Ptyx's Roundup

Yay! I've finished translating the Christmas Spice story. It's called... "Christmas Spice" ;-). I'll try to edit it tomorrow and then I'll send it to moshes -- if she's available (I hope she is!) Anyway, I don't want to post it before December.

I'm so tired it's not funny.

Happy Birthday, painless_j! I wish you the best. As I couldn't write you anything, I'll leave you with Robert Browning's words:

Verse-making was least of my virtues: I viewed with despair
Wealth that never yet was but might be--all that verse-making were
If the life would but lengthen to wish, let the mind be laid bare.
So I said, "To do little is bad, to do nothing is worse"--
And made verse.

Love-making,--how simple a matter! No depths to explore,
No heights in a life to ascend! No disheartening Before,
No affrighting Hereafter,--love now will be love ever more.
So I felt "To keep silence were folly:"--all language above,
I made love.

(Robert Browning)
