Brrrrr it's getting cold...
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.

Wait, got it. Replied.
I wasn't doubting your word, I was voicing my annoyance at the slow-ness of the internet.
Okay, I added a little colour to my pic. To see a bigger version, take a look at my blog, I posted it.

Hello Flame.
Hi Phoenix
Hi Flame.
Hi Flame
We skipped it because Derek asked us not to fill it with idle chatter, and we respect the Golden God's wishes
After ALL, he is the Golden God.
Guys, take a look at my blog for the new post.

Damn!

Oh, God. I got it accidentally AGAIN.

*sighs*
Wow, I'm getting no where with this chapter...
... wow
Writers block?
I'm watching Jake and Amir.
Eve got me addicted... It's so funny!
No, it's the TV distracting me.
Stupid TV...
I hardly ever watch TV. Always YouTube and laptop...
Yeah. Same. Unfortunately, it's different with my brother and father...
That's why I'm always in my room. I have my own TV but I only use it if there is something good to watch on Free View.
Goodness!
I forgot dedications.
I dedicate this to Zathract for going out of his way to make a cover for me.
You get a buttload of dedications, Mist...
WB Kai.
Yep.
Oh, and Nix!
I wrote a prequel to Kai Oblivion, coz you said the ordinary to extraordinary, blah blah, you know. You can find it in my blog.
Nix left.
Poop. Stinky poop.
Woah. Thanks, Dylan. :)
Stinky... Poop...???
Well, YOU read it, Shads. You know you like my storiiesss. It's not the first post, though. Scrooolll...
Back!
You're mighty welcome, Mist.
Will go read, and since when have you called me Shads?
WB Eve.
*Thinks about Hitler*
Who the HELL makes the name of their child HITLER?!?!!
He looked up and Nixion became aware of Stavan standing over him. He allowed himself a second to scowl at himself for not noticing sooner and then redirected his scowl at Stavan who was grinning like a…a cat… Nixion had once read about in a book. A…Cherry cat? It wasn’t that Nixion couldn’t remember, it was Nixion could barely read. Damn limited education, he thought angrily. Or rather, damn the bastards who kidnapped him and shoved him into that stupid room where that idiot man shoved that stupid, metal knife up his-
“Can I sit down?” he asked, gesturing to the floor besides Nixion.
Whooops.
I mean Adolf.
Oh sheesh y'all. Of COURSE Jake and Amir is so funny! It's Jake and Amir! And I have no idea why I'm saying this!
Bella: Do you poop?
Edward: I'm not answering that.
Bella: You love me! ANSWER ME! Do you poop?
Edward: No, all I drink is blood, I don't poop.
Bella: Hm.. Well, it says in this book here that everyone poops. *Bella pulls out the book 'Everyone Poops'*
You've got me hooked on it Eve!
Read it Kai.
Eve, did you read the latest part on the Bubble?
Kay.
Hahahaha.
Nixion pondered this.
"no" he decided.
That's good Zath!
I agreed to kill someone in a story...
Mist would do that in the circumstances, but I wouldn't...that would freak me out, despite all my brutality. I'd kill him myself if I was in the right mood, but I wouldn't stand there and watch him die.
Unless he had done something that had pissed me off or I was already pissed off.
I'm a complicated person...
The story was Lynxia's, by the way...
And what kind of cat were you talking about?
Hehe. I'll check, Lynxia.
He was a traitor. You work for the Oz Sanctuary so he got killed. Simples.
Oh, okay. :)
K Eve.
I know. I was talking about me.
Yeah... You see. Lynxia is EXACTLY the same as me. So if she hadn't had her memory wiped she would have killed him...
Vals vids are... cool...
gota go!! bye
See ya Rim! *hugs*
Eve! How do you say your name! I've said it like Eeve and you said it was wrong Ay-va is wrong! How do you say it??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
You say it Arm-i-dill-o.
*grins at Eve*
Really? 0_o
Uh...no.
Exactly. So how do you say it. In my 1st vid I say it like you do in your Names id but apparently that's wrong...
I was kidding, Lynxia...
It's Eev.
Great. I know someone with same spelling who says it Ay-va and you say Eeve and... Whatever.
*laughs*
Eek, it's 35 past 8!
It's 10:36 am here.
Read the story by zi way. Loved it!
K. I might type some more now but I need to do my homework...
*looks at Mist* Do you have to go now? :(
Yup!
...
...
...I'm not going to though.
Must switch to iPod now. Bye!
I mean, brb, not bye.
K Zath.
I have to go now. Bye! *huggies all* *shadow walks*
Bye Shads.
Bye Lynxia!
*waits for mist*
Eve, have you seen my profile pic?
Bye Shadow.
*hugs Eve*
*Looks behind the picture*
It looks like you have a big house, Dylan.
*hugs back and smiles*
Three stories, 100 square metre backyard.
Meant three STOREYS
Including the house, 200 square metres.
*looks at Eve*
Can I do anything for you? Or something?
Nothing except be here. :)
:)
I'll do that then. I'll be distant though, I have to have dinner and my phone internet is laggy (we have all the power off now).
Ah. Okay.
*sits on couch and eats a grape*
Back. Properly now.
Yay. :)
*sits next to Eve on couch*
*smiles and rests head in his shoulder*
Ji
*smiles down at her and wraps arm around her shoulder*
Hi, Flame.
Ji Phoenix.
Raicheadh me hunger games tar eis antaimeall!
...Not gonna ask.
*looks back at Eve*
*looks up at mist and kisses him*
Balh.
Bionn amadan a ta se!
*points at mist*
Hey eve. What about mr?
*kisses back*
I hope you guys don't have translators...
He called you a fool, Mist.
...I will have. I'm on a computer in one minute.
No I didn't.
Amadan also means three other things.
*glares at Flame*
What are the three other things?
Nil ios agam.
Ta me fuar agus te.
You're hot and cold?
Hi people!
The holidays ROCK.
Hi star
Seo.
I have to go.
Bye birches!
*frowns* my phine seems to be acting weird, slow and weirdly slow today . . .
Not kidding. It really is acting all those things. It's freaky.
Uh, Flame, your name is Phoenix Burst...
*phone
No it's not.
It's phoenix flame.
Bladhm- means loads of things.
Many. All Irish words do.
It's meant to be flame phoenix, but yes, he knewit was backwards, phoenix flame.
Are you sure burst doesn't also mean flame?
Oh, and hi jasper.
*Cough* Kai *Cough*
K. Bladm does mean both burst and flame then.
I've got to breathe,
I can't keep goin' under!
Back on a computer!!!
Can I copy and paste this whole page into a comment? I don't know why...
Well at least i'm not calling you pickle.
