(though this message is long and rambly, you should look at the end at least, for there is text slash there)
dudes. i received no fewer than 21 responses to the neville TextSlash challenge. i love you soooooooooooooo much! and there was even an entry from someone not on my flist... though she had to leave it in comments bc i'm a ninny and had my texting option flocked. no more. anyone can text me now.
i'll post them tomorrow, i think, because there was yet another apostrophe mixup and i'm hoping to get that cleared away beforehand. but, may i just say, they are fantastic. you all kept me so entertained today... i'm practically tearing up just thinking about it. many of you also made me look like i'm completely insane as i struggled very, very hard not to laugh too loudly at my centrally located desk.
omg! office gossip! so there's santa, you know, and he works closely with his partner C. i like C, she's friendly but not overly so. a fit and attractive lady in a rather suburban way. and... she and santa are doing the thing! (!!!) E told me this today and i thought she was just yanking my chain but she assured me it's true and it's been happening for years - started when santa was married, which he no longer is. omg! what does this woman see in this bossy, disgruntled, harley-riding santa-man??? have i mentioned the disgusting hacking noises he makes while sitting in his office? what is she doing?
also, i no longer like boss!guy. because - to sum it up briefly - he is stupid about veganism, he almost made fun of a deaf man, he gave me personal projects to work on and he won't let me listen to music in the office. buttwipe.
and now, today's non-challenge text slash... oh, crap, wait. i forgot only part of
starbuckle's came through. jennykins, did you save it? can you resend? see, when y'all send the messages, your lj addresses are part of the message, making it over the character limit. my service automatically splits it into two messages. so most of the messages you send come in two pieces. and i seem to be missing jenny's second piece. which is unusual. don't know what happened there. but! there's this from
camillafarfalla who knows exactly how to tug on my heartstrings:
The arduous trip over the sea left Sam's memory the moment he stepped of the ship. Master Frodo was waiting for him on the shore, smiling.
♥!

Date: 2004-07-18 01:28 pm (UTC)i got the technique from my book-making book (cover to cover). it's called chain stitch. it takes doing a few times to get the hang it but then it's not so hard. it would take a little explaining, though. or i could send you a copy of the instructions if you like.
it's one of my favorite bindings because it's exposed - which i think looks cool - and the book can lie completely flat, unlike with many stab bindings.

Date: 2004-07-18 06:26 pm (UTC)Yeah, I'm a big fan of the exposed bindings, and the whole laying flat thing. It helps that I'm generally enamored of journals of all kinds.

How random was the Frodo and Sam? I was thinking Sirius and Remus, and then it just morphed. whee! am so glad you liked it!
