merridiaIn a bad mood because the internet went out last night with only a couple of minutes of Strange New Worlds left, but at least it's Friday! Also a long weekend, but my elderly aunt is coming over for a visit, so it will probably not be that relaxing. :\ Also STILL haven't been able to watch Dynamite (because of the aforesaid internet shitting the bed), so I just said fuck it and watched the short YouTube highlights before work this morning, stray thoughts to follow!

Okay, time to take some painkillers and do some work, I guess!

cityarcadeTime for a meme!
Clearly, sometimes what we need most is advice from a stranger. Tag in anonymously with letters seeking advice about anything at all, in the vein of columns such as Dear Abby. Relationships, careers, friendship, sex, what to have for dinner tonight, how to get a blood stain out of silk, or whatever strikes your pup's fancy from the mundane to the complex. Others will then respond accordingly, anonymously or not. You can post as many letters or responses as you'd like but just remember to keep it all IC.
Alternately, structure these posts the way you might see in a subreddit like r/AITA or r/relationships rather than a letter to an advice column!

re: Pranks, jokes, hoaxes, and tricks
Aug. 26th, 2025 10:12 ammerridiaCurrently getting me through the day: backstage stills from Forbidden Door and the thought of an episode of Twin Peaks when I get home. Also the fact that in just three short weeks I will be in London hyping myself up for the All Out go-home episode of Dynamite!! My first live event since the Calgary Stampede Dynamite last summer!! I NEED IT LIKE OXYGEN.
Speaking of hot hot summer days (oh my god it was so hot out that weekend and I spent hours beforehand going on rides), our long-overdue heat wave is underway and I am savouring every minute of it.
I have impulse purchased a bunch of cute booties because they were on sale and had free shipping. Time to do a bit of work to pay for them, I guess!

Aug. 25th, 2025 11:29 ammerridiaBack to work after a lovely little (so little, they are all so little) weekend. Finished my The Leftovers rewatch. Saw Relay. Spent some time outside, because we're FINALLY getting a week or so of summer weather now, at the ass-end of August. Watched some fuckin' GRAPS. This is a pay-per-view post.

re: Returning to the Past
Aug. 21st, 2025 10:49 ammerridiaCDK is not working right now, so... update.
It's Thursday! My Forbidden Door: London hype ranking remains unchanged after the Glasgow Dynamite, except my #1 is even higher and my #last is even lower somehow? I do hope Nick's injury is a work, because I am VERY happy about Luchasaurus/Killswitch finally being back (and also alive! HE ALMOST WASN'T), and absolutely adore Cope getting back together with his evil ex-husband only to immediately realize this means he also now has to deal with Christian's many, many enemies. That heel Jurassic Express run is gonna hit like crack. As for the tag title match, while I AM happy for Brodido getting on the card, it only being so that the Hurt Syndicate don't have to put over FTR clean is so goddamn lame. Match should still fuck, at least? And Bozilla is the Stardom rep in the four-way, and I do like her, but she's not my good good tiger girl, so yeah, ORDER UNCHANGED. I stayed up... way too late to watch this last night, lol.
Ugh, they took away my tiny little department's dedicated porter, just moved him over to the drive-thru with the rest of them, and it's such a pain to find guys to move vehicles when I need them moved, since he's still the only one of them with key vault access. Also he takes care of his disabled wife so the 7/7 schedule is really bad for him??? This sucks. (aaaaaaand, literally right after I complained about it here, the decision was reversed, hooray! we will remain a fantastic foursome taking our first steps~)
3. Do You Wish You Could Return to Moments From Your Past?
My god, yes! So many brilliant memories, though the magic may be diluted some from the revisitations. Probably worth it, though! Also when I get the urge to overeat, I could just go back to a time when I had a really good sandwich or something.

Aug. 20th, 2025 11:06 ammerridiaQuick update while I take a break from figuring out how to book a B-line AMVIC. Life is boring, but All Out is exactly one month away!!!!! Soon things will matter to me again~
No particularly interesting movies hitting our theatre this weekend, so hopefully Relay is good. If there were any non-singalong KPop Demon Hunters showings, I would try pitching that, but alas! I will simply continue to live in ignorance! At least I've got Forbidden Door on Sunday to keep my spirits up regardless of what's on the big screen.
