That's how we know you're actually Sigrun in a former future alternate whatevs life. 

Now I want to see Fimby in a bunad playing Capture the Flag on Syttende Mai. 
Ideally with a chainsaw.
I crawled out of bed to make this

Heeeeee.
I've been wanting to make an avatar/custom signature storage thread.  Maybe this would be a good time to?

I've only ever had my Chris Hadfield avatar here, but in another life I used these:
 
And there was one other, for a single day, that is lost to the ages.

Huh...I'm fairly certain I had one other avatar before my current strange-being-thing, but I cannot for the life of me remember what it was. My "upload to web" folder doesn't seem to be very helpful, either. One day I'll get around to drawing a new icon thing.

Hmm... I vaguely recall that, but cannot remember what it might have been.

Oh, and I finally got around to changing my icon to a Steller's Jay. (Still trying to decide if a less-blurry picture is in order and, if so, which I should use.)

Welp, the chat died, and it's late.  Time to post something here to make myself do something!

I'm gonna talk with my academic advisor tomorrow about studying abroad!  \o/ 
Time to travel! (Yeah!)  Time to experience! (Yeah!)  Time to expand my horizons! (Heck yeah!)

I'm excited, but I need to get a head start on this if it's gonna happen at all.  ...  Very excited.

Eich, wow, that's awesome!  Where do you think you'll want to study abroad?  I hear Scandinavia is nice...  ;)

I take it that's not for the 2015-6 academic year, but after that? 

When the time comes, you'll probably want to find an apprentice-Thor, to keep the Forum up while you're running with the bulls at Pamplona, or analyzing the fluid dynamics of Roman aqueducts, or something.  But I suppose that's an issue for another day...

And now, I have two weeks to learn to avoid stress ^^

How wonderful! 

PM me if you want to talk about stress.  I had to get over a lot of shyness and angst to become a newspaper reporter (which is all about talking to strangers).

Like Blartnold Blartenegger. Or one of the 300 Blartans.

You so Blart Vader. Fine, my blart will go on.

It's funny how often that phrase ("Fimby NO") appears :P

One day I'll somehow get myself a Norwegian domain by the name Fimby just so I can link to fimby.no whenever it's needed...

if laufey doesn't answer soon I'm just gonna assume you delivered the final blart

Yesterday could really have been my final blarting. I literally just woke up after being unconscious* for a good amount of hours, I'm trying to build my energy levels back with coffee but it's hard when everything on this forum just sends it right back up via the nose.  ;D

*Looks like I went to bed just before the party got REAL good.

Wow, that's on one side very, very funny and on the other just a little bit weird! I'm so glad you don't really need sleep.

You can do that (fimby.no) but it obviously doesn't lead anywhere. I'm slightly concerned about what you'd put on such a domain :P

Oh, I need sleep all right, I just don't really need a healthy sleep schedule, is all

I hope it's not too weird, it was....  a little unsettling how similar I had drawn the picture of Sigrun and your self-insert.... they were too easy to merge.........

It's the funny kind of weird. Climbing a flagpole with a chainsaw? Best 17. May ever! What do you mean "why would you even do that"?
