Cat's Cradle

[blamebrampton]

I realised why the childhood string game is called cat's cradle today.

Last night Cookie was prancing about with a ball of perle cotton in her mouth, feeling very proud of herself for finding such a treasure.

This evening, when I arrived home, there was a network of threads strung about the living room, around pieces of furniture, through the cat tunnel (in three separate passes), and out into the kitchen. In the middle of the mess were two kitties happily chewing on the threads. I don't think I want to weave anything with that thread anymore ... kitty saliva is a bit manky.

In other kitty news, I have worked out how to podcast! So far all of my test pieces end after a few minutes with "Oof! Monster! You cannot eat the headset, and get off my diaphragm!"
"Mroaw?"
"There are no cats in Sansa's fic!"
"MROAWWWW?"
"You are no help."

Pffft, everything sounds better with a British accent. For instance, when y'all say, "Fuck off and die," I feel the urge to shuck my clothes.

I had an American boyfriend who ... oh, never mind.

[eeyore9990.livejournal.com]

Was there dirty talk involved? :D

[blamebrampton.livejournal.com]

Actually, pretty much anything I said was considered dirty talk due to the accent thing. Which made me saying "Can you PLEASE do the dishes?!" less effective than it might have been. Story of my life.

[eeyore9990.livejournal.com]

Hahaha. Post-it notes! Very effective for household management.

The relationship didn't last that long ;-)

When you coming to stay? I've got a dirty old mouth on me.

And your 'For A Price' is a fic that deserves Podcast immortality.

*blush blush blush*

[calanthe-fics.livejournal.com]

Fuck.

:D

God, I'm good.

*raises hand*

Sorry, thought you were taking requests.

A Mile in His Shoes would be a good one for the archive, wouldn't it? I'd love to read that.

I'm doing Man's Dwelling Place. We could have the Sansa set!

I make myself laugh. When I was thinking about reading other people's fics the other night I went so far as to conclude I wouldn't read anything that wasn't Britpicked. I won't say 'gotten' for anything! At least Sansa gets her fics Britpicked so it wouldn't be a worry.

*shudders*

I'd say it in a bad Essex accent ;-)

[calanthe-fics.livejournal.com]

I also probably couldn't do any fics with McGonagall in because my Scottish accent would get me killed by any Scots on my flist.

[libby-drew.livejournal.com]

I'd like to see that. *plots*

[eeyore9990.livejournal.com]

*snicker*

*shucks clothes for the hell of it*

[blamebrampton.livejournal.com]

You're a good soul!

[libby-drew.livejournal.com]

Way to take one for the team!

Anybody else?

[eeyore9990.livejournal.com]

Oh, I think everyone should get nekkid and rub all over everything. Leave some love juice for blamebrampton to still be finding weeks from now! :D

This is starting to sound like student share housing all over again ...
