Just quickly: my family's having their annual All! Families! All! Day! Christmas party on the 18th of December, hopefully. Any RL friend* of mine is welcome to show up IF they bring some kind of a performance- it can be musical or comedy or, hell, poetry reading. If you haven't been to one of these shindigs before, basically it's my family, in a house, inviting all their friends (this is how we get whole families showing up, which is kind of the ideal group; I'm expecting [livejournal.com profile] sixth_light's family to show up en masse, for example) to have a nice summery BBQ style thing. There will be a lot of children running around, it'll be bursting at the seams, and in the middle of the afternoon we have the concert and carol singing, where everyone does an item- me and thye sibs usually get forced into two (last year I did five, I think... o.O Drive with [livejournal.com profile] rewihendrix, Jolene with [livejournal.com profile] deinacrida, a violin thing, a quartet thing with Lucy et al and a quartet with the sibs. :P) so we'll pad it out nicely, but i8t's really nice if lo0ts of the guests bring an item of SOME sort- music, interpretative dance, poetry reading, stand-up comedy, funny faces competition- we really don't care what. :P And then we sing carols and Santa comes and gives all the kids iceblocks. It's tonnes of fun, IMHO, so, if you want to come, comment here (with your item!!! so we can put you on the timetable!) and I'll let Rewi know.

[livejournal.com profile] megaffe can consider this an engraved invitation to come after she's finished work, by the by. :P And Lucy, your offer of help? SO taking you up on it. Talk to you this evening anyway.

*While I'd love to invite some of you Internet pals, it really wouldn't be a good environment for that sort of thing, unfortunately.

Well, you don't have to do it... but it would be nice, you know? so think about it- it only has to be quick.

btw you'll need to know the title... Hopefully it'll Be Eddie And The Gerbils, but I need to make sure I can find the book it's in first, because I'll need to get it from a library.

Why, how lovely of you to say so!

I did wonder about the username. What (if anything) does it mean? Is it French?

oop, I meant to reply to the next post. I have the brain of a pidgeon which has had a lobotomy and had its skull filled with lemon yoghurt.

it means the beautiful liar- hey, don't mock, I picked it when I was Younger and More Silly and it felt like it was a really deep personal statement at the time. :P and yeah, it's French- possibly why people can't spell or say it so much. Heh.

oooh, la belle menteuse. One of my biggest problems with French is telling where one word stops and the next starts.

exactly. :D I'll admit, livejournal names in foreign languages tend not to be intuitive...
