could someone else do one in the next few days?

btw, for all those I haven't mentioned it to yet: since I'll be like 20 weeks pregnant and frumpy as all get out, but not pregnant enough for people to KNOW I'm pregnant, I'm skipping costume time. :( But I will give applause for any of us who decides to get up there.

You could still don some ears and a wig and go as preggers T'Pol. :mrgreen:

I don't know. I never allowed objectifying a lady interfere with my enjoyment of her company. If anything, I always got more kick out of spending time with someone who I could objectify AND talk to. The combo is so rare you know.

Hmmm. So you're either saying that most attractive women are stupid or that most intelligent women are unattractive. Interesting POV. :lol:

Hey, don't kill the messenger! Intelligent women are just as rare as intelligent men. Are you telling me that intelligent, attractive men are plentiful?

Dude you got PINK CARPETS?? :shock: :faint: That's the exact same color as the carpet in my old room at my parents' house. My mother picked it for me and I DIDN'T LIKE IT. But obviously she wouldn't listen to me. :? :roll: :(

Someone should make one out of tha tone too, very cool! I don't know how to do that :(

If someone makes me a shirt, I'll totally spot you $10 or $14 or w/e it costs you.

That'd be awesome.

The one T'Poptarts just mentioned, the red/orange one, might also look really cool against a black background instead of a white background.

I know there's websites that you can order like shirts and stuff with prints of images you upload. Oh hell I actually have a Cafepress account I could totally do it from there for you. (They're expensive though :? )

It's easy as pie. It had to be if I did it.

First, I right clicked on the image and saved it to my photos. Then I went on photobucket.com and uploaded it. Then I reversed it with the edit function. Then I copied that version to my photo print program and printed it, first on regular paper to see how it would come out, and then on iron on transfer paper I got at the craft store. Then I washed and dried the shirt I was gonna use, cut out the image, and ironed it on, following the (obviously) idiot-proof directions on the package of transfer paper. Total project cost: about 7 bucks. (5 bucks for the shirt at Academy sporting goods and about 2 bucks for the transfer paper.) Ta daaaa! :happyjump:

And yes, T'Poptarts, my bedroom carpet is pale pink. I like pink. 8)

Well yes. I continue to write. And on Fanfiction.Net, for those who want, it is possible to cast a glance at my latest efforts. We arrived to
The Ears of the Elves, chapter Forty-four


And here is the beginning of the whole story.

But, I must say, you could also find something else on Fanfiction.net written by me. If you want.
