"The Stars At Night Are Big and Bright..."

So many apples! If I never see another apple as long as I live, I shall be quite happy.

Of course, that was just the end of the Rambos. The Red Delicious are now ripe, and the Granny Smith any time after the Reds. It never ends, indeed it doesn't; but there, I'm just complaining.

Also I have cut my thumbs most dreadfully, because I peel toward myself instead of away from; and because I slice towards myself, too. Oh, the acute agony, the most acute agony. *laughs*

I am feeling rather absurdly silly.

We must do something about the sheep's heart in the refrigerator door, that is quite a silly thing to have there after all this time. I shall ask Mum whether we can't do something about it.

Lillie, the package came to-day. Thank you so much! It is really the most wonderful thing. I shall be so busy listening to music I don't know how I shall have time to do my schoolwork. ^_^

Kali, you must tell me what you'd like for your birthday.

And otherwise, people must excuse me for the dreadfully long time it is taking me to get anything done. Honestly, how much time do I need? I expect everyone is asking. But I am trying, rather, it's just that it's so hard to find the right idea to work from, and as for Miss Fish's present, it's just sulking at me. It's halfway finished but it has no plot, nor is it truly going anywhere, so I shall prod it exceptionally hard and really try to do something with it.

I hope I have laugh lines and smile lines on my face when I am older, I do.

You know, it's a very funny thing, but I like to have something on my wrists all the time. I wear wristwatches or bracelets, and sometimes I even tie ribbon or string around my wrists, just to have something there--but I can't bear to wear necklaces. I have some, but I really can't bear to wear them. I don't like the feel of something around my neck. I think it's rather funny.

So silly to-night, I am so silly!

Eeee! *pounces* Silly Soujins are good! We like them, oh yes we do.

*beams* Oh! I am glad, for I'm afraid Soujins are often incurably silly; often indeed.

Incurable silliness is the best sort, don't you know.

Oh, good. ^______________^

Woohoo! And you'll tell me what you think of everything, yes? *g*

I'm like the exact opposite of you when it comes to bracelets and necklaces. I hate having things on my wrists - I've gotten used to my watch, but I can't stand bracelets (and I got so many bracelets for my bat mitzvah - I wanted to kill something). And I feel naked without my necklaces.

...and what have I told you about hurting yourself?

[identity profile] rainbowjehan.livejournal.com 2005-09-07 12:27 am (UTC)(link)
I will! I assure you I will!

That's funny! I'm not sure why that is, only I know I don't like necklaces because I have a baseless fear of being strangled. Someone told me that wearing a necklace to sleep by mistake one could strangle oneself, so I was afraid to when I was small and now I just feel that way because I Always Have.

...Sorry!

Goody!

Lies, all lies! *g* Except maybe if it's a really long and tangly necklace. That could do it, maybe.

Hmph.

^______________^

I know. It doesn't make any sense, but I can't shake it.
bewareofitalics: (B/B/B - eeeeeeeeevil!)

[personal profile] bewareofitalics 2005-09-07 12:48 am (UTC)(link)
Well... making sense is overrated anyway, I guess.

[identity profile] rainbowjehan.livejournal.com 2005-09-07 01:31 am (UTC)(link)
Of course!

Silly is good.

[identity profile] rainbowjehan.livejournal.com 2005-09-07 12:42 am (UTC)(link)
^__________^ Thank you.

ros insists that one can never have enough of apples -- i, on the other hand, only insist that one can never have enough of silly. particularly soujin-silly, for that's the best kind!

[identity profile] rainbowjehan.livejournal.com 2005-09-07 03:26 am (UTC)(link)
Five and a half gallons of apples is enough of apples. *sulks and nurses bleeding thumbs*

You are far too indulgent. *bwees*

I am meaning to post the song for you, but I have gotten 'phone shy! And I think there is a line I have forgotten, so I must ask Mum, because she knows quite the whole thing.

[identity profile] little-lady-d.livejournal.com 2005-09-07 04:53 am (UTC)(link)
ros will take those, thank yo ... no. *gives him a look*

ah, but who can't use a bit of indulgence, now and then? i indulge in sweets, in books, and in soujin-silliness -- all the best things in the world, i assure you.

:D well, i shall be very happy when you do ... and i am always 'phone shy, so it's understandable. (notice, how i haven't called you yet ... *looksguilty*)

[identity profile] rainbowjehan.livejournal.com 2005-09-08 01:21 am (UTC)(link)
*laughs!* He can have them!

Oh, well, in that case...! And thank you.

^_^ All right. Probably to-morrow, Mum will be home to-morrow, and I shall be home also, so I shall see her. (*sticksto* It doesn't matter, I shan't force you or anything silly like that. Just if you want to, when you want to.)

[identity profile] little-lady-d.livejournal.com 2005-09-08 01:30 am (UTC)(link)
*sighs!* now who's the indulgent one? *watches ros chipperly pilfer your apples*

*nonetheless, indulges in glomping you silly*

^_^ squee. (oh, i do want to, though. i'm just too shy. and i've a terrible phone voice. and ... and ... elephant shrews.)

[identity profile] rainbowjehan.livejournal.com 2005-09-08 01:38 am (UTC)(link)
*beams at him*

*eeeeeeeeeeeee! indulges in that right back*

^__^ (*snuggles* Well, I've a terrible 'phone giggle. It's loud and shrill and ridiculous. So. Also, eeeeee, elephant shrews! ...You know, I've always rather liked shrews.)

*ros beams back, and gives you a particularly pretty piece from a jigsaw puzzle in return -- because that's so very useful --*

^__________^

(i'm sure it's charming. i seem to be very fond of that word lately, but it applies so well to you. :3 *giggles* and i have to ask, do you mean the women or the rodents? ... no, i am not as witty as i think i am.)

[identity profile] rainbowjehan.livejournal.com 2005-09-08 02:08 am (UTC)(link)
*scurries upstairs with it and puts it in one of the special boxes for special odd bits*

^____________________^!

(*giggles* eep, me, charming? Oh! That's--very kind of you, I'm sure. And I think I mean the rodents, there aren't any real women exactly in the Redwall books...)

[identity profile] little-lady-d.livejournal.com 2005-09-08 11:27 pm (UTC)(link)
*oh! do you have one of those, too, then? ros beams and likes you a bit more than he does all ready, but he all ready adores you so very awfully that there really wasn't much further to go, now, was there! ... oh, like that makes up for stealing her apples and tormenting her puppets.*

^____________________________; <-- an auspicious, and a dropping eye (stolen from fish)

(ah, i remember the redwall books! i always felt a bit sorry for anyone who wasn't a goodbeast, mostly because i liked ferrets, demmit ...)

[identity profile] rainbowjehan.livejournal.com 2005-09-08 11:42 pm (UTC)(link)
*I do, I have lots of them, actually, for different kinds of special things... but oh, oh, oh, blushing, melting...! um, yes, yes it does*

*giggles*

(Yessss. I don't quite like ferrets, but there was always at least one wicked furry that I didn't want killed, who invariably would die.)

[identity profile] little-lady-d.livejournal.com 2005-09-09 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
*oh, and ros would like so very much to see them all, and says it by beaming and kissing your hand like a gentleman, not like the wicked boy who traumatized horatio. kylee sighs and shakes her head.*

*points all your giggles to fish*

(oooh. off the top of my head, i remember romsca -- if it's romsca i'm remembering. wicked weasel-ish pirate woman with heart of somewhat-gold-like brass. and who died, of course!)

[identity profile] rainbowjehan.livejournal.com 2005-09-09 02:39 am (UTC)(link)
*is utterly charmed into little Soujinish bits that smell like sexy, sexy vanilla watches ros adoringly*

*giggles!*

(Yes! Romsca! Pearls of Lutra. I liked her. And I remember attaching to someone named Bugpaw because I adored the name. That was Martin the Warrior, of course...)

[identity profile] little-lady-d.livejournal.com 2005-09-09 03:20 am (UTC)(link)
*oh! ros quite likes the smell of vanilla. and he quites like miss soujin, so that's even better, isn't it? he wonders if it'd be quite improper to take a soujinish bit home, and put it in a box.*

(the vermin always had the best names. XD XD not that brian jacques didn't have some pretty classic names all around, though. i want a gullwhacker, demmit.)

[identity profile] rainbowjehan.livejournal.com 2005-09-11 11:16 pm (UTC)(link)
*ooh, I hope he would. and oh, goodness, he's too sweet--! but he can have a soujinish bit, if he'd like one. ...did you know that people used to drink vanilla? it has a terribly high alcohol content, and they'd get drunk. I think that's so odd.*

(They did! They did, and he was just... well. Yes. Our kayak is named Grath Longfletch, and I named one of our kittens Briony once.)

[identity profile] little-lady-d.livejournal.com 2005-09-12 12:17 am (UTC)(link)
*ros promises to keep his soujinish bit very safe, then, and shan't forget it, even if he forgets other things, because he's never forgotten a promise -- not that he can remember, anyway -- and he wonders about drinking vanilla. he wanted to drink anti-freeze, once, because it was such a pretty color, but was told it wasn't a very good idea.*

(... you had a kayak named grath longfletch? that wins in so many ways.)

[identity profile] rainbowjehan.livejournal.com 2005-09-27 06:42 pm (UTC)(link)
*oh, oh, oh, is the happiest soujinish bit ever--drinking vanilla probably is a bad idea; less so than drinking antifreeze, but--*

(*giggles* And still have. Yes. Am a silly silly Soujin.)

Just you, sweetheart.

With a ribbon on.

AND THERE IS NO. SUCH. THING. AS. TOO. MANY. APPLES. >:O

(Why have I no apple icon? I must go remedy this. WITH MY NEW PHOTOSHOP, WHAT?!?!? WOO.)

[identity profile] rainbowjehan.livejournal.com 2005-09-08 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
What, no Stock/Esmeralda? Dear me, I'm speechless.

I have plenty of ribbons. I'll take a photograph. ^_~

FIVE AND A HALF GALLONS OF SUMMER RAMBOS IS TOO MANY.

(Yes, you must. Eeeeeeee!)

[identity profile] julietveiled.livejournal.com 2005-09-08 05:45 am (UTC)(link)
Hmmm, well, if we're talking fics here... *wicked grin*

I'm sure I could compile a veeeery long list of possibilities. *g*

Oh, whee! ^___^

NO. IT IS NOT. Except I've never tried a summer rambo. BUT IF IT WAS FIVE AND A HALF GALLONS OF FUJIS, IT'D STILL NOT BE ENOUGH.

(Yes I must, I really must...)

[identity profile] rainbowjehan.livejournal.com 2005-09-08 10:59 pm (UTC)(link)
I believe we are. :D Presuming I can actually finish them.

Do show.

^______^! *pounce*

They're good. They're pie apples. Five and a half gallons means five pies and a crisp, or maybe turnovers. BUT YOU'RE NOT THE ONE WHO HAD TO CUT THEM UP.

(Well? Have you?!)

At school, there is a wonderful, huge apple-tree, yet when we had apple-cake on Tuesday, there were hardly any apples in it at all. It's truly boggling.

Yesterday I had Body Paint right before dinner, so I came to dinner wearing Pierrot make-up. That was fun :-) But I had to wipe off the red on my mouth (not lipstick, something in little pots and it's water soluble) because it tasted so awful.

And I'm sorry about being not-here for ages, but the internet has been most uncooperative. I think it's working properly now, though.

[identity profile] rainbowjehan.livejournal.com 2005-09-11 11:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Ooh, that's lovely! except for the not many apples part, that's not, but a huge wonderful tree? Ohyes.

*giggles* Oh, dear. Still, that does sound fun. ^_____^ ee.

It's all right! *pounces* I hope it's working now?
