So I made a rant thread, told Mum about it because I thought she'd be indifferent to it and was ordered to take it down. "Why don't you keep a diary?" she said. Yeah, great idea.
Why don't you pour all your fury into a book that no one else will ever look at? Why don't you tell everything you wish people cottoned on to to an inanimate object so both it and the troubles can be closed and put on a shelf for no one else to notice or care about? Give all your frustrations to the pages of a book, then shut the -censor- up and let someone else's problems be dumped onto you, because by writing all yours down you've got rid of them all: resign yourself to the role of counsellor, the solver of everyone else's problems, even though you loathe and detest being an agony aunt, even though when it comes down to it you couldn't give a shit about the small problems of others which they could solve themselves if only they thought about them for a while, even though just hearing them makes you feel all depressed yourself. Because you've written all your feellings down in a sodding diary no one else has even seen so all your problems should be solved. And if they aren't there's something wrong with you.
Gee, I didn't realise there was something wrong with me! What a revolation!

I don't know that I want to stay here any more. All my posts are me moaning. I'm in no RPs and, though Phoenix is waiting to return, at the pace the threads are going it may take weeks or months for him to be able to come back, and even when he does he shan't be around much seeing as all his old acquaintances seem to have retired. I have all the MSN addresses of my friends from here, so even if I left I could still talk to them and even RP with them though not as formally. All the fun which originated from TMB & WTRP has moved to MSN and continues there. I don't plan on suddenly leaving WTRP but I'm not enjoying myself either.

I saw the first piece of Hobbit film merchandise (potentially) in Waterstones today: The Hobbit boardgame. So tempted to get it but it was £30 and didn't look all that inspiring. Besides thinking about it my playing such a game is not a good idea. All the cards relating to the Wood-Elves might mysteriously disappear -shifty- apart from any about Legolas. We don't like Legolas particularly. ('We' being just me, not me and Phoenix. Phoenix adores him)

There's no getting away from the fact that I like this metal band... and that chances are Phoenix won't but he'll find out about them sooner rather than later so.... -cracks knuckles-
Operation Introduce-Phoenix-To-The-Band-'Elvenking's-Music-Without-Him-Ripping-A-Hole-In-The-Universe is go!!

England personified, holding Scotland back with her left hand, Wales with her right, being poked in the stomach by France and trodden on by the US, an agonised and slighty manic expression on her face.
My mind comes up with the strangest of images.

The awkward moment when you realise that the main elf-king/prince relationship in your most recent plot bunny is the same as the evil!Oropher/Thranduil / evil!Thranduil/Legolas realtionships you read in fanfics by those poor, miguised rabid fangirls. -stabs such fanfics-
-flaps- I know NaNo's a while away yet but I don't know which of my bunnies to write them -pouts-
-most recent one
-tarot-magic one
-victorian-esque crimial underworld one
-slightly-okay-very based off the Silmarillion but if put back into Arda it would sound hilarious and strange one
-trying to write in Summer but might not one
I may have to write short snippets of each in October and see which one flows best...

I've been umm'ing and arr'ing for a few months now but now I've decided
to sign up with a different account in this year's NaNo so I can go back to Elinde. I'm too used to it now that anything else for me sounds odd. So yeah... just a little self-reminder for October-time that I am resolved to change back. Yeah...
EDIT: Account made XD

It's just gone 9 on a Saturday evening and Eli is bored. A bored Eli is a potentially dangerous thing. A bored Eli will:
- make copeous amounts of tea
- tell anyone she can that she is bored
- turned the volume up far to high on her [fixed!!!] sansa and jump around the house
- walk from the study to her bedroom, sit on her bed for a while before returning to sit on her desk chair and then goign back to sit on her bed etc for no reason
- start jerking her arms and head in something that, to her, create the fines dance moves imaginable in time to the music that she has been listening to all the while
- begin imagining Elves singind and/or dancing along to the songs
- and inevitably think up ways to mess up Thranduil's life even more
During the course of writing that, she made the bedroom-study migration 4 times... and you thought I was joking about that part
EDIT: it's one week into the holidays and already she's forgotten which day it is >.<

I have one chance to bring Phoenix back to the Muses' Realm. If it doesn't work he'll never return: as far as RPing's concerned it'll be bye bye, my darling. And it's already failing.

Iiiiit's toooooooo hooooot! -melts- How you guys in hot places cope I don't know. [/i][/quote] I've been wondering how I do it, myself. I think it has to do with AC. Lots of AC, ice cream, iced tea, etc. >_> Sitting in a cold bathtub/pool most of the day helps too. >_> *hopes it cools down for you soon* |

^ I really want an ice cream now! ^^ Even though I don't cause it's nighttime and a sensible temperature (though I think I'll be leaving my duvet on the floor again tonight). Yeah my house has no AC, but I do have window keys and fan XD And it smells like rain so I guess the met was right about it being stormy tomorrow. Hopefully the temperature will crash after that (especially considering I'm going to London on Thursday and London in the heat is horrible).
So I did update Phoenix's profile in the end. Hopefully I'll be satisfied with it for a few months at least but he's such a difficult muse to summerise -sweatdrops- and he's still AWOL as far as RPs are concerned...
omg so worried that FoBN will fall through now but what kind of RP will it be if ever other post is by me? Sorry, I'll go and be bitchy elsewhere... though this is my journal... -sits on floor and thinks this through-

-has this strong inkling (groan) that if the Shire is the British Isles, Erebor, Dale, Esgaroth and Mirkwood are Scandinavia-

Cinema Bizarre's second album arrived today (all the way from Germany, ja!) and on it there's a single called I Came 2 Party which is a dance/rave song.
So next thing I know I'm imagening Thranduil at a rave, covered in glow-in-the-dark makeup and completely stoned. The scary thing is he's enjoying himself. O.o
-Er... Thranduil, dear, you're an Elvenking; Elvenkings don't go to raves! >.<
-Can I have the image of him as a power-puff girl back instead, brain? Oh and by the way, I hate you.
