misscamSo, another minor PPC blow-up. I'm torn between feeling obliged to somehow attempt to help fix it and my urge to just stay the hell away. But I do believe there needs to be some kind of change - perhaps in attitude, perhaps in the PPC Constitution, perhaps in venue. My first instict was that the PPC needs an ombudsman, but I don't know if that could actually work. It's a thought, anyway.
Meanwhile, I'm still beta'ing for the young author of a LotR/Buffy crossover who got fairly bad reviews from a lot of PPCers. (Yes. I am actually a fairly nice person. Don't tell anyone.) She's nice, and fairly grateful even if she thinks I use a lot of "fancy" words. Heh. That's what years of Thesaurus use do for you, I guess.
And Norway's busy with conflicts as well - today the third strike started, this time in the brewery business. No beer and no soda. Well, I guess it'll be good for our health in some ways to drink less of such things, but I fear it'll put a dampner on the good moods about. Norwegians need sugar too!
I shall survive by stocking up on icetea. Hmm-mmm. *nods* I need my sweet drinks if I am to work on the plans for "The Return of Leif" properly.
Norway's very young little princess (and second heir to the throne), Ingrid Alexandra, celebrating May 17th. Isn't she adorable? When Norway invades the US, she'll be your princess for a while as well, Americans. Learn to love her. (Hmmm, how would the US fare as a constitutional monarchy?)
Now, the the sub the Americans lost here in Norway was found washed up on a beach by a Norwegian (*cue HaHA!*), but apparently the British managed to lose one as well. Jeez. Is Norwegian waters especially alluring to subs so that they all wander off, or something?
My cat is right now sleeping in my bed, with his head on my pillow. That little sneak.
And to finish, a meme that's been going around.
I want anyone and everyone who reads this to post in here something they would LIKE to do with me SOMEDAY.
Then post this in your journal to find out what I want to do with you.
