We were just informed that there's a genuine possibility that several of our regulars were on this plane.

I'm slightly tense.

Thanks to everyone for your kind words of support. I'm going to work very hard at pretending this never happened now.

They shall not grow old
As we that are left grow old.
Age will not weary them,
Nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
We will remember them.



Over the weekend, one of our regulars died in an aeroplane accident. He was a SAS trooper.

He was barely thirty.



Today was overrated.

But you remembered my birthday all on your own, without any prodding on my part! blush

What happened?

Vote for Elichrusos; she is pretty and frequently mean.

People who are in SGAU should vote for me.

More seriously, I'd pick any of the candidates, including the three who are not me, as respectable and responsible group leaders. Vote as you think is right.

I'd be more energetic with my campaigning if the other candidates were made of suck...

Does *anywhere* mean you actually can find your camera but you aren't taking a picture? I want to see the hair.

All my pictures are pretty much outdated because they're so pale. I don't really look anything like that now.

Blow my entire paycheck on a jacket and a haircut? I never!

It's actually worse than that. I can't get my hair done untill wednesday, so I'm pre-emptively blowing my money away. Worth it, though.

As I'm finished mourning as of sunday, I need a new profile image. Feel free to make a contribution; if I like it you can say you made my face.

Actually, I think the most pissed off I've ever had waitresses was on the two occasions where one from a cafe where I'd become a regular spotted me coffeeing somewhere else. Much extravagant body language and outraged expressions ensued, but at least I didn't get the Lap Pour when I went back to them.

Glad you liked the title. I'm like you for baroque titling, at least in this case. I had about four different concepts that I wanted in there but I couldn't get a combination that wasn't ungainly. That was my best compromise down from something that I think was more like "The Final Days of the House of the Society of the Brass Clockwork Bandits".

Anyway, your own interest in turn prompted me to get the damn thing out of the trunk and properly plot out the first few chapters, so thank you for that smile This is good, we should keep it up. I'd like to friend you for that purpose, if you don't object.

A friend of mine has a parent with a medical condition. Said parent was told he would have to choose between two medications, each with side effects. One would make him sensitive to sunlight, give him a severe risk of stroke, and fuck with his liver.

The other would give him a potentially deadly reaction to the mold which goes into the various blue cheeses.

How bad can a stroke really be? he asked himself...

I fell in to a burning ring of fire.

I had an accident at work and spilled scalding hot soup all over my hands. I'm in a lot of pain right now.

Typing is difficult. This entire week has been difficult.

Hand made valentines are now out of the question, which really irritates me. Expect beautiful store bought cards, with my appologies.

Communication to resume...

Argh. Hope your hands are a little less sore now. blackeyed

If you had god-like powers, that wouldn't have happened. I know because I've seen Bruce Almighty with Jim Carrey.
