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!

@leonkfox Yes, if you want nasty, try the American non-throwback variety. High-fructose corn syrup FTL! :p Used to drink it a lot in college, because, as nasty as it was, coffee tasted even worse to me. (Thankfully, I've since discovered mochas, and also drastically toned down my caffeine intake in general.)
-
@thelastgherkin For what it's worth . . . *hug* I hope things calm down and get better for you soon. Don't let the idiots get you down.
-
@zach121k I think he was already on the brink, and you were just the wrong pony in the wrong place making the wrong joke at the wrong time.
-
@ceruleanspark Oh, yes, definitely. :) I don't make them often -- I tend to try to avoid pizzas, most of the time, since they are very bad on my figure, but sometimes I just can't help myself -- but the ones you make yourself are soooo much better than any chain shop (if I do say so, myself). About the only ones I've found that compare are a handful of mom-n-pop pizza shop places I've found over the years.
-
@ceruleanspark Welcome back! :) And I hope that homemade pizza becomes a harbinger of a good weekend ahead. Sure sounds yummy!
-
@lightningcrash Thank you for the wish for pony dreams. (And I have memory issues, too. The "In Context" link helps a lot with that.)
-
@mrdragon Ugh! Well, if you have extreme sleep deprivation, at least it's peaceful extreme sleep deprivation? :)
-
@leonkfox Aw, that was nice of them to set that up. I guess that they learned from the ridiculousness at the New York store. (People tried to set up memorials, but the store employees kept taking them down. Escalated to someone getting ticked, and writing it directly on the wall.)
-
@ceruleanspark Aw! Sorry to hear that your day didn't go so well, there. :(
-
@mrdragon I remember when I used to be able to do that. Anyway, I hope that you get some solid sleep soon!
-
@lightningcrash Aw, thank you very much! Sadly, pony dreams were pre-empted again with what I can only describe as an artsy dark comedy. Maybe next time. :)
-
@mrdragon Thank you! Stay well and have fun. :)
-
@ceruleanspark Ohhhh, it has been forever since I've done strawberry milk! *drool* Yes, you totally should! Anyway, I'm talking in my sleep to you right now, so I think I should turn over and get to dreaming. :) Stay well, and hopefully catch you another time when I'm a bit more awake.
-
@ceruleanspark Oh, no, mine's an "old" white 13" Macbook from 2007. The dimensions do look a bit off, though, as my screen is 1280 x 800, and the picture is 1200 x 800, according to Preview, but, as they say, "Close enough for government work." As for chocolate milk, yes, that's pretty much the same here. I like it, but it's not something that I usually keep stocked. Nice that they had it available on the lunch van for you, though! Now you've got me craving. Might have to hunt some down this weekend.
-
@mrdragon Yes, I had trouble sleeping, so sat down, made a few plans on how to possibly get things back in order, played around with a game or two -- Rovio, I both bless and curse you for Angry Birds -- and I think that I'm ready to get back to sleep. Yay! *snore*
-
@ceruleanspark Awww, that was really nice! Might have to try that out on mine, just for giggles. But, yes, it does sound like you're having a pretty nice post-birthday, there. Really glad to hear that. As for chocolate milk, any particular reason for the long gap there, or just never really had cause to do it? I think it's been a few years for me, too, so I may have to do it again, just because. I wonder if the Fountain of Youth is actually filled with it.
-
@ceruleanspark If I were a bit more awake, I probably would be D'awwwww-ing up a storm right now. Alas, I'll likely be slinking back to bed soon. Doing all right, otherwise, which is an improvement over the rest of this very stressful week that is, thankfully, drawing to a close. And how are you doing, aside from enduring cuteness overload? :)
-
@ceruleanspark Awww, that IS really cute! :)
-
@lpfan4ever *hug* I'm very sorry for your loss. :( Will keep you and your family in my prayers here.
-
@princessluna I know, I'm very late, but ... *wavewavewave* Hello! And really looking forward to the Halloween episode, too! :)
-
@remembernovember Heh! All right, now that's cute. :)
-
@thatonepony And he'd stepped down as CEO a few weeks ago as well.
-
@tenmihara Complications of pancreatic cancer, I believe.
-
@remembernovember Studies also show that, if you show an utter lack of respect for other living beings, it tends to alienate you after a while.
-
@leonkfox I like Apple -- I use Macs at home -- but haven't thought much of Steve Jobs' tactics of late, and I know that he was a control freak and a nightmare to work with. But he was also a visionary, his impact on the world is undeniable, and I'd argue that he has left the world a better place, and I respect the heck out of him for it. May he rest in peace.
-
@remembernovember Wow. I'm sorry, I know you think you're being a cool, funny troll, but you just reached new levels of pathetic, there.
