TPBM
Nope, but I did just turn in all my work that I missed on Friday! That should bring up my grade from a D XPTPBM is failing half their classes.
Did I just read that? I assumed you were making high grades. (I suppose one alway assumes.) Kat, you’re so bright, so talented, I can’t even imagine such a thing.TPBM wishes he/she didn’t love books but loved instead to read.
I'm only failing them 'cause I keep missing. And I don't do well on tests.Uhm. I love books and I love to read. so.....
TPBM wants a room filled with books.
Yes!TPBM loves to write.
Yes!TPBM is aspiring to read every book they can.
Yes! (How much I’ll actually end up reading may be a different matter.)TPBM has an inner world that sometimes seems vivid and real.
No, I've got five started, so no problem.TPBM is enjoying Greek roast lamb with lemon-roasted potatoes!
I can only wish!TPBM likes characters that are a little bit mysterious.
Yes :DTPBM wants to date a mysterious movie star :D
OMG No!TPBM likes to remain behind the scenes and let others get the tomatoes in the face.
I’ll risk the tomatoes for Sandrine Bonnaire.TPBM thinks that a cold night, a private library, the taste of sherryh, and an intriguing old book all go together nicely.
Actually, these do sound particularly suited to one another, much like cinnamon and apple. All that's missing is something to nosh on.@ Al 3065, no, not mine. My wife's coming up in a little over a week.
TPBM has made an angel food cake from scratch.
LoL! Well, as a matter of fact Guy is wanting to rant in popcorn style in the writing, art meaning thread. But I keep getting distracted.TPBM is listening to/watching the live performance production of Steve Reich's Drumming. [Note that this TPBM has once again incorporated Guy's fixation on counting because counting the beat is important in this piece which has a 12/8 time signature and a moving rhythm.]
LoL! Indie mood, eh? LoL! Did you give Mason Rack Band a try? Excellent musicianship, albeit pretty straight rock. Define fixation! And don't refer to my fushigi thing. Okay, just to give you an idea, one of my favourite movies is the rather terrible Electra, most likely because Electra has a counting OCD.
No to the phantom teeth pains.
TPBM has a sore arm from too much typing.
Yep. I was typing a school paper. My teacher gave us an eight paragraph assignment to do over the weekend. It's not actually that much, even for middle school, but it's like a perpetual-motion machine: Whenever I write something, it needs editing, and then once I'm done editing, there's more to write, and then that needs editing...TPBM is a little frustrated by not being able to wrap up a measly eight-paragraph assignment.
I hate writing assignments, so if I had one regardless of length I would be more than a little frustrated by it.TPBM eats, loves, practically lives for any kind of pork?
Uh... no. I do like pork, though...TPBM could really use some chocolate right about now...
Now or any other time.TPBM thinks it might be fun to go up in the Eiffel Tower and see the view.
No, I am scared of heights :D I would rather watch people fall off.TPBM loves "Marry Poppins"? Or at least enjoys it?
I do now :DTPBM is heading off to bed and won't be awake to see who replies?
Not at all. Al, what is it with you and your head?!TPBM finds that tea helps soften the edges of a nasty headache.
Actually, I did until I came and visited the WSS. Twas a rough weekend, which was a waste of a beautiful day.TPBM gets cheered up watching Capra screw-ball comedies.
I'm okay now, but getting one is never unwanted and always feels good.TPBM finished reading a book this weekend that felt too good to end.
No. I didn't finish the last book I started, it was rubbish.TPBM has a big backyard.
not now. at home I do.TPBM has a dog.
Not anymore.TPBM has to write 3000 words today.
I have a mountainside as my back yard, so yes, I suppose you could say that :DTPBM is looking froward to this fresh week.
Is it this week already?TPBM is completely caught up on chores.
Nope, work is taking up my time right now. Of course, work kind of feels like a chore some times. So...TPBM enjoys their job and wakes in the morning excited at what it will bring.
I wish the person above could magically be happy, whether she has a good reason to be or not.TPBM loves to work in the yard!
Yes, I just came in from the garden in fact. It is such a beautiful day here!TPBM every now and again indulges in a good gloat?
Not anymore. Today's gloat is tomorrow's goat.TPBM has fed goats by hand.
Well I already answered that, but pleasant company is always welcome :DTPBM makes their own tortillas?
It's been a while but I have at least made them a couple of times.TPBM feels they are going to have an interesting day today.

TPBM is having a major change this coming year
Not that I know about, but I love surprises!TPBM prefers to let other people be stressed for them?
