Well I hoped to rep many people for what they've written during the time I was away but I was unable too...

Fea, hope your life gets less chaotic!

True story! I had to put off running a whole bunch of errands because I forgot today was a holiday and the bank was closed.

Once I've got my new vehicle, it'll be a lot easier to organize my life since I won't have to organize my time based on everyone else's schedules.

Oh, and my real reason for posting: my favorite story that I've written is about an itinerant carney named Quin. I just submitted it for workshop at school, and just yesterday revised it into a new draft. So I'm thoroughly confused to have a new Quin around!

Which of course is poetic justice after I told Nienna that Degas wasn't pronounced the same way that French Painter Day-gahhhh is. She winces every time I say Day-gahss.

Anyway, I'm amused.

I'm almost afraid to say anything, for fear my suspicions might turn out true, and no one answers. Is the place empty?

Just kidding. I know people are still about... er, that is... I hope people are still about.

I see the WW game ended yesterday. I was a little surprised, but I guess I shouldn't be. Time flew this week I guess, despite slow movement here.

Fea, how's life? Are you well?

Gwath, are you getting any inspiration to write?

Nogrod, has your schedule slowed at all? It's the weekend now.

Nienna, want to post something with Aedre? Although Javan is currently right next to Crabannan, I'm sure that we could arrange a meeting. Javan needs to say something to her.

Durelin, it'd be cool to see something posted for Coenred. I kind of don't want to write anything more there since I've written two posts for my characters at the training grounds already.

Soon, we can start integrating Groin's stuff, right?

Hope we can get this moving again!

My crazy days should be over for a while now. *knockknock*

I'll update myself with the thread today and intend to post as well.

My voice is still a little hoarse, particularly by bed time, and singing accurately is a joke. I really did beat up my vocal cords by being sick so long. I'm pretending like I sound sultry. My brother quashes my illusions by saying I sound like a chain smoker. But other than that, I'm quite well.

I bought a really fabulous chair - like this one, except older, more hobbit-looking, beat up, and with truly hideous orange and brown plaid cushions - and I painted it sage green and re-covered the cushions in plum purple.

I should have my new vehicle in my possession by the end of this week, my job is going well, my deadline for school is frighteningly soon (next week and I've only got about a third of what needs to get done finished!)...

But I got the go ahead from my boss to use my work place as a location for the middle school writing workshop I'm designing! Woot!

Sorry to let you down today...

I have been planning our trip to the US. on summer '10 the time I've had and it's clearly too late now. But I'll be posting tomorrow. For sure.

Heh.. that's for the surety... I ended up making materials on the birth of Christianity to my students and totally lost my sight for time.

But actually, are you around Nerindel? Would you like your characters to meet lord Athanar or not?

I'm not willing to write anything on that before I hear from you. So if you're not around I need to come up with other activities for lord Athanar - or just go for the craftsmen - or come up with a new character to take part in the drills...

I've been planning to post, and then losing the time. I went straight from a January term to my spring semester and haven't been allowed time to adjust lol. I'll get a post up as soon as I can.

Though, shall we wrap up the drills? I don't think they're something to linger on. After the drills might bring more opportunity than the drills themselves (I know Coen and Thornden need to actually talk, and soldiers could interact.). I don't think we have enough soldiers being played to have even one-on-one drills be too interesting?

Just thoughts.
