I appear to have finished my dissertation, with a word count of 11,027 words. Yay! I'm just trying to decide whether to get it all printed out now and take it to the place where they bind them for you and hand it in today, or leave it, print it out at home and get it bound and handed in tomorrow.
Oh whatever, who's for celebratory cake?
I totally love you for being so verbose that you put 251 words on my dissertation without me having to think of anything original to write. Thank you thank you thank you.
I am less keen on your view that men and women can never be friends without sex getting in the way, but I am prepared to forgive you this as long as I find something else that can be quoted either from The Lord of the Rings itself or from your letters, that will take me up to 6000 words and thus over the half way point (my dissertation has to be 10 - 15000 words, I'm aiming for 12000).
Here's to more incredibly long 'cannot be edited in anyway without spoiling the meaning' passages!
Love,
Fiona.
P.S. Legolas and Gimli: were they?
Some guy sat near me in the computer room of the university library is blasting music from his headphones. I can't hear what it is exactly, but you know when you can hear the bassline? Well I'm getting the bassline and a squealy guitar solo. I am so going to kill him if he doesn't turn it off soon. I might just bash him over the head with this keyboard because the space bar is a bit sticky on it anyway, I'm sure the university won't miss it.
What I mostly came to do was to write down my idea for something for the Retro theme at GoS so that I don't forget it later. I was thinking I could make posters of the old WW2 propaganda posters (you know, like "loose lips sink ships" and that sort of thing). But then I was kind of wondering how easy it would be to photoshop out the text and replace it with Simlish. I know there's a Simlish font out there somewhere. Not really sure what poster mesh to use though, I'd have to go home, boot up the game and find a suitable one, though I am thinking that one of Aikea's wall writing meshes would be best. I would have to remember how to recour them first though (what? It's been over a year, don't look at me like that!)
Back to the dissertation anyway. Fun fun fun.
