Round 14, the Mystery Hours (Hour 44 provisional.)

[http://users.livejournal.com/idlewild_/]

We seem to be missing a mod. If I'm overstepping a bound, I hold out my hand for a firm smack with a ruler. But in the meantime, here's a provisional hour 44. Report!

(Bet there were ninjas involved. Why does it always have to be ninjas?)

Because they're stealthy!

I did manage to get some writing done the last couple of hours, while I was waiting for my dinner to cook, and afterwards.

Woohoo! Good work fitting some writing in around foodage.

There were ninjas. We will not speak of the distraction they caused.

ooh mysterious and all that!

[lullabymoon]

There was ebay, knitting, pizza and several wikis. It was not a pretty sight.

We seem to have lost juliet316. I'll do this hours post but lolmac should be taking over next hour.

Well, knitting.

I purposely left my current crochet project (in a snit with all my knitting projects) at the office this weekend so I wouldn't complete a shawl and no writing whatsoever. Are you on ravelry?

Yay... we get an hour 45 post!

[lullabymoon]

I've tried that. I just start something else at home! Yes, I am on ravelry, although I'm still getting used to the place (and I find it's a terrible, terrible time suck. Why so many gorgeous patterns I want to do!!!!!!)

:D

I know, it's just full of knitting/crochet candy!

[lullabymoon]

I draw the line at the knitted underwear though. I think that may classify as going too far.

Even, or especially, the one knitted out of raspberry "licorice" strands.

[lullabymoon]

Oh god, yes. Thankfully, I had managed to miss that one up until now...

[http://users.livejournal.com/idlewild_/]

Muahahaha. I'm not entirely sorry for making you aware of it!

[lullabymoon]

:P You are an evil, evil person.

I hope the ninjas get you.

...

Well, no I wouldn't wish that on anyone.

:P

I think I can take the ninjas. ;)

[lullabymoon]

Phft. I'll believe that when I see it. No one can withstand the ninjas for long.

I shall call in the Mounties. No ninja can defeat the power of Canadian earnestness.

*snert* Harmless amusement #506: introducing otherwise unflappable knitters to the raspberry licorice underwear. ;-)

(I only do it very occasionally. Honest! *g*)

I'm still stuck in research mood. Maybe I will manage to get some actual fic written before the end of this rush, maybe...

[http://users.livejournal.com/idlewild_/]

My biggest achievement this weekend will definitely have been research, but that's important because it can be the difference between engaging, absorbing fiction and something anodyne.

[clocketpatch]

I think I need to incorporate anodyne into conversation more often.

It's a lovely word!
