I've been blessed-cursed with the ability to get into anything I watch unless it upsets me on a personal level. That's why I better not watch Game of Thrones. Character death is the worst, but I'd still be in way too deep.
Acknowledging that it's not reality will ruin a whole show for me. I think about it too much and that's not what I call fun. I have to take in what I see before me and look no deeper.

I said somewhere that sometimes people don't care because they would otherwise care too much. This might have been exactly what I was talking about.

Queen_Andais 07-13-2016 02:07 PM

Different strokes for different folks, it's what makes the world go round.

Hooray for today being Wednesday. For some reason this morning I woke up thinking it was only Tuesday, which would have made me feel really sad.

Emotional 07-13-2016 03:06 PM

>Shuffles in<
Hi. I'm here to butt in. How are you guys?

Speaking of game of thrones, I've been avoiding it like the plague because of the themes involved.
I feel out of touch because basically everyone loves it and I just... won't. I won't do it. xD I get stubborn about this stuff.

Andais, why would you be sad?

Queen_Andais 07-13-2016 03:15 PM

Hey there, Emotional! Nice to see you out and about the site. Do you by chance have a favorite color? I've got some extra clothes and if you give me your favorite color(s) I'll send you a trade with some stuff.

I would be sad because it would only be Tuesday and it would be nice for it to be Friday. Although having a slow day at work for a ton of posting would be awesome too.

Game of Thrones never drew my interest either, yet a good portion of my friends watch the show. seems odd that I am not in on that fad.

My husband and I did really enjoy the Netflix Original Series, The Ranch with Danny Masterson, Ashton Kutcher, Debra Winger and Sam Elliot. Great show. Didn't go in with high hopes and was not disappointed.

Emotional 07-13-2016 03:30 PM

Oh, I'm usually a lurker type so I'm really putting myself out there ^^; But gotta get that gold, yo.
I'd appreciate anything really. Thanks for the kind offer~ I usually like light colours so white/pink/peach that sort of thing

Haha the friday thing, I thought that was the case. I'm assuming you have an office type job? I'm always on the move so I don't get to take advantage, myself.

I recognize like one name out of the whole bunch lol, I'm really under a rock tbh.
Have you read the book version? Heard people love it. (ps I love that, have low expectations, therefore don't get disappointed lol)

Queen_Andais 07-13-2016 04:52 PM

Nothing wrong with lurking, we have a fair amount here on this site. Just wait for an event, it's hard to lurk, we pull you in for conversation.

I do have an office job and for the most part really enjoy it. Been here six months and it doesn't feel like an eternity. One of the best places I've work in quite awhile. Stayed with job for seven years before they sold our division and it went down hill after that. Had to move onto something better for me and my mental health.

Emotional, my husband has this saying, "Strive for Excellence, Settle for Mediocre," it has worked well and I've adopted it for my own. Right along with, "Still Alive" as the basis for how I am doing, whenever someone asks me. Or "Woke up breathing, gonna be a good day."

salvete 07-13-2016 05:48 PM

those are some profound mottos!

Queen_Andais 07-13-2016 06:20 PM

Salvete, not sure how profound they are, simply that we shouldn't take this life too seriously. We're only a part of it for so long.

Emotional 07-13-2016 07:05 PM


Aww, I've seen what stress and an unhappy job can do to people. It's really awful. I'm so happy for you that you've found something satisfactory. :)
I can't imagine staying somewhere for 7 years, did you ever want to leave before things went wrong?

Ah, that's a nice way to see it. More people need to be less serious, including myself~
I usually go by an abraham hicks -esque type of view like, if it doesn't make me happy, don't do it. Or, if that person makes me miserable, don't stick around them etc.

Queen_Andais 07-13-2016 08:33 PM

I stayed for the seven years because it was a job that paid well during an economic time of hardship for most people. Got a decent amount of vacation and the work was fun. Learned lots of new things from working there. It was after the bank sold our title division to a title company that things went super bad, super fast. Didn't want to be there anymore. Found a temp job that paid me more, gave me the learning experience to enter a new job field.

I'll try anything once, after that...depends on the first experience.

Check your trades Emotional, sent you a bunch of stuff. If you don't like some of the items just send them back to me and I will gift them elsewhere.

Emotional 07-13-2016 08:52 PM

You've been really lucky :o But I suppose you had lots of experience before hand to help you with that.

Ahhhh that's so much stuff :o you didn't have to, a shirt and pants would have done the trick lol. I'll have a good look through and send any back if I don't prefer them.
Thank you for being so helpful ^^

Your avatar/scene thing is super pretty by the way.

Queen_Andais 07-13-2016 09:29 PM

Some of it was making my own luck by jumping out there, some of it just fell into my lap. The job I am currently at is all because my friend works at one of the other branches and recommended me. It was my birthday gift from her. She got me the interview, my sparkling personality and work ethic got me the rest. Plus there was the random onsite personal reference. A manager that I worked for at the bank job happen to come into the Starbucks where Kristi and I were meeting, Sarah happen to know Kristi from the time they worked at an escrow company years before. How small the world is sometimes shocks me still.

There is still a bunch more stuff in the giveaway drawers of my inventory. So if you don't like certain items that I sent you in a specific color, odds are there might be others in there for you to try out.

I see you are making fabulous use of the items so far.

Thanks for thinking it looks nice...still feels like it's missing something. Not entirely sure that it wouldn't look better with an avatar, looks pretty without one so far.

Symphony of the Night 07-13-2016 09:55 PM

wow Emotional your avatar is coming along very beautifully!!

---------- Post added 07-13-2016 at 09:56 PM ----------

that is nice of you queenie to always be helping others

Emotional 07-13-2016 09:57 PM

I love your confidence so much! xD Your sparkling personality. That isn't sarcasm though, I do believe you.
That's absolutely crazy! The synchronicity in it all is beautiful :0 I bet you've won a bunch of contests in the past too haha

Ohhh thanks :D I'm already pretty over the moon with the stuff you gave me. I can have a different avatar every day like this ~

I think it looks better without an avatar. It would be nice to put something extra in it. Never enough sparkles, you know? :P

Symphony, Thank you :)
And ikr? Andais is so nice.

Ava The Vampire 07-13-2016 10:00 PM

I think it looks great, Emotional!

Welcome, by the way! I've been neglecting Mene again.

Symphony of the Night 07-13-2016 10:04 PM

yes queenie has helped me out too in the past. she is consistent with always being kind and generous to everyone

Emotional 07-13-2016 10:04 PM

Thank you, Ava ^^ I really appreciate the compliments despite the basic nature of it haha.
Working a lot, I bet?

Really, symphony? How long have you been a member?~

Ava The Vampire 07-13-2016 10:10 PM

Queenie is very sweet! Very caring too!

I don't know if it's proper to talk about someone who isn't there, but I'm sure she wouldn't mind us talking about her and saying good things. [XP]

And yes and no. I've been busy moving lately, so basically all the free time I get goes towards cleaning, packing, painting, and general house things. Then with work, I recently had to "quit" my job because of my health. (I put quit in quotation marks because I didn't technically quit, but I am a teacher's aide and now I am just a sub, so I don't work nearly as often as I used to and I am not on the schedule for work anymore, so it's like quitting, but not...)

It's always nice to help out those when you have the means to assist. Not in a charity way, but a pay it forward kind of way.

I didn't take it as sarcasm, Emotional. Took it in the vein of sincerity since that is what you were putting out in your post.

Haven't won a bunch because truthfully, don't enter very many. Usually if I enter it's in a group format and I am one of many to complete the look.

Generally it's me running contests, not avatar specific, but other kinds of games. During site events I host a giveaway thread.

Happy to assist in your creative process.

Ava, you are busy bee outside of the pixel world, we'll hold down the fort until you can get back here again. [yes]

The pixels here are WAY too pretty to be mean to others here. Would rather spread the joy and beauty of the items to everyone.

Don't worry, Ava, I was here for the comments. Happened to be lurking, answering the phones at work, posting in other threads, messing with my own avatar. The usual stuff.

Have no fear, my head won't become to big, got plenty of faults that keep me firmly planted to the ground. [insane]

Symphony of the Night 07-13-2016 10:22 PM

heheh I am imagining if a head got too big and top-heavy and then it would be on the ground instead of the feet

Queen_Andais 07-13-2016 10:28 PM

And I pictured it the other way, causing me to float off into the hemisphere; Whereupon my head would become so large it popped and the rest of me tumbled/hurled to the Earth below. Splat.

Emotional 07-13-2016 10:32 PM

Ahh, the moon's out tonight. It's so pretty *o*Finding it hard to look away.

Ava, that's exactly what I was thinking ^^ Tbh I think everyone should be doted on at some point, and the amazing kind, sweet Queen Andais deserves it~
That's great news :D You moving on your own?~
Aww, how are you doing? Are you happy about the change or did you want to keep your old status. I hope it's better for you though.

Andais, you can never be too careful on the internet though. People can take things the wrong way, but it doesn't seem that way here. ^^ So I'm happy.
You should enter contests both online and irl! I just KNOW you'd win something. You have that luck. I'm really rooting for you to become more prosperous~~

Queen_Andais 07-13-2016 10:35 PM

Not sure about irl winning contests. Bowling is the only that I was ever good at, especially when I was younger and bowled a bunch of leagues. Now, been awhile since we bowled, period. Might need to get back into that.

Most people here are fabulous with each other. There are the occasional exceptions to that rule, met one by accident earlier this week. Just as real life goes, not everyone gets along with everyone else.

Where are you at geographically that you can already see the moon? It's only 4:35pm here in Arizona.

Emotional 07-13-2016 10:42 PM

Ohhh bowling? That's cool :D It should be fun for you to get back into that.
I'm also talking about stuff like money contests where you just get entered and then it's fates decision hehe (it seems to like you).

A troll? Or someone who can't handle others opinions lol.

I'm in england. :) It's past midnight here. I have time off work so I get to stay up as late as I like haha

I also love bowling
