"And What's More Beautiful Than I...?"

Da': (walking through the kitchen) I've got to put on some decent shoes so I can carve the bird.
Soujin and Mum: ...
Soujin: *gleefully* That so makes no sense taken out of context!
Mum: That makes no sense in context.

Work actually went very well, although I do not quite like the new girl. However, my people do, and that's what important, really. So I shall try to like her, too.

I am making Tart Tatin! ^_______^

In other news, almost done with Manon's birthdayfic. Need beta. Miss Fish is going to check it for mechanics, but I need a Snowy or a Kali or a Nanni for characterisation. Any takers? ^___^

Self-pity is no longer going on this journal. If I am wangsting, I will wangst on Mum. Or keep it to myself, how's that for a brilliant idea? :D Thank you.

"Lazy Days in Mid-July..."

People: *are still here, no signs yet of leaving*

Soujin: *has finished story and sent it to (both) lovely beta-reader(s)*

Time: *moves slowly*

Dishes: *already washed*

Soujin: *will avoid People as long as possible, and as soon as given permission, hide on teh internets* *which is not what she is doing now. shut up*

Tart Tatin: *is success, ooooohyay :D :D :D or so those partaking of it say*

Soujin: *tiiiiiiiired*

I have nothing interesting to say. Shush.

Except that scallops are evil and should not exist, likewise mussels. Shrimp and lobster are the only acceptable shellfishes.
