My day was amazing today. I really am a bad bitch and the universal it girl. Today this attractive ass dude was staring at me and we kept making eye contact and he kept flirting with me. Many dudes flirt with me on the daily but this was different. Then Someone mentioned how I was one of the cool people in my class and how I just get along with anyone. I also been practicing my split and finally got both splits down. I literally slayed with that because me being me…. I’m lazy but I practiced every single day. I try out to be an highstepper today and I made the team. Even this pretty girl who is one of my closest friends said I’d be a pretty highstepper. And I made the team… I love being a popular pretty girl. Literally everyone know and love me. And I mean why not… I’m literally me. I just hit 1.2k on instagram… last month I had 700 so I think that’s a huge improvement but then again I’ve been manifesting like a hundred followers a day. People literally love me so much… I get that princess treatment. Everyone speaks so highly on my name and I love that shit. But yeah life been pretty good lately.. And I made a personal bundle for myself and I’ve been affirming hard lately… now my belly is flat and I have 11 line and with a small ribcage and a super tiny waist.
Anyways thanks for coming to my Ted Talk… I really appreciate it

I've been considering writing regency romance for ages, and one thing I can never decide is whether to use more modern language/turns of phrase or try to make it more Jane-Austeny style. (e.g. contractions: "It's too late, she's gone" vs "It is too late, she has gone.")
I have an answer for this!
So! I read a lot of regency because it’s like, the best romance genre. I read three types:
1: Austin and Heyer - these are your technical queens, reading Georgette Heyer will improve your Regency lingo like NOTHING ELSE, she is IMO, the greatest Regency author of all time. Heyer keeps it proper, Austin keeps it readable. Read both. Also if you can stand the fact that it’s unfinished, read Gaskells Wives and Daughters. 
2: Modern sexy-times - Stephanie Laurens and Julia Quinn. These are modern women writing in this genre and they are more story driven, less about the ‘proper’ way of things and more likely to be readable to modern women. ie: Heyers men can be sexist / overpowered because like... men were back then? They also use more modern writing styles because thats how we write now. Def more modern women, they’ve got more spunk and more ‘modern’ attitudes to events than the classics. 
3: Mills and Boon / Harlequin Romances / Bodice Rippers - you know the type. Gimmie that costume porn, basically. They write either OTT proper or modern sass and both are amazing and readable and....
My point is... what do you want to write? I’m going for a modern take on the genre. I’ve got a modern heroine and a non-asshole of a dude. They have conversations that you don’t see in Austin or Gaskell. My first book is all married sex but book 2 sure as hell aint - UNHEARD OF FOR HAYER. I’m trying to keep my ‘spoken’ parts as formal as possible in FORMAL situations and slightly less rigid over breakfast and between friends:
“My father would never have thought to inform me of such matters, My Lord”
vs
“Shut up, Robert, you’ve never been anything but a pain in my hide,” Jon laughed, dodging the book his friend tossed at his head with an indignant snort.
So what it comes down to is this: just like nowadays, keep the formal language for the formal conversations and for when your characters are not sure how to act, and the informal language for friends and comfortable situations. oldtimey people also code-switched.
If you’ve seen the Kira Knightly P&P, see how Lizzie acts when she’s with Jane vs how she acts with Lady Catherine. 
Also, READ READ READ. You’ll pick up slang and ‘on-dits’ and know when to call someone a ‘cit’ or a ‘toady’ and you’ll know why your hero doesn’t want a pair of highsteppers from Tattersalls, or why your heroine is laughing behind her hand when she sees some young buck trying to flirt with the latest Diamond of the ton....
Book recs: 
The Toll Gate by Heyer - this is my FAVE book of hers, her hero is a giant dork who legit falls head over heels over his lady the instant he sees her. It’s also got a really good mystery plot which is nice too. 
These Old Shades and The Devils Cub by Heyer - I personally don’t rate Shades but it’s about the DAD from Devils Cub which I have read at least 20 times, and it’s also based more in France which might be good for you to get that powdered wig goodness, which you don’t really get in Regency. Cub is just... wanna see a fucking asshole of a dude get shot by a girl? wanna see him get fucking twisted up in love and not know how to cope? reeeead ittttt.
P&P and Persuasion - Austin. Of course you’ve read them, but like, read them again just because. I’ve read P&P so many times I can quote it, but sometimes I think I like Persuasion more because I just.... that sexual tension.... 
Stephaine Laurens writes about the same Family - so Start with Devils Bride. The later ones I’m not so hooked on and there are a couple of ... naaaaah moments at some points, but they are good if you don’t expect Heyers level of amazing.
Julia Quinn also writes about interweaving characters and some are really great - you can pretty much pick any of hers up and start reading, but I like ‘How To Marry a Marquis’ just because it’s almost like ‘girl reads a cosmo article on how to snag a hubby’
ANY purple (these are the ‘historical romances’) mills and boon - time to get to the charity shops and get to buying them for 50p. 
once you read these, you’ll see that HOW you write isn’t as important as WHAT you write and it’ll all just... come together. Don’t fall into a trap of thinking you can’t have a character say - ‘well shit’ or have a lady tell someone she can’t be bothered. write it. then later, if it’s too jarring or you spy someone saying ‘oh, worm’, edit it out for something more appropriate. 
but the important thing.... is to write it.

High Stepper American IPA Citrus forward multiple hop addition ale with a full flavored clean finished - at 7% ABV and 90 IBUs, this American IPA is a step up from the average. The High Stepper has a golden chestnut color with well balanced malt profile. The hop notes are larger than life with citrus, floral aromas and flavors. This beer exhibits a personality all on its own with seven hop additions, and will impress the most discerning hop head. #CrookedCan #GetCrooked #HighStepper #AmericanIPA  #PickMeUpPutMeDown  @CrookedCan #crookedcanbrewingcompany #Deliciousness#CraftBeerLovers  #BeerGeek #CraftBeer #WinterGarden #Florida #DrinkLocal #BrewLocal #FloridaCraftBeer #FloridaLocal #DrinkLocal

KCK drill team tradition in jeopardy after theft of expensive drums
Tumblr media
KANSAS CITY, Kan. — A community drill team that “motivates youth in action” has halted performances after thieves steal team equipment.
The Gateway Highstepper’s heartbeat flatline Saturday. Three drums, worth about $2,500, were stolen after a practice in Raytown.
Founder and Dir. Laveda Davis said the two stolen tenor drums have Gateway’s custom gold paint-job and the snare is engraved on the bottom with “GHS”.
“Those are the main drums. So, we’re pretty lost right now,” Davis said. 
Without drums Davis said they can’t perform. 
This week, her team is set to celebrate black history with a performance at the Quindaro Elementary School and march in the Brookside parade.
On St. Patrick’s Day, they’re supposed to compete in the Kansas City Irish parade. Last year, they won.
“For the kids not to be able to do that parade, they’re going to be heartbroken,” Davis said. 
More than 100 kids on the team work hard to compete. But Davis said this drill team is so much more than making music and winning trophies. 
“It’s heart-wrenching because we do work extremely hard for our community,” Davis said. “We are a community drill team.”
It’s about bettering the community and taking care of our youth.
“The kids have to have this outlet in order to not be involved in the dark side of, you know, life,” Davis said.
She’s hoping the drums find their way back home, so they can continue a 22-year tradition — performing in the St. Patrick’s Day Parade. 
“We’re struggling,” Davis said. “We just hope there’s some good people that can help.”
If you see these drums, or can help in anyway, call Ms. Davis at (913) 314-9854 and Mr. Darian Nave at (913) 221-8462.

Orbus VR (PCVR - Oculus)
Tumblr media
It’s a cool spring night in Highsteppe. I just finished gathering supplies for the town chef so he can begin preparing a grand meal for the town’s spring festival. As I leave the kitchen, I stop to enjoy the sights. The town overlooks Kingsport Lake, and on a clear night like this (and if I had a GPU that was a little more powerful), I can almost make out Lakewood Inn from here. Behind me, a group of friends is practicing some new spells they clearly just learned on the town’s practice dummy. Judging by the expletives being uttered, I infer their success rate is not so good.
I went to the gym earlier in the day. Trying to get back into the swing of things and build some muscle. Unfortunately ended up straining a rotator cuff doing some pull ups. Kind of a shame, this ought to set me back a couple weeks, and also my main is a warrior in-game. Pair my pulled cuff with all the king stag farming I did for the town chef earlier, and I’ve had about all I can take for the day. I think I’ll head down to the lake for some fishing.
I slip on a lure I crafted earlier and cast off next to a relaxed looking stranger. He sees that I’m only level 1 at fishing and strikes up a conversation. 
“First day, huh?” 
“Second,” I reply. “Just got my rod today, though. Anything biting this evening?”
“Caught a few sunfish, but not much else. It’s my first day fishing, too, actually, and I’m having some trouble triggering my warrior combos. Any tips you could share with me?”
We chat for a while, nice guy actually. I pick up a Northwest accent - he’s from Minnesota. One or two fish caught turn into several more. A third voice interrupts from the dirt path behind us:
“I don’t know why you two are casting here - you can catch bass down by the Inn…” 
This catches my interest and came at an opportune moment, because despite being in the middle of a surprisingly pleasant conversation, I’m looking for a way out. I turn to my buddy: “I’m going to try for some bass up the road a ways, want to join?”
He says he’s going to kick it here for a while and maybe we’d catch up later sometime. Never saw him again.
Later that day I reflect on my experiences in Highsteppe. Why is everyone so friendly? And why did I leave my new friend when I was enjoying myself? Am I the most antisocial person playing this VR MMORPG?
