What I Did on My Sandbox Vacation

Please tell us where you've been and what you've been doing.

i read the internet
went to arby's
saw a truck burn
saw a bus crash
got bruised scraping for a foul ball

oh! I'm back! I've been watching the trains go by and the people walk up and down 4th Ave. Also, the regulars at the Dome Stadium Tavern.

do you see the same people every day?

! where was that? and when?

Def see the same people over at the Dome. Starting to recognize some of the bus commuters in the am.

sixth ave just south of the west seattle bridge

yesterday

I saw one a few weeks ago on I-5 nb at that exit right before the 520 which name I can't remember. Burned to a crispy truck cinder, and had been hauling one of those giant mobile cranes (also a crispy cinder).

i went surfing in the ocean instead of on the internet

jergins you witnessed this^^^^?

dude while i was gone my chick had a severe allergic reaction to bactrim ds and had to go to ER and shit

she had a rash, it was pretty gnarly

saw the aftermath

gnashed my teeth
wept uncontrollably
quit bathing
stopped brushing my hair
stayed in bed all day
fasted
took up necromancy
tossed the yarrow sticks 156 times a day
wrote the first 4 volumes (out of 6) of the history of the sandbox

ysi sandbox history pls

i can't think of anything i did that is worthy of typing about, for example i had our couch steam cleaned by a heavyset man with a bristled mustache and a pair of those tinted eyeglasses that make people look like angry defendants who turned out to be perfectly affable and kindly so there was no story there, but i don't know what thread i should post on first to say, 'hello sandbox friends', so i selected this one.

hi estela

hi lingbert

hey there estela

hey there max

worked
worked some more
won a good bottle of wine
got my drums back

refresh
refresh
refresh
refresh
etc.

also, thought of a million things to post, most of them urgent and compelling.

tear it up, sweetheart

well you see, that's the problem

i forgot them

cleaned my apartment today. it was time. yesterday, and old lady walking by looked in my window (it was dark out and my lights were on) and said "what a mess!"

the shame i felt after i realized she was totally right. time for me to get my shit together. thanks random nosy old lady.

dear sandbox,

i am back but it's very hot and i'm too tired to type anything. but <3 to you all.

got a little sick and then a little better

went to portland

i'm going on real life vacation tomorrow, to nz, until the 20th, but i might check in from time to time. the day after we get back we'll be seeing neil young in brisbane on what will be inauguration day in america, i hope he is fervent about it. <3<3<3 to everyone.

dear sandbox,

i am back now. i missed you. happy happiest well auguring day to you all<3<3

Dear estela,

Welcome Back! I missed you badly. Please stick around for a while.

Love,

me too!

xox<3<3luv,
lxy

a big thank you to all* of you.

*i have a suspicion

WHAT do you mean?

i would <3 to tell you but it is my policy to be circumspect about my suspicions etc.

Circumspection is a virtue, estela. Thank you.

i spent my most recent sandbox vacation thinking about the sandbox

it's lovely to see you, jergins, i hope you had a nice sandbox vacation.

it is good to have estela and jergins back, even though jergins still posted.

what did you do estela? can you say?

she may be able to say, but then she would perhaps have to kill you.

i think i can speak for all of l&j board in saying that would be less than ideal.

breaking one kneecap, just to put him in his place, might be alright

maybe wait til the toe heals, though.

here's what i did, lingbert: talked, ate, lolled, walked, made arrangements on the telephone then carried them out, tried not to appear sad because one of the people i was with a lot is dying but he doesn't want any histrionics, just some lols and chats and nice times while he can, also i properly realised my sister's bf is funny as shit, i knew he was but not the extent of it, he is a find.

ps i would never kill you, or even damage your kneecap.

what is the toe story?

http://gfx1.gamelink.com/GLImages/prodimages/76534.jpg

that is a toe story, i want the toe story.

estela please visit seattle soon

the toe story is 100% dull and uninteresting. on december 8th, i was sober, alone, and calm. i had just turned the lights off and was walking back to my bed when i accidentally hit my left little toe on a chair leg and fractured it. the doctor says i will be "aware of it" for 3 months from the date of injury.

you forgot the part about the hot girl waiting in your bed. not so boring!

if by hot girl you mean cold unused 2nd pillow then yes you're right i forgot to mention her

aw.

what did u name the pillow

i wonder what max is going to do on his sandbox vacation

...

i named her sadness

i trust you didn't tie a string around sadness' middle to approximate a waist, some people on the internet might do a thing like that but i'm certain you would not.

this thread took such a sad turn. i feel sad.

♫ heyyyyy theeeeeeeeeeere lonelyberrrrrrrrrt ♫

stringbert

i use both of my pillows to prevent one from becoming lonely and cold ;_;

* Always in the mood to cuddle
* Sturdy arm comfortably wraps around your body
* All the positives of sleeping with your boyfriend without all the negatives!
* The perfect partner for the single lady!

i use many pillows. you might call my polypillamorous.

then again i might not!

that is your right.

You can sleep comfortably knowing that your half-chested, one armed cuddle partner is there for you.

i dont want to speak for the rest of you but

i hope these months of unceasing toe awareness don't make lingbert cranky and then he takes it out on us.

take it out on your pillow, buddy!

Sadness. And woe!

woe nelly

is lingbert taking a sandbox vacation?

he's studybert now

he gave up on trying to find a husband.

lingbert, yesterday.

dear ole lingbert

hi estela. i have had difficulty focusing and "getting my head into it" this quarter, so i have decided to decrease my ilx activity and online activity in general. i feel that this will make me a more productive student. in fact, i feel that this HAS made me a more productive student, but i have work to do yet!

regards,

stayed up too late!

yes indeed.
