Between the fireplace and the huge picture window that overlooks the Skybar pool patio. Right in that corner, that would be perfect. Best of both worlds, the fireplace AND the window. Is where we ought to set up our lovely tree, is what I mean...

*thinks a bit more* Hmm, I agree. I just dont want it to go up in flames.

*Lotesse, TB and Shah move the tree to the spot, being careful not to tip it too far in any one direction, lest the ornaments fall off.*

Whew! Looks lovely!

*Claire thinks so too and begins to chomp on the lower branches, tugging to and fro*

Well, we have two dragons, the liger and claire the chocolate lab puppy.

We dont count the zoo.

So in all we only have 4 creatures. Not that many, and the four are split between me and lotesse, she owns claire and dragazzo the dragon and I own Obnavat and Leroy.

And, speaking on the behalf of our proud and slightly elitist Dragons, I think they'd be a bit ruffled to be spoken of as "animals." The dragons, are they animals? Animals... hmm. I just see Dragazzo getting all offended at being labeled an animal, I don't know why.

Um, would he prefer being called a beasty?

Cause they certainly arent human, perhaps an over glorified lizard? *gets hair frozen for that comment*

Obnavat is cool with whatever you call him, so long as it isnt coward. Hes pretty mellow about it.

Beastie is cool. Let me ask. *Leans over to Dragazzo, whispers in his ear. Gets quizzical eyebrow. *
Yeah, he says "beastie" is fine, but not animal. Or human, he says if anything he's super-human, or whatever. *Gets little irritated swat from Dragazzo's tail.*

Argh! Why is Galaxies so expensive! $144 a year! It was supposed to be $6/ month, not $15! Anything good always costs a fortune! NOW what do I do!? I'm so sick of these dang SW games I already have, and besides, I can't interact with anyone, unless I hook up to the internet, and even then it's not an RPG!

Well, I guess you could wait till the prices come down or so? But I guess you want what ever it is RIGHT now...Erm, are there any other games out there that are close to "Galaxies"? I really dont play those kinda RPGs, so I wouldnt know.

Shah noticed it again (In the happiness thread). Congratulations on 4,000 posts, Lotesse!! I'll be very interested to hear about your time on Entmoot, when you post in the JD Syndrome thread.

Haha, for a moment I was thinking of you saying that in a whiney voice of my little cousin. And yes, I am very good at noticing.

Not really. And the prices I think are only going up. Maybe for just a year I'll use it. Or just pay until I can't pay any more. My dad was going to get the first year anyway, so...

EDIT: Congratulations, Lotesse!

Thanx, TD! Though I really never understood this congratulations stuff just for being a habitual mooter. My excuse for heavy mooting is that I'm a writer who must hone my writing AND social skills, so mooting helps me on both those points. And thinking, too, mooting is good for learning how to phrase yourself, how to back up little points that you want to say - like in the argument threads.

YES, the learning process is one of the reasons I enjoy those threads so much. One reason among several .

Post in JD Syndrome . The congratulations and all is kind of (IMO) an Entmoot birthday party .
