Ah flist, you're fabulous

I know that I am very biased, but I just wanted to say that you lot are champion. That was SUCH a fun discussion in my last post, and so many interesting points were raised in support of several different stances. Why can't politics and diplomacy be conducted with that much civility and focus?

If you're still bubbling with QoM discussion you'd like to voice in different discussions, check out the thread at [livejournal.com profile] ddg_and_sundry , you can find it here. Or drop by [livejournal.com profile] gossymer 's journal and weigh in on her discussion on whether you read fic for the H/D (or other OTP) or for the fic first. Lots of cleverness!

Another slightly late happy birthday to Amy, but I wished you an early HB first! and, in today's important news,
Happy Birthday pingrid!!!

I have a little pressie that I will hand over in November, and was going to come up with a costume-porn centric drabble (NB that's porn regarding textiles, not people, I rock at the former and am rubbish at the latter, let me talk to you of twill weaves and thrown silk!), but I am still too flattened from Pilgrim Flu, so you will have to do with bright red text and my hopes that you are currently painting Oslo the same colour!

That flu is terrible and I begin to think it is spreading via interwebs, so many of my friends both here and elsewhere online have had it, myself included.

*sends you chicken soup and warm bread* Sorry to hear it is keeping you down :(

PS: i love textiles. In a game I play I am terrible at collecting textures of fabrics in particular, used for creating items in world. I also cannot go near a fabric store without coming out with large bags of fabric. to go with the huge plastic boxs of fabric I alreayd have.

The birthday greeting in the e-mail was duly noted. :) I had warm and fuzzy feelings reading it, although I think I haven't replied to that e-mail yet? The past few days have been slightly confusing for me. ^^;;

But, seriously now, why is the flu not cured yet? I'm worried. :|

Thank you, my dear! *smooches* Mmmm, yes, talk textiles to me! :D

There wasn't quite enough red paing for the whole town, but I did have a wonderful dinner with close friends, then moved on to drinks and half a burlesque show. All in all, a very good day!

I think the Pilgrim Flu must be a cosmic dig at organised religion. Hope you shake it completely really soon!

Well, you are pretty amazing yourself!

I still haven't read the fic. I'm so out of it! *whines* I'll have to come back and read all this stuff after I finish.
