I've been told that can be an important consideration.

Good night!

Of course you were, what did you think I meant?

I've read that short swords serve Hobbits in the same way that long swords serve Men.

Yes, I am sure that proportion is the most important consideration.... Too big of a sword is just unwieldy and hard to control precisely ...

(nodding sagely) Yes, so I've heard. And there's always that dragging problem to consider.

On a side note, I have just got to get me some smiley icons. One displaying a big ol' guffaw would come in quite handy at the moment...

Good evening! I'm too tired to think about the sword debate. That was 14 hours straight working. I'm exhausted.

Sorry, about the simulacast tomorrow, it won't work for me. I am only working 7 hours, but it's the hours of 4 to 11 at night. So... and I have to be up Sunday at a decent hour to prepare for church. It may be a while until I can watch again...

I'm so tired. And driven out of my mind by having no free time. It's midnight here, I should go to bed, but I haven't done anything cool all day. So - do you think I can sleep in tomorrow? I doubt it. Oh well. Am I making any sense?

Sure you are making sense! - I worry that you are burning yourself out! I mean, If I am not mistaken, you have gone from not working, and going to school, which leaves you with all kinds of free time, to working more than 50 hours a week in the period of a couple weeks! - Good grief girl... I can understand the need for bucks, but even the young need rest - and fun! - Are you gonna have any fun this summer?

Fun? Maybe. Writing is fun. I've managed to write almost 6000 words over lunch breaks and late at night in the past week. And making up insults under my breath for lousy tippers is fun. By the way, if you hear of manticores infesting Southwest PA, it's because some of my minor curses actually worked....

That's probably for the best.

do you think I can sleep in tomorrow?

When the mind is stressed, it doesn't sleep very well. Some relaxtion and fun before bedtime might help. For myself, I always need an hour or two to decompress after a long and busy day, before heading to bed.

You know, it is strangely impressive to see all of them arrayed together like that.

Yeah, I've been posting in my livejournal. It's a good tool for getting the stress out, and my foreign friends can keep up on what I'm doing. Fewer emails to write. I'm too tired to do anything other than surf or sleep, though. Twenty minutes, then definitely bed.
