OT... But WTF is going on with the world's weather???? A suburb of the city I live in just got hit by a TORNADO! @daveom: Albany, Auckland NZ hit by a #tornado www.youtube.com/watch?v=m4f4-A-enA4@liammcewan: Tornado just hit Albany, Auckland. One dead, many injured. Albany mall roof collapsed. @monique_TV3: Harbour bridge in Auckland shutting now. #tornado Holy Shit! I live less than a minute away from the border of Avondale.  God! Now I think about it, I've been hearing sirens for the last 20 minutes and there was this really fierce downpour about then as well. Aloha is in a blackout right now too. She said outages are island-wide, but I don't know if it has to do with weather (I asked, but haven't heard). Usually you don't have random massive blackouts for no reason though. Take care, catzmadam!!! Going to have to send you truckloads of good-luck charms before long. ETA: Aloha just answered me; yes, their blackouts are because of a series of storms all over the island. This is getting freaky. |

Nice try. Remember I know precisely how many miles you traveled for Adam last year...   Hey, now, these are my delusions. We don't need any of them there statistics muddying the waters ... (Maybe we can get a group plan discount for our therapy)Nah, I'll stay and play in the delusional waters. It's nice and warm here in the shallow end ;D But, OMG Catzmadam--- WTF is going on down there???? Please take care of yourself, 'k? |

It is a little difficult to claim not to be a BSC Adam fan when I sit and watch 13 minutes of a video blog in a language I don't undertand (and do it more than once) and then watch a grainy, black and white 5 min video of people sleeping. If I were the only one, I'd be nervous. But since I know I'm not, I'm attributing it to either the cult mentality or aliens putting transmitting fillings in my teeth. LOL, I gave up after a minute. I thought, "Seriously, it's come to this? You're watching video of people sleeping?" I hope that means my sanity is still completely intact. :-/ You can pretend to be saner than the rest of us Susie, but I know better. Twitter is not only the devil but a tattle tale. 'Fess up! |

I'm fine... lol. I hit submit on my post and then ran out into the driveway like a 12 year old to see if I could see anything :  I don't think the one near to me was anything major - if anything at all, but the one on the North Shore seems more serious. We rarely get these - a small twister now and then, but this is a bit bigger I think. A small drop in the bucket to what our Alabama Atopper's have just gone through. The weather world-wide is really scary right now. |

I just read Q3's post about Adam being an expert in Fan Relationship Management and the art of strategic self-disclosure, and it's so apropos, considering today's tweets. Adam's fans have been flailing all day over his tweet and pic with Sauli, with all kinds of assumptions and descriptions of Adam's relationship. LOL, I've done it too, but, as usual, we know very little about what is real. Doesn't matter, because we adore Adam, and we are happy when he is happy, and I'm sure he knows this.
Just thinking what he accomplished with his tweets today:
Made a very simple statement-- "Rakastan" (I love) with no smileys or exclamation points. It's like an answer to a question that he didn't wait to have asked.
Made many thousands of fans very, very happy for him, and made us feel even closer to him than before.
Sent out a pic himself that surely would have been ninja'd before too long. It was his decision and his announcement to make.
Once again reiterated his friendship for Tommy.
Gave us a beautiful intimate image of two men presumably in love. Not a "caught" moment from a pap or a fan with no boundaries, but an image that he owns and is proud of. #Realness
And I'm not saying that this is all cold strategy. It's Adam being himself-- unapologetic and smart and very, very in-tune with himself and with his relationship with his fans. It's Adam being open, but on his own terms. Pretty damn awesome.

It's fucking awesome. I didn't have a chance to read what Q3 had said until long after we'd been flailing about the pic all day. It was so funny reading the early part of the thread thinking, "Okay, when's the picture going to hit??" New page, oh dang, more discussion Q102 poll (not that it wasn't interesting ), but there was definitely a feeling of idle chit chat then WHAM!! Hee!! I was thinking exactly this as I read Q3's post and ruminating on what an interesting step he took today, on his own terms. It wasn't just them walking down the street and getting photographed by random paps, but an actual declaration. A photo of his boyfriend, on his lap, heads touching, his left hand grasping Sauli's arm tight. So sweet.  <=== happy tears Who me, ratting myself out on Twitter, Aspen??   |

Still smiling and feeling good! Reading atop at bed and going to work after four hours sleep. Here's another vid. Pojat nukkuu. Boys are sleeping.I like this one. Song: Snow Patrol: Chasing carsThis is the vid that I must have watched a dozen times. And then I downloaded Chasing Cars fr iTunes. |
