Life, and stuff

[labellementeuse]

The reason, should anyone be curious, for my prolonged absence from LJ and MSN is that the internet connection at home is so unutterably crap that I can barely check my emails. Please assume that I am not reading your journal and comment somewhere to tell me if you do anything fabulous? Thanks. :) This is also the reason I haven't really been hitting the LJ comments as hard as I should so.. :( sorry gang, I still love you and it'll all be over in... two months?

In the weekend I went to shoeless_girl's going-away party and met her and manic_subbie, as well as amarynth and dryadwoman (whom- who?- I have just friended, so, um, hi guys! :D) and they were all absolutely LOVELY and beautiful and friendly and I had a great time. XD Although no-one could say my user name, which may be a sign that should I ever change it, I should definitely go for something in English. Um. Anyway, I drank a bit and sang under my breath ;) and chatted with tonnes of people, and come to the conclusion that Sarah's friends are awesome, as are she and Hayley, who I was pretty nervous about meeting :P.

Also in LJ-related news, I got Christmas cards from deutscheami and lady_larla! Which makes me start to wonder: have mine arrived yet? (I, uh, haven't sent the NZ ones yet. Doing it tomorrow. :P)

Luckily my life is very very drab. Um.... Won Nanowrimo, haven't edited much.

Will have to find full time work because I can't do my teaching diploma until midyear intake...

And thats about it...


whom- who?- I have just friended

I'd go with Whom there myself.

I say Label men toose in my head though I'm sure that's wrong.

La Belle Menteuse? The Beautiful Mind?

Congrats on winning NaNo! :D

Totally, actually ;) La, as in do re mi; Belle, kind of like bell but nsort of... frenchy on the end; men to rhyme with bonbon; and teuse rhymes, sort of, with hers. Sort of. Teuse is the one everyone seems to be having trouble with, you're not the only one saying "toose" :P

Oh, and oops: la belle menteuse meaning beautiful liar (the "the" is there, but it's not always used in french. mens is mind or brain, I think, but menteur/euse (masc/fem) is liar.
