crossover_chick | I. Hate. That Time Of The Month

Or, rather, I hate the very first DAY of it. I can soldier through the rest of it, but that first day almost ALWAYS has cramps. I've taken some painkillers, but for some reason now I'm jittery and feeling oddly cold. Okay, maybe not so oddly -- it was freezing here today (not at all helped by a huge wind) and while I haven't been outside, there's always little drafts in this house, so. . . Basically it's just not a pleasant day for me, and it's kind of short-circuited my plans to be productive. I MIGHT still be able to pull off some RPing this evening, but I can't be sure of it. Concentrating is a bit touch-and-go.

I did see the latest episodes of "My Little Pony" -- I like how the new opening not only acknowledges Twilight's new alicorn status, but that there's less of a focus on the Mane Six now than there was at the very start (the new picture has the Cutie Mark Crusaders and a bunch of other ponies in it, and its taken by, of all ponies, Photo Finish). And GOOD ON THEM for starting to include Luna more! She's FINALLY in the opening credits with Celestia, and the focus on this pair of episodes is looking at Celestia and Luna's past -- specifically, going up against Discord, then the Nightmare Moon fight. I also really like the fact that Celestia explicitly tells Twilight, then her subjects, that for the longest time the Summer Sun Celebration was always a time of mourning for her, since it reminded her of how she'd had to banish her own sister. I just like it when Luna's acknowledged and we see how much the sisters love each other, okay? So yeah, I approve of this two-parter. Hopefully the rest of the season will be good too!

All right, I should attempt to catch up on stuff and see if I can pull any RPing bunnies out of the hat. . . Ugh, I hate feeling so blah. . .
