*tackles Sis and snuggles up to her*
You've been away. You didn't tell me and you didn't give me a hug goodbye. *pouts*

*adds self to the Sis pile*

Heh, time to play tackle with my pitbull. He needs a bath.

Noble Elf Lord · 09-16-2008, 12:59 PM

Have fun, sane.

**Mari** · 09-16-2008, 01:22 PM

SIX HOURS!?!? Oh my goodness! Thy can't expect you to sit through that competely focused now can they?

Noble Elf Lord · 09-16-2008, 02:09 PM

I'm afraid they do. 6 questions, almost each an essay, you don't think any lesser time would suffice? I think they should give us one hour more, so as not to panic. We get to have something to eat there, I had 3 double sandwiches, 2 bananas, one chocolate plate, and juice. Though I only ate 1 d sandwich, 1 banana, lots of choco and drank about half the juice (2 dl?). AND my hand (left) just died writing. But it's cool.

If my little advertisement hasn't attracted new followers, I'll give the answer and you can post a question. Sound fair? (I've not got any C.S. Lewis on me at the moment)

Still.. crazy small world out there... good luck to my Flynn twin with her engagement!

That's just plain funny! Anyhow, welcome very much to Entmoot!

*waves a little flag around* Yay for all of us Tolkien geeks!

**Mari** · 09-16-2008, 02:58 PM

Noble, here they would have either given the exam in two goes, or they would have given you only 3 essay questions

*also waves a flag around*

Curufin · 09-17-2008, 02:34 PM

Finally, I have returned to the 21st century.

That massive windstorm caused damage like I've never seen before (dozens of trees uprooted, including one in our back yard that took out our gutter), took out power to the entire city of Madison for 52 hours (and there are still people in the country who aren't expected to have power back for weeks) and crippled our water supply.

But everything's back here now, thank God, and they've lifted the boil-water advisory and I can go take a shower soon (thank GOD).

So how has everyone been?

*wipes her forehead and takes a gulp of tea*

Whew... It's a bit of a long story lol...

Wow. Getting married is a lot of work. of course, mine isn't from another country *is considering eloping*

Curu, it sucks being directly north of where a hurricane hit, huh?

The ground got so satuated with Gustav that our neighbors tree fell. Luckily it was only our fence that took the damage.
With Ike, we had flash flooding and a tornado about 5 miles from where I live.

Which is a reason I'm considering moving to the Netherlands

Right. Because THEY have no trouble with water.

***Earniel*** · 09-17-2008, 05:26 PM

*sniggers*

Well, there's bound to be water in a country that's partially below sea-level. But then again, they take very good care of their levies and other structures. They're already budgetting what it is going to take to keep them dry if the sea-levels rise above today's levels, something I wish my policitians would take into account instead of pretending our old, desperate-in-need-of-upgrading little storm-walls are going to keep our feet dry forever.

trolls' bane · 09-25-2008, 10:33 PM

I don't know I missed three pages in just over a week...
Well, um, here I am.

*The Lyrical Monster comes on stage doing a scene from Kiss Me Kate*

sisterandcousinandaunt · 09-18-2008, 01:32 PM

Which one? Do "Brush up on your Shakespeare" please, monster.

Grey_Wolf · 09-18-2008, 02:01 PM

*The Lyrical Monster begins to sing "Brush up on your Shakespeare" at the request of Sis.*

sisterandcousinandaunt · 09-18-2008, 03:45 PM

*flying glomp on Mari* HA!!!

**Mari** · 09-18-2008, 04:30 PM

*is glomped* Whoa!

Sis! Long time no see! *nearly suffocates Sis in a big hug* Missed ya ^_^
How are you? Busy with politics etc? Or are politics busy with you

Katya, I've got class usually during that time

Can't you tape it or something? I wanna listen to you and to your music!

katya · 09-18-2008, 04:36 PM

You have class in the middle of the night? Jk. I don't know if I can record it. You should just skip class

I might go until 4 sometimes because there's no one on after me though. Would that help?

sisterandcousinandaunt · 09-18-2008, 04:45 PM

Busy with politics, and also vacation. I was here. It was gorgeous.

**Mari** · 09-18-2008, 04:39 PM

Hmmm, 4 + 7 is 11... nope, wouldn't help >_<
But wait, isn't it almost wintertime? There should be a time when the difference is 8 hours instead of 7. I might be able to make it then. *looks hopeful*
