having a breakdown in Walmart

Blog About: 

Author: 

So Mom and I thought we were feeling well enough to go get some groceries, but while walking around Walmart, my knee tweaked and Mom told me to go back to the car.

Once back at the car, I had a complete breakdown - crying, shaking, and not being able to stop.

Fortunately I had myself under control by the time mom came out with the groceries, so she didn't see my breakdown, but honestly, I still feel pretty shaky

so hugs appreciated.

Reposting my Gaby trilogy

I'm going to repost the three books that make up my fanfic Gaby in Dorset Trilogy here. I've agreed this with Mads who of course invented the
main characters that the story involves.but is different enough to show my take on the Gabyverse, a bit more angst and action all with my off-beat sense of humour. For those who haven't seen them before, do enjoy them, for those who have seen them, do enjoy them again. I'm re-editing as I go along so they should read slightly better.

I have added and edited to the first chapter of my new story I posted

I have began another story here and I wonder. I call it Fugitive from the republic and its a story set in the star wars and its like a fan fiction from it. But I wonder if there are enough fans here that like that sort of thing or not. And I wonder if anyone would be interested in helping me with it. This chapter is really as far as I have so far. Its an idea thats been in my head for some time but its as far as I have thought to. I have some ideas how to proceed

Looking for a fanatasy story I remember

Forums: 

The story was set in a world where everyone has levels and classes like an RPG setting, but in a modern setting. The main character starts as a middle aged male office worker ( married with a couple of teenaged children ) with no fancy class who then gets a class as a Sucubus or some other sexualized class that transforms them to a women and has a bunch of (superficially) negative attributes which they learn to take advantage of.
Anyone recognize the story?

Amy won again today on Jeopardy. She is the first transgender contestant to have this much success -- closing in on $1 million in total winnings.

It is her serenity as much as her amazing knowledge base that makes her so much fun to watch.

Today - at a crucial point of the contest, an answer she gave was judged wrong. She is rarely wrong. I turned to my spouse and said, "They've got to correct that! Her answer was just as correct as the answer they said was correct." About five minutes later, they corrected their error and gave her credit for the answer.

a health update: most of my flu symptoms have ended except I have a runny nose, and its hard to complain about that when I have felt so bad the last couple of days.

Okay, to make a long story short, my pc was taken out by a worm that f'ed up the bios controls that then fried my processor and motherboard and took out the hard drive too that had all my contest stuff on it. It was a Russian worm that they dont have a commercial means of removing yet. And it came from an anime site and I had used the vivaldi browser. Because of the way vivaldi worked, the browser let stuff load before it blocked it. Well, live and learn. Im using Firefox plain and simple. No more Chrome.

Looking for a story

I’m looking for two stories

One is about someone makes a bet with a friend because his girlfriend who I think is named M (something) left him so he can’t get a promotion because it doesn’t look like he is settling down. His friend has to pretend to be her in front of his boss I think it was on Crystal story site and the male character might be named John.

The other one is a body swap where a young male student maybe a musician swaps bodies in the middle of the night with his teacher who is having sex with her husband and ends up being a better mom.

But their uniforms included what I can only describe as a skirt. Not a kilt, but a plain red skirt with white stripes on the sides. Yes, boys and girls were in this outfit.

It wasn't bad and definitely had Del Toro's dark tone but one thing I plan to make clear from the trailer. I am a fan of Del Toro and his dark, Supernatural tone; however, this movie lacks the latter so let me disabuse you of that idea. If you still want to see it even then after the trailer feel free. It remains an interesting movie despite that though I was annoyed, feeling I had been misled by the trailer.
