HOME! Home home home home HOME.
Not that I didn't have a really good vacation, but I missed the internet, and my boys, and you all.
I totally took humorous notes about the trip (there was a couple who looked EXACTLY like Santa and Mrs. Claus sitting next to us on the beach one day...) but I just read to skip 683 on my filtered flist, which is as far back as LJ will let me go, but I think I'm only missing like a day and a half (if anything really exciting happened to you/fic was posted Thursday the 4th or Friday the 6th, link me). It's 2.30 in the morning, I'm on a combination of jet-lag and wacky sleep cycle (in other words: not vampiric), so that will have to wait. Or possibly never happen.
I skimmed pretty thoroughly. Fic is unread but saved. I didn't comment to anything and I'm not doing any memes or polls, though I spotted a few cool ones. Several people on my flist asked about appropriate names to refer to me by, so I'll answer that question publicly here.
My name is Kelsey. You can call me that. You can also call me K. Or BlueStarGirl or BSG (although that happens less frequently now that Battlestar Gallactica is a legitimate fandom). I myself get kind of attached to screennames and tend to save peoples cellphone numbers under their screennames for awhile (
singingchipmunk JUST graduated to her actual name,
the_rocklobster still hasn't, and
wordsaremyfaith somehow got her real name in my phone from the beginning). In general I like being referenced in journals as
pressdbtwnpages with the vain hope of your friends hearing fabulous things about me and being all "Wow, that person sounds awesome! I want to be friends with her too!", though people referring to me at all makes me feel special. I'm that easy.
Relatedly, my contact info is:
AIM - Purestarwater6
Google Talk/ Gmail - bluestargirl [at] gmail [dot] com
I've posted my cell number around in locked and, I think, unlocked entries. You're also welcome to ask for it. I'd love to hear from you, but I tend to screen unfamiliar numbers so either text me and tell me who you are, or leave a message and tell me who you are, or call me from a Fall Out Boy* show and tell me who you are.
I am shy and bad at making first (or second, or sometimes third) moves. YOU are very much more than welcome to contact me to say hi or have meaningful chats or picspam me with flowers or whatever. I promise to be delightful and friendly and probably never ever say "This isn't a great time, can I get back to you?" even if I am juggling cats while my head is on fire (Which hasn't actually happened yet, but might at some point being as I am not known for being graceful).
* Speaking of Fall Out Boy, my HCT show is the last show of the tour, July 2. I am sort of trying to stay unspoiled. Not completely, but, like, no setlists please. I like to think of concerts as less completely scripted than they evidently are, also I was spoiled for the Friends or Enemies tour and mine was the second show of the tour, it was kind of a bummer being COMPLETELY unsurprised.
One more band thing and then I'll shut up: Anyone in Southern California planning on going to the San Diego Street Scene in September? I really really want to go, um, obviously, and
sparly's not sure she can come down, so... looking for concert buddies and starting early as I have terrible luck with this stuff.
And now I will stop typing. Though I have more to say. Because I missed you guys, and this, THAT much.
