Answered emails today. Avoided them all weekend. Made some phone calls. Paid some bills. Life after a tour always seems to stilted. It takes a while to process everything and figure out the best way to tackle a few weeks' worth of stuff piling up outside my door...
While I'm getting back into the swing of things, here's something for you Irish Minions...

And here are a few things that the Minions-With-Funny-Accents gave to me while I was Down-Under...

Hello Robin!
Hi flame and kestrel!*Hugs*
And Lilie. That's just...*shakes head*
Emerald, I'm not going tomorrow.
And guess what? Y'know the comp on SP website to win tickets? I won it..
Ugh Lil, I couldn't put up with it.
S'up? S'up is my mother is... Just.. Ugh.
Flame-Awesome! I didn't enter cause I'm in America...
My dad thinks I'm stupid for ordering the UK copies of books 1-3 when I already have them...
I keep trying to convince my perants to move me but they wont :(
Well done flame!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah- well I'm not going anymore. So, yeah, yippee me!
Does anyone know how much 2.80 pounds is in dollars?
WHY NOT?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
No idea
Can I've your tickets Flame lol
I'm messing, I'm messing.
Sucks, I don't think I'm going at this stage either, I haven't got a phone call back.
Anyone?
She's fucked up.
Mothers usually are Flame.
But seriously have I have your tickets lol
That's mean. Sorry, Flame. That's awful.
*frowns*
I g2g, I,m busy falling asleep!
Sorry, bye! *Hugs*
Bye Lil!
Well anyone wondering the Ameriminions in the south suffering. New Orleans is flooding, Hurricane Isaac.
Bye!
I know...we had a bunch of floods too..
I did hope you all are okay. I said it on the last page at the bottom
Oh...I am fine. They weren't serious where I am...
On a completely different subject, I have found some amazing dresses for the ball, but they are strapless. Does anyone know of a way I could like draw straps in?
Anybody?
Hmmm yes hurricanes suck. Im up north pretty damn far
Hello Gandalf.
Hi Kestrel.
Umm photoshop is the best bet. You could try paint but I don't recommend it. Or try picmonkey with the highlight tool.
But I'd just leave it strapless if i were you, is it a problem?
Ball?
Well, I am 11, so it would be a bit weird to think of myself wearing a strapless dress...
Gandalf-There is going to be a Requiem Ball all day Saturday here.
Can somebody explain what's going on?
OH!!! Why dresses if you can't see one another?
I know what im wearing :) its pretty
Gandalf-We are posting our outfits as our profile pics.
Zaf-I am still stuck between two...:(
I think I do as well actually. What colour Zaf?
I photo-shopped mine so it looks way cooler...
Ok. Requiem Ball. Saturday. Outfit on a profile pic. Got it.
Black. Aaand crap i might not be able to do the profile pic O.o
Yes. Pretty much everyone is coming.
I was goona photoshop mine... Mine's blueeeee!
Zaf-why not?
Mine's black! But I changed the picture a bit so the picture itself looked cooler...
Going now. Be back later (possibly) Night?
Bye!
Bye people who are leaving!
Just Robin...
an hour and a half...
I will be getting four new SP books soon....
I have lots of SP books... I'm still waiting for three of them from Derek to get here.
I only have six, but soon I will have 10.
In total, with all the books still being shipped, I have 27.
Woah...My dad thinks I'm ridiculous for ordering SP and PWF in UK version when I already have them in US version.
Should I do Steampunk, or something a bit more elegant?
If you're having trouble with requiem ball dresses, here.
http://dolldivine.com/
Gandalf-Formal. Like ball-gown formal. No semi-formal or casual. Pretend you are actually going to the ball.
Dinner. BRB.
Bye!
Please explain shipping. NOWWW!!
So, Val you have your dress? And I am assuming that you know when your copy of KOTW arrives?
Thrust- Hi! and what?
hi kes. shipping characters.
Is anyone else hoping that Derek will put up a post just for the ball? So we have a full 5000 comments for it. That would be good.
Whats that about?
Thrust-Basically, it is saying that you want them to end up together. So if you want, say, Ghastly and Tanith together, you would say that you ship Ghanith.
That is a weird name...
Nobody answered my question. Steampunk, or something more elegant?
Gandalf- It is better than the name Chinduggery(huge supporter of this, and have converted many from Valduggery)
ohhh kayy... that explains a bit. Why do they have to connect the names?
I did. Basically, it should be as formal as possible. Pretend you were going to the real Ball. Would you wear that? Most of us are spending a long time searching through ballgowns online. I don't know what Steampunk is though, so I can't give a definite answer.
and whay is it called shipping?
Thrust-Probably because it is faster to say than saying I support Ghastly and Tanith.
Oh goddess, I ship Chinduggery so hard... Valduggery is just wrong.
Thrust-I've got no clue.
And I really don't know, Thrust.
And still, NOBODY ANSWERED MY QUESTION!!!
Gandalf-Exactly. Plus, its kind of obvious that she's in love with him. By the way, do you object to me calling you Gandalf? Cause I can stop if you want....
Gandalf-I just answered it!
Kestrel answered it twice!
Thank you Val! And I just looked it up, and you probably should do something else.
Hello?
Hello Jess. Love your picture.
Hi Kestrel LeStarre! Love your NAME. Do you know Phoenix?
Thank you. Phoenix Mithrandir? If so, than yes. She's on right now.
Really?!? She didn't bother to tell me THIS! Where is she?
Looking for a dress for the Requiem Ball we're having on Blogland, Saturday. So, she is a bit distant, and on Google Images.
You still there Jess, and Val, and Gandalf?
Yes, just distant.
Ok...
OH MY GOD 45 MINUTES TILL KINGDOM OF THE WICKED
Yes.
TIMEFORTHEFREAKISHLYAWESOMEFANGIRLISHNESSTHATISSUPEREXTREMELYEXCITEDTOCOMEOUT!
Val I have it and am going to see Derek again tomorrow:)

fLAME-How dare you! My parents said I am going to have to go eat dinner in 15 minutes! I am going to miss watching it go down to 0. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Flame-Just kidding, that's awesome!
LESS THAN 40 MINUTES!
Jess was here. Wonderful.
Oh, my god. I f you comment and I don't reply, it is probably because I am running around my room screaming my head off.

Read this. It is so sad...
Heheh. I pre-ordered it a while ago.
*stares at computer screen*
*uses all self control not to click the '1 day shipping button'*
I did like a month or two ago...
Val- I don't even see that...and I already pre-orderd it.
Hello!
I preordered it back in July...
*frowns*
I gave my mom $50 for all of my purchases on her account and here it says I only spent $35?!
Hello!
Hello Cal. 31 minutes....
Wheeeeeeeeee! I got first!
I dedicate this page to KOTW.
MAY IT BE WONDERFUL AND MAY I GET IT ASAP.
Val, dedicate. I need something to distract me...!
Oh, wait, no, I had to add $20 for shipping.
*scowls*
Val- Perfect dedication. Exactly what I was gonna do if I got first.
She dedicated it to KOTW... don't think that helps.
True. But...Merely the fact that I'm on here shows that i don't really want to be distracted...so...!
*dies*
I need my book.
28 minutes...
KOTW!!! COME TO ME!!!
*dies along with Val*
Gandalf-Do you mind me calling you Gandalf? I can stop if you want...
*swears about not having an extra $20 to change the shipping to one day for KOTW*
I want to soul it soooo much right now.
Soul it? *confused*
I thought you were dead....
*Swears about being in the U.S. and not Ireland or N.Z or Australia*
Spoil
30 minutes!!!
Well, who says the dead can't talk? Skulduggery talks.
21 minutes...
Val-True, Dusk, and Caelan, and Thrasher and Scapegrace too.
How the hell is it 21 minutes? It's 26 minutes is it coming out five minutes early or something?
And when Valkyrie was dead she was talking.
19 minutes...
The clock is off...
But hey, whatever, let's just say it's coming out in 18.
Robin-On the countdown on skulduggerypleasant.co.uk that is what it says.
17 minutes...
NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!1 YOU'VE GO TTO BE FORKING KIDDING ME!!!!!!I HAVE TO GO EAT DINNER!NOW?!!? Now of all times? Really? Couldn't it have been an hour ago, so I could be here when it reached zero? WHY?!?!?!?
15 MINUTES...
Eat fast.
The clock is wrong.
Heeellppp
ONE MINUTE LEFT!
It's not right.
See look it's a full five minutes to midnight. The clock is wrong GAH.
I'm talking about on the countdown...
And OH MY GOD IT JUST CAME OUT!
I know it's wrong, but hey! Five minutes early!
Oh God.
I'm refusing to be excited for another two minutes.
1 minute!
One minute
Midnight.
WOOOOOOOOOOOH IT IS OFFICIALLY OUT! YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!
*does a victory dance*
KINGDOM OF THE WICKED!!!!!!!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH IT'S OFFICIAL KOTW IS HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEREEEEEE
*frowns* Now why isn't it in front of my face.
It's here! I have it! It shall be completed tonight!
*tackles Flame for his book* *can't steal it because he's in another country*
oh well... At least I've read up to chapter three...
It is out! DAMN IT, I MISSED THE OFFICIAL CELEBRATION!
You got it? just like that, flame?
That's impressively fast.
Val- How did you do it up to three? Where are chapters 2-3?
I refused to read the sneak previews otherwise I'll go insane.
Sorry, I can't tell.
val- PLEASE! YOU'RE KILLING ME!
I do have something to say, though:
BUTTERFLIES DON'T NEED TROUSERS!!!
Ahaahahhahahah.
Val where you get them?
Amazon?
*bites nails nervously* That better not be a KOTW spoiler.
Very true. That one I read.
"Sorry, I have to go. She's just set fire to her knees."
Bloody brilliant.
Robin-Just a little sentence from the first chapter which is previewed.
Oh.. I love KOtW.
DON'T YOU DARE GIVE ANY SPOILERS!
VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!! *tackle hugs*
Yeah, I ordered mine from Amazon...
Stupidly, the website failed to let me know that I accidentally bought a paperback rather than hardback. Stupid American version of the site.
*mutters angrily*
Hello Adra!
AAAAAADDDDDDDDDDDRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAA! *tackle hugs back*
Did you see the pictures I sent you?
Val-I got paperback too. All of mine are paper, so I figured I'd keep the tradiotion.
NO
WHAT
*goes to get phone*
You guys know that we will all be here on Saturday reading KOTW so the Ball will be us trading comments about it right?
*facewalls repeatedly* I can't handle not having this book.
I don't know if I sent you the picture of me as Clarabelle, but you got the one of my sisters, right? XD
*slams head into keyboard* I will continue to do this until it comes....
*continues slamming and muttering to self*
