Thank you very much for the !!

A very belated thank you for the on my sonnet last December; and my deepest apologies for having taken so long to respond.

I've tried pursuing happiness. Happiness sought a restraining order.

YEAH!!! I'm honored to be the first!!

it can get a little uncomfortable with 100% humidity and 98 degree weather, but I'm used to it. In fact, I'm more than ready for this dry chilly weather to end and summer to begin!

lol, while I do lose something like 10 lbs. of sweat a day out at the barn, I've never fallen off because of it! There's plenty of shade out here and it's fun to ride through water on a hot summer day!!

Lol, I can say the same thing about your winters as you do my summers! It snowed ONCE here and for about 30 minutes, none of it sticking, just little, barely visible flakes, and the whole city got excited! we don't get cold here...we think 40 degrees is cold!!

Ugh...I won't even go into it. I tend to get a wee bit cynical when I do... >.<

Oh dear, looks at lamps, this is gonna get REAL messy... FIRE IN THE HOLE!! TAKE COVER MEN!!! ~dives down~

Why hello thar Republican 8D! I salute you for indeed being the first Republican I've come across XD!
Never been in Texas, but it seems uncomfortably hot in the summers . Don't you fall off your horse sweating to death when you go out for a ride in the summers? (I'm not much of an equestrian... I sit on a horse with the elegance of a mashed potato sack ...)

I still can't believe they blew through so much money to build a stupid stadium they probably won't be using ever again, not to mention all those people getting chased off the land

Frag grenades! And grenades! And the burned out lightbulbs can play the part of flash bangs 8D! Whoohoo! Man, that civil war of inanimate objects of yours would be awesome to witness 8D!

"Ok, all my half-goth friends...which one of you knows sign language?"

Yup, Austin is in Texas. its the state capital and home of the University of Texas... considering that Austin is mostly Democrat and the biggest rivals to UT is Texas A&M University... well, I guess that makes me the first Aggie and the first Republican you've talked to!! (btw, I don't particularly like Austin too much...I'm too much of a horse-girl XD)

sounds like that stadium China built for the Olympics..."degradable"

plenty of ammo then! XD my little collection of coke tabs have suddenly turned into shrapnel...and my rock collection into grenades! >.<

"If Joan of Arc could turn the tide of an entire war before her 18th birthday, you can get out of bed in the mornings!"

Well, grab a random goth and half an Abby plus half an Abby equals one Abby in two persons!

I think you're the second Texan I've ever talked to (if Austin is in Texas that is), but if you're Republican and not a Democrat, you can have the honor of being the first Republican I've talked to 8D!

"100% biodegradable product. (Made in China)" XD;;

Paper can be cannonfodder 8D!

Muckity muckity muck mucky muck muck Mucking about through life!

I can't find a director...none of them, nor a Gibbs. I might know a half-Abby. She aint goth though...

XP. lol, well, since you get the honors of being the first Dutch person I've ever talked to, am I the first Texan you've ever talked to? (lol, just curious!)

"No animals were harmed in the making of this product but some trees were slightly inconvenienced"

WWIII in objects form... Epic battle right here!

"If Joan of Arc could turn the tide of an entire war before her 18th birthday, you can get out of bed in the mornings!"

OMG! A McGee even! ! Don't suppose you have an actual full cast, complete with victims etc? :3

XD Nah, the Dutch are like, not even 1% of the world population . So it's not that odd I'd be the first Dutch you talk to XD.

Yes, that might be true... But you'll see... They'll say something along the lines of 'it's still more environmentally friendly than your factory-made grenades! These were GROWN by NATURE!' or something... (Yeah, I think Greenpeace people are wack XD)

Oooh ! You better start shooting some exclusive, I-was-there shots! They may even triple the offer if you have original footage FROM THAT TIME 8D!

Muckity muckity muck mucky muck muck Mucking about through life!

actually...yes. She does remind me of Ziva. Cept, she's hispanic and gets all her english words right, but she's all kick-ass...oh shit, I even know a McGee!!!!!

I have to admit...you're the first Dutch person I've ever talked to! that bad?

nah, they'll complain about the CO2 that's emitted in the process!

the way things are looking on the front lines...a lot!!

--
"If Joan of Arc could turn the tide of an entire war before her 18th birthday, you can get out of bed in the mornings!"

Only is there is a Zhiva around as well

Of course they do that first silly ! Don't you know anything about Dutch people? They're so stingy, they make Scrooge look positively charitable 8p!

... mmm... Natural explosive devices! I guess now Greenpeace too can have environmentally friendly grenades !

Wow! That would be documentary worthy . I wonder how much NGC or Discovery would bid on that...

--
Muckity muckity muck mucky muck muck Mucking about through life!

and a little scary...

at least tell me they took the ornaments off first!

get 'em hot enough and they go popping off! pine trees suck when they burn cuz of all the sparks. plus they're sappy trees so if it gets really hot the whole damn thing will explode!

lol, nature has its darker side, that's for sure!

tried it...they got rather rebellious. I almost had a revolution on my hands.

--
"If Joan of Arc could turn the tide of an entire war before her 18th birthday, you can get out of bed in the mornings!"

XD That is too awesome !

They light them trees because they're too stingy to pay for it to be hauled away 8p. So if they just burn it, no one can tell whose tree it was XD!
Srsly? Do pinecones do that??? O_O Holy crap! And I thought nature was all tranquility and all o_o...

Well, you can always instate a dictatorship and rule with an iron fist 8D... At least, that's what I would do, but I'm mean like that 83.

Muckity muckity muck mucky muck muck Mucking about through life!

oh yeah, we're cool!! Ah Dinozzo...lol, I know a kid EXACTLY like him, looks like him, acts like him, same jokes, same goofy nut-head.

lol, happens year round (fortunately not a regular basis ) new years or not. why would you light a christmas tree...? Never mind...I don't want to know. Pine trees go up like fireworks and if they have pinecones, they become little mini bombs.

it reminds me of one of those animated things where the things on the artist's desk go bananas! Hopefully it will be the objects that like me!! ~or I'm in biiiiig trouble~

--
"If Joan of Arc could turn the tide of an entire war before her 18th birthday, you can get out of bed in the mornings!"

NCIS is the bomb 83! You earn a couple of points on the cool meter !

Yeah, it's what you get not so long after new year bonfires and vandalism . We've had a lot of problems because of stupid people setting their christmas trees and assorted shit on fire .

Wow! Revolt of the inanimate objects! Viva la revolucion! 8D I root for whoever wins 8p!

--
Muckity muckity muck mucky muck muck Mucking about through life!

On it!! Got your six, boss! ~dashes off~
(I've been watching waaaaaaay too much NCIS...)

good grief it sounds like everyone in your area are pyrophobes!! (at least I think its pyrophobic...) but goodness! most people here won't really notice anything is burning unless A.) it's a 6 alarm fire involving apartment buildings or B.) the fire is spewing a black smoke cloud about half a mile wide that's visible from 10 miles away. then you see people rushing over with marshmallows on a stick.

it's great! I have an army of stuff that likes me as well (first among those is duct tape! ) so there's practically a civil war of the inanimate objects in my room.

"If Joan of Arc could turn the tide of an entire war before her 18th birthday, you can get out of bed in the mornings!"

The word is spreading like a virus! Quick! You too must do your part in making awesomesauce the word of the year 8D!

In a more foresty area that would be plausible, but we have mediocre cleaning people from the government to take care of that . Won't fly I'm afraid .

Ah... don't you just love it when inanimate objects fear you? >83

--
Muckity muckity muck mucky muck muck Mucking about through life!

lol, one of my friends actually said awesomesauce today! As soon as she said it I broke down laughing and, for the life of her, she couldn't figure out why!

hmmmm... oh! that you're, ummm...clearing out dead brush?

that'll make it sweat!!

--
"If Joan of Arc could turn the tide of an entire war before her 18th birthday, you can get out of bed in the mornings!"

But I want the words to catch on! That's more fun ! And then you suddenly hear other people say things like 'awesomesauce', ' piccamatchures' or 'zen-packing' and you can be all proud for coming up with that :3.

Burning down neighbour's houses is definitely a no-no over here . But I don't know how to BBQ ! What do I tell them then?

Works best if you say it in a very casual, matter of fact way . And then you go about rummaging for some matches and muttering about needing something to feed a small fires ...

--
Muckity muckity muck mucky muck muck Mucking about through life!

lol, but that's the fun part! you get to confuse people with brand new words.

I guess it's legal here...as long as you don't set your neighbor's house on fire that is! if anyone ever asks, its a damn big BBQ!!

I should...yes, that will work very well. ~Oh thesaaaaaaaaurus!!!

--
"If Joan of Arc could turn the tide of an entire war before her 18th birthday, you can get out of bed in the mornings!"

You betcha! Most of them don't seem to catch on though .

Wow, a bonfire... That is hilarious ! Man, I wish I could do that, but the laws... THE LAWS!!! D8<!
Maybe you should drop your thesaurus some hints, like "wow, your predecessor burned very well (¬w¬ )/"?

--
Muckity muckity muck mucky muck muck Mucking about through life!

heh heh, it's fun making up words!

I did assassinate the last thesaurus using a bonfire, but this one...its giving me trouble of a different kind ~glares at thesaurus~ till it decides to behave, I'll use the prompts I yanked.

--
"If Joan of Arc could turn the tide of an entire war before her 18th birthday, you can get out of bed in the mornings!"

Don't ask me where that comes from... it snuck into my vocabulary at some point . You could beat the thesaurus up, Assassin-style!... But as it is an inanimate object, this may have an adverse effect on the usefulness of the object in question (._.)\.

--
Muckity muckity muck mucky muck muck Mucking about through life!

thank you very much!! lol, awesomesauce, i like that word! I got more prompts on the workbench seeing as how my thesaurus isn't being so nice to me right now...>.<

--
"If Joan of Arc could turn the tide of an entire war before her 18th birthday, you can get out of bed in the mornings!"

Awesomesauce there! (I read it just now. This one was a lot happier . And it fit into 'test' quite well. Keep them coming :3!)
