New verse:

Upon the hearth the fire is red, Beneath the roof there is a bed; But not yet weary are our feet, Still round the corner we may meet A sudden tree or standing stone That none have seen but we alone. Tree and flower and leaf and grass, Let them pass! Let them pass! Hill and water under sky, Pass them by! Pass them by!

Still round the corner there may wait A new road or a secret gate, And though we pass them by today, Tomorrow we may come this way And take the hidden paths that run Towards the Moon or to the Sun. Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe, Let them go! Let them go! Sand and stone and pool and dell, Fare you well! Fare you well!

Home is behind, the world ahead, And there are many paths to tread Through shadows to the edge of night, Until the stars are all alight. Then world behind and home ahead, We’ll wander back to home and bed. Mist and twilight, cloud and shade, Away shall fade! Away shall fade! Fire and lamp, and meat and bread, And then to bed! And then to bed!

Oh now I am going to have 'a capitol ship for an ocean trip...' in my head for the rest of the day.





How does a window blind wallop anyway?

[RosieCotton]

Mmmmm...chocolate...

I'm back down to my lowest weight, though I haven't lost anything additional. Does that mean I can cheat again?

Don't answer that...

[TalonDJ]

I am up to 40 myself in my rewatching... heh you aint' seen nut'n yet.

[JenB]

Wah... I've been a lazy girl lately and am up from where I should be. It's just been so hard lately.

[JenB]

No, she hasn't... and I think we have to yell at you again cuz you're not watching Fullmetal Alchemist and that's justthe greatest. But the dub suxs.

[TalonDJ]

I got enough of them when I thought they were a sometimes OK alternative. Now I could write a paper on what makes them bad and I can't stand watching them any longer than how long it takes for the first character to say something.

[Corin Stormhands]

Chocolate. You evil person. I'm going to have to do something... give you an earworm, maybe.

The Oompa Loompas make pretty good chocolate...

[JenB]

The day I realized the dub actors oftn can't even pronounce their character's name... well, I'm just glad my pals who intro'd me were snobs.

[TalonDJ]

Ok ok I will consider myself yelled up. But I have literal piles of stuff to watch and my FMA is somewhere burned on a DVD... I am not even sure if I have much of it and I prefer to avoid downloading more of something that has been released. So I will start watching FMA when you start watching SailorMoon live action. :D

[RosieCotton]

I hate you.

[JenB]

But... nine out of ten fans I've talked to agree, it may well be the best. Ever. Because it doesn't ever get less good.

And I don't like live-action tv. The people aren't pretty enough.

[Corin Stormhands]

Corin is a

[RosieCotton]

I can only get in an episode or two a night, so it's slow going.

But it lasts longer this way.

I'm definitely sucked in at this point...mostly (as I said) 'cause of Takuto.

[TalonDJ]

How do you turn Oompa Loompas into chocolate? Is there a trick to it?

[JenB]

What, you've got the Oompa-Loompa song, too?

I will drive it out with a few run-throughs of hymns. "Oh For a Thousand Tongues to Sing" usually works.

[RosieCotton]

Suuuuuuuure you are.

That song is evil!

[JenB]

Takuto's v. cute, isn't he? Sigh... anime doesn't have nearly enough cat-boys. Speaking of which I am really truly going to loan you my Fruits Basket dvds soon.

[Corin Stormhands]

I dunno. I don't do tricks...

[JenB]

Sigh. Time for class. See you all later... sing something cheerful...

[JenB]

but...
