Thread: And What Alice Found There

It is a very inconvenient habit of kittens Alice had once made the remark that whatever you say to them, they always purr. - Through the Looking Glass So, I've been hesitant about actually making a 'journal' here on Blue Moon. The whole idea seemed a little ludicrous at first, since I'm hesitant about spilling my real world ramblings out on to the internet, but I figured, what the hell. It gives me a place to bitch and think, since I seem to organize my thoughts better when I type, all the while giving some people insight in to... well, me. As you could probably tell already, I'm a bit of a quote and lyric freak. There always seems to be one that describes how you are feeling, what you are thinking, or in the instances above things that happened that day. I think I might make it a staple of this thing. Anyways, today was a good day and besides feeling sleepy and unmotivated, reminded me why I mostly love my life. Today, Ariana had her Fairytale play at school. Normally, the last thing I want to do after getting only thirty minutes of sleep over more than a twenty-four hour period is get up and go deal with kids. I couldn't miss my Cat in Hey Diddle Diddle. Her only line was meow meow and paw at a cardboard fiddle that looked more like a guitar. It was still cute though. It does remind me, however, all the hell I'm going to have to go through next week when her dance recital comes around. So, we got home and after awhile I laid down to take a nap. Naki, our youngest kitty intruder, was curled up under the covers happily. This isn't weird for her. She always gets under the covers if I'm in the bed since I shoo her away from sitting on my lap if I'm on my compie. However, she curled up under there last night, was still content there this morning, and hadn't moved from under the blankets when I laid down. I acquiesced to her persistence and took my nap curled up in to ball. I'd stretch out in my sleep, only to feel her bite my toes, bringing me back to fetal position. I awoke, hours later, with a kitten crawling up my leg. o.o I knew she was pregnant, but she had been for a really long time for a cat. We had talked about taking her to vet, since when we found her, she near death, covered in fleas, and malnourished. We didn't get her fixed quick enough and she got out of the house. You know what happened next. I was worried that something happened and she just wasn't, or couldn't, have the kittens. Four orange tabbies. Just like their mom. Hopefully there will be a female in there. They're supposed to be uncommon to rare, but we'll see. Keeping in the family tradition, they were all named after demons. My cat Akasha was named after the infamous Vampire and her nickname, Kasha, is also a demonic cat in Japanese folklore. Naki is short for Anunnaki who are the seven judges of hell in Mesopotamian cultures. Anyways, going off topic. So Amon, Bael, Charun, and Daeva are going to be part of the house for awhile. Their birth brought up a few of the most dreaded topics for parents. Ariana already knew where babies really live and how they come out. She didn't know how they were made. She knew that girls have breasts, and both sexes have nipples but she didn't know what they were for. I about laughed my ass off when she asked if daddies made milk too. With my other forums dead, I got to play more on here. I fixed up some issues in my Request Thread. Got tired of people asking about canon characters, so I stuck that in there. Came up with a system to keep my RPs from getting crazy, insanely unorganized and put a place up for future plots. That being said, this idea I had years ago that I revisited to try to work in to a plot device on here is beating me in the head again to become a full blown story of its own. I figure I might test out interest here, and see if it is something that would actually stand alone well on its own and go from there. It doesn't help that I was helping my friend with his short story collection and got to reading it. It sucks when you have all these ideas in your head, but can't get them out in to something better. A lot of people have gotten to the point of when I bounce an idea off them that I have for a story, they tell me to put up or shut up. So now, off I go to work on that. xD
