Elf needs nap, badly

solarbird is going to beat me to Rauros Falls. Foo. This is what I get for her biking to and from class on a regular basis right now, while I'm just walking. She's going to beat me to Mount Doom, I'll just bet! Oh well, I'll just wander off to Isengard after that handsome scruffy Ranger and that pretty blond fellow with the pointy ears. Who wants to get to Mount Doom anyway? It's all splody and stuff.

Busy work day today, in no small part because I got hit with several projects all at once, including two that were dumped on my plate at the last minute with apologies for such short notice, but could I please oh please get them done by tomorrow? Meh.

In ongoing continued PernMUSH nostalgia, I threw out email to the players of Melora and Jorenan, two persons highly important to my former NC selves, and was delighted to hear back from them both. Yay! And in related general MUSH-y news, y'all should say hi to gilroycullen, kisanthe, and tavella!

Still waiting for word from Bantam.

And I just got spam mail with a sender name listed as "Bigmouth H. Shorts". Somewhere, some place, that clearly needs to show up in a short story. HAH!

ETA 2:39pm: And oh yes, I almost forgot to mention--during my QA work today I found mention of this, for which I have three words: RACING! WIENER! DOGS! Yip yip yip yip yip yip!

Also? On another thing I had to QA today, I saw reference to an unfortunate soul who had been saddled with the name "Gynger". GYNGER. *cringe* I would like to make a public appeal to all the potential mothers of daughters on my Friends list to never, ever name your child Gynger. She'll thank you.

I like Bigmouth H. Shorts.

I was processing a list of names of real, living human beings, and I am slightly hesitant to even post this but I cannot help myself because it is such an incredibly cool name and I am going to use it for something, someday: Clothilda Beans. Clothilda Beans!

Gynger = Child Cruelty.

Oh wow, yeah, Clothilda Beans is pretty neat. ;) Sounds like she ought to be a prim and proper English spinster!

All I can think of when I see "Gynger" is the stuff I put into the Willowholt tribe guidelines for TM begging people not to misspell names by using y in place of i. *shudder*

I thought of the obvious nickname, Gyn. 'Cause I like to think about my gynecological checkups whenever I IM my best friend, Gynger. *shudder*

[annathepiper]

*snork!* Yeah, that's pretty shudder-worthy too!
