h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I'm starting to worry that I won't get all the housework done before Marv gets here. Marv, just don't look at most of the rooms, okay? Okay.

Going back in to the kid's room soon. I'm trying to get the gumption for it, but can't really. I need more caffeine, I think.

MR, me=guy. I am immune to wrecked houses. Looking forward to being there!

I can't sleep tonight. I finished "Men At Arms" and now have nothing to read. I spent the last half hour posting on my BF2 clan web forum, but I have exhausted the possibilities of ragging on my clanmates. I could start a new book but what I really want to do is to find "Feet of Clay" but it is in a box somewhere. Till my roomies buy their house (looking like Oct or Nov now) I can't really unpack all the way.

Hey MR, what's the weather likely to be like this weekend? I am going to do all my laundry tomorrow when I get home from work and pack for the trip.

All, I will be bringing at least one camera with me on the trip, I will coerce MR and COurtesy to be photographed! Film at 11!

Oh, and MR, what's your thoughts on In-n-Out Burger for lunch on friday?

I wish this one commissioner would write me one single email with her corrections to the minutes. Instead she sprays me with emails as she encounters things she wants altered or amended, and I never find all of them. I missed two in the minutes I sent out tonight, so what does she do but send me 5 emails with different comments. The only way to work with her would be to sit at attention the whole time. Unfortunately she is not all that computer-literate, and I suppose her inbox doesn't contain nearly as much as mine does, so she doesn't appreciate how easily her snowdrift of singletons gets buried under my eBay confirmations, newsletters and other business transactions.

I think it's hilarious how those amateur Poser-artists up on renderosity and 3dcommune create women with size FF breasts. A woman like that would actually be crippled with back pain, as well as chafed to the point of madness by all that chainmail.

Not to mention cutting off her left tit the first time she went to swing a sword.

I had a client like that one time... As soon as I had one change done, he'd e-mail me with another change. Then another, then another... I described it as being pecked to death by ducks.

My personal way of unearthing shemales (males playing female chars) in MMORPGs, was knocked a little in the last couple of days. 99% of men give their female characters maxed out boobs. However someone I have known in game for getting on a year turned out to be a shemale. Not that that in it's self is a problem, rather that he did the girlie thing so well.

Marv, I lose a good hour posting on the official game forums as well as my guild website. My post count looks good though.

Well, from what I've heard Ren Faires aren't exacly renowned for their strict adherance to historical accuracy... being somewhere around the same level as the SCA (but still better at it than LARP ).

At the Medieval Fayre I went to last weekend there was an area specially set aside for the derogatorily named 'Plastic Re-Enactors'.

Big boots. that's the thing to go adventuring in. And comfortable trousers.

So why does the heroine of one of my own stories struggle across a mountain range in a nun's habit? I am a little bit unkind to my characters.

Speaking of which, have promised the God of Writing that I WILL finish the chapter today. So must go lurk in the library with my quill pen and a bottomless coffee mug.

I've set myself a challenge.
My next RP character, be it table-top or online (I'm intrigued by this online malarkey) will be female.
She will not...
...have oversized breasts.
...be an elf.
...be 'easy'.
...be blonde.

She will...
...dress appropiately.
...have a personality.
...wear armour that actually protects her.
...beat up any male character who automatically assumes she's easy.

Struggling across a mountain range in a nun's habit? Was the charachter a nun? If so thst's a sensible thing to do. I must say though the nun's I've met (not many admitidly) all seem quite sensible sorts who probably could get across a mountain range if asked.

Here's one for you Kerr.

Strange day yesterday. I couldn't get in the building I work in and eventually got told to go home after a suspicious package was found nearby (under an elevated section of a very busy cross city route). Still I was able to get out and do a little bit of hedge trimming.

NOTE do NOT cut a holly bush back wearing a t shirt. You do need long sleves or it will get you!

Mr Dreadful, what is wrong with being blonde?

Lil - as the owner of a pair of FF boobs, I'm not crippled with back pain, although I don't attempt to hold them up with a chain mail bra.

My friend (the one who came to the last meet) once wore her plate mail (and nowt else) for a night on the town. Amazing how many men used the word 'Amazonian' whilst ing over her.

Am still very busy

Nuffin, it's just that stereotypical fantasy chicks are always blonde (unless they're evil, in which case they either have red or black hair).

I had to read that twice, the first image in my head was a woman clanking around in full plate with nothing on underneath...

Well almost -she had on a pair of shorts and the plate mail, um, chest covering bit. Was a big hit with the boys

Talking of chainmail bikinis, you might enjoy this image from the renderosity galleries - Temple Maiden Monthly: http://www.renderosity.com/viewed.ez?galleryid=348244&Start=1&Artist=SnowSultan&ByArtist=Yes

I have an idea for a image along the same lines...

I had a strange conversation with a very small boy last Saturday, at my future-sister-in-law's wedding:
Small boy: What language do you speak?
J: *blank* Uh... English.
SB: Are you Muslim?
J: No, I'm a Christian.
SB: Then how come you're brown?
J: *somewhat floored* *rallies* *explains parentage*

The small boy then proceded to invite me to his party, much to the amusement of me, and his mother who'd just got near...

But still, I found the incident a bit unnerving. I tried to be nice to him, but, I guess it's uncomfortable being reminded that you're different.

Never before has the term 'breast plate' seemed more appropiate

That picture takes the p*ss just nicely j'au-æmne

Not very articulate today, so nothing to add to the discussion, except nods and so on.

[P+G](-Saw my little sister's school play last night.)

We just had a little serverquake. We convene for the apologizence.

The nuns I have known (quite a few) probably were wearing heavy boots. Except for Sister Nathaniel, who was known to walk in the rain with plastic bags on her feet. Maybe you could have your nun-in-the-mountains protect her shoes with some handy plastic bags? It would lend authenticity to the novel.
