@Shadow: Aw, thanks. You're too sweet. I'm starting to think you are that cute bunny rabbit you just posted
Aww. =3 When my kitten army takes over the world, you shall indeed be spared.
I see myself in the same way. :/ Maybe it's because we have a harder time seeing ourselves objectively when we know what we're thinking and what motivates us. And, since we have a hard time reconciling that, we then see ourselves in a purely negative/selfish/whatever light. The thing is, if we really were the way we saw ourselves, we probably would never see ourselves that way. Most of the truly selfish people I know felt they deserved all the stuff they were taking; same for other types of people. A lot of good people don't see themselves as good. They look at what they've done and think "I should have done this", "I should have helped this person more", "I need to do more for everyone" and don't see that what they've already done has done so much good.
To get back on point, I think we just need to look at ourselves more clearly. If we feel we need to change, we should work toward that change (change only happens if you want it, after all), and, most importantly, be open minded. =) *believes that one should never stop improving oneself and that they should never stop learning, especially from their mistakes*
Sorry if that was rambling. ._. Just my thoughts on it. *hides*

I can give some feedback if you like? You make time for the important things in life, right?
What you said makes a lot of sense. But sometimes its hard to get up and help someone, do something or change something about you don't know what motivates you.
There is no need to apologize. Your thoughts are really appreciated

From what I've been able to glean so far, there is very little on the mainstream market out there that covers disabilities in a fun way - it's all semi-biographical, factual, patronising and downright boring if I'm honest.
One mum I spoke to said she really wanted something superhero or alien related to get her younger son to read and understand his older brother's issues - the only superhero one out there is a whopping $15 and no disabled family I know has got money to burn like that.
I like the idea of creating something that's relevant to a little boy's interests - for the aforementioned mum, it's superheroes. For Josh, say, it's dinosaurs or something gross involving poop (so he'd be well in the market for a smearing story - mercifully Jake hasn't started that phase yet)
But yeah, once I can get something down some feedback would be great - plus if you have any input of your own from your own experiences that would be cool too. The more people I can speak to, the bigger the picture and the more common themes I can draw from.

Just use it to your advantage like I do.

I tried that once and something really bad happened because of it.

Well, I try not to overuse it. It's only when absolutely necessary.

Joss Whedon was getting attacked by those idiots who said he was misogynistic in one scene with Black Widow in Age of Ultron.
Minor spoiler alert: It was a scene where Scarlet Witch hexed her making her live out some terrible memories. And it made her sad, so she reached out for reassurance from a friend, who happened to be a man.
Because women are not ever allowed to get sad and seek comfort in their friends. :facepalm:

Oh god...these people are clearly unaware that Joss Whedon likes to write strong female characters, then. And yeah, agreed; just like the ridiculous expectations society has for men, the same can be said for women.

Happened to catch Supernatural. The Hanzel and the witch episode. That kid has got to be a fan of the show. He was way too good as Dean. I actually worried at one point that they'd keep him to replace Jensen.
Which I wouldn't have minded since teen-Dean and adult-Sam would've been verrrrrrry entertaining.
But my eye candy!
I luv my eye candy too much.
+ ugh Vampire diaries is on. I want to slap Stefan every time he wears that stupid jacket. Dude YOU'RE NOT ELVIS put the bloody collar down! It kills my OCD. Just FIX it dammit!
And why is Elena now wearing Katherine's hairstyle? Grrr.
Ian is still so disappointing.
The only entertainment value vd has left for me is watching it on mute and doing the vo with hubby.
Since he's not here and it's past midnight, good excuse to go to sleep now.

Stuff like this is why I'm glad I don't still watch the show. I'm not as big a fan of the series as I used to be (considering the most recent books) but still...it's like watching someone artfully murder an ex-love. :'( (On a side note, the muting and then doing a voice over thing is what mum and I do for silent movies. XD)

Well...hopefully what writing I managed last night hold up. I guess I can post now.
+ I wonder when we're going to the post office. She said she'd help me mail it all out and it's seriously across the street. :/

The weather seems to be stuck in a state of transition--the rain will probably start when I go to pick Aurora up. Wouldn't be the first time it waited.
Not that I mind; I like the smell of rain.

Kinda thinking about posting a second chapter today because it's the last one I have fully edited and I lack any degree of patience. Also thinking about pizza because pizza is good and I've somehow lost five pounds. ._.
+ Mum just started Alien Isolation and I'm terrified.
