draconic_girl has recorded podfic of my story Bob and the Kittie Kats. So if you want to hear about the Way bros being turned into cats, go download here and listen.

You know what else is awesome? no_tags. I still haven't read many stories but the ones that I have are fantastic. So much fic -- quality fic -- that was produced in only a week. It's very impressive.

Corey headed off to Paris on Thursday. He didn't leave until 10:30 at night, which led to the amusing sight of hanging in a cold car park watching most of the girls who were going wandering around in their onesies. Especially so as most were animal related, so there were cows, tigers and pigs everywhere. Sadly the boys let the side down, only one of them wearing awesome comic panelled pj bottoms.

Today is also Corey's 16th birthday. It's weird him not being here, and I miss him, but he's spending his 16th at Eurodisney with a group of his friends. As birthdays go that has to be a good way to spend it, and we'll have our own birthday dinners next week so will have time as a family then.

ETA: I was just reading the interview with Gerard where he talks about building the studio, and every time they mention the compound I'm reminded of Making the Tour and Nsync. Now I'm sure My Chem's won't have a bowling alley or jet skies, but it could. I'm sure they'd all look fabulous in wet suits.

Sixteenth birthday in Paris? Amazing! I hope he has a great time!

(I realise it's a different perspective from England but the idea of a schooltrip to Paris just boggles me.)

[turps]

He's having a blast apparently. The schedule they had was brutal, it would have killed me off.

To be honest. It boggles me a little too, even if France is pretty close.

Sixteenth birthday in Paris. Hard to beat that. *g*

Can you imagine Ray in a wetsuit with his hair all bushed out on top??? Makes me giggle (and a little hot).

[turps]

Too right. Then he gets to celebrate during the week too.

I can imagine him like that, and a very nice picture it is too. The wet suit tight against his body, hair all crazy and backlit by the sun. Of course this is before he goes in the water as after he'd look like a wet rat *g*

Happy birthday to Corey and congrats to you for getting to this stage of parenting! It sounds like a great celebration for him. . .

[turps]

Parenting. Every stage brings its own issues, as I'm sure you well know.

Yeah. They've been doing a lot of stuff, and we gave the teacher some money so Corey got a birthday cake. Even a country away we can be embarrassing parents *g*

[rikes]

Happy birthday to Corey! :D

[turps]

I'll tell him you said so. If he ever gets in touch again *g*

(my brother and his kids are also at Eurodisney right now - the world, it is small)

How is that adorable little boy you brought to meet my in Whitby 16 now, having an awesome time in Paris? Crazy!

Happy birthday to him, and happy mum-anniversary to you - you did good :D

[turps]

The world really is small and time crazy.

He phoned last night and sounded so incredibly grown up, a country away and asking about buying gifts for his cousins.

Thank you ♥

There was almost too many stories in no_tags this year! I haven't read more than a handful yet.

I've only heard about onesies being popular among the lower teens here in Sweden, I've never seen any. It must look hilarious.

No way he's sixteen!!! I refuse to believe it! But tell him happy birthday from me anyway :-)

I think I prefer not to think of My Chem in association with bowling allies and jet skies. Just think of all the bodily harm they cold do themselves! So much safer to just imagine it having a really awesome selection of comics, DVDs, and coffee :-)

[turps]

I was happily reading no tags then had to stop, and now I'm way behind. I hope to get more read soon as I'm enjoying them.

Onesies look so weird on actual grown people. I'm sure they must be comfortable but they're not really outside wear.

I did :D

I'm sure their compound will have rooms for gaming and a state of the art coffee bar, maybe a small gym. I'd like to think there would be lots of sofas for napping, too.

[frausorge]

Happy birthday Corey! Sweet sixteen in Paris, wow. That's pretty high living! And congratulations to you too.

(I have to ask though... what is a onesie in this context? To me it's pretty strictly a baby's garment.)

Now I am picturing Mikey in a wetsuit. He would have very sleek lines, I am sure.

[turps]

Thank you!

Onsies are pretty much adult versions of the ones babies wear, just without the crotch snappers. They've got really popular here, mainly due to reality tv people wearing them out on the street during the day.

Mikey would look awesome in a wetsuit I'm sure.

No_tags was beyond awesome this year. Tons of good fic and enough different pairings to keep things interesting. I read most of the fic pretty quickly. It was the leaving feedback what took me forever and a half. /o\

I'm pretty sure that Corey had a fantastic birthday. ^_^

I'm sure they'd all look fabulous in wet suits.

*thinks about it* True, but one can help wondering how long would the Way bros would stay out in the sun w/o melting. LOL!

[turps]

No_tags is such a great challenge. I was thrilled it ran again.

I still have more to read, I was doing so well, too. I may try and get more read today considering people are talking BRBB posting dates now.

Corey had a great birthday, yeah.

Ahahahah. The Way bros are not sun lounging people, I agree.
