This all started on twitter.  I TJ'd a message that PixieVamp sent, congratulating her on her hubby's R&R this summer.   At the same time, mine will be preparing to deploy for the 4th time in his 6 years in the Army.  She suggested a support group and since I believe it's still FFA time (correct me if I'm wrong, I'm in Germany after all), I thought it could possibly be opened up to everyone else that is a military spouse. 

What do you all think?    I honestly think it's a great idea and might help making things a little bit easier during the tough times.

Edit:  This is for any and everyone that has someone that's deployed, whether you're a spouse, fiance, girlfriend (or boyfriend even!), sibling, relation, whatever.  And doesn't have to be military either, as there are others that are deployed that are civilians as well (sorry...I let my FRG  leader part of me go running ahead of this all gung-ho.)

Wolvesnvamps Edit: Please feel free to post anything about this group at anytime.

Bill wants to know what Sookie is.

I want to know. Are you a...

1. Stay at Home Mom ( That's me )
2. Working Mom
3. Single Mom
4. Married no kids
5. Single and loving it. (I miss those days sometimes *sigh*)
6. Dating/engaged and Happy

Tell me about yourself and post pictures if you dare.

 Edit: Please no mommy wars in this post. I hate those. Feminism for me is the ability to choose what you want to be and being happy about it.

Hello everyone! I hope your day is going well :)

This month is National Poetry Month and I want to celebrate.

I LOVE to read poetry and write some that will never see the light of day.

Feel free to post your favorite poems or lines from poems or talk about your favorite authors or whatever.

I'm going to put my favorite poem in the comments :)

Edited to add sexy:

CONTROVERSY!

But not in fandom. I want to talk about it in the context of your real lives. 

Have you ever done anything/said anything/participated in anything considered to be controversial? Was there any fallout? Was it worth it? Who did it bother? Do you still feel the same way, now that it’s over? I’ll put mine in comments just to start things off.

When I first saw this clip, I thought of the Forest. I can see Edward and Jasper having a similar conversation. 

THERE WERE SOME SRS QUESTIONS ASKED LAST WEEK ON MY FIRST ASK A BEANER POST. SO I THOIGHT, "WHY NOT DO IT AGAIN."

Ask me anything, I donut care. Im just bored and want to be entertained.

ALSO THIS MUSIC VIDEO IS THE BEST THING EVER. Even though Rosario is Columbain, SHE MAKES MY LIFE. 

AND NO CRACKING CHOLA JOKES. IM LOOKING AT YOU oHALE.

EDIT: VIDEO FIXED

Me and my roommate always seem to be on opposing sides--I'm Edward, she's Team Jacob; she's Team Damon, Ilike them both for different reasons, but if I was looking for a meaningful relationship I would go for Stefan (I'd go to Damon for hot angsty loveless vampire sex). We both like Dean and Sam, but our our preferences gravitate in opposite directions (I have a slight preference of Sam over Dean and she's the opposite). Even beyond guys, we rarely ever see things the same way.

Do any of you have a friend that it seems you're never on the same side of an issue? Also, who do you prefer from the pics above? =)

 THIS TUESDAY PEOPLE!

GLEE RETURNS.

I AM SUPER EXTRA EXCITED.

MOSTLY BECAUSE OF THIS VIDEO (THANX MANDY, DEAR)

AND THESE PICTURES

KURT DOING GAGA

CAN WE SAY..................................................................................EPIC?!?!

(omg ignore me i get goofy when i'm tired)

Oh and lettuce discuss how hot this vid is 

(unf...the flower scene from 40 Days and 40 Nights <3)

Hey everybody!!!!

I just spent an AWESOME night celebrating 2 of my friends birthdays.

I've had something called a ZOMBIE, which tasted like they mixed rum and tequila. It was gross, and I'm pretty sure I couldn't feel my feet after I drank it.

Since then, I've had a hella expensive glass of cabernet, and 3 of these:

YUM

But anyway, this is a Friday Night Drunk Post.

I want drunk Edward/Bella/Jasper/whotheheckever fics. As long as there is drinking, I'm there.

OR

Post your funny drunk stories.

Tonight, I told my roommies about the guy who said he was gonna marrrrry me cuz it was fate. I believed him until he turned out to be a jerk. It is funnier if you're drunk.

Or just post funny gifs or talk about alcohol or whatever.

I wanna laugh. :)

Please disregard! The author has now pulled her story. Nothing to see here...now close your eyes and look at another campfire. Kisses...

I subscribe to an FFn community called All about Peter. Today I received an email about a story that has been added to its archive.

This story is called Knowing of your love.

The summary itself is what got me all hot and bothered, so I opened the 3-chapter WIP and proceeded to read it.

Why? Because I betaread for IdreamofEddy and her story The Orbiting Meteor.

Now, this story is not at all a verbatim copy of The Orbiting Meteor, but the similarities - right down to Peter calling Bella 'Bunny' - make me uneasy.

I have already reviewed chapter 3 of Knowing of your love to inform the author that I will be watching the progression of this story. This author is still in high school (per her profile), so I want to tread carefully here. But I find I am very suspicious of this author because her profile only just started on March 10th and she already has 4 stories posted - but she has NO Favorite Authors or Favorite Stories sections posted.

I do not ship Emmett stories, so I have no way of knowing if two of her other three fics have 'similarities' to any other established fan fics. And her other Jasper/Bella tale...I have no idea.

What I want to know is if any of you see the similarities between the two fics. You would have to be a reader of The Orbiting Meteor to know for sure.

But, again, I am curious. Help, please!

*THIS HAS BEEN RANGER APPROVED*

 I saw that there was a previous post similar to this one -- but I'm looking for stories that are BxE, and have a 'forbidden love' plotline

I'm looking for mainly teacher/student, or age differences, or some other reason they couldn't be together (but PLEASE, no stories of them being related or ANYTHING like that -- it's creepy)

I've read Age of Consent, and Between the madness and the fire (which I miss deeply -- it hasn't updated in 5+ months *sadface*)

Thanks!
(oh and if you ever wanted to share more recs... @thefingergun is me on twitter!)

i posted this on the help desk thread earlier but as always i was late and everyone probably moved on....

i am currently working on my 5th chapter of a jasper/bella AU vamp fic. this is my first fanfic and i have 2 great betas from PTB. however, i would like someone to run my plot ideas by. i have a very informal outline and idea where i want the story to go, but would love to go over it with a more experienced person and someone who loves jasper/bella stories...

link to my story The Writing on The Wall 

So a little different from my usual Friday night posts, I'd like to know what some of your favorite MOMENTS from fan fiction are! Moments that you remember from a fic long after you've read it, parts that you like to re-read, things that made you all squishy inside...

And please, so we don't spoil any storylines for anyone currently reading any of these, put the title first, then what you love!

For me, in no particular order, a small sampling:

1. Not Meant To Be: the moment when Bella's working at the bar and Edward drops in unexpectedly

2. Wide Awake: when Edward risks everything and everyone knowing when he goes to get Bella off the gym floor

3. The Dominant: when you realize that Edward is typing nonsense when he's interviewing Bella, when in The Submissive, you just thought he was ignoring her

4. The Workshop: when Edward and Bella start to have sex in his parents house and Squeaky knocks on the door

5. Teenage Angst Brigade: when they're all in the room watching the movie or when Edward reaches back to Bella in the car and you know he's accepted her

6. Heartbreak Remedy: when Edward offers to show Bella what his preferences are if she shows up the next day

7. Master of the Universe: Edward takes Bella to his apartment in his helicopter

8. Tropic of Virgo: when Edward sees the bruises on Bella inflicted from the jealous girls in the hallway

9. His Personal Assistant: Bella watching Edward in the shower

10. Cullen Island: the wedding, when Edward walks in on Bella's freakout and says "what have they done to you"

It's happened all my life. I discover and fall in love the latest trend...the minute it ends. A few weeks ago I finally discovered the works of Jandco and Wtvoc. In the past few days I have finally read Masque of the Red Death (awesomesauce), Cascade and Cyanide (beautiful), and Emperors of Washington (!!!) So, I go to Gallantcorkscrews profile and find that she's done with fic. Here I am again, a day late and a dollar short. Its not that these great fics aren't still amazing, its just everyone has moved on and I feel like I just got here. I mean, I would start a proper book club for the fics- they are better than a lot of books I've read. I still have this crazy long list of fic to read, but I was wondering what fics are you reading now that you believe will become the next most awesome, gotta read it fic?

I promise to stay away for a little while so they have a fighting chance.

i just made my kids watch one of my favorite movies from childhood- the neverending story

what were your faves?  what should me and m'boys watch next week?

we've done the 80s greats.  tell me about 90s films you loved, old black and whites kids would enjoy (they love young frankenstein, for example but lol that ain't too old).  anything.

(i decided to be nice and remove the autoplay.  merry christmas!)

hi!  this week, we're starting something new.  YAY.  hopefully.  Anyway, this is Eclipse, part one, as interpreted by Trainwreck.

Next week, we'll have part 2, and hopefully by June, the entire movie. 

I found this and  It looked interesting.

As I am on my way to retrieve said first book, I see this on the New Release table.

I get to the register and it was 40% off.  I was done for.

Have any of you read the Dresden Files series?  Will I be lost by reading these two out of sync?

 I am so fucking pissed. Like so so angry. I have had the most ridiculously awful day at work. it started off with a customer telling me to "go fuck yourself you mother fucker". yeah. that was pleasant. then i had some jersey shore wannabe call me honey ten times in a super condescending way. fuck you too darling. then i had a horrible and long conversation with a christian co-worker about homosexuality(it started because i was telling her about the runaways) and how it is "unnatural" and a BUNCH of other bullshit that just makes me want to rage. like so hard. and then i went on npr and the huffington post to check out the news (why i thought that would be a good idea on a day like this idk) and proceeded to read about how a 13 year old yemeni child bride died because of bleeding in her genitals, and a 12 year old girl in jamacia was raped and burried alive. i mean, i don't even have words for that. seriously? Seriously????

Soooo could you guys post happy/funny things or fics (cause really i should probably calm the fuck down), or come and rage with me, maybe we can all calm down together :-)

Oh, also I'm going to the CinemaFusion Anaheim GardenWalk theater and watch The Runaways at 6:30 if anyone would like to join me in my "fuck you" to the homophobic asshole at my work. Its the theater by Disneyland. 

i'm going to assume FFAF still applies?

ok, i'm heading off tomorrow on a poorly planned road trip to las vegas, coachella, LA, portland, and back, and i REALLY need suggestions of things to do, mostly in LA.  we have no idea what to do.  or a hostel to stay in in LA?  we're car camping (walmart, here we come) everywhere else, but i dunno about LA.

help me!  suggestions pleeeeeeeease.

I've been desperate to get my arse over to Canada since I was 16.  After months of Hard-Core saving (I am experiensing severe shopping withdrawal) I can finally get there, Vancouver being my cherry popper!

I am  nauseatingly excited

So, what I'm asking is - where do I go?

There are so many websites, I want real opinions!

One month of madness before I start Real Adult Life.

Sites, Activities, Live Music, Shopping, Local Hidden gems. EVERYTHING.

Thanks!
