Put this on the planner for next year -

Goldens in Golden

Golden will celebrate Golden Retrievers during the “Goldens in Golden” event on Saturday, February 8, 2025.


So close to home, too. Not like our luck at all.

Field Day!

Field day is here!

Fall weather's great and fun's happening - join us outside for a day of games and competition. :)

Main attractions you don't want to miss:
- David Haller, tk and t-great, is about ready to go with an aerial obstacle course for the flyers and floaters out on the green.
- Kyle Gibney, your friend and mine, has set up a ninja warrior obstacle course in the Danger Room for those of us who can't fly. Find him inside!
- If you miss the courses, Maya's got some Danger Room games for the rest of the day.
- Jessica Jones and Jubilee, Triple Js, have a craft station closer to the porch.
- I'll be running field day events out near the treeline. Tug of war, races, water balloons, capture the flag!

Food'll be provided after lunch time and thorough out the day near the pool.

Thank everyone for their patience and understanding while I was recovering. I have finally recovered myself. Everything is fine.
xp_longshot: (Beaten)
David gave me a phone to let you know how I'm doing. Finally.

I have a better idea. I don't have to worry about my powers, so let's play a game.

Ask. Me. Anything.
xp_longshot: (Whoa)
I'll be doing a quick last pass through for donations before we head into the city!

As a reminder, there will be food and merriment tonight at the District X Community Center. I want to extend a special thank you to everyone who picked a star on the DXCC giving tree, or for those of you who have extended their support this holiday season. You're making sure kids and their families displaced by the flooding have a joyous end of year! We're building a special thing out in DX.

If you want to join us tonight, we could always use more elves at our First Annual Santa Sleepover. Come, eat, be merry.

Come say hi if you're there! I'll be in a Santa hat and hard to miss.

Be careful googling yourself. Seems like a large portion of the internet thinks I'm dead.

Whoops! Kind of them to think of me at all.

I'm alive, well and it is my birthday! In celebration I've brought in some fun treats from Patisserie Tomoko from Brooklyn. Give 'em a try!

Guys, guys —

The DXC is really decked on for today's April Fools. Look at how fancy this is!

[Attached is an image of the entryway of the DXC, only the walls are covered in a collection of vintage oil paintings in ornate frames. The biggest and most centrally placed painting looks to be The Fortune Teller.

Paper garland is strung from wall to wall, giving the entry a whimsical atmosphere.]

[personal profile] xp_tarot This has made a lot folks smile today! The staff was delighted your short note.

So, update!

Haven't figured out the unstick thing. But! Kyle is on the ceiling again, and while Mary Poppins is a classic it turns out he can't hold chocolate chip cookies all too well up there.

Picture this:

I ran to catch the falling cookie, like one does, and went to parkour with a sweet flip off the wall and I landed there. On the wall. Like a superhero. I also caught the cookie.

Currently rescuing Kyle by walking on walls. Don't worry, he got the cookie back. Bigger questions: do I get to join the spider crime fighting club? "Spider-shot." "Long-spider." We'll workshop the name.

A big thank you to everyone who came out to help or hang Sunday trunk or treat and last night's encore bonfire at the DXC! It was an awesome time with so many happy children.

I got a few texts about the entirely convincing children pretending to be demons.

Don't worry! A badass lady with armor and a glowing sword told me that they were "obnoxiously enthusiastic about the consuming the soul of the night" (her words), but I feel like they really added to the fun, and I guess soul, of the night.

Thank you all again!

I'm running super low on good feels. Hit me with your best wholesome memes, animal feeds or whatever else puts a smile on your face. Hit me as hard as you can with the good stuff.

Everything is a bit of a blur here, but

Wanda Fi & I had a brilliant idea to get Topaz or Avalon back. It went just perfectly until it didn't, so you lot may be noticing some big weird at the big house. It all feels wrong, luck-wise. Just...

Wanda and Fi are fine. We're luck drunk and I'm the one sober enough to get this out. We're fine. Avalon didn't open back up, but something did.

Nothing is too snapped backwards. At least this weekend will be interesting?

We're fine.

Guys.

Guys.

Guys.

It is me. Only not me, probably, but I've been spoofed and it is absolutely perfect.



Of course, I would never steal that nice lady's tomato. I would most definitely hug Big Bird.

For who knows where and when I might find food again?

Dear journal:

My power works better when I actively trying to not be smart.

Err, really really trying to not think. Balls of your feet kind of thinking?

Basically, luck is stupid.

Have you ever just been struck dumb by the idea of who Hollywood might cast to play you in a bio pic of your life?

I'm here to ask the hard questions.
xp_longshot: (Debonair)
Guys.

So, forever ago I starred as Mr. Darcy in a Lifetime Channel Original Movie Adaptation of Pride and Prejudice set in a Modern Coffeeshop. It got delayed because it was, and I was assured of this, too powerful for cable. But! They have released it! After five years!

I am hosting a premiere party in our suite. I have snacks. Come, celebrate.

Plus, I do not know why they decided to make Elizabeth a mermaid, but I think it was a bold and innovative choice.

So, this is a thing that came across my timeline.

I find myself more inspired to take ridiculous selfies defying death instead of warned. Something awesome. Legendary. Trend-worthy.

No one tops ridiculous and awesome like teenagers, spies, and superpeople. What thoughts do you lot have?

Hi everyone! Wade says he is still alive and safe in South Sudan! He sends hugs.

I bet he also apologies for leaving so abruptly and not talking to everyone individually, but reading minds isn't on my imdb resume. Let's all send him and North good vibes for a safe return.

Blizzards.

How you people choose to live in this without any good snowboarding still confuses me, but we should make something out of this weather.

Also please remember to apply proper layers! Hypothermia is no joke.

Pity you all couldn't join us, but Yellowstone is amazing. So good to get out of New York.

Wade is currently winning at apex predator bingo. I have a strategy for tomorrow.

Long Night

Come watch this Spongebob in the downstairs living room with me, because you shouldn't be alone. I've scrounged what games I can and there's ice cream and chocolate.

Fun fact: In South Africa, Spongebob is called GeelSponsie Paantsensquare.

(No, not really)
