After a bizarrely warm November, it's starting to get pretty cold indeed around these parts. Christmas decorations are everywhere. Shopping queues are getting longer. This morning I heard "Merry Christmas (The War is Over)" on the radio- the first Christmas song I've heard in 2011. And a few days ago I posted a TON of cards and letters to readers who had written to me- so it is OFFICIALLY close to Christmas. I can now safely announce it.
You may rejoice.
And the competition winners may ALSO rejoice, because the books I have to sign have finally arrived. I'll sign them all this weekend, have them ready to be picked up on Monday or Tuesday, and then hopefully you'll be getting your prizes over the next few weeks. It'd be cool if you could get them BEFORE Christmas, so that's what we're working towards.
There's still a lot of work going on in my house. I'm getting one of the rooms refurbished- COMPLETELY redesigning it- as well as the kitchen redone, and that's been going on since the start of October. Basically, it means a lot of noise and hassle and interruptions, so I haven't been able to focus on Book Seven, which I really would have liked to have started by now. But hey, I'm not worried. My house is going to RULE when it's all finished, because finally I'll have a proper place to store my toys.
A lot of you may not know this, but I love toys. I collect movie memorabilia and props and stuff, and also comic-book statues. To give you an idea of the kind of things I'm talking about, here are a few action figures...
... and a rather large Iron Man (I've put a book beside him to give you an idea of scale)...
Oh, and here's a 12 inch figure of Sweeny Todd about to give a 12 inch Ichabod Crane a very close shave...
Boy oh boy do I love toys...
As you can imagine, my place is full of equipment boxes right now, so I'm going to leave you with a picture of one of my cats- Pooper- doing what cats love best: clambering into cardboard boxes for no apparent reason.

«Oldest ‹Older 2201 – 2400 of 4817 Newer› Newest»No! Only you can have that title as otherwise it'd be weird! Cuz first time I was here you and Sparky were fighting and she was taking the mick and.... and.... and.... You're just not the same without your old name! *on verge of major tantrum!!!*
oh and crys.. that was one of the reasons i changed cos people were calling me PHAME
I think, and this is my opinion, that Flame Phoenix was wayyyy better than Phoenix Nightslayer. By a mile.
I agree with Crys!
and that was another again caused by that damned sparky
she created PHAME btw
Ya when I first came you were here with Val and NJ fighting zombies and your name was Flame Phoenix and I remember thinking thats a really coool name
Fine! I'm not talking to you any more!!!!! I'll only talk to Crys! *folds arms and goes 'hmph'!*
ok what if i change back to flame.... but keep nightslayer?
Okay, I can live with that. Nightslayer kinda suits you. What about your old pic?
Yes!! Do that!

Good-ish, you?
im fine, we had a hail storm at end of school. the bus didnt turn up till AFTER the hail, i had to look down at the floor s the hail was hurting my face
Oh, we didn't have anything light that but we did have a 10 min detention (all of us not just me, I haven't done anything illegal in the past 24 hours) because nobody owned up to spilling the water - it was some idiot called Tom.
i never had a detention. you had detention for someone spillin water
that is not fair, if one of us spill water, they have to clean it up
Yeah. It was all over sir's computer so he lost the stuff he had been working on.
oh, i wish somein funny would happen in my schwl
