River ,'Trash'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
(and I know it is useless to say this, because I totally grok that this is about one's own self-image, and hairpats are neither here nor there, but, crikey, I can't leave it unsaid) you are a strikingly attractive woman. I'm gobsmacked
I agree heartily with Fay re: Anne and also re: Fay herself.
Wait... Quenya or Sindarin?
Sindarin. There simply aren't enough examples, even in the notes, to build a reasonable lexicon of Quenya. Christopher has, apparently, become quite agitated and cranky about this, considering the insane clamor coming from the linguistic fanboys.
Okay, getting ready to transfer hotels and mindset. Going from family vacation to professional conference headspace. Also going from very nice, serviceable Residence Inn to more upscale Radisson Wardman Park.
Zoo today as well.
Happy Day Late Birthday Seska!
Happy Belated Birthday, Seska!!! I hope you had a great day!
The Girl is sitting next to me with one sock on. "Why do you have one sock on?" I ask. "I just do," she says.
Did she say this like the Cat in Coraline?
Sindarin. There simply aren't enough examples, even in the notes, to build a reasonable lexicon of Quenya. Christopher has, apparently, become quite agitated and cranky about this, considering the insane clamor coming from the linguistic fanboys.
I'm enough of a fangirl to be able to call up the names of the languages from memory but not enough of a fangirl to know the state of the languages themselves. Poor Christopher.
Barb, have fun storming the castle the Radisson.
Wait... Quenya or Sindarin?
Suddenly I feel a certain geek inadequacy. I'm writing a fantasy novel and this is meaningless to me. That seems wrong.
Basically, Sindarin is your common or garden-variety elvish, and Quenya is the EVEN MORE MARY SUE elvish spoken by the even more elfy elves who are too snooty for Middle Earth.
OK, speaking as a mostly-non-fanboy... WTF? They already have one made-up language but that's not good enough for them?
OK, Trek just has Klingon, right? Star Wars has no made up languages, right? (I mean, no one's tried to figure out the language Chewey or RD-D2 speaks, right?)
