm…I don’t know who to believe…
-
Her Magesty, Agent Lady Estelle
Hello, Jenny. I responded to your message….
-
violinplayer10101
On messenger? You logged off so I did too.
-
violinplayer10101
I’m on.

Agent YKW
SD SAYS IT”S REAL! SO IT IS!
-
violinplayer10101
WELL WHAT IF IT ISN’T?? NINA SAID IT WAS A TRICK THAT SD MADE!
-
Agent SD
Write This Book is very real, although I did play a rather mean April Fools’ trick last year.
-
violinplayer10101
What was it? Ohhh, the Matt Smith one. But…but…does that mean Nina lied to me???
-
Agent SD
No, last year meaning 2011… I don’t think Nina lied to you because she probably thought Write This Book wasn’t going to exist. And Nigeus!
-
violinplayer10101
Oh, okay. Well, Nina probably did think that. What was the trick?
-
Agent SD
Oh no wait, my mistake, my prank actually didn’t involve Write This Book…

I know it’s not a recent story, but I just read it and it is sad but cool:
-
Zorganoth
does anyone believe in psychics? i kinda do, i know most of them are fake but my one friend and i were video chatting on the night that the tsunami in japan happened and right before it happen she started to cry, and i mean full out crying. I’m like freaking out cus it was so sudden and then she starts saying stuff like “people are dying! lots of people!” and she’s a psychic. she predicted the tsunami, and me and her were the first people to know it was going to happen
-
Zach
Wow! Unbelievable! Predicting a tsunami?!
-
Zorganoth
yeah the psychic thing runs in her family. her dad has known for years where Osama was hiding but nobody believed him when he said anything about it. then guess where they found him? the exact place her dad said
-
Zach
Wow. This is for real?!
-
Zorganoth
yeah its real
-
-
Robin
Mmmmm…I’m too rooted in science. I dunno. I can’t explain against her ‘gift’, but other people can’t explain how being psychic could be possible.
-
Zorganoth
and robin i completely agreed! id absolutely claim these stories to be false if i hadn’t been there.
-
Zorganoth
I’m very rooted to science too
-
Zach
Same here…

Fish Custard, Take 3
Above is my 3rd variation on the food treasured by Whovians: fish custard. I first tried it a while back with special fish stick-shaped cookies and custard. Then (before I went vegan), I did it with real fish sticks. It was surprisingly good.
This vegan version uses flavored vegetable tofu as the fish and custard based on vanilla soy milk. It was okay — could’ve been better.
For the actual episode, Matt Smith’s fish sticks were actually Twinkies. If I can find a vegan one, I’d try it that way…
-
Robin
Ahhh haa haa haaaaa!!! Well, I suppose vegan fish sticks might be better with custard…Maybe? Anyway, shaped cookies sound like the best idea. XD
-
Agent SD
Awesome! I want to try!
-
Zach
Just grab a tofu product of some sort or a veggie burger patty and cut it into strips. Then, dip in Jell-O pudding (mine made with soy milk). It tastes okay, pretty weird at first.
And I’m sorry that the picture isn’t amazing. It’s just a quick snap I shared from my iPhone after auto-enhancing the colors.

Ehmagod! (Trying not to say ‘oh my gods’ for as long as I can go…’ehmagod’ dosn’t count, does it?
)
Looks okay…not gonna try it though…

Happy Semi-Late Birthday, SD!
If it wasn’t for my cousin Agent SD, we wouldn’t all be gathered here today. Thanks for creating this blog, SD. You’re pretty awesome. And I can only say that about a few people
.And now, back to waiting for Doctor Who. This is what they must really mean by “Silence will fall.”
No, wait, we’re just all sitting around complaining to each other about it…XD
-
Agent SD
Thanks, Zach!
Ugh, I can’t wait any longer!!!!
-
AP
HAPPY B-DAY, SD! And seriously, thanks. The Terces Society gives me something to do when I absolutely can’t think of anything (at least) constructive to do. As for Dr. Who, good luck with that!

Random Thoughts of the Day
Before I start my work, I have an odd thought to share:
The folks at the W3C say that my dear old friend the
i tag is deprecated. They now say that the right thing to do is to use the p style=”{font-style:italic} tag. What happened to good old i?I guess the message is: Why do humans sometimes shun the simplicity that everyone likes in their daily lives?
-
Agent SD
Aww, NOOOOOO!!!!!!
-
violinplayer10101
Wait, what? “my dear old friend the” The what????????
Wait, never mind, I got it.

October 20th = National Writing Day!

Orange has almost no perfect rhymes. The only word in the 20-volume historical Oxford English Dictionary that rhymes with orange is sporange, a very rare alternative form of sporangium (a botanical term for a part of a fern or similar plant). Silver is another word for which it is almost impossible to find a perfect rhyme: the only candidate is the rare word chilver, which the 20-volume Oxford English Dictionary defines as ‘a ewe-lamb’ (i.e. a female lamb).

Zorganoth 3:54 pm on May 20, 2012 Permalink |
not on the internet. but thanks anyway
Zorganoth 3:57 pm on May 20, 2012 Permalink |
if you read the most recent post on my blog i bet you’d get an idea

Awwwww… I PLANTED A TREE TODAY!
Her Magesty, Agent Lady Estelle 3:03 pm on May 20, 2012 Permalink |
Yeah, what happened? (Nigeus, Robin Song)
Robin 3:04 pm on May 20, 2012 Permalink |
{Good day, Nina! I think she might have left.}
Her Magesty, Agent Lady Estelle 3:05 pm on May 20, 2012 Permalink |
(Oh…. so you respond to “Robin Song”!!!! I am so definitely calling you that from now on.)
violinplayer10101 3:06 pm on May 20, 2012 Permalink |
Hey, I’ll call you Wendy!
Robin 3:07 pm on May 20, 2012 Permalink |
{*Shrugs* SD calls me “Miss Timey Steampunk Wimey”. XD }
Her Magesty, Agent Lady Estelle 3:09 pm on May 20, 2012 Permalink |
(But that isn’t as perfect as Robin Song! I mean, you are in loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooovvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvveeeeeeeeeeeeeeee with the doctor, aren’t yooooooooooooooou?)
violinplayer10101 3:10 pm on May 20, 2012 Permalink
Hey, stop teasing Robin!
Robin 3:10 pm on May 20, 2012 Permalink
I’m going to gracefully ignore your comment. Being a teenage robot, I am incapable of emotional involvement.
violinplayer10101 3:13 pm on May 20, 2012 Permalink
You aren’t a robot! You’re a human! Or else I will think that you are an internet hacker…

5:00 got a call to bladin’ at the skate park down by the mall. But my mom says I gotta prevent evil aliens from annihilating us all.
Zach 6:05 pm on May 21, 2012 Permalink
Don’t you mean annihilating?
Agent SD 10:46 pm on May 21, 2012 Permalink
Yes sir. XD That’s what I get for copying and pasting off another website. *headdesks*
Her Magesty, Agent Lady Estelle 3:13 pm on May 20, 2012 Permalink |
A robot? I thought you were a Time-Lady!
Robin 3:15 pm on May 20, 2012 Permalink
Who says I can’t be both? I do have Cyborg hands.
Her Magesty, Agent Lady Estelle 3:16 pm on May 20, 2012 Permalink
I’m a Time Lady. I discovered a long time ago that I have to hearts.
Her Magesty, Agent Lady Estelle 3:16 pm on May 20, 2012 Permalink
AHHHHHHHHHH! TWO! TWO HEARTS!!!!
violinplayer10101 3:19 pm on May 20, 2012 Permalink
Plus, if Robin says she doesn’t have any emotions, how come she has the love emotion? Hmm?
Robin 3:21 pm on May 20, 2012 Permalink
It’s slightly humourous to see you guys run around in these conversations.
Her Magesty, Agent Lady Estelle 3:22 pm on May 20, 2012 Permalink
I’m too much of a grammar freak for my own good. (Watch me mess up in that sentence…..)
Agent SD 2:30 pm on May 21, 2012 Permalink
Because it was the only emotion programmed into her?
violinplayer10101 3:06 pm on May 20, 2012 Permalink |
That’s cool…I hope you feel better, Tori!
Agent SD 2:12 pm on May 21, 2012 Permalink |
Sorry to hear, Tori.
*hugs* Hope everything smoothes out for you soon.
Zorganoth 11:56 pm on May 21, 2012 Permalink |
