Teacup XXXVIII - Page 10

I kind of like Wia. It's just fun to say. Only I'd spell it 'Wia. With an apostrophe.

*sigh* I need to get my rear in gear sooner and not leave the five chapters of textbook reading for the night before the test.

And if I do that, I need to stay OFF Entmoot.

the teacup cafe is into version 38? :O

a lot has happened in my absence

***Earniel*** · 11-14-2009, 08:01 PM

Oh dear, I need a big drink, something a lot stronger than tea.

I'm going to be an aunt.

BARKEEP...treble scotch for the belgian in the corner please, and i'll have a pint of guinness

this does remind me of some news i now have - i am an uncle, to 2 beautiful young girls, Caitlin-Jayne and Isabelle Violet

CJ is 2 and a half, and izzy is nearly 1

***Earniel*** · 11-14-2009, 08:53 PM

Much obliged.

And congratulations on the uncle-ship.

Over here it will be the first baby in the family since, well, me. And very unexpected at that.

***Tessar*** · 11-14-2009, 10:43 PM

Divilant---it's the new word. Learn it, use it, love it... It's a cross between diligent and vigilant. A friend of mine used it three times because she was so distracted, and apparently she never realized that she was blending two words together.

Just remember the word, my friends... Divilant.

Gwaimir Windgem · 11-14-2009, 11:16 PM

But...wait, that doesn't...oh....

**Mari** · 11-15-2009, 08:05 AM

Congrats Eärn! That's so cool!

Hi Child! Not sure what you are usually called here? Nice to meet you by the way.

So Tess... what is it supposed to mean? Can you use it in a sentence for me?

***Jonathan*** · 11-15-2009, 08:55 AM

I remember him being nicknamed LCoU or something

Tessar, divilant is a nice-sounding word, however I doubt its functionality! Is there any need for the word at all?

Another English neologism that is definitely a necessity is the word "nibling" (the kid of a sibling, i.e. nephiew/niece). As we don't know whether Eärniel will have a niece or a nephew, we can still congratulate her on her future nibling!

***Earniel*** · 11-15-2009, 10:02 AM

At the moment neither the parents nor the aunt knows yet what the... nibling will be.

But I have a sneeking suspicion I better learn how to babysit in the next seven months!

Coffeehouse · 11-15-2009, 11:32 AM

Hola Mootians =) long time

***Tessar*** · 11-15-2009, 10:22 PM

I realized from not getting enough sleep while I was at the singing competition that I really need to train myself to fall asleep at will, and to stay asleep when I want to be resting rather than wake up every few minutes and not be able to fall back asleep.

I know some of it is uncontrollable, but I thought I'd buy a book anyways. I got one called I Can Make You Sleep. The stuff in the book is pretty much what you would expect, and mostly stuff that I already knew, but it was good to have a reminder.

The awesome thing was the sleep-hypnosis CD, though. O_o I only made it through all the way once, on the second night of using it, and OMG that thing puts me to sleep super fast. It's wonderful because it's just like the relaxation stuff we did in my acting class... I've tried it before to fall asleep, but for me it doesn't work half as well unless someone is 'guiding' me through it.

I love the CD. ^_^ I'm gonna burn it onto my iPod so I can take it with me when I have to go sleep places other than at home.

*crosses everything she can*

Grey_Wolf · 11-17-2009, 12:25 AM

Have tried my hand at poetry of late - here is my first ones.

Noble Elf Lord · 11-17-2009, 10:59 AM

*crosses fingers and toes, altogether 4 crosses*

I'm learning to play the keyboard. At the moment, the only real thing I can play is (Nightwish's) Nemo's intro, but must start somewhere.

(must get my mouth open tomorrow and talk to that girl...

)

**Mari** · 11-17-2009, 02:50 PM

How do you get 9? I get 2 per hand/foot, so 8 in total. Unless I cross my thumbs and big toes together, making it 10 I suppose.
