Finals are DONE!

[x_maker]

Well, with the exception of Music 102, which is only delayed. Although the idea to complete my P.E. final with a written test on the rules of volleyball? Sneaky, sneaky. But I aced it, of course.

But I swear, I need a button: I am a genius, and should be exempt from shit.

I hope I'm done! Growing 7 inches in two weeks damn well HURT. My pants still fit so I haven't grown since I got here anyway.

Dude, you'd look weird with a tail. ... And this is me being really glad I didn't grow one of my own. It'd kinda make sense with the teeth and ears and claws and crap, but no tail for me thank GOD.

According to the tape measure here... 5'6" and a quarter. I am somewhat pleased.

[x-mirage.livejournal.com]

still shorter than me. hahahha.

[x-forge.livejournal.com]

That is because you are amazon woman. You and Catseye both, geez!

[x-mirage.livejournal.com]

at least I don't pounce on you...although I could...hmmmm

drink milk.

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

Hey, you're almost as tall as some of the girls!

[x-forge.livejournal.com]

And you're almost as masculine!

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

I can still kick your ass.

[x-forge.livejournal.com]

Yeah, but I'll bet Catseye could kick yours.

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

Maybe. Maybe not. I dunno.

[x-catseye.livejournal.com]

Catseye thinks WarmSnugglyFriend is perfectly safe.

ShinyBitsBoy? Not so much, today.

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

We could throw him in the lake again.

[x-forge.livejournal.com]

So not funny right now, dude.

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

Did I miss something?

I mean, okay, the arm, and I'm not gonna go screwing up your arm. I'm just saying, you know, we could. Not that we would.

[x-forge.livejournal.com]

Soon as I get this sling off, you can TRY and throw me in the lake. There's some things I want to test out, anyway.

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

I'm holding you to that.

[x-catseye.livejournal.com]

Catseye can help! But only if Catseye can try to throw anyone else nearby too. Because it is more fun that way!

[x-sanfuaiyaa.livejournal.com]

So I'm not the shortest guy here. That is oddly comforting.

[x-blink.livejournal.com]

I'm still the shortest girl though :*P and now I'm shorter than Forge too!!!! waaaah!

I'm not counting the munchkins.

[xp_daytripper]

I'm not that much taller than you, pixie. What is it, half an inch? *grins*

[x-siryn.livejournal.com]

Forgetting someone, roomie? How tall are you anyway?

[x-blink.livejournal.com]

5'3"

great for fencing, lousy for lifting people.

[x-siryn.livejournal.com]

I thought we were the same height. Must be those shoes you wear. ;)

[x-blink.livejournal.com]

between Amanda and I we keep Doc Marten in business ;)

plus! they double as work shoes sometimes.

[x-siryn.livejournal.com]

And that extra inch of height fools me into thinking you're taller than you are.

[x-beast.livejournal.com]

I didn't stop growing until I was 21... mind you, I stopped going *up* when I was eighteen. Layering on copious amounts of muscle and density of bone is what took so long. I kept getting wider. *g* You'll probably start adding muscle once you stop going upwards, although I doubt you'll ever catch up to me. ;) Those puny short arms, you know.

[x-forge.livejournal.com]

Well, I can actually do a chin-up now with my right arm. I highly doubt I'll be packing on the impressive muscle any time soon, however.

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

I can do upsidedown situps!

[x-forge.livejournal.com]

I can do... two.

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

Upside down?

[x-forge.livejournal.com]

Yeah. I just have to hook my knees over something, like the rafters in the machine shop. Trouble is that I don't have the hip muscle on my left side to pull up well against gravity.

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

Well, yeah, to do an upside down situp you have to BE upside down.

So can you do more situps and get more hip muscle or is it gone-gone?

[x-forge.livejournal.com]

On that side? Gone-gone. Grafted directly into the implant that my leg attaches to. Solid anchor in what remains of my femur, and plastic tendons to hold the hip in the socket. It's why the artificial knee is reinforced so much, because it bears more of the load.

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

Could you make artifical muscles? Or something?

[x-forge.livejournal.com]

That's what my new arm is, myomer. Artificial fibers, steel that behaves like muscle. Trying to graft that onto my leg? It'd be like... okay, imagine a hole in the wall. You fix it with spackle, not entirely new studs and drywall and wiring and all that. Otherwise you'd have to tear down more than you'd fix. To replace the damaged muscle in my leg with myomer would mean weaving it all the way up into my abdominals and lower back - and I've seen how that's done, and I want to avoid it if at all possible. My arm feels weird enough now as it is.
