YAY! for Mélusine! I know the feeling though, when I'm afraid of something I go in full mode procrastination which in turn only makes me more afraid of the thing...


I just randomly came across this video and yup, that looks familiar. On the worst days some waterfalls fall sideways too.

There are SSSS meetups starting up all over the planet!

When did this start happening?  I've seen the idea discussed before, but no actual confirmed dates and locations.

There's a thread for meetups.

EDIT: The first documented Minnion Meet-Up was at MAGFest in late January.
https://ssssforum.com/index.php?topic=247.msg16678#msg16678

So far, the S.F. get-together is the only other one with a definite time/date.  But I expect that will change as people's summer travel plans coalesce. 

In fact, our Northwest U.S. contingent has its own Meet-Up thread now.

You must have a good memory, because I don't. I remember Nina (not La Niña) from this January because it flattened a third of the forest and took out the electricity grid for days.

Ooh I've seen this on tumblr, I think. Somebody had an idea of going upwind and scattering a huge bag of mini marshmallows just to see people get pelted by them, if memory serves.

I've been trying to walk against wind like this only once, usually I wouldn't leave the house if the weather was like this. I got absolutely nowhere until a helpful guy came along and walked me out of the worst pretty much the same way as the old man got helped in the video. :D

apperently some minions will meet up in sweden tomorrow, due to travelling.

I have a minion living not far away from me, we met but technically it does not count as a meet up.
First that met were starfallz, Eich and Flik I thing on that convention which star helps organizing.

Oh, it's that time of the year. Come to think of it, there's just next week left for me too before I get a long break. I need to start planning how to spend it.

There was a thunderstorm here the other day. And hail.
