the year was 1779 / I wish I was in Sherbrook now

[raven]

Last night I drank a lot of Pimms and wine, and luminometrice and triptogenetica were wonderful hosts, and when we turned up with a duck the size of Jupiter they cooked it, and it was eaten with pancakes and hoi-sin sauce, and it was a lovely lovely evening, and Shim and I stumbled drunkenly home at one in the morning singing "Barrett's Privateers". ("We were let down", he noted, "by the fact I only know half the verses and you don't know any of them at all.")

Today I have mostly been too depressed to do anything. C'est la vie. However. There is a point to this post, before I GO FOR A WALK OMG, because IT IS HEALTHY OMG. I have five Dreamwidth invite codes. If you would like one, please comment and thou shalt receive.

Oh, also, have two more lgbtfest recs:

Something Old, Something New, by such_heights, Merlin.
Arthur, Merlin and Gwen figure things out. There is politicking and hangover cures. It's sweet and kind of awesome.

That Sort of Thing, by hathy_col, Discworld.
This is FABULOUS. Vimes attempts to Explain Things to Carrot. Carrot stays resolutely unexplained. I love this a lot.

Dreamwidth invites. Speak now.

If you're willing, I'd love to have a Dreamwidth invite code. Thank you.

[loneraven.livejournal.com]

Sure. Where should I send it?

[graydown.livejournal.com]

to dovekie@gmail.com . Thank you

The parenthetical is ever so correct, as the year was 1778.

Thank you kindly for the earworm and the recs.

[loneraven.livejournal.com]

You're very welcome! Enjoy.

(Re: parenthetical, he has since objected that he has been misrepresented. He doesn't know half the verses, he knows half of all the verses. I confess that this distinction was lost on me drunk in East Oxford at one in the morning.)

I don't know what I want it for, but everyone I know seems to be fleeing LJ to DW en masse, so if there aren't enough people who actually need them, could I have one please?

[loneraven.livejournal.com]

Sure. Where should it be sent?

[mi-guida.livejournal.com]

Any of the emails really - go for tutto_a_te @ yahoo.co.uk ?

Thank you!

[nerves-patterns.livejournal.com]

If you haven't promised them all away yet, and if you don't mind giving me a code, I'd appreciate one.

Also, re: your decisions for the immediate future - good for you. It sounds like you're making smart decisions - the ones that you need to make, for your own sake. I'm thinking of you. <3

It's not a problem. Where should I send it to?

Thanks, love. I appreciate that! It's good to hear, actually, that I'm doing something smart, finally. :) :)

[nerves-patterns.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much! You can send it to jmlaffoon@yahoo.com. I really appreciate this.

Well, I think you always make good decisions, and I know you don't need anyone's approval for this or whatever - but I just wanted to say I was proud of you, for what it's worth. :)

Balsamic vinegar.

What? Thinking about kitchen items makes me happy. Maybe it will make you happy.

CAKE. I want more cake. I have already eaten most of a golden-syrup cake today. But somehow, moar cake.

Damn you (and Shim)! Now I will have to watch this fanvid (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fknjH2iBQ0w) three times before I can stop humming Barrett's Privateers.

... I'm a broken man on a Halifx pier...

Also, lgbtfest is made of win.

[loneraven.livejournal.com]

...why did you inflict that on me? Why? Just... why?

[amchau.livejournal.com]

I'm a horrible person and you should hate me forever?
