Merry Christmas, bitches! And a Happy Saturday or Holiday of your choice to those who don't celebrate.

krillia gave me Star Wars for Christmas! XD Well, sort of. She got me this really awesome Sounds of Star Wars book that I'd been lusting over while she was here, and Star Wars Lego set! With a Wampa! And now I'll have two Lego snowspeeders, so I just ( Read more... )

Thank Borders financial woes for the book. It made it possible to buy it fo you. :)

Seriously thought about making you a puzzle of the wampug for the clue on the other. The one I refused to tell you about in the same genre but too expensive was the Lego Death Star. when I somehow get rich from working for public service and NGOS I will surprise you with it. For now, Lego Wampa!

Glad that you had a good christmas and that Janel is fully integrated.

I have some doctos and a tiny keychain, both of which were and re awesome. I will open the other when I get back to the farm tomorrow. Thank you!

I feel bad for Borders, but am going to thank you anyway, so there, ha. ;P

Aww. Understandable, though. I haven't seen that one, but the Star Destroyer is like over $100, so I can't even imagine how much the Death Star must be. If I'm ever rich, you can bet I'm buying all the Star Wars legos ever made.

It made me really happy, seeing her talking so easily with all of them. It's kind of silly, but it was nice. Not just the ones she's met plenty of times, but the ones she had only met on Thanksgiving, too.

\o/ Glad you like them! Were the clues good? Janel almost didn't get your clue on hers, so I made her think about it first, and then she was all EEEEEEEEE! XD

Death Star was epic and comes with 24 figures including a Lego mouse droid. Alas, loans. :(

Well, I think everyone should talk easily with her. She's all smart and stuff. But I can understand why you would be made happy seeing that, and I am happy you're happy.

They were very good clues indeed. You learn well, Grasshopper! Glad she liked it, even if it is a buggy beast. ^_^ And that you liked yours. yaaaaaypresents!!!

Lego mouse droid. *_* Alas, moving. Or I'd buy it myself right now.

I know. *squiggles* She is, but it still does. Just like you two getting along made me happy. I had no reason to think you wouldn't, but yaaaaaaaaay you did~

Hee~ Glad I did good. ^_^ The Dante keychain was the worst. XD Cause neither of us really knew the series well enough to figure out a proper clue. Janel's playing her present right now, in fact. I was messing around with the book yesterday and it's way awesome (and Ben Burtt is super cool). The Legos will need to wait till the proper time. It's almost a religious experience, putting together a new set of Legos.

You can get just the mouse droid for, like, $2 instead of $450. But he would likely get lost in the moving.

I've known both of you longer. Be right strange if I hadn't got along. But, hey, fortuitous anyway. :)

I kept testing random sound files in the book every few weeks because I was afraid it might stop working, and sending you a broken one would be a tragedy greater than any Shakespearian play.

That's when you slap something tangentially related on the clue, if you know nothing at all or can't think of anything good. I bought my sister the Tina Fey autobiography and gave her a random clue about how I didn't know that our goats Argentina (who we called Tina) and Titania had written a joint autobiography. Granted, that took some guidance and a long time to guess. It was not a GOOD clue, but that's what you do. When my granny gives me anime I get clues about that "horrible stuff that you like" and when I asked for Blackest Night I got a clue about a flashlight. So....yup. Clues are highly fluid things.

Perhaps after the move. Hm, yes...

Well, you knew her, but you weren't good friends like you are now. So there was a little bit of doubt!

No worries. XD It works perfectly. I need to sit down and read it, but I have this last fic to finish first. It goes really in-depth on all kinds of things, like Ben Burtt spending days recording random sounds that never got used, and the Star Destroyer noise being the sound of a faulty air conditioner. XD

I was especially proud of the 'time' clue, myself. But yeah, we saw those and immediately thought of you. Janel's got a Fenris and Alistair to match your Anders, and I've got this really awesome Gambit as the King of Hearts (like, an actual playing card) from the same artist. He was awesome. I'd have bought most of his prints, even the ones I didn't recognize.

Hey, don't parade the semantics of the situation in front of me. You do that and I don't get to lie and pretend I'm responsible for you two anymore (not that I am but...it's a fun dream?)

Yay for working. Metal desks, air conditioners, scratched records. The world must be odd when you're looking at it like that. Weird enough that I hear it in stresses and phonological systems, hearing it as space ships and aliens must be even cooler.

There were very nice clues, and very fun art both.

*giggles* Well, you sort of are, honestly. I'm shy enough that I may not have answered her rp want-ad had she not had you on her lj flist.

Speaking of phonological systems (...sort of) you're moving down next week, right? You'll have to shoot me a text or something when you're getting settled in so I can be the first person to call you in your new, albeit temporary, digs. *nods*

^_^ My illogical pride is back in place!

I move in on the 1st, yup. I'll do my best to let you know. ;)
