*hugs* thanks Arwen. i hope some day to be able to say that that's true.

*soft smile*

and i still can't get beyond that awe-struck "yes!" at seeing my thoughts, my feelings, put into words.

even better to have a blue voice around when you desperately need one.

Convenience Item i am a telephone pick me up push my buttons toss me aside i am a brick wall yell at me throw things at me hit me, kick me walk away i am a wrapper empty me of all you wanted discard me i am an object of convenience

okay, so i'm not a Voice of Authority, but still..

nonono, tagging is fine, no need to create separate accounts.

*hugs* unfortunately, that would be misplaced confidence.. but i do appreciate the thought. :`(

Ayshela dances in to the Cabaret Room looking for her absolutely bestest wolfie friend. Seeing him in his usual place before the fire, she hurtles across the room and wraps him in the biggest warmest Happy Birthday hug! YAY!! Happy Birthday HopperWolf!

As far as separate personae attending the ball.. well, that could get a little complicated. If multiple personae are entering simultaneously - ie Peredhil and bodyguards - they would be introduced and described within the same post, though each would need to be introduced for those who haven't met them yet. If the personae are entering separately, each would have a separate introduction post *as* they entered. Once each persona is at the Ball, they would be present and accounted for when Alaeha opened the stage for her part of the entertainment. Does that help? or did i miss the point of the question entirely?

oh praise be, another friday has rolled around again another week survived, for the most part hurray for us! ~*HUGS*~

RUN! ~~~ Run, run, have to run, hide, where? Where? There must be someplace if i only, only, knew where was safe. What is safe? Gods, no, they'll find me here. Not here and not there either. Where? Where? Have to run, but where? And how do i get there from here?

*giggle*

:) :) i LOVE the last one.. i thought i was the only one who had to have something to connect to the names.. my teachers always hated me because i couldn't just memorize stuff and use it, it had to make *sense*. so, yeah.. i love this.

LOL and how the parents of the high school students do as well.. i'll get enough sleep when i'm dead. between now and then it doesn't look likely.

don't shoot you? well, okay... though i'd not have been inclined to anyway. what you lose in rough spots in the rhythm you more than make up in vivid imagery.

congrats Wyvern!

oh, i understood why you clarified, and clarification is rarely ever amiss.. but for whatever reassurance value it might be worth, i did understand what you meant before i got to the clarification point.

if ever there was a clear, cogent illustration of differing viewpoints.. nicely done! (and yes, it was clear *to me* at least that you meant the parking attendant) *hugs*

*nod* *hugs* that much, at least, hasn't changed since i was in high school. i'm sorry.

*giggle* yeah, elf only inn was funny

tardies - plural of tardy - being late to class

Earlier on in the year my daughter's freshman class math teacher gave a quiz on classroom procedures and expectations. We've been giggling about it ever since she brought it home, so tonight at Open House i got his permission to post it here and share the giggles. Some are more mundane questions, and some are a scream. Who *ever* said teachers didn't have a sense of humour? 1. In terms of study habits, what is one of the best ways to improve my test scores? a) Sleep with my book under my pillow. b ) Copy homework from a friend. c) Be very serious about completing and understanding daily assignments. d) Cram the night before the test. 2.

Mr. Skaggs is generally a pretty nice guy but the quickest way to earn his ire is to: a) Not wear deodorant while eating in class b ) Make hair jokes after coming to class late c) Talk at inappropriate times and not work when asked d) Give him the old "my little sister ate my calculator" excuse 6. Which of the following statements are true concerning tardies? a) They are when I am not in my seat when the bell rings b ) I am not tardy if I am in the classroom when the bell rings c) They shouldn't really matter since the only person I am hurting is myself d) Both (a) and (b ) 7. Whic of the following statements are true concerning notebooks? a) They are a great resource for doing my homework b ) They are a great place to draw funny pictures and write notes to my friends as I slowly fail my math class and get voted off the island c) They will be periodically collected and graded d) Both (a) and (c ) 8. In order to use one of my five allotted hall passes I must: a) Jump up and down as I wet my pants b ) Scream "I've got to go" so that everyone in the room knows I have a potty management problem c) At an appropriate time, raise my student planner so that I may be called on to get it signed d) Talk my friend into going to the bathroom for me since I forgot my student planner

i absolutely love the second one. and welcome, btw! Drop in to the Cabaret Room sometime, i'll buy you a drink. oh, and just so you're prepared.. *hugs* that happens a lot around here.
