ladynorbert asked: I wrote an AU where Roy was the fire chief in the city of Amestris. The papers called him the Flame Alchemist because he was so good at getting fire victims out alive. Fuery was the emergency services dispatcher, Falman was the firehouse cook, Havoc and Breda were firemen. Grumman was the chief of police and Riza was a cop. They met when Roy saved Riza from a burning building in the line of duty.
THATS A REALLY REALLY REALLY GREAT AU

Ten Thousand Villages at the Lehigh Valley Mall will be hosting a donation drive for Turning Point of the Lehigh Valley throughout the month of March. Turning Point is the Valley’s only non-profit organization dedicated to eliminating domestic violence. Bring your donation of any of the requested things throughout the month, and you’ll receive a coupon good for 25% off any full-priced item in the store. (The coupon will be good only at the Lehigh Valley location of Ten Thousand Villages.)
The official kickoff for the drive will be March 8th, International Women’s Day. The associates (including me) will be sharing stories of women artisans in developing countries who have experienced domestic upheavals in their own lives. We will be offering free samples of Kusherie, an Egyptian rice and lentil dish, and handing out complimentary papyrus bookmarks while supplies last. These things will only be given out on International Women’s Day itself; however, you can bring your donation to the store and receive your coupon at any time during the month of March.
Here’s the list of items Turning Point has requested for the drive:
- Flash drives
- Diapers
- Cleaning supplies, especially liquid dish soap and antibacterial wipes
- Bed pillows
- Twin-size blankets
- Battery powered lanterns
- Children’s books (in both English and Spanish)
- Women’s deodorant
- Liquid hand soap
- Batteries
- Flashlights
- $3 all-day bus passes
- Sleepwear for women and children (all sizes)
- Women’s razors
- Used cell phones
- Gift cards to grocery stores, Wal-mart, Target, Wawa, or local pharmacies
Please spread the word!
In other news, today I rewrote the lyrics to a Rodgers and Hammerstein song to be included in an advertising email for my store.
I can’t confirm it officially, but I strongly suspect I actually have the weirdest job in the entire company.
A few of the many photographs I’ve taken at the former Bethlehem Steel in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. The company has been abandoned for years; the property is now being developed over a course of ten years into something new, but they’re incorporating many of the old buildings into the project. It’s really something else the way trees and things have taken over the land. The whole place is essentially caught between what it was and what it will be. Many of these pictures were taken through the broken windows of the foundry and other buildings. The final shot, the kanji painted on a brick wall, is something else entirely; Bethlehem Steel was the site where the opening of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen was filmed, and the kanji is the only relic left from the shooting.
Just got home from my store’s staff meeting. As we were wrapping things up, my boss got an email. The mall where I work is closed tomorrow.
I’m gonna repeat that.
The Lehigh Valley Mall is closed tomorrow because of Hurricane Sandy.
Okay, NOW I’m officially scared, because this mall doesn’t close for anything.
No, Zuzu, I was not going on a quest, or at least no more than any other day. I was at the Celtic Classic, our annual local celebration of all things from the seven Celtic nations. My two usual partners in crime (tk31085 and midnighttomercy) are both of Irish descent, and I’m of Welsh, so we try to go every year.
I did not buy the axe. It was pretty sweet though.
Andrea and I could not look at the various helmets without saying “Grey Warden gear!”
I sampled Guinness and learned that my lifelong instincts were correct. I really, really, really do not like beer, just as I always suspected. I couldn’t even swallow it - I spit it on the ground.
Still do not possess a “Kilt Inspector” shirt, but maybe next year.
Andrea has, for reasons of her own, added yet another entry to my seemingly endless list of nicknames: “Awesome Laura of Awesomeness.” I don’t ask questions anymore.
This is about an awesome local used bookstore in my area that we need to support so it doesn’t disappear.
The young man in this article is the nephew of my friend Regina. He was horrifically murdered earlier this month while on a trip to Michigan (he was sixteen), and now his family doesn’t have the funds to have his body shipped home for burial.
Please read the article, and share the link. There will be a fundraiser car wash this weekend up in Lehighton, if you know anyone in that area. Be sure to read the comments on the article as well; a collection has been established at a local bank to which you can contribute directly regardless of where you live.
