Quick little post, in which I demonstrate my remarkable ability to be eaten by lists

[mooging]

- I am still alive, contrary to all internet activity (i.e. none) suggesting otherwise.

- Have been ill for aaaages now (bleugh), am now back at school for three-day weeks, am also trying to keep up with friends-list again.

- I fear, however, if I attempt to tackle my friends-list of the last three weeks, I might drown in entries, so, er, do please link me to anything you've posted and would like me to see, or have seen and liked, or, or, idk, anything else.

- AS-levels are most enjoyable: full to the brim of Working McWorking-face, but I love all my subjects and I wouldn't change them, so that's all fine.

-  My paid account died while I was being ill, and I have no money to replenish its glorious icon status of 30-something until November, so I apologise for only have 6 icons to shove in your faces when posting/commenting. 

- I feel all Christmassy, for no explicable reason: I think it's because I've been thinking to songs that I listened to pretty much on repeat for the whole of the Christmas season last year, and, er, making a Christmas list to give to my dad (he always asks for them astoundinly early), but still. CHRISTMAS IN LESS THAN THREE MONTHS WHAT.

- OH GOD I WANT ORDER OF THE PHOENIX ON DVD SO MUCH. I'm in a real Potter mood, for what reasons idk, but I am, and I can't watch Prisoner of Azkaban again or my eyes might bleed, despite my insane and overpowering love for it (it remains my favourite of the films) and I've never really liked Goblet of Fire in either of its book-y/film-y incarnations, and, and, there's a fic I've written based on the movie-timeline rather than the book-timeline, which is bad, I know, but I have done and I want to re-write it and clean it up a bit and for this I need to see the film. Is it November 12 yet?

- I've been re-(re-re-re-re)reading shoebox_project. Everyone else should be doing so too.

- This happened to me in Latin today:

MOOG: *writing down Latin*
TEACHER: Blah blah tangential-cakes
MOOG: (thinking) La la la, I love Remus and Sirius, la la la, Marauder-era wins at everything, la la la, gay gay gay boys
TEACHER: (at very high volume) MARAUDERS!! MARAUDERS I TELL YOU...
MOOG: (still thinking) *sitting bolt upright*  !!!! HE CAN READ MY MIND OH GOOD GOD.
TEACHER: ...is the translation of that word.
MOOG: *collapses back to desk*
TEACHER: ??

Er, I haven't really said anything of any interest here, have I? Nnngh, I apologise. Must endeavor to do something useful for friends-list in the near future. Much love for you all, you lovely lovely people.

First of all, I LOVE YOOOOOOU. *cuddles*

Come, see my new university room! -> http://missfoxie.livejournal.com/98498.html & then behold Allison Janney's awesomeness in this entry -> http://missfoxie.livejournal.com/98122.html

Also, although I've only had about three lectures so far, it looks like I'm going to ♥ Classics! Wish I'd taken it last year. This weekend I will mostly be reading The Odyssey. :D

PS- I neeeeeeed OotP on dvd SO much.

[moogle62.livejournal.com]

I LOVE YOUUU TOOOO. *cuddles back*

Hurrah for Classics! The problem I have with The Odyssey is that I really, really, intensely dislike Odysseus, which is a tiiiny issue considering he's the title character. Which books of it are you doing? All of it? Select books? I is nosy. Also, have you read 'The Penelopiad' by Margaret Atwood? If not, do so at once. It's Penelope's side of the the Odyssey. V. good. Also, you must read 'Weight' by Jeanette Winterson, about Hercules.

Oooh, do you have a favourite god/goddess yet?

CLASSICS HURRAH.

PS: I knooooooow.

[missfoxie.livejournal.com]

I am already developing the opinion that Odysseus is an alpha-male dickhead. For one thing, he cheats on Penelope and then is like "omg, I had no choice". We are doing all of it. Oh darlin, of course I have read 'The Penelopiad'! I got the hardback as soon as it came out, because Margaret Atwood is my fave author ever. I loved it, totally fantastic, and I keep listening to my lectures and re-thinking it from the POV of that book. ;D

I haven't got a favourite god/goddess yet, but I will most probably end up with one.

I don't think I've said anything of any interest lately (when do I ever), but would like to say this:
-GOD HOW CAN YOU STILL BE ILL, THAT IS SO RUBBISH. Much love being sent your way, poor thing ♥♥
-did you see the Peter Serafinowicz thing? There was this Holmes/Watson bit on there and, of course, I thought of you.
-I am ill. :( WTF LOSE. Why does the world conspire against us so?
-I re-read some Shoebox last night, lol we r sad, and anyway IT WAS AWESOME. It was the last part (again) and it cheered me right up.
xxxxxxxxxxx

[moogle62.livejournal.com]

Ooooh nooooo, Lozzypants, what is wrong with youuu? What type of ill? Stop work at once, that is clearly the cause.

I didn't see the Peter Serafinowicz thing, but there was VICTORIAN SLASH? I re-think my opinion of him, yessy.

Everything you say is of interest to me, as you are my Shackalack Remus McMoony, and I heart you, and I live in your dustbin with night-vision goggles, obviously.

Are you off-school-ill? I shall text you right now and see if you are. *snuggles a lot*

[misplacedmarble.livejournal.com]

AHHHHHHH OMG IT'S BEEN AGES. *LEAPS AND TACKLES AND HUGS AND CRIIIIES*

LOOOOOOOVE the Latin train-of-thought thing. XD What are you doing in Latin? And what other ASs are you doing again?

SIXTH FORM IS HARD AND SCARY AHHHHHHH.

But also amaaaaaaazing. Yay!

[moogle62.livejournal.com]

HELLO I HAVE MISSED YOU. I THINK ABOUT YOU IN LAAAAATIN.

SIXTH FORM TERRIFIES ME EVERY SINGLE DAY BUT IT IS ALSO AWESOME. How did we cope without free lessons, I would like to know.

In Latin we are doing Tacitus' 'Annals', Chapters 16-49. You're doing Latin, right? Are you doing the same? We're also using Dinner With Trimalchio as practice for unseen texts. Are you? ALSO ALSO IN CLASSICS WE ARE NOT DOING SODDING DIDO UNTIL NEXT YEAR AND EVEN THEN WE MIGHT NOT DO BOOK 4 AGAIN SO I MIGHT BE FREEEEEEEEEE FROM HER, EEEEEEOMG.

Other ASs are French, Classics and English Language. Did you stick with History in the end? What are your others? I have a brain like a sieve.

[misplacedmarble.livejournal.com]

How did we cope without free lessons, I would like to know.

I KNOW RIGHT I KNOW. XD

I'm doing Latin, German, English Literature, and I switched History for RS.

BUTTTTTTTT *CRIES AGAIN* in Latin I'm doing Ovid's Amores Book 1 and Cicero's Pro Roscio Amerino.

[moogle62.livejournal.com]

MAYBE THOUGH I WILL DO THOSE THINGS TOO, BUT, LIKE, WE'RE DOING THEM IN A DIFFERENT ORDER TO EACH OTHER?

I...I...could not even contemplate doing RS. It might have killed me. I spent the last year sitting in that room devising ways to kill the teacher and run without anyone noticing (I never managed it, in case you wondered).

How many frees do you have a week? Do you have a day without a free?

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

[misplacedmarble.livejournal.com]

Wellllllll those are the only things we're doing this year, plus the language work. :(

I have 3 free doubles a week, and 2 free doubles which are technically ISPs but I never do anything in them, and 2 doubles which are Latin and German ISPs but we always get work for them. So I suppose I have no frees on Monday and Thursday. But I ONLY HAVE ONE LESSON ON WEDNESDAYS HOW COOL IS THAT??? What about you?

[misplacedmarble.livejournal.com]

DO YOU HAVE MSN?

[moogle62.livejournal.com]

YES YES I DOOOO, BUT NOW I MUST TO BED BEFORE I DIE (the combined forces of a cold and M.E. are driving me slowly insane).

BUT DO PLEASE ADD ME SO WE CAN DO TALKINGS SOME OTHER DAYS.

(I am choccygirlmeg@hotmail.com - but I think you knewed that.)

[misplacedmarble.livejournal.com]

!!! I have added you. Ages ago.

But as far as I know you've never been online...That's why I asked cause I thought maybe you didn't have msn or used a different one or something.

!!!

I'm confused. XD
