Probably Stuck Between Dimensions
(Yes, I know this place is back. No, I don't plan on returning; I just don't fit in with the whole "4chan vibe", as I heard it described recently. Anyway, if anyone wants to keep in touch, catch TryshaGray on Twitter. Otherwise, have fun, and keep it pony.)
Not all ponies miss out on all that Princess Luna has put together for her show after she brings out the moon! Me? I do some of my best work and spell-weaving when the stars come out. Besides, I tend to be the sort to keep to myself, a lot of the time. Lately, I've found I'm a lot more of a "Twilight Sparkle" person, though some still say I have a very "Fluttershy" personality, right down to being more likely to talk to your critter companions than you, at first. It takes me a little while, but if I don't get too badly spooked, I'll open up. And if you see me suddenly pop out of a moon portal, or catch my eye hovering in the sky as I try to find someone or something I've lost again . . . sorry about that. I really try not to startle people too much with this stuff. It's just so cool, though!

@twilightdashjack Yay, welcome to RDN! :) And, yes, Twilight Sparkle is pretty awesome. :)
-
@madflavors Apparently, it's army. The shirt is actually navy-styled, as contrasted to the other one of Spitfire laying out on an artillery barrel, where she's wearing a bomber jacket (Some may consider #NSFW: http://www.canterlot.com/gallery/image/1094-join-the-rea/). Note the artist's comments here: http://www.canterlot.com/gallery/image/1129-spitfire-pinup-two/

@madflavors @miloth I believe it's Royal Equestrian Army.
-
@nlghtmaremoon Awww! I've always said that you were simply misunderstood. :)
-
@nlghtmaremoon Somewhat, though a relatively benign one, I think.
-
@tj Hello, and welcome to RDN! :)
-
@scribus I've pretty much stopped shopping at the Fry's near me due to their bait-and-switch games like that. :( A shame, since they used to sometimes have really good deals.
-
@lilytheamazingfaintingpony I think @nlghtmaremoon was referring to the belief that your name looks like it's spoken very quickly (i.e. while hyped up on a sugar rush). But I could be mistaken. How IS the advent calendar going, though? :)
-
@seanthebluesheep You rock! Woohoo! Now we know why your picture is the Victory statue (though the statue is, sadly, lacking her own 87% hat). :D
-
@seanthebluesheep That settles it. Unless you can find the 87% hat, go with the music. Your hat needs to be at least 84% awesome, or it won't be 20% cooler. *nods as if that makes perfect sense*
-
@spectraflare Yay! Welcome to RDN. :)
-
@pinhooves Yay! That much IS good. :)
-
@pinhooves Ewww, eight hours on Christmas Eve. And, absolutely, it's a fine job, but that's still brutal. Been there, done that, and felt the relief when the crowd was locked out and the store closed.
-
@pinhooves Well, sort of figured that. The last few days before Christmas tend to be all hands on deck in retail and grocery. But eight hours both, or half-day on Saturday and they close the store early, or . . . ? Any little glimmer of relief?
-
@pinhooves Yes, I can imagine it does. How's your work schedule looking between now and Sunday?
-
@pinhooves Awww! Sorry to hear you had a bad feet day there. :( All part of the insane last-minute Christmas feast shopping rush, running you ragged there?
-
@nlghtmaremoon I certainly understand how that goes. Hello to you, too! :)
-
@fallinwinter HUZZAH! About time! I, for one, welcome the eternal night of our new mighty Empress Nightmare M-- Oh, you're kidding. Er . . . I mean . . . Well, so was I! Ha! Ha ha! Bad Nightmare Moon! Baaaad Nightmare Moon! No cookie. *cough*
-
@yodelerty Thanks! I'm feeling a little spacey, though. ;) Hope the rest of your day goes well!
-
@shydash Eep! It does! Yay! I approve. :D
-
Happy Longest Night! #neverenoughluna
-
@dezzierose , you are SO random . . .
-
@pinhooves Hello, there! :) Going well enough, thank you! How are you doing, aside from laundry struggles?
-
@ceruleanspark Ohhh, that does sound like a little slice of Heaven there, all right. Any ill effects from the food would be countered by the benefits of lowered stress levels from petting a small herd of kitty cats. It's scientifically proven by someone, I'm sure.
-
This is huge (by virtue of the fact that the worlds found aren't). http://www.space.com/13990-2-earth-size-alien-planets-kepler-smallest-worlds.html These worlds won't sustain life as we'd be able to identify it, but it brings us a lot closer to being able to find worlds that could. (And -- in the interest of keeping things on-topic -- if we find Equestria out there, I swear, I am buying a surplus Russian space suit and Soyuz craft, and developing an FTL drive using three million agitated 2-liter bottles of Sprite.)
-
@ceruleanspark Yay, sounds like a lot of fun! :) And I'm managing all right, all told! Work is work, life is a little crazy with holiday and volunteer stuff, so it's about normal, for this time of year. :)
