"Poor, Poor, Pitiful Me..."

[psalm_onethirtyone]

My apologies to everyone on AIM. My keyboard seems to have died. I am typing this with copy-paste (pasting each letter separately). My b, space, and n keys are dead. Waen spilt water on it. Gah.

Especial apologies to mhari, who got the worst of it because I hadn't yet grasped what was happening. I hope she is feeling loads better and I am awfully sorry.

Must fix keyboard. Alas. Good-night.

>_<

But. Wibbly sorries to flameofdeath, too! Hopefully this will get cleared up by to-morrow and we can write our fic! And thank you, gileonnen, for understanding.

...I never realised before now how may ens I use in one sentence. For heaven's sake!

Right-o. To fixing I get.

Hi! I saw you on erinpuff's friendlist and friended you cause you like Notre Dame de Paris. Also, we have the same birthday (well, day and month, I don't know about the year).

[erinpuff]

She has me to blame for getting her into NDDP (the musical, at least). ^_^ She currently has my copy of the DVD and has been watching it like crack. ;-)

You'll like having her on your flist; she rocks.

Indeed. I'm sending it back on the tenth! Not before! And I am watching it every night, because it is totally my crack and I cannot live without it.

*blushes* Eek, thanks.

[erinpuff]

...you're not going to die once you send it back, are you? Because I would feel terribly guilty. :o

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

No, no, I shan't. I'll just start living on Grandda's gift of the soundtrack. No need to feel guilty. Of course, I might start wasting away a little because I couldn't see Garou's tragic face, and if I disappear for a while from LJ it's because I'm hiding in my room crying my heart out because I feel so empty, but, you know, don't feel bad. It's not really your fault.

[erinpuff]

Ohh... *sniffles*

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

Waugh! I have made the Erin sniffle! *strikes the pose of woeful hang-wringly Frollo*

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

And that, assuredly, is adequate basis to friend anyone, except maybe George Bush. Velcome to my insane world.

Well, it's about time. :) Everyone I know with a birthday in May has it eleven days before, to taunt me. Y. 1990.

[erinpuff]

Eleven days before, like, on *my* birthday? I only know like two people with my birthday. And also Salvador Dali, who was on crack so he doesn't count.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

Um, yes. I have known several peoples with le jour de natale de Erin, and I have always held it to be a way of torturing me, because it's still another eleven days until my birthday then omg!

Salvador Dali does so count. Nyeh.

On the plus side, I get Arthur Conan Doyle to share my birthday.

[cachecache.livejournal.com]

As long as we're talking about NDdP and birthdays, did you know that Victor Hugo died on our birthday!?

Yes...I had to find some way of connecting myself with Hugo *hangs head in shame*

Also: Do you speak French?

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

He did?! Omg. I feel so--special, somehow. And a little guilty. :)

It is perfectly understandable. *pats you*

Sadly, no. They won't let me take classes. Apparently I'm too young.

[cachecache.livejournal.com]

It's cool/interesting that you like NDdP so much even though you don't speak French. The music's great and all but one of the main reasons I love it is that the lyrics are so amazing. There's a lot lost in the English translation as you probably know.

P.S. I've been taking French for 6 years in school and I'm by no means fluent. But, I have listened to NDdP enough times to have memorized almost all the lyrics....

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

I love listening to other languages sung. I have things in Japanese and Latin and Italian and what-have-you as well as French, and they all make me very happy. Besides, I manage to pick up at least some of the words from subtitles and/or lyric translations, and then it's fun because I'll have a vague idea of what they're talking about. So, um, the point of that was to say that I have no problem listening to things I don't understand (although Latin I do...), when they're music. I really do want to learn French, though, because I'd love the be able to translate N-DdP at least partially, and to understand it better. So, yes.

*giggles* Ah! Yes, I'm working on that part.
