    Testing, Testing, 1, 2, 3... nope.

    If I see one more episode of any damn thing where a student's refusal to even try is framed as the fault of the teacher- ugh.

    I could have LOVED that episode, and all it would have taken was a bit of effort from Rainbow. An admittance that she was trying and it was hard and it wasn't working. It threads through the episode- even with what Fluttershy says when she breaks them apart.

    Raindrops' Hiatus; Friendship is Mandatory.

    Holla!

    Two things: first, I'm putting Raindrops' Wrap Up on indefinite hiatus. I have plan to finish it, but I think it's fair to say that at this point either that'll never happen or one day you'll log on and it'll just be DONE, with about 35 new chapters in your feed.

    Secondly, as a kind of apology, I've got this for you:

    My Little Pony: Friendship is Mandatory.

    Tiny Human Baby

    Holla!

    I have a son! The tiny human baby is called Teddy and was born on the 17th- in the run-up and the last few weeks I've sort of dropped off here. But now I'm back- got my lunch hours to myself at work again, so Raindrops' Wrap Up should be updating a lot more often now. Hurrah!

    Good News!

    I'm gonna be a dad!*

    I could not be more excited or delighted. But there's so much work to do, and as a result you'll have noticed that I'm posting less often. I can't really be sorry about that- I think I've got my priorities straight- but you do certainly all deserve an explanation, so this is it!

    Tiny human baby on the way!* Wahoooo!

    Raindrops' Wrap Up: the CYOA conundrum

    Here's an interesting bit of maths for you; CYOA stories present an exponential writing challenge.

    Here's the skinny:

    Everyone reads chapter 1. That's 500 words written, of which everyone reading the story will read 500 words per readr. Lovely.

Raindrops' Hiatus; Friendship is Mandatory. · 8:00pm Mar 6th, 2014

Holla!

My Little Pony: Friendship is Mandatory.

It's a fluff sheet for playing Paranoia games in the MLP universe, under the ever-watchful eye of FRIEND CELESTIA: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1IzVpR1y7TeLbFUIsWQjhYGcdxkW1OphAAUfZR8eCu6Q/edit

So enjoy, if you're into that sort of thing. Bye for now!

Yay, you're still alive and... well, hopefully sane!

Kid not driving you too mad? (Can't remember if you've got a son or daughter.)

1901780 A son! And I have not slept a full night in precisely ten months. BARF. He's cute enough to make up for it though. He claps when you clap!

I'm MOSTLY sane, but mostly's all i ever was, so...

1903976 None of us are fully sane. Hell, I started wanting my own kid recently. Problem is I need to get a girlfriend first, end my streak of 9 years being single.
