I return!

[misscam]

I am back.

A little tired and a little sunburnt, but it's good. Denmark was flat and sunny and I had an excellent time. Only exception was that we ran into this horrid racist cabbie, who ended up being the only cabbie we didn't tip. Otherwise, Danes are lovely people, even if their counting is weird. Went to Tivoli of course, and I won a little prize in the archery shooting. Didn't even know I could use a bow.

So, did I miss anything while gone?

Oh, and a bit amusingly, I appear to have two CSI fics here nominated in the short fic category. Old stories, but a bit flattering still.

Finally, an amusing opinion on the CSI finale I had waiting in my inbox this morning.

Ok, first off let me say, when I saw her go to him the way she did, the mannarisms of Sara.. Tell me she didn't look like a little girl who was seeking the approval of a male figure in her life the way in which she should not have.
Then, look at Grissom's face, his expressions as he undressed her with his eyes, thinking wow how many ways can I do this one?  and tell me it was all that.. All that appropriate and all that good.
I am not going on age here, well physiacal age.. I mean out off all three - Sofia, Catherine, and Sara, ( I would have chosen Terri Miller by the way for Grissom) {and to me Sofia looks at least 5 years younger then Sara} , I would have chosen Sofia. Not cause of who she is, but with her the need (which Sara and Cat have) would be want all the way. (and her emotional maturity is 10 years Sara's senior) 
Plus with Sofia, you have the best of both worlds put into one.. (cat and Sara on both sides of the room catapult into one another, the baggage is disbursed away from the character - Result of collision, Sofia.)

Rightio then!

Oh dear. You do have amusing adventures.

How Danes count funny, then?

[oddlyfamiliar.livejournal.com]

Result of collision, Sofia

*blink*

...

*scratches head*

...ooookay then.

[falena]

Welcome back!Glad to know you had a good time.
How is Danish counting weird? Do tell.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

They do it in a sort of - well, seventy appears to be "half 140". They don't have seperate names for all the numbers, so some of them are half this and half that.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Quite.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

*points up*

Had an excellent time, yes, but still feeling a bit worn out. Didn't sleep too much.

[falena]

Interesting. A bit like the French: " four times twenty" instead of "eighty".

[lotus79.livejournal.com]

Huh, interesting. Can't be worse than the Romans though, can it?

[falena]

Lazy summer days are perfect for catching up on your sleep. :)

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Don't encourage them to try.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

But I wanna spend those doing other lazy things.

[lotus79.livejournal.com]

*Encourages Danes*

[misscam.livejournal.com]

*gags you*

[falena]

Go look up the definition of lazy. You sound far too active. Not that I'm complaining, mind you, since I hope that writing fanfic falls under the 'lazy activities' category.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

... Possibly.

I want to lie in the sun and eat strawberries while thinking of devilish things. That's lazy.

[lotus79.livejournal.com]

*tears off the gag and pokes out tongue*

[vixenmage.livejournal.com]

Yay! Welcome back, Cam! Sounds like a fun trip. ^^ Lj was a sadly less snarky and sadder place while you were gone. Have a welcome-back chocolate!

[ligaras.livejournal.com]

Oooh, Denmark and Tivoli - cool!

-Flat and sunny; you are describing my current home - which is actually remarkably similar to Denmark other than the sweltering humid heat.

Glad you had a good time and yay for the fic nods :)

[loquacis.livejournal.com]

Hmm..

No, you are keeping up your health, you see. "Lowering your blood pressure" by lying down. And you are "increasing your intake of anti-oxidants" by eating strawberries. Thinking of devilish things is "mental exercise", which is always good.

So..there you go! Not lazy at all. *grin*

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Are you trying to get the Doctor to lick it?

[misscam.livejournal.com]

I like the way you think.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

I'm sure it managed quite well, judging by various wank reports.

But I'll have the chocolate anyway.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

I'm guessing they speak less Danish, though ;)

All Norwegians have a good time in Denmark, isn't that how it goes?

[(Anonymous)]

"Det er deilig a vare norsk - i Danmark!"

Uh, and no - not to much Danish spoken around here, although one of the putt-putt places has Danish owners;)

[lotus79.livejournal.com]

Umm... yes please?

[misscam.livejournal.com]

And whatever earned you that honour?

[lotus79.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure, but you offered, after all.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

I did not. I merely asked a question.

[lotus79.livejournal.com]

I submit that you did offer, thus creating a contract that must be delivered upon. Now get the Doctor to licking me, please.

[avonassac.livejournal.com]

Welcome back :)

Nuh uh - that person is all wrong with their theory of the finale. Sara was also me, in disguise of course.

[padawanpooh.livejournal.com]

Glad you liked Denmark. Hubby and I spent a week there last year based in Copenhagen - unfortunately since we went at Easter Tivoli wasn't open :-( We were very lucky too - we'd been told *everyone* spoke English and that appeared to be true - the whole time we were there only *six* people we met couldn't speak English - I was extremely impressed, especially as an ESOL teacher I know how it is to learn another language, and this was the only time I didn't learn some of the language before I went!

[boz4pm.livejournal.com]

Welcome back! *gifts you chocolate* :D

[siraj.livejournal.com]

"So, did I miss anything while gone?"

Well, other than the Middle East more or less imploding on itself in the past week or so, not really, in my estimation.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

No. There is no contract, and you're delusional.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

You're that keen to shag Grissom?

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Oh, most Scandinavians do English fairly well. We learn it early on in school, as well as a third language (usually French or German). These days, about 95% speak it. The rest tend to be older generation who didn't learn it in school.

But I can speak Norwegian in Denmark - language is similar enough that we understand each other, so yay.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Huzzah!

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Didn't miss that. Don't think I could've even if I wanted to. Was all over the news and a frequent topic for discussion there too.

[siraj.livejournal.com]

Gods... *facepalms* it's times like these I wish I had a lutefisk big enough to thump the entire area. Bush is actually considering sending in troops, the dipwad. Meanwhile, the rest of the government here is like "No, you fool! We're spread too thin as it is! We can't afford another damn war!"

[jessickuh.livejournal.com]

My friend is Danishl. I'll ask her if the weird counting thing is familiar.

Welcome back, and yayz for being nominated for the short fics.

[windbound.livejournal.com]

I'll be in Sweden in 15 days and I was thinking of a short trip to either Oslo or Danemark. Which one should I choose?

And congratulations for the nominated fics! In which site is that?

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Weeeeell... Copenhagen is a bit more exciting than Oslo, if you're just looking for a trip by a larger city. If you want to look at more nature and such, definitely Norway.

http://csiawards.notaniota.com/, apparently. I hadn't heard of it before.
