@seekjustice Aw, too bad.  Well, what silly kids songs do you sing in Australia?  I’m guessing you don’t sing Yankee Doodle and Oh Susanna, 😉 but I wonder if there are any I’d know besides the Kookaburra song.

@rochellaine

Its very painful and not at all nice.

Well, yes that does make sense…

No I haven’t.

@seekjustice Ah, yes.  🙁

Haha, I had a lot of fun (and admittedly a deal of annoyance) learning to type with my right hand when I had poison ivy on my left hand.  I found I could type nearly exactly half as fast as with both hands.  Which…makes sense… 😛

Have you ever heard the silly kids song Camp Granada?

@Rochellaine

Repetitive strain injury  (aka the bane of my life)

That’s okay 🙂

The word wars will be fun! If my rsi doesn’t go away you might even win while I type lefthanded 😛

@seekjustice I’m sorry…um…what does RSI stand for?  I’m assuming it has something to do with your strained arm a little while back?

I’m not planning on trying NaNo because I failed so miserably at Camp Nano the last couple times. 😛  I’m not a very fast or consistent writer, and I know I won’t be able to get the full word count of, what, 5…[Read more]

@Rochellaine I’m here. Reading up on RSI at the moment trying to a) get rid of the RSI in my wrist and b) stop it from coming back, especially during NaNo.

Are you planning on trying NaNo this year?

@seekjustice Are you here tonight/this afternoon?

@xonos-darkgrate  HAH! Point taken. I’m a bit bored myself. I don’t know, there’s something about analytical-essay-writing that just doesn’t appeal to me. 😛

By the way, how’s Mirrors doing? Anything new on that?

@rochellaine  Haha, one of the perks of being a writer. See you later, then, I suppose. 😛

@xonos-darkgrate  *raises eyebrows*  Alllll righty then. Have fun! XD

@dekreel Sorry, I disappeared, and am about to disappear again.  But I was watching YouTube documentaries about different ways visual effects and clothing and acting styles are used in films and excusing it by saying I could use it to improve my writing.  I love the fact that nearly everything I do can be listed under “research.”

@rochellaine  HEYYYY! I’m doing all right. I’m really stressed with school, been procrastinating too much, not getting enough sleep. . . But yeah, I’m all right. 😛 How are you?

Oh wow, you have made seven hundred more posts than I have. That’s some dedication!

@dekreel Hi!  How are you?

Hey, anyone want to get distracted with me? 😎

(Just kidding, you don’t have to get distracted, exactly. . . If you can help it.)

@seekjustice I have!  I like Treasures of the Snow and Twice Freed.  Which ones are your favorites?

I don’t know if they’re meant to be parodies or just references, but each book does seem to have a themed connection to some big well-known tale.  I’ve never read the Lord of the Rings books, so I wouldn’t have recognized that one.  There were a c…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Hey, what about Patricia St John. Have you read any of her books? I imagine you have.

I did notice a lot of parallels in the Camelot book to Lord of the Rings, but I hadn’t realised that it was meant to be a parody.

Several years ago I was in a production of Alice in Wonderland and we had a dance off with the tap dancers to see who…[Read more]

@seekjustice Well, I believe they’re aimed toward younger kids.  They’re not amazing, but they’re cute.  The Seven Sleepers series is really confusing and badly organized, but makes more sense once you notice that each book is a parody of some legend or famous story, including Narnia, Atlantis, Star Trek, and others.

My favorite part of R…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Blue and yellow striped dragon sounds familiar but I can’t think what series that is.

I’ve read parts of both the Kingdom series and The Seven Sleepers but I didn’t particularly like either of them 😛

I love Riverdance. I have the CD and I really enjoyed it when my dance teacher and her niece (who was the one giving the Irish…[Read more]

@seekjustice Well, Edith Nesbit wrote mostly fantasy, right?  So, no. 😉  My little sister has a series about a blue and yellow striped dragon.  I don’t remember what it’s called, but I think it’s pretty well known.  The other fantasy series I’ve read are the Kingdom Series by Chuck Black, Seven Sleepers by Gilbert Morris, and the Terrestria Chr…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Ah, fair enough. Those sort of things don’t bother me as much so I guess I’d never noticed it.

What about Edith Nesbitt?

I like watching Irish dancing. I took semi-official classes last year and it was really, really hard. I also like listening to the music.

Though I’ve only seen modern Irish and I haven’t seen any older stuff.

@seekjustice Let me clarify what I’m sure you already know: I have no problem with women earning money.  My opinion on that is just really complicated, and I didn’t like a couple of the themes in Alcott’s books.

Just in case what I said about Alcott was confusing. 😉 I think I just made it more confusing. 😛

Oh, I was meaning to ask you, what…[Read more]
