[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:07:02 PM] <the_Bee> hi jerusha
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:07:05 PM] <jemler> hi jerusha
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:07:07 PM] <cynicalmedic> Hi Jerusha
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:07:14 PM] <Jerusha> Hi Everyone!
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:07:55 PM] <Evie> hi
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:08:09 PM] <cynicalmedic> At least all the business with the car is done - we don't have to deal with that and a storm
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:08:26 PM] <Jerusha> How is the car?
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:08:32 PM] <cynicalmedic> Totaled
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:08:50 PM] <KK> Hi, guys. I was looking for the mirc update to rune--found it.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:08:50 PM] <cynicalmedic> We picked up our new one yesterday
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:08:51 PM] <Jerusha> So you have to find a new one?
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:08:51 PM] <Evie> Ack! But are you two still achy, or all OK now?
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:09:12 PM] <cynicalmedic> We are still a little achy, but that car saved our lives.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:09:15 PM] <KK> What happened, CM?
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:09:32 PM] <the_Bee> I've gotten an email from mirc.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:09:48 PM] <KK> Did you hit a deeer?
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:09:51 PM] <cynicalmedic> We were rearended at 70 miles a hour about a week ago.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:10:09 PM] <the_Bee> Ouch!
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:10:11 PM] <KK> Rear-ended at 70? Yike! Are you OK?
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:10:28 PM] <KK> What kind of car did you drive?
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:10:43 PM] <cynicalmedic> We were sitting still, and we are okay.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:10:54 PM] <cynicalmedic> A 2005 Ford Escape
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:11:08 PM] <KK> Wow, didn't know those were so tough.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:11:17 PM] <Jerusha> Did you get another one?
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:11:22 PM] <KK> What happened to the drier?
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:11:29 PM] <KK> driver
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:11:34 PM] <cynicalmedic> We got the Mercury version
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:12:00 PM] <cynicalmedic> He got three tickets, and hitting the Escape destroyed his Nissan Titan.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:12:18 PM] <KK> And he wasn't injured?
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:12:41 PM] <cynicalmedic> No, thanks to airbag deployment
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:12:45 PM] <the_Bee> Was he sober?
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:12:47 PM] <KK> He's kucky it wasn't his life destroyed, as in, ended.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:12:55 PM] <KK> lucky
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:13:29 PM] <cynicalmedic> I think he was texting and driving or something
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:13:39 PM] <Jerusha> Not good
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:13:54 PM] <Evie> OK, new update has been posted, and an undistracted Evie is back in chat.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:14:09 PM] <the_Bee> WB, Evie
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:14:18 PM] <Evie> Wow. Texting and driving...special kind o' stupid there.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:14:31 PM] <cynicalmedic> Then he didn't have his driver's license on him, and then tried to get smart with the trooper - not a good idea
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:14:33 PM] <the_Bee> How many states have outlawed that?
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:14:57 PM] <Evie> And the trooper didn't bury him under the jail?
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:15:07 PM] <jemler> the trooper couldn't keep up?
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:15:30 PM] <cynicalmedic> Seven hundred dollars worth of tickets - and four points on his license
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:15:41 PM] <jemler> ouch!
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:15:43 PM] <KK> How smart is it to rear-end someone while texting?
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:15:49 PM] <Jerusha> Not worth a few moments of texteing
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:15:50 PM] <the_Bee> four out of how many possible?
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:15:59 PM] <KK> He got off light. Oh, his insurance will go up.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:16:07 PM] <cynicalmedic> sixteen, bee
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:16:10 PM] <jemler> usually 12
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:16:14 PM] <cynicalmedic> Bee, I mean
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:16:38 PM] <the_Bee> that's ok
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:17:13 PM] <jemler> cider needs more cinnamon
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:17:20 PM] <Evie> KK, I'm slowly collecting things for mini-Duncan's study. Did you get my questions earlier this week?
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:17:23 PM] <KK> At least you weren't seriously killed. Is your new car newer than the one that died in your defense?
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:17:45 PM] * Evie wants some mulled cider...must go heat some up when chat is over....
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:17:52 PM] <the_Bee> Is it possible to be un-seriously killed?
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:17:57 PM] <cynicalmedic> Yes - the insurance carrier gave us enough for a 2011
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:17:58 PM] <Evie> LOL, Bee
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:18:11 PM] <KK> I shoiuld think so. THeir client is an idiot.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:18:12 PM] <Jerusha> I was going to ask that, Bee
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:18:40 PM] <the_Bee> Some of the Darwin Award winners might qualify.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:18:50 PM] <cynicalmedic> All the dogs approve - we took them for a ride today.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:18:58 PM] <jemler> first man: 'Are you hurt bad?' Second man: 'I ain't hurt good!'
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:19:09 PM] <Evie> :D
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:19:10 PM] <KK> I'm glad they approve.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:19:54 PM] <KK> Having been rear-ended twice in my life, both times in the short while I lived in Sacrament, I don't recommend it.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:20:05 PM] <KK> At least you got a new car out of the deal.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:20:09 PM] <Jerusha> Sacrement?
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:20:18 PM] <KK> Sacramento.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:20:31 PM] <jemler> the only way i'm bothered by the sight of my own blood, is if there's more on the outside than on the inside!
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:20:32 PM] <Evie> Sacrament sounds like a place where Duncan would like to live. ;-)
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:20:38 PM] <Jerusha> Oh, I thought you might be staying with Duncan:)
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:20:39 PM] <KK> I was going to write Sacratomato, which is what my sister calls it. She lives there.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:21:18 PM] <Evie> "Sacratomato." :D
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:21:27 PM] <Jerusha> Kind of like Toronto. When I type it, it usually turns out Toronot
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:21:29 PM] <KK> Was there any blood, CM? Of course, you're used to that, especially if it's other people's blood.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:21:30 PM] <Evie> I picture a tomato with a halo
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:21:59 PM] <the_Bee> and pierced hands
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:22:12 PM] <Jerusha> Puts killer tomatoes to shame
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:22:20 PM] <Evie> and a hairbrush. No, wait, that was Veggie Tales and a peach.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:22:35 PM] <cynicalmedic> No blood, just bruises. That was my problem - I am usually on the other side of the window.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:22:52 PM] <KK> Whiplash is no fun.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:22:56 PM] <Jerusha> It would be hard to be looked after, in reverse
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:23:30 PM] <Evie> How are Alaric and Brion this week, KK?
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:24:23 PM] <KK> They are splendid. I polished up and printed 3--count 'em--3! chapters just this weekend. Am now barreling along on cha. 29.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:24:34 PM] <Evie> Woohoo!
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:24:34 PM] <the_Bee> Yay!
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:24:35 PM] <Jerusha> Yea!
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:24:36 PM] <cynicalmedic> Yay!
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:25:20 PM] <Jerusha> Where in the story is Chapter 29?
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:25:27 PM] * the_Bee starts her 2013 Christmas list.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:25:33 PM] <Evie> I've joined a forum for other doll customizers recently, and found another one of your readers there who was thrilled to see someone doing Mini-Deryni. I tried to coax her into coming to chat.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:25:36 PM] <jemler> after chapter 28
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:25:47 PM] * Evie smacks jemler with a mackerel so often, she's created a macro for it. *thwack!*
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:25:47 PM] <Jerusha> Jemler!
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:26:05 PM] <cynicalmedic> Contemplates the aerodynamics of blue crabs
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:26:20 PM] <Evie> No, KK is writing CM3 in a new surrealist style, and so chapter 29 comes after chapter 3.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:26:21 PM] <Jerusha> Looks for a handful of smelt
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:26:23 PM] <KK> This one involves the passing of Alaric's Aunt Claara. And he will appoint Llion and Alazais to be his stewards at Morganhall, thoiugh Llion wilol continut to spend most of his time in Rhemuth.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:26:48 PM] <Jerusha> Claara was the poet, wasn't she?
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:27:05 PM] <KK> No, that's Delphine.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:27:29 PM] <KK> Claara is the domestic one, with the granddaughter living at Morganhall.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:27:29 PM] <cynicalmedic> Claara had a daughter - right?
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:27:58 PM] <Jerusha> Ah yes, I remember. Widowed.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:28:18 PM] <KK> This chapter is already pretty much written, so I just have to polish through and slightly expand. THen we head to Bremagne, whre Brion will meet Jehana.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:28:39 PM] <Evie> Yay...sort of.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:28:56 PM] <Evie> At least he'll get Kelson out of that match. Eventually.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:29:00 PM] <Jerusha> Must be interesting to be a page to a king hunting for a wife
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:29:21 PM] <KK> This past week, though, I've been working out the nittyu-gritty of Se showing up to teach Alaric some more, incl. ward cubes. And Alaric nearly has a run-in with Wencit at the investiture of Letald Hort of Orsal.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:29:45 PM] <the_Bee> OOOH! Scary
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:29:54 PM] <KK> Fortunately, Se is there and manages to keep things from going pear-shaped.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:30:01 PM] <Evie> :)
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:30:33 PM] <cynicalmedic> Thank heaven for Se
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:30:50 PM] <Evie> Does Alaric own his own cubes at this point, or did he have to use Se's?
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:31:08 PM] <KK> Indeed. Unfortunately, his days have to be numbered, because we know that Alaric never got very thorough training.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:31:13 PM] <Jerusha> How old would Wencit be at the time?
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:31:31 PM] <KK> He's given a set that his mother gave to Se when they were children.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:31:46 PM] <Jerusha> Aww!
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:31:47 PM] <Evie> I knew it. If you're not sticking my favorite men in cassocks, you're killing 'em off. Typical. ;-)
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:31:52 PM] <KK> 18-20ish
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:32:06 PM] <jemler> isn't Duncan in a cassock?
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:32:09 PM] * jemler ducks
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:32:18 PM] <Evie> exactly, jemler
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:32:22 PM] * Evie searches her grimoire to see if there's a spell for turning jemler to a frog
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:32:31 PM] <Jerusha> Or a newt
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:32:45 PM] <cynicalmedic> or an amoeba
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:33:00 PM] <Jerusha> Then we would have two Jemlers
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:33:14 PM] <jemler> heh heh heh
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:33:17 PM] <KK> Perish the thought!
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:33:19 PM] <cynicalmedic> but amoebas can't type
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:33:25 PM] <KK> That's true.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:33:32 PM] <cynicalmedic> :D
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:33:34 PM] <KK> But they can probably live on keyboards.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:33:40 PM] <Evie> KK, my littles may be getting some medieval food for Duncan's birthday. I've worked out a trade deal with a gal on the 1:6 action figure forum I joined
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:33:41 PM] <jemler> neethr kan eye!
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:34:08 PM] <Jerusha> Where did I put that trout?
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:34:19 PM] <KK> I saw that, Evie. And I loved the bath scene you set up. Recognized the bottle on the table. :)
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:34:23 PM] * DesertRose smacks jemler with a mackerel.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:34:23 PM] <cynicalmedic> I think you need a marlin, Jerusha
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:34:32 PM] <Evie> LOL! I thought you might. :D
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:34:45 PM] <the_Bee> or a swordfish
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:35:00 PM] <Evie> it was difficult keeping Luke, or at least his tail, out of that scene
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:35:08 PM] <KK> The new table is also excellent.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:35:14 PM] <Jerusha> I must investigate after chat
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:35:45 PM] <Evie> I am trying to stain the base slightly darker as well, but it's not taking the stain quite as well, since it's not wood. I'm hoping the stain will eventually dry if I leave it a day or two.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:36:07 PM] <Evie> Otherwise, I guess I'll scrub it and then try again with paint.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:36:08 PM] <KK> It should do.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:36:14 PM] <cynicalmedic> What is the base made of?
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:36:28 PM] <Evie> It's a candlestick that I think it made of resin
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:36:59 PM] <Evie> it's not ceramic, but not obviously plastic-y either, so I'm guessing a resin
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:37:07 PM] <cynicalmedic> FolkArt Acrylics make a couple of colors that look like stain
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:37:41 PM] <cynicalmedic> if the stain doesn't stay on.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:37:44 PM] <Evie> I'll take a peek at those again next time I'm in Michael's. though I think I've spent enough fun money for this paycheck, so it might have to wait.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:38:27 PM] <Evie> Since I also got some air drying clay and gesso for working on the exterior of the mini-castle (no, I haven't forgotten that project), and some insulating foam that I plan to carve into a stone wall backdrop
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:38:44 PM] <Jerusha> Don't turn me loose in the beading aisle in Michael's unsupervised
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:38:47 PM] <jemler> anybody have any money you don't want? send it to Evie!
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:38:53 PM] <Evie> and if that works well, I want to go back for a full sheet of the stuff to do more walls, the fireplace for Duncan's study, a window seat, etc.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:38:56 PM] <cynicalmedic> Have you seen the spray paint that looks like stone?
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:39:05 PM] <Evie> LOL! yes, Jemler, I second that! :D
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:39:26 PM] <Evie> I have some, CM. Well, more like stucco, but I've seen the granite looking stuff
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:39:29 PM] <KK> I liked the prayer beads that Evie is making for the Littles. The article was intersting, too.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:39:49 PM] <Evie> I loved the research. I bought some blue beads for the gauds, but they might be a tad too big
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:40:07 PM] <Evie> but I found a bracelet today with slightly smaller, cube-shaped blue beads that might work
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:40:08 PM] <KK> YOu're apt to get some beads in my next care package.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:40:16 PM] <Evie> oooh! :D
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:40:27 PM] <Evie> Beads are always fun to play with.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:40:27 PM] <DesertRose> BRB
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:40:33 PM] <Evie> I made a few mini-necklaces last night
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:40:43 PM] <KK> How do those fasten?
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:41:21 PM] Join derynifanatic64 has joined this channel (Mibbit@78A221.E3FDFB.42EEA9.D494CA).
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:41:25 PM] <Evie> They're made of findings meant for making pierced hoop earrings. They come with a loop in one end, and after I strung the beads on, I just used needlenose pliers to bend a small hook in the other end
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:41:29 PM] <the_Bee> Hi DF
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:41:34 PM] <KK> I'd be inclined to make them big enough to go over the head--unless, of course, you ean to decapitate them every time they change outfits. ;)
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:41:37 PM] <cynicalmedic> Hi DF
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:41:38 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12hi there
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:41:46 PM] <Jerusha> Hi DF
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:41:55 PM] <Evie> I tried using a larger hoop, but it doesn't lie right on their shoulders
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:41:59 PM] <jemler> hi df
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:42:03 PM] <Jerusha> Evie, they also have little magnetic fasteners, which could work well
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:42:04 PM] <Evie> so this is more like a choker style with a clasp in back
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:42:18 PM] <KK> YOu have to use more flexible string, or thread
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:42:30 PM] <KK> Magnets would be too big, I think.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:42:35 PM] <Evie> Oh, those are on wire
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:42:47 PM] <Jerusha> Some are quite small, though they might still be a bit big
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:42:50 PM] <Evie> they're more like collar chokers than a strung necklace
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:43:12 PM] <Jerusha> Evie, could they work nicely over a veil?
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:43:13 PM] <Evie> My strung beads will fit over their heads without a clasp
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:43:39 PM] <Evie> The larger ones might, but I'm not sure. I suspect Richenda's coronet is made from something like the larger hoops
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:43:48 PM] <Evie> but with more beadwork added
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:43:53 PM] <KK> I was fascinated to read about the straight beads, designed for men. I've actually seen those, but didn't realize they were period. Makes sense, though.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:44:16 PM] <the_Bee> ?
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:44:27 PM] <Evie> I figured I'd try a straight style and the "necklace" style, and see which ones look best
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:44:34 PM] <Evie> We're talking about mini-rosaries, Bee
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:45:00 PM] <Evie> I've found an article researching medieval styles and am making the mini-Deryni some shiral rosaries in 1:6 scale
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:45:02 PM] <the_Bee> ah, ok. and Straight Rosary beads are more masculine?
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:45:30 PM] <KK> I've seen them called Penal Rosaries, sometimes done in Connemara marble with a cross at one end and what looks like a keyring at the other.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:45:36 PM] <the_Bee> as opposed to Gay rosary beads.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:45:45 PM] <Evie> Yes, apparently men didn't want to fuss with a full 50+ bead strand, but they'd loop a 20 bead straight strand into their belt or carry a "tenner" in their pouch
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:46:15 PM] <KK> Yeah, the tenner is what I've seen modernly, in Ireland.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:46:19 PM] <Evie> I was thinking of doing my straight one with a cross at one end and a medallion with the Chartres Labyrinth on the other end.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:46:47 PM] <KK> That would work. Or could do a tassel at one end and cross or medallion at the others.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:46:52 PM] <Evie> Bee, do I need to aim the catapult at you for that pun? :D
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:47:01 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12yes
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:47:19 PM] <the_Bee> *Evil Grin*
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:47:28 PM] <Jerusha> Oh dear, I just got that!
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:47:38 PM] <Evie> I wanted to incorporate the labyrinth medallion into something for Duncan, but I didn't know what. But I have a cross that matches the bronze color exactly
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:47:53 PM] <KK> That would work.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:48:56 PM] <Evie> Did you get my (VERY ROUGH) sketch of Duncan's study, and if so, is that at least roughly the right layout?
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:49:16 PM] <Evie> considering none of it is to scale, that is
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:49:54 PM] <KK> Argh, forgot all about that,a Evie. I have a sketch of the study somewhere. If I don't send it to you by Wednesday, please remind me.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:50:01 PM] <Evie> OK, will do
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:50:17 PM] <Evie> unless it takes you from writing chapters 29 and 30, in which case I'll wait. ;-)
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:50:44 PM] <KK> No, it's just a matter of digging it out of the file and scanning it for you.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:51:11 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12:D
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:51:21 PM] <Evie> Mini-Duncan wants to have a room to rest in when he's not being trotted off from shop to shop or parked on benches to pose for pictures. ;D
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:51:46 PM] <Jerusha> Alaric may want to join him ther
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:51:50 PM] <Jerusha> There
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:52:14 PM] <cynicalmedic> Woops - have to run - have a call - stay safe - have a good week.

[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:52:28 PM] <Jerusha> You too,CM
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:52:31 PM] <DesertRose> Wow, that was a quick exit.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:52:35 PM] <Evie> yeah
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:52:43 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12almost time for once upon a time
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:52:48 PM] <DesertRose> But I guess in CM's line of work, you have to hurry.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:52:49 PM] <the_Bee> must have been an important call.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:52:50 PM] <Evie> Must have been a work call
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:53:01 PM] <KK> Yep, emergency.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:53:22 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12you gotta do what you hafta do
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:53:26 PM] <DesertRose> Yup
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:53:35 PM] <Jerusha> Any worries about hurricane Sandy, KK?
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:54:59 PM] <KK> Not really. I don't think it will come this far inland. And we've got mountains between us and it.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:55:06 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12i just had rain and now florida is about to cool down
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:55:21 PM] <DesertRose> Up here in Jax, it's already fairly cool for us.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:55:24 PM] <Jerusha> That's good
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:55:30 PM] <KK> It's definitely cooling down here, and we're forecsat for rain for the next couple of days. It's 49 now.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:55:35 PM] <DesertRose> It's going to drop down to the 50s tonight, which is right chilly for us.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:55:52 PM] <the_Bee> We had rain sooner than I expected.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:55:59 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12orlando will hit 48 monday
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:56:00 PM] <Jerusha> We're going down to 0 C, and there may be flurries
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:56:08 PM] <Evie> I went jacket-shopping for DS today, and ended up not buying him one, but getting him 3 pairs of pants instead
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:56:09 PM] <DesertRose> Brr, Jerusha.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:56:21 PM] <Evie> He just didn't find one he liked well enough to justify buying it
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:56:25 PM] <KK> I put up my winter curtain in the doorway to my office this week, to keep the winter gales from racing up the garage stair and into my office.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:56:28 PM] <Evie> But he'll definitely need one soon
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:56:37 PM] <DesertRose> Yeah, I went jeans shopping myself earlier this week.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:56:53 PM] <Jerusha> Is your office above the garage, KK?
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:56:57 PM] <DesertRose> Found a very cute pair in a thrift store for $5.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:57:16 PM] <KK> Well, gotta dash. It's about time for Once Upon a TIme. And yes, it's above the garage, and opens right off the kitchen.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:57:28 PM] <Evie> See you later!
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:57:30 PM] <jemler> nite kk
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:57:31 PM] <DesertRose> Okay, see you later, KK. Thanks for stopping in! :)
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:57:36 PM] <KK> Nighters, all.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:57:37 PM] <the_Bee> food and transportation within easy reach
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:57:39 PM] <DesertRose> Night!
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:57:41 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12good night
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:57:44 PM] <Jerusha> Night KK, good writing and a good week
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:57:52 PM] <the_Bee> bye KK, glad you came
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:57:52 PM] * KK steps onto her Portal, waves goodnight, and disappears in a shower of green sparkles.
[Sunday, October 28, 2012] [07:58:07 PM] <KK> Ta-ta.

"If having a soul means being able to feel love, loyalty, and gratitude, then animals are better off than a lot of humans."

James Herriot (James Alfred "Alfie" Wight), when a human client asked him if animals have souls.  (I don't remember in which book the story originally appeared.)
