Okay, so I am being lamesauce and not really catching up yet - sorry LJs! ILU guys, but, um. Tired. So I have a date with a caffeinated beverage, some Australian chocolate and Torchwood and/or Middleman in about half an hour instead. - but before I forget and fail like I have failed at oh-so-many things lately, here,

ok. so i was totally trying to work out what melody it might be, but i'm thinking it's random notes, right?

*wants to jump in but decides to let Claire explain*

[katrin]

I've had the same thought every time someone has asked. NOT THAT I CREEP IN CLAIRE'S COMMENTS OMG.

See comment to Jame (which I am sure you will!)

...also like I don't do the same thing in yours.

STALKING CREEPILY AROUND CLAIRE IS A VALID LIFE CHOICE.

[katrin]

THANK YOU FOR VALIDATING MY LIFE! Seriously, I am planning on moving to the opposite side of the world in order to better stalk creepily around Claire, if it wasn't an acceptable thing to do... uh. I dunno. My life would be very, very different.

[jamethiel_bane]

EEEEE! You're moving over to NZ? If you are then I WILL SEE YOU!! Because Aus and NZ are kind of next to each other and I have plans for holidays.

Or are you doing the American trip?

[katrin]

I'm moving to NZ! For a while, at least -- I'm not sure when exactly I'll make it there, because I need money (I graduate university in a MONTH, and while I'm at least not in debt, I'm sort of broke), and I need *more* money because I am planning on the con in Boston in April. Hopefully I'll make it to Claire's in May or June. I'd like to be there as close to a year as possible, and I have to be back in North America by May 2010, when I'm meant to be a bridesmaid (in VEGAS \o/).

[jamethiel_bane]

Then I will definitely see you! Get_together for the win!

[shihadchick]

...I love BOTH you guys. I pasted Izzy's original transcription (which isn't the edited version, I can't find that right now) below so Q can see if she can figure it out off that, though.

I WANT MY TATTOO NOW, CLAIRE. NOOOOOWWWW

*smishes you*

(Also, I need a tattoo icon. I may have to get JJ to take photos of my back as it goes)

[shihadchick]

Awww, honey, I hear you on that. But it's really really soon, right? *hugs you a LOT and tries to speed up time for you*

<3 <3 <3

(Ooh, neat idea, yes.)

[shihadchick]

It's actually really, really hard to tell in the photos, actually - I can just barely manage to read it on my arm, but for some reason the angle goes really acute halfway around my arm when I photograph it and throws me off looking there, but it is the first four bars of a song. I'll tell you in a minute, but if you wanted to guess, the version (thanks Izzy! <3) with the staff still on there (which we left because it would've probably gone funny and also if I do desperately want it on I can always add it in later) is pasted below:

[mrsquizzical]

so we'll just sing it for them! heeee \o/

(i was fooled cos um... it's not a real key signature?)

[shihadchick]

yes! *grins*

(yeah, Izzy was worried about that (the key generally) when she was working it out, but my feeling is it sounds right in my head and Ryan and Jon more or less okayed it (...YEAH) so I am happy to live with it. :D)

[izzybeth]

she means i wrote the key wrong. which i SHOULD HAVE LOOKED UP. dammit.
