ickaimpDid some more work on the Hakuba in Handcuffs fic, about 2k worth, then had to stop because I was laughing too hard to type. ^^;; Not gonna post it, so neener neener neener. ^__^
Spent the evening with my youngest sister, the Brat. She's having boy troubles, so had much fun trying to keep her from punching somone's lights out. (wasn't hard, distract her with caffine and is all good) We went down to Hermosa Pier and wandered around. *shudders* Do NOT like large bodies of salt water, gives me the willies. Met a nice couple from Montana who were wandering around, and had an interesting discussion on stars and constilations, so that was cool at least.
Found it interesting when we stopped by a music store on the way home, I usually wear one of my grandparents leather hunting bags when wandering around, which have between 2-3 dagger seaths built into them. I carry fans or pencils them, but the disscussion turned to knives, and the sales people were surprised to discover that I do carry a pocketknife with me. Is at the bottom of my bag, but I do carry one.
For one thing, they're dang useful.
Never can understand it, you see guys carrying around pocket knives or swiss army knives and no one thinks twice. 'Oh, the guy has a knife', and it's no big deal. I pull out a knife, for the same reasons guys use them and it's 'Oh, the girl has a weapon!' and they freak.
... am I missing something? *puzzled*
Oh, yes... 'Neechan...
"Chopped cabbage - not just a good idea... it's THE SLAW."
think Zoro.

Well....
Date: 2003-08-03 05:19 pm (UTC)Let me know what you think.
PS....I WANT TO SEE THE HANDCUFF FIC! Or I will write a nice long dedication for the takoyaki fic....all about you.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAAH! (gasp wheeze cough) Stupid asthma.
no subject
Date: 2003-08-04 02:35 am (UTC)Yes, of course. You're missing something. And you also have something, well two to be exact, extra.
*coughs* Sorry...am not in the best moods right now...but I love weapons. Don't carry them myself, but love them. Am comtemplating a gun in the future...
Knives....
Date: 2003-08-04 06:06 am (UTC)**laughs** I once came to the horrific realization as I was heading into an airport to pick up a friend that I had a 6" non-folding fishing-knife in my purse; all I had to do was try to get through the metal-detectors with THAT, and I'd be toast. Had to trek all the way back out to the parking lot and hide it under the car-seat. And no, I hadn't been carrying it for reasons of urban safety or anything-- I had been hiking the day before.
Hakuba? Handcuffs? Wanna READ!! Pleeeeeeease??? C'mon! BegBegBegBeg... shame? me? What shame? Am in the edit-phase of WF13; it should be posted either tomorrow or the next day. Gods, it's huge-- over 25,000 words! And I *bet* the last line's gonna make some people worry..... ^__^
knifes
Date: 2003-08-04 01:10 pm (UTC)... I could make a comment about boys and their phallic objects, 'Neechan, but I'm gonna stay quiet on that one.
Alright, alright, I'll set it up so that 'Neechan, Ann, Ysabet and Mel can see the Handcuff fic on the LJ, but you'll have to logged in. Fair enough?
*mutter* *mutter* TENTACLES! *mutter* *mutter* Does not help that there's a discussion on the OPYaoi ML about bored animators being yaoi fans and throwing stuff in, such as Sanji and a Squid, which I don't have yet.
Yes, I am Little Squid, Shut Up.
Not so much of a gun person as a knife person, Tina. But the history of them is interesting. But daggers and throwing knives? Oooo... I am SO there. *droools* Weapons and their uses are interesting, especially the older ones.
No worry about bad moods, know how that goes! ((GLOMPS!))
Ysabet: Knifes really are useful tool ^_^
First thing Dad asked as he picked us up to go to the airport for my first trip to Japan was that I "had left my knives at home, right?" ¬_¬
Must get you addicted to One Piece too. Is the only anime I know where the main characters have nailed others not once, but twice in the balls. Nami in the first episode, and then later Luffy, when someone's not paying attention to him.
... and I'm rambling. Not awake. Sorry.
((GLOMPS everyone))
-ICKA! the IMP
