Space for Whatchamacallits

Haha xD I totally forgot to reply to your PM, but hooray, thank you for doing this!

It is past 3am. I've finally finished my work. I'm so bloody tired. But now you have amused me.

Now, I am going to lie down in the middle of the room and probably sleep for two days straight. Good night, all.

 

[DesEsseintes]

Mr Fegg, that was superb. Had me totally fooled - nice work. And you can now stop denigrating your own writing, too - I've rarely read a better constructed mini-story.

And Ms. Starry-Eyed, I'm both impressed and disappointed by your diligence. I was looking forward to getting stuck into coursework. What is/are the subject(s)?

I am tired, I am weary
I could sleep for a thousand years
A thousand dreams that would awake me

wakes up slowly, eyes a little bleary and hair askew, but with rosy cheeks and confidence in her expression, and also a big, cheerful, good morning smile

Good morning world. Wasn't last night just beautiful? Boyfriend and I had a lovely evening. We'd had a date night scheduled but decided to forgo it, and spent hours just talking instead. I'm a very lucky girl to have a man that I love so much. And he loves me too. I just goes to show you, it doesn't matter how insecure a girl is, there's someone out there for everyone. I feel very happy, and very loved this morning.

And I think I shall have these for breakfast.

Good for you serpentine.

 

[prettyserpentine]

Good for you serpentine.

Good morning...

smiles at the way the morning sunlight looks on his feathers

I hope you have a great Friday.

Poached eggs are glorious - especially Benedict. Though I think I might breakfast on smoked salmon and scrambled eggs this morning: Irish salmon, of course, in tribute to Ms. Serpentine.

Delighted to hear that your long dark night of the soul was transmuted into a glorious reaffirmation of your love, simply by proper talking. Words are such things as dreams are made on, indeed, and I won't hear a word said against them.

It's interesting you should think of that song. I was thinking how "You have amused me" sounded rather like it ought to be said by a countess

Anyway I thank you for the compliment. Both of you in fact. I still wish I could make the language do what you do though DE. Still it would be a dull world if we all had the same skills.

 

[Bert_Fegg]

Really happy for you Serps' - would have added that to my last message, but have just had a bit of a bombshell from my sis.

Anyway - I'm really really happy for you. Also don't beat yourself up for being insecure - it's a hostile universe and very little in it can be trusted. Be happy for the joy you can get out of it, but security is an illusion, and insecurity is a natural consequence of living in a world full of nasty surprises.

Anyway - Wishing joy to both of you...

 

[DesEsseintes]

Sorry to hear about your bombshell, Bert. As you wisely say, one never knows what life will throw at one. I know that you'll be strong, and the meagre support we can offer here is nonetheless heartfelt.

 

[Bert_Fegg]

Well - it's not really my bombshell, just came as a shock halfway through replying to this. My sis is getting a divorce, in a nutshell - although to add a pinch of humour to that news, she still tried a bit of matchmaking while we were discussing ways to dispose of her soon-to-be ex husbands body*

Obviously that was a joke, for anyone in GCHQ who may be fapping to this board...

 

[DesEsseintes]

The NSA says hi, Bert, and can they have their ball back?

 

[Bert_Fegg]

Well - It was a poor excuse for humour, but I bet some bored analyst on the night shift has perused these boards looking for some light relief.

Anyway - None of that really matters. I was really pleased when Serpentine shared the good news - for an old man like me it still seems quite amazing that you can touch minds with people all over the world like this. I remember a paper I read about the physical limits of the mind, and since I don't want to bore anyone's tits off I'll just leave it at that....

 

[DesEsseintes]

You're not wrong, Bert. As a proud Southerner born and bred, never did I think I'd live to see the day when I could speak to a real live Lancastrian. At least not without some kind of advance translation device fashioned from the very finest pies.

 

[Bert_Fegg]

I used to have a gf from Surrey, and every time I went down to visit her and her husband I used to take them a load of black puddings - Lots of good food down there, but some surprising shortages too

 

[StarryEyed665]

Hehe, what a perfect song choice <3

The subject, dear man, is English (Lang) - right up your street! I finished the draft yesterday(/this morning...) but am presently re-editing parts and embellishing it. You are more than welcome to work your literary magic on it. Spread it all over like nutella. Whilst I eat nutella.

 

[Bert_Fegg]

Words are such things as dreams are made on, indeed, and I won't hear a word said against them.

It would be hard to do, in any case - speaking against words would be like drinking for sobriety

Mind you a society that can call a war a struggle for peace is capable of anything.

 

[StarryEyed665]

This is actually somewhat relevant to my coursework. So now I don't feel guilty about coming on here

 

[Bert_Fegg]

A surprising late bid from Starry, for the double entendre of the week award...

Gets a 4.8 from me...

Looks like tiny boobs without nipples on toast.

Found this little gem: "This is a story about a football player that dyed in a accident."

What colour?

Did you manage to get everything done to your satisfaction? The editing offer still stands if need be.

I think everything's cool . . . just waiting for the feedback, but I'll let you know. And thank you for offering! You're too kind <3

Those nipple-less breasts look delicious, PS. Glad everything's fine with the bf :3

 

[prettyserpentine]

Friday night.

Drunken meeeeee.

If the NSA is reading this, it's probably our fault. A thread with a huge terrorist attack to start it off, and the discussion of said thread, almost surely got someone's attention.
