Bjornolf - I thought you writing something for your kids to read, spill the beans.... what are you writing?
Yea, my kids can read my stuff, in about a decade! ;) I write classic fantasy... dragons, wizards, knights, quests, you know the bit. My new book is a series about a mythological creature living in the modern world. Kind of like Jim Butcher's Harry Dresden novels, except my guy isn't a wizard, and he lives in the D.C. area instead of Chicago. So, it's kind of like fantasy in today's world.

I think we need 6.4 posts per minute if we want to get 6k by midnight.
Tilly just has this passive-aggressive thing going about some of our posting habits. She's poked me with a stick once or twice too. I consider it an honor.

Man, that's as bad as those things they twirl when our guys are shooting free throws! I got a migraine just glancing at it!

I hate, hate, HATE the name. I've told my mother several times that she owes me big in the will for that little number.
Just think if you had been a judge.

Is it odd that I didn't see the pun there until AFTER I posted this?

What-ever!!! Like I haven't heard those lines before. ;) ;)

My dad used to kid me about that growing up.
As I've gotten older, I've come up with jokes about my name, a lot of jokes. My dad, after hearing a whole slew of them, said that had he known how much fun I would poke at my name he wouldn't have named me "Honor". I told him he was incredibly short sighted (well, he is 5'6) and should have known that considering the stock I was coming from, I would have created all the jokes. He really hates it when I bring stuff like that up and it bites him in the arse.

I thought it was she that knew that he loved her? Now I'm confused. I haven't seen ESB in a while. Did she tell him that right before he got frozed or something?
May the force be with you.

Or the dark side at least.

I'm not really sure how to interpret that statement. Was he your boyfriend, or just a wishful suitor? Care to elaborate? ;)

Honor, I've told you what the boys called me, right? If I haven't, just think of my last name, then make the most sophomoric sex joke you can out of it. Yep, that was my nickname from 7th grade until graduating from Duke. Shamm however thought of a new one recently. I have to give him credit because he was the first to ever call me that. Scrabble strikes again! (He made an anagram.)
The time is out of joint, O cursed spite!
