So here I am in the Minas Morgul Funhouse, also known as the Abode de Meholick. Mrs. M is, you see, the Witch-Queen of Angmar (my mother is the Dark Lady Sauroneena, and ths has been going on since Sarah M and I were ten and eleven, respectively), so her hom ei snamed accordingly. Except that now we are living in their former home, so I suppose the

Hee. Well, Sarah and I met online when we were about nine and ten, I think, and our mothers sort of met online at about the same time, and we were emailing & all that jazz, and it so happened that the Meholicks' grandmother lived near Boston, and we lived near Boston, if somewhat in the other direction, so they came up and we all went to the beach together and everybody hit it off like crazy. They visited us again about a year later.

Then we sort of moved to their town. :D Dad got a position at a church here in Pennsylvania (which he has since resigned from--it's a mess of a thing; you can probably find better explanation if you go through my 'angst' tag :p), and so we ended up here, and things were Incredibly Fun and we had a LotR lit. study, and this year we couldn't stay in our house because the landlord wanted us to promise to stay through the entire winter, and we couldn't promise that, because things are really up in the air at the moment--and the Meholicks were moving out of their house into a larger one, so we are now renting their rectory from their church next door, and things are as crazy as ever. ^-^

Banui, you mean? It's pronounced 'BAN-ooee', sort of run together at the end. Like 'ruin', or something. It's not actually my 'real' name, but it stuck more than I intended, so everyone seems to use it now, and I like it. ^-^ Also, it's not in any slanderous songs in which I Am A Homewrecker, unlike my given name. :p

Thanks for the pronounciation guide. Do I get to know your real name, or is that classified information? I promise not to sell it on the internet. xD

Eee, I like the story of your family and the Meholicks'. It sounds like a wonderful coincidence: life does love us after all! I've always wished that I could meet people that I know online in person... hasn't happened yet, though. That could have something to do with the fact that no one lives in Canada...

My 'real' name is Jolene. Thanks to Dolly Parton, I stole Draco from Ginny. Er. Yes. I'm still recovering from this. (The sad part is...I like Mindy Smith's version, if only it weren't about me and my homewrecking tendencies.)

*skims fic* ... *dies* :DD

Hehe, there's a song about a Rita by the Beatles, something about a meter maid. "Lovely Rita". Don't know what's preferable: to be a meter maid or a homewrecker.

But ooh, Jolene is such a pretty name. :)
