low, flying planes

I'm in the airport on my way to the AAR, with a few hours to kill before my flight to Chicago. It's a beautiful day, and the planes are taking off right in front of my window. I'm not quite yet ready, I think, to be saturated with nollij, but I'll be there by the first session tomorrow.

For a few reasons that don't bear explaining on Livejournal, I am pretty low. Therefore, I am making a blatant plea for internet sympathy and combining it with a distraction technique.

So here's my offer.
If you comment, I will reply to your comment with one of three things:
--a costume item that suits you
--a happy memory of you
--a haiku based on a topic you suggest.

Of course, replies may be delayed till I can find some available Chicago webbernets, but I promise a reply to all of them.

And now, I'm going to eat my damn Butterfinger.

*hug* Have an awesome time at AAR! I think you are fabulous.

(And I would happily accept your suggestion of a costume item; a happy memory; or a haiku on the subject of cheese.)

Long-distance sympathy from a local area code...

*air hug!*

Here's a distraction I can offer: while you are flying, take the time to enjoy the clouds. They're freakin' _beautiful_ from the air.

Mmm, Butterfinger. Enjoy that.

A costume, please. Or, you could write a haiku about frogs.

I'm sorry you're feeling down... *hugs*.

Awww, sorry you're feeling down. If any of the Philly contingent can help, please let us know.

I always enjoy costume ideas or happy memories.

:-( I am sorry that you are low. I will take a costume item for cheering-up purposes.

Mmmm, Butterfinger.

Navel haiku plz kthx.

May Butterfingers and Chicago lift your spirits. Life is good, and soon that fact will re-apparate itself to you, Meanwhile, you should clearly write a haiku about pork.

Why is it that you come to Chicago when I leave for Pittsburgh? How long are you in town?

*hugs* I'm sorry you're feeling down. Everything will be all right.
Have a good time at AAR.

I would like a haiku...about SCIENCE!

Or, actually, what I'd like best is for you to get a big hug. It's hard to send those through the net, but be hugged.

Love and hugs to you.

Happy memory, please!

Hey, aren't we supposed to give you things to cheer you up?

It's not exactly a memory of a specific event, but thanks to you, I will never be able to sing the little teapot song with a straight face, and that is a very happy thing.

*big hugs*

I too am very sorry you're not at your happiest. But you know what will cheer you up? Writing a haiku about Colonel Tigh!

I do not approve of unhappy sigersons -- I hope that your awesome self-prescribed medicine is doing the trick!

(a costume item would be awesome, but so would haiku about ninjas)

WOO WOO! WHICHEVER YOU PLEASE.

Sorry you're not feeling well, but Chicago is fun! I highly recommend Gino's East.

And, um, I like this game. Haiku topic: the spleen.

[identity profile] pantshead.livejournal.com 2008-10-31 09:11 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm betting you deserve the damn Butterfinger! On account of exceeding awesomeness!

I welcome all forms of silliness...PoC suggests a haiku about teenagers wearing lame costumes ("no, my Yankees hat *is* my costume") trick-or-treating, but you may not find that to be very workable!

You don't have to do anything for me, but I hope you feel better soon.
