"In a Trice Like to the Old Vice..."

I am in love with Jane Eyre now. Full and due apologies extended.

"When I'm Not Close to the Kiss that I Cling to..."

Anna had a stroke and a heart attack while I was away.

She's still alive. I went in to see her, but she couldn't talk to me except to tell me what happened. She told me she loved me, and I said I loved her, too.

I don't want to go away ever again. Bad things always happen when I go away. I love her so much. I'm so selfish. I don't want anything to happen to her.

She wasn't even strong enough to hold my hand. She just touched my fingers very lightly for a moment.

*cries*

"Stars in the Night Blazing Their Light..."

*snatches it from erinpuff because it's shiny, and Soujin needs shiny right now*

1. Pick six songs that most people will know.
2. Select lyrics of up to but not surpassing 150 words from each one.
3. Go to http://babelfish.altavista.com/tr
4. Enter the lyrics thus:

English to German
German to French
French to Portuguese
Portuguese to English

5. Post the resultant gobbledegook and see if people can figure out what the songs are.

( And here they are, ladies and germs: )

This should be amusing, to say the least. *squints at number five*

"I'm So Unhappy..."

Boys.

...Pencroff is a far too adorable bad, bad man.

To-day have had bad luck. Hope to-morrow will be better. Am writing John Witherspoon/Neddy Rutledge. Must go to hell. Someone order me a handbasket, and make it pink.

...

With ribbons. Please.

I've read almost all of The Road to Oz. I love it so. so. much. I really don't have the energy or justification to go into desperatefans as the Shaggy Man, so don't anybody let me. I'm looking at you, lillieoz.
