Hey USA people,

I was just just able to order 2 3-packs and several single MIKA Pilot pens from Amazon.com (vendor is The Quilted Bear, LTD). They don’t have the whole variety that’s available in Europe, and I didn’t see any boxes. They’re expensive pens, and there’s a two week shipping time. But they’re there.

So, I was back in the store again today where I found the pens last saturday and I saw that a few of them where gone already! Wich is very quick and unexpected, since this isn't a big city or something. Maybe there are hidden Mikafans around here I don't know of?  

Maybe the buyer just liked the bright design especially in the middle of full winter colors all around.

"I had everything and I would be hugely successful"

Thanks for that translation because my Chrome browser translated it as “he told me to continue and that I had everything. that I could make a cardboard”, which made absolutely no sense to me! Now , with your translation, it makes a LOT more sense!!

It’s strange, but I’ll wait.🤞🏼

If it doesn’t arrive I’ll give up because I read that I have to forward the mail...so I can’t try without the mail.

Thank you both anyway!😊

 

I got mine 2:08 PM EST 2/16. It runs thru Wednesday- could you re-sign up for the email list and still get it if you don’t get it soon?

I sent mine in. I have to try. I need more color in my life!

I just figured out how I’m going to get some of the pens — if my niece doesn’t mind. She’s going to college in The Netherlands (dual citizenship). I’m going to trade on my favorite aunt status!

Oh sorry for that! Is it usual at your home? Or is it the video which does that?

I think it’s the video. I’ve no problems with YouTube, Vimeo, or watching thru the French TV channel  — wait, I watch the TV station using Chrome browser and I was watching this using Safari browser. Let me try it using Chrome and see if it makes a difference.

Hi!

Here is my Vimeo link for the first episode with subtitles we made with @endless_eight.

Enjoy!

It keeps going to a black screen for me. The first time I saw about 35 minutes, then black even when I tried to skip ahead. A couple hours later I tried again, starting where it ended before, and I saw about 4 more minutes of it before it went black again. But I did enjoy what I did see. It was nice to understand what was being said for those parts — thank you for that.

When it asks for date, does it mean today’s date, or birthdate?

WTF is this?!!

I think they’ve cross-switched him with someone else. I just looked him up on IMDB (because of this) and these aren’t listed. It does list him as an actor in 8 films (most concert videos, plus two for Helping Haiti, something called Obsessive Rhythms where he plays a pianist, and Zoolander 2.) He’s on the soundtrack of 60 films. Maybe he’s on the soundtrack of these?

This is Me from The Greatest Showman soundtrack

Wow, and you're from New York? That's far. How have you guys made that work? 

 

I've visited a few times as well, because my parents live there, but it's going to be so different actually living there and getting to know people from there. It'd be interesting to talk to someone who is actually from there about it. But if you have any input, I'd be happy to hear it! 

 

I know who you're talking about. We used to be best friends on here. I'm pretty sure I'm moving close to where she was from, if I remember correctly. Just in North Carolina. Is that creepy that I remember that? We were online friends after all. 

 

Geez, Dee. I haven't talked to you in literally years. Sorry for being MIA. How are you doing? I miss talking to you on chat. 

Basically because neither of us can picture life without the other in it, but there are real reasons we can’t live together yet. In another 2-4 years we’ll do it. We talk every night, text throughout the day if things happen that we want to share now (instead of waiting for 9 pm call) or need help on now (ditto). We spend 5-6 days together every 4-6 weeks and about 2-3 two week vacations together a year.(although lately some of those “vacations” have been me (& him) going out to Texas to help my brother with my parents. Usually I go to his place in the winter and he comes up in the Summer and we split fall and spring. Whenever I’m hospitalized he comes up during and after to take care of me (I’ve some chronic illness issues).

We’ve both been living alone a long time before we met (at an online discussion site),  and liked being single.  We’d dated others but never married anyone. I lived with another guy for awhile but ended up with restraining orders. (When young I’d an unerring eye for falling for “the bad guy”, then I took some years off dating & into therapy to sort myself out.)   So I’ve dated enough bad ones to appreciate a good one when I found him, and realized at my age it’s worth the effort to keep it strong, yet this way we each get our alone time. For us, it works.

Where in N.C. are you headed?

Wondering if there's anyone from North Carolina lurking around here? I'm moving there in the summer. Just wondering, some advice on moving to the south would be nice. 

My partner lives in SC (14 year long distance relationship, so I’ve been to SC a lot). I also have an aunt and uncle in Wilmington NC who I visit (and cousins in other southern states). I’m not first choice since I don’t live there, but if nobody better turns up, maybe I can help.

Hi I’m heather I’m from Seattle, wa and been a fan of Mika’s for a while! I found out about him while listening to “popular song” and have been obsessed since. I haven’t seen him live YET!! But I’ve been dying to. It’s crazy because in my state hardly no one knows about him except for my friends so I’ve started a fan club in my school to start bringing attention to him.

Hi Heather,  Welcome! I’m from NY (but not NYC). I haven’t seen him either & I’d really like to. I discovered him a few years ago and became YouTube obsessed (plus bought all his music). 

We’re doing YouTube links now? Not sure how to do that. This is an experiment.

Am listening to old cds tonight. Currently,

Love So Soft - Kelly Clarkson

I wish I was the Moon - Neko Case

Baby, it’s cold outside (not sure who’s singing it this time. Have heard about 9 versions in last week)

Marie-Jeanne - Garou

Try - Pink
