My friend got married yesterday and we missed the wedding because of work but we made it to the reception. Because its mid-September and the reception was in a nature center (awesome!) there was a little bit of a fall theme. Not overbearingly, but the tables all had these tiny pumpkins.
So they’re cleaning up at the end of it and we’re still hanging out because we haven’t seen these people in forever and we can talk until three in the morning when we get together. All of a sudden, the Maid of Honor hands us a tiny pumpkin.
“Take one.”
“Um… okay?”
“Take another.”
“….?”
“It is my duty as Maid of Honor to make sure that the guests leave with an uncomfortable number of tiny pumpkins.”
So it turns out that she’d gotten a bunch of them for a Halloween party last year and after the party was over her mom threw them into the compost heap thinking that would be the end of it. But what she didn’t seem to realize was that if you put pumpkins in a compost heap- it grows more pumpkins. It grows pumpkins exponentially. Serious mathematical anomaly pumpkins.
So this year she has even more tiny pumpkins and she figured it would be a good idea to have them as decor for the reception. BUT- she would still have to throw them out at the end of the day and no matter where you throw them you are doomed to have a ridiculous amount of tiny pumpkins growing SOMEWHERE at your fault.
So everyone left with at least two tiny pumpkins and that’s how we made friends with the Maid of Honor.
So I forgot about it and then the next morning I woke up and found these two tiny pumpkins in my purse and had a puzzling moment of ‘what?’
We were invited to the Maid of Honor’s house the other day so we could:
take some of the flowers off her hands
help with some post-wedding stuff
watch the presidential debate
play Clue for like three hours
drink a lot of booze.
And there are just… tiny pumpkins EVERYWHERE.
They were in the bathroom.
At the end of the night, I counted 26 tiny pumpkins, and that was just what I could see.
i mean i never thought id be fit ever but then i started doing random sports and now im?? kinda fit??? I can do a bunch of pushups? its a bit surreal but it can happen :u
the closest i ever was to being fit was after travelling europe for a month- my arms got almost jacked from carrying around my backpacking pack
but aside from that ive hated nearly every sport ive been forced to try, have no money, and motivation limited by depression
makes looking at dancers who move so gracefully and are more muscle than fat a liiiiitttle disheartening
but u are right- it can happen…maybe….far in the future….:P
me: i want a nice character description sheet. so i can like… say what their voice sounds like. and stuff. and whether they prefer coffee to tea character description sheet: What are your character’s relations with their parents? me, realizing my character exists in a vacuum for the sole purpose of looking cute when i draw them:
I knew I wanted to make a PTT poster for Otakon and I don’t regret it at all. I listened to the soundtrack the whole time I was drawing this and I love it and it’s great.
