I automatically pronounce everyone's name with a Spanish accent. I speak all foregin languages with a heavy Spanish accent except English and - you guessed it - Spanish.

Hehe. I still love what fea means in Spanish. I don't remember why, but I was talking to some friends and happened to mention you (so Tum or Mnemo must have been there). The person looks at me for a moment and I just kind of snickered before I explained that that had nothing to do with it.

*dies*

I wanna be with you people! Take me to your leader!

No worries. I've been whining, pouting, and all other sorts of irritating whimpering noises since Saturday. Just ask Nienna, Formy, B88, and Mirandir: I've been calling them every few hours just to feel like I'm involved.

Lol. But you can hang out if you feel better (right?). I'm screwed.

*whines, pitches a fit*

I say next year I just stow away in someone's bags and go 'missing' for a week.

Bostonmoot Sneak Peek:

Yours truly has now had her cheek kissed by Glirdan, Shasta, phantom, Formy, Rune, and B88.

Now don't you wish you had come?

That is an absoluelty wonderful video! TGEW and I have our own private pronunciations for user names, some of which sound quite similar to yours. I would love to see someone take a stab at my name as well becuase I really have no idea how it should be pronounced. Like Loslote I usually tend to favour Spanish, being the only language other than English I have any ability with, but 'Laurin-K' just sounds coarse and unmelodious.

Fea....was I perhaps slightly....oh I don't know.....not all there, to put it simply?? Because if this was in reference to New Years, I don't remember doing that.....

You should all look forward to it. There's a wereduckling involved.
That fridge was a pain...And if no one believes us that we cleaned, check the Facebook group!! I have documented evidence!! And that wereduckling of ours is going to turn out to be a force to be reckoned with when she starts playing Werewolf!

*Save* For the first epically long Bostonmoot post...and since I don't have the time yet to explain all the great Downers I met and spent time with at the moot, here are a few highlights.

1. I challenge Fea as the most directionally inept getting lost trying to follow the "baggage claim" signs at Logan as well as getting marginally lost in the city of Boston with Glirdan.

2. Rune calls me a wanker and thinks I need to explore pubs more, as my idea of the lunatic irishman who talked to us, was actually quite normal.

3. Myself bragging about probably the most delicious turkey you will ever see (sorry Enca ). And overall a fabulous New Year's Eve dinner, compliments to Celuien (who defeated the turkey's neck and gizzard), Glirdan, Brinn, Lari, and assistance from many others.

4. Mira taking too much delighti n pounding pretzels and chicken.

5. Form wanting to marry me, with lots and lots of glomping between us

6. Everyone slipping into bad english accents, and taking up words like "rubbish" due to Kath.

7. Did you know wilwa loves Boston?

8. community calls with sally.

9. Fea managing to be sick the entire time (and of course the absolute worst time)

10. Many, many werewolf games which include the evil, but most adorable, wereduckling. And you guessed it, a fake ranger reveal by me countered by Shasta.

Plus

11. the phantom...uncloaked.

But most of all, remembering rule #3. Programming yourself to stop calling Christian (and everyone) Mac/by their 'Downers name. Now reprogramming yourself to stop typing Christian, when you want Mac.
