Let the party begin!
Dec. 31st, 2006 07:25 pmOkay, I'm a bit early, but I still have things to do, so I thought I'd make this entry as long as I can.
So, the party opener. Actually, it was
larian who's found it for me yesterday, when I took this test..
It tells me I should overcome my secret fear of Elves. *g*
Suggestions how to do it are readily accepted. Other than that, bring on your comments, your jokes, your funny stories, and let's see if we can collaps the threads again.
A HAPPY 2007 TO EVERYONE!!!
I wanted the above to be red or of sparky colours, but I don't know how to do that. *is grumpy about own stupidity*

Date: 2006-12-31 09:31 pm (UTC)Keeping your Avari clean is a good resolution, though. You know these Elves are pretty fastidious - not a hair out of order, after having killed a dozen Giant Spiders and whatnot. *g*
And a new Andrahar, oh yeah, baby, that's a hot thing! Desert warriors rock.

Date: 2006-12-31 09:33 pm (UTC)I didn't intend to return to LJ before midnight, but the TV programme is so incredibly boring I couldn't stay before the telly. Not even after having watched recorded "Queer as Folk" episodes for two hours!
Where's best to look for Dwarrowchild's fics?
(no subject)
Date: 2006-12-31 09:39 pm (UTC)I have looked a bit on TV and will return to it later but most of the programs are reruns I have seen before.
I think Axe-Bow would be a good place to start looking, also Legends Remain. I am sure there are other sites also but these I remember at the moment.

I've gone and put some in now... I couldn't think of what to put really, so it is rather a random list, but better than nothing, I suppose. It seemed to actually be a rather better use of time than reading random stargate meta essays...

Date: 2006-12-31 10:24 pm (UTC)God, I have so many unfinished projects it's not even funny! In at least eleven (!) different fandoms. But the ones most likely to be done something about are:
1) "Emissary of the Mark" - a pre-LOTR Rohan fic, featuring Elfhelm and his adventures in Rhún;
2) "The Joy Machine", the second part of my original Trek/original BSG crossover series;
3) "The Toreador Chronicles", which is a crossover between several vampire-related fandoms (Angel, Buffy, Kindred and Poltergeist - The Legacy) and the US-version of Queer As Folk.
The first two are practically written in Hungarian already, just need to be translated and - in the case of Emissary - adapted to the fandom. The third one is pretty much planned out and 2/3 of it written and posted already, so it has some meagre chance to be finished in 2007.

Date: 2006-12-31 11:59 pm (UTC)Yep, these memes are fun. And some of the resolutions would be handy, I think. Like give photo manips to charity - I'm sure a lot of folks would be happy to have hott, nekkid Elves. And paying your goldsmiths would spare you a lot of pain, especially when they are Dwarves. *g*

I can't imagine why I should ever want a different Mira or Snickelpop, so I'll just break those resolutions right away. (After all, one wouldn't want to be PERFECT, now would one, lest one become a Mary-Sue???)
However, my visit must be brief because both the Beloved and I are still home sick. We are having some homemade pizza, perhaps something "medicinal" to drink (more Elven than Dwarven this time, I think - that "Hahmmer" stuff put hair on my toes!). If we're awake at midnight, we'll go downstairs and step outside to toast our Central American neighbors, then come back and go to bed.
Wishing everyone a fine, fun and healthy New Year!

Happy New Year!

Get better, soon! If the Hahmmer helps, who cares that it puts hair on your toes - the hobbits would be ecstatic.

Date: 2007-01-01 09:59 am (UTC)Got your e-card, by the way - it was very funny. But I think the meme we were doing here is even more hilarious. You should try it - it makes one learn amazing things about oneself. *giggles*

Date: 2007-01-01 04:05 pm (UTC)Belated Entry - last editing attempt. Sigh!
Date: 2007-01-01 05:33 pm (UTC)Sorry for missing the actual event, I was out with friends. I took that meme. too, but the "new year resolutions" I've got are impossible to fulfill:
- Pay for my fps on time;
- Volunteer to spend time with rps;
- Spend less time on lotr;
- Get back in contact with some old methos;
- Put fifty legolas a month into my savings account;
- Go to viggorli every Sunday.
Now, I can't start paying for my fps (fictional person slash) on time (or according to time spent with it - what would be worse!) - because I would be broke in no time if I did; and I absolutely can't cut down on spending time with lotr; the very suggestion is most silly indeed!
I may consider to spent more time than I already do with rps (real person slash), though, if there are the right kind of stories to be found; I have neglected it a bit these last few months. And I have definitely no problems with trying to get into contact with some old Methos again! :) But seriously, if I had fifty Legolas a month, I would certainly have muchbetter uses for them than to put them into a saving account.. (big grin).
A very happy new year to you, and cheers! May 2007 be a better year than the one before!
