The first prompt is iris (bonus pink rose) indicating wisdom, hope, faith among other things. I do love irises though not as much as evil_little_dog. Unfortunately mine are all gone now. Not one has survived the monster my garden has become. I am trying to have hope I can save it. It took a nice blood sacrifice out of my leg today as I was cutting out trees. Maybe that will help.

I have hope that my new chair will be nice and comfortable (and not in my way) for years to come. The delivery people arrived early and it was pretty hysterical because Rocket was NOT having it. He wanted to hide but he didn't want to take his eyes off the men. He stood in the computer room doorway almost out of sight yelling stranger danger at the top of his lungs. Pretty much everyone was laughing at him.

My chair -


I have hope that one of the three stories I submitted to anthologies today will be accepted. Even if they don't, I SUBMITTED them. I'm trying and that's always a good thing.

What isn't a good thing according to Rocket is that new chair. How dare I? Also it smells like new fabric so he's on the couch stealing my triceratops plushie

I get to share my wisdom routinely as a professor but two weeks ago I was challenged to share it with 30 ten year olds in stem camp. I wondered if I was as wise as I should like. Also I'm feeling that as I open my package of frozen red bean steam buns in 'peach shapes'


I also hope this makes you laugh

Wow, those are some “buns”!

I love the chair—looks super comfy!

[cornerofmadness]

Ah yes, the good old nipple buns. side eyes China

thanks, the chair is great

[e_k_braveman]

Your kitty with a dino plushie is soooo cute, I want to cuddle them both! Maybe even on the comfy chair.

Those buns definitely have some nice shapes ;p

[cornerofmadness]

Thanks. Rocket loves to cuddle more than any cat I've ever had (too bad he's technically not mine. Someone abandoned him at the apt complex and he prefers outside most of the time but I'm the one he likes to crash with)

those buns are perky

[badfalcon]

Ooh that chair looks very comfortable - I hope it is! And Rocket does look very put-upon, poor thing!

[cornerofmadness]

The new chair is very comfortable and Rocket is still mad about it

[spikedluv]

The chair looks super comfy! The story about Rocket made me chuckle.

[cornerofmadness]

The chair is comfy and Rocket is nuts

[under_the_silk_tree]

I love the color of your new chair! I can just picture Rocket yelling at everyone. I had a cat like that she was a hoot.

[cornerofmadness]

Rocket was hysterical. Wish I had time to record his little meltdown.

And thanks. I was worried about the color since they didn't have it in stock and I was basing it off a computer screen. I like it too

[suzume]

Ah, poor Rocket. But it looks like a great chair though.


(also I totally laughed out loud about the red bean steam buns)

[cornerofmadness]

It's a great chair.

You should have seen me in the kitchen when I slid those buns out of the packaging

[suzume]

Wonderful!

Ha! I can only imagine!

[cornerofmadness]

Shakes my head at China. Peaches!

[suzume]

Seriously!

[silveradept]

Good looking chair, and hooray for submissions! (And also, "peach" buns and having a cat that both loves you and wants to protect you from all of the world outside.)

[cornerofmadness]

Thanks so much

[galerian_ash]

Ouch for blood sacrifices, but I do hope it will help!

Rocket is such a cutie, I love the photo and his reaction to the delivery people -- also, that chair looks sooo comfortable!

Good luck with the stories you submitted! Like you say, even if they don't get accepted you still did it, so great work!

And yes, those "peach shapes" sure made me laugh XD

[cornerofmadness]

I got all the baby trees out of the garden so it was worth it.


the chair is lovely and Rocket is a goof.

I'd rather go down swinging than never taking my chance.

Those 'peaches'

[snowynight]

The chair looks comfortable! Rocket and the plushie are very cute, and the buns look nice!

[cornerofmadness]

thanks so much

[enemytosleep]

The chair looks super comfy and Rocket is adorable. I feel like I had more to say, but the peaches took me tf out. xD Hopefully they tasted good!

[cornerofmadness]

thanks. The chair is comfy.

You should have seen me in my kitchen when I opened my peach buns. they did taste good

[dr_zook]

Haha, the peaches! Excellent, thank you for sharing. :D I hope you didn't hurt yourself too badly during gardening!

[cornerofmadness]

thanks. It was just some minor scratches in the garden

peaches, yeah sure they're peaches

[vriddy]

Loving the cat picture :D And those buns... hahaha XD

[cornerofmadness]

thanks. The cat is a brat and those buns...

[stardewdreaming]

Your cat looks adorable!

[cornerofmadness]

Thanks

[asphaltcowgrrl]

That chair looks like it'll be comfy! Aw, Rocket is adorable, too. Good luck with your submissions! The hardest part is getting it out there. LOL @ the buns!

[cornerofmadness]

thanks so much. The chair is very comfy. It really is hard to get things out there but it's the only way to do it.

[asphaltcowgrrl]

Yay for a comfy chair! Agreed, and you'll never know unless you give it a shot. GOOD LUCK.

[cornerofmadness]

Thanks. I've sold three this year so I'm already ahead of last year.

[asphaltcowgrrl]

That's amazing, congrats!

[cornerofmadness]

Thanks
