"dwarves are not heroes, but calculating folk with a great idea of the value of money; some are tricky and treacherous and pretty bad lots; some are not, but are decent enough people like Thorin and Company, if you don't expect too much."

sounds about right... if yer useful to us, yuh kin live... cross us, and we'll drop yuh like fifth period math...

ROFLMBO!!! Oh dear, that would have been priceless!!

I need red meat, but what do I get? Chicken in what smells like cinamon soup. Oh well.

Argh, my bank statement came and I hadn't quite realized the financial state I'm in... not the poorhouse but I was counting on having more than this for graduate school...

I once ordered a t-bone steak that covered my entire plate...gigantic thing. My FIL sat in amazement as I polished off every bite. I didn't think it was that big a deal, but shortly before he died, he said it had made a lasting impression on him! LOL

I was running then and probably only weighed about 97lbs.

Argh, my bank statement came

I always dread the 15th of every month. I keep thinking that my bank statement will be different if I open the envelope slowly. You know...sneak up on it, like Charlie Bucket and his Golden Ticket. lol

Jess made her soon-to-be-famous stuffed cheeseburgers.

Tonight's stuffing was cheddar cheese and baby bella mushrooms. Mmmmmm...

And the restrained manner and oddly graceful movement.

And the ears, yes.

I have a friend who writes Trek novels. She specializes in Romulans, and really likes writing them. Still, she calls Romulus the "bad-hair, ba-clothes planet".
