@sam-kowal Those are all very intriguing…and I just happen to be ending my current WIP, so I have a feeling that my next hero might be a bit different than usual…

@rochellaine Okay, I have to ask, which Jules Verne novel would that be?

@sleepwalkingmk Ohhh, the black grapes one is rather morbid, don’t you think? 🙂

The town where the “average age is deceased” is kinda weird and kinda funny.  It reminded me of an exchange I heard once:  Ireland is famous for its tenor singers, but once a guy asked an Irish tenor why we always hear of Irish tenors, but never Irish baritones?  Th…[Read more]

@sam-kowal Yes, and I understand that some people want books like that which end badly for the MC, just don’t expect me to read them! 😀  Or at least – warn me first that it’s not going to end well.  For example: when I read Romeo and Juliet, it wasn’t so bad because I was expecting them to die, but I read a Jules Verne novel where the hero and h…[Read more]

@kaya-young Hooray!  She finally realized it was a nightmare…but it still didn’t work. 🙁

😀  Nice job.  You might want to tag someone other than @dragon-snapper since she was already tagged by (I think) Seekjustice.  She’s doing a part of Story #1.

@sam-kowal *smiles at Stan* Thanks.  That was a little helpful?

😀 😀 😀

@dekreel If you want to know why I never make Stan disappear, it’s because dragons are real.  Also because Stan is always nice and never does anything worthy of disappearing.

@sam-kowal I agree with everything you said…except the last sentence. 😀

Did you read my “rant” in response to the one @supermonkey42 wrote?  I like to look up to the heroes in the book I read, so a hero who messed up is realistic, and I will appreciate that, but in the end I want him to solve the problems and be a true hero. 🙂

Oh, and here’s your Compendium link:

@dekreel

@dekreel They do seem to be getting even better somehow. 🙂

…

Wow. If I ever somehow develop an allergy to cow milk, I will refer to this thread for information. 😀

@seekjustice Right.  Whatever your own accent is, it’s not an accent.  I love the song “Why Can’t the English” from My Fair Lady for that reason.  The singer complains that no one speaks English correctly, and that “In America, they haven’t spoken it for years!” 😀

I have one CD of Scottish music which I like a lot, but mostly I just have the sh…[Read more]

@seekjustice  Yeah, me neither really.  I’d like to sing on stage a few times, but mostly I’m planning to be a mother. 🙂

No accent at all…except an Australian one, of course! 😀

I like Scottish songs such as Land o’ the Leal, Jock o’ Hazeldean, Carls o’ Dysart, and Loch Lomond.

Irish American songs: Danny Boy, (That one’s AMAZING,) T…[Read more]

@seekjustice Hahaha! 😀

Yes, it was definitely a lot of fun.  I hope to do it again sometime.  🙂  I actually sing much more often than I dance, though.

Do you ever sing Scottish songs?  Or songs with other accents?  I love singing both Scottish and Irish songs, though that includes Irish-American songs which are technically not Irish, but stil…[Read more]

@seekjustice I don’t really use other languages much, but I do randomly insert lines of songs into conversations all the time.

The only ballet I’ve been in was The Nutcracker, which we used to do every Christmas season as a family.  We’d convert a room into a stage with curtains along the walls and seats along one side (just enough for five to t…[Read more]

@catwing Actually, you know what?  It’s past midnight now, so it’s technically morning.

Guten Morgan!

*sings* Good morning, good morning!  We’ve talked the whole night through/Good morning, good morning to you!

@catwing Gute Nacht.

Why did I just say that in German?

I have no idea. 😀 😀

@seekjustice I like to think my acting is pretty good, but then, how would I know?  I haven’t been in a real play since I was four years old!  I act in front of the mirror all the time, while singing. 😀

Sword dancing is really cool!  I think I like Russian dancing best, of all the types of folk dancing, but Scottish might be after that.

Have yo…[Read more]

@dekreel Goodbye, see you tomorrow!  *looks around* Is there an echo in here? 😀

@seekjustice *looks up Goodman Theatre version* Oh, wow!  It is amazing.  It’s been a while since I looked up Brigadoon, so I’ve also been listening to the soundtrack ever since recommending it to you.  Robert Goulet did a tv version in the sixties.  🙂  I found that a while ago and have it on my to-watch list but haven’t seen the full thing yet.…[Read more]

@skredder Okay, that makes sense. 🙂  Thanks for the info!  I hadn’t heard about the different kinds of cows, but my mom’s always wondered if we’d be less allergic to non-processed milk.  We’ve never been able to try it out, though, since our schedule isn’t regular enough for us to own any milking animals. 🙁

@seekjustice If you are in…[Read more]

@dekreel awesome as usual, girly 😉 <3

I agree with the lameness of soy ice cream….

@rochellaine  @seekjustice  Well, at this point, I have distracted myself reading blogs and The Aetherlight forums. And I’ve hit a brick wall on the KPA, so I think I’ll take a break for tonight.

See you later! Nice talking/arguing/bickering/whatever we were doing…! 😀
