Party time again!

Hi folks! *waves*

Time is flying by, isn't it? It's that time of a year again - I'm getting older. In this case, I'm turning 55 on October 9, which used to be an important thing, back under the old regime. Women could retire at the age of 55 back then. So I've decided to ignore all that fantastic headway we've supposedly made towards democracy in the last two decades and enter my virtual retirement, blithley overlooking the fact that I'll have to work another 7 or 8 or only God knows how many years.

So, let's party! Last years virtual birthday party yielded 742 comments on 6 pages, which won't be easy to top, but we're good, aren't we? WE CAN DO IT! So, let's give it a try! In the recent years, it has always been great fun, so let's have fun again!

You're all cordially invited to help yourself to a slice of virtual Dobos Cake recipe - it's my absolute favourite, although I never managed to get it as good as my Garnny used to.

Cheers!

Note: The party will be closed on October 9, at midnight, sharp. Join us and have fun!

Means there's someone to help look after Merlin. :) Someone who realizes they're all screwed if they lose their mage. Maybe they can think of another source of tension if they put their mind to it.

Unless he's too busy moaning about Gwen luvin' Artie... why all men seem to fall for the dumb little tramp is beyond me. Aside from the Mary Sue effect, that is.

No kidding. I do think it's just Mary Suism. Yeah, it's nice for guys to like a simple girl instead of a beautiful bitch, but it is a bit over the top.

I have no problem with the idea itself - just with the realization. That sucked, big time.

Apparently, in this newest episode, all the women fawn over Lancelot. I haven't seen it, but he's fawn-worthy at least. I guess that's the thing. I don't really think Guinevere is worth it.

Me neither - and not only in the series. She isn't a likeable charcter in the legends, either. I guess there's a reason why people say that love is blind. ;)
