Today I am a silly monkey.

[neverwhere]

Anyone want to come to Holland with me?

Neil Gaiman, Phillip Pullman, Brian Froud and other wonderful people are all going to be at the Elf Fantasy Fair on 23 April. Sounds like heaven to me. Even if it is in Holland. *grins*


I found a film with one of the silliest titles I've ever heard -- Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter. Apparently its a combination of Rocky Horror, Jesus Christ Superstar and WWF Smackdown. *laughs* I'm sure pouk23 (and just about every other twisted person on my friends list) would love it. :)


Random thought of the day: Why is a mouse when it spins?

Also -- why the heck does Peter Piper get such a thrill from picking all those damn pickled peppers? And how exactly did he do it anyway? Pickles are neither picked nor peppered, as they're fermented cucumbers. It makes no sense!


And now some self abuse with hobbits.

Well, he used to have his own forums on both Compuserve and GEnie back in the early 90s so he was pretty easy to find. He was just "that Sandman guy" to most of the world so I guess he was desperate for any fen he could wrangle. LOL Lucy Anne is much much cooler since she's been mentioned by name on more than one occasion on http://www.neilgaiman.com -- she does research and archival work for http://www.thedreaming.com

I am jealous of her to be honest. :) Me, I'm just a boring old fan girl (although I will admit that it's kind of cool that Neil has copies of *my* books in his library -- they're only books on doll collecting but still...)

Aiiiii she's the infamous LucyAnne! Of course I know who she is, she and Puck used to keep the Dreaming the only source for Neil news. That is just so astoundingly cool!

Wow. Neil has your books. Wow. :)))

(Guhhh, you're rendering me completely speechless! Stop it right now. ;-)

Re: *jaw drop*

Yes, she is *THE* LucyAnne. :) I have several other friends who know him much better than I do too -- they get real letters and Xmas cards from him whereas I just get emails on occasion. I just don't like to be a pest.

In all seriousness, I'm just a boring old fan girl! No reason to be speechless at all! :)

*re-reads your last reply*

*re-reads again*

*babbles incoherently*

Oh.My.GOD. Your friends get christmas cards from Neil!? AAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!!! *faints*

And you could too? Curse your shyness! Milk your good fortune for all its worth girl! *lol* ;-)

I don't know how I'm going to be able to sleep now. *laughs*

Re: *jaw drop*

I don't know if I could get letters/cards from him -- I just get emails. I just don't write to him that often cos I don't want to be a pest! :)

Now I feel guilty that i've got you so giddy! :)

>Now I feel guilty that i've got you so giddy! :)

*laughs*

Nonononono! Please don't feel guilty, you've made me tremendously happy! *big squishy hugs* :D

Re: *jaw drop*

[ragdoll.livejournal.com]

Yay. Big squishy hugs are good. :-)

Btw, have you see this news?.

Re: *jaw drop*

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

OMG I know this girl. She had the only Neverwhere site for yonks. (I always meant to have my own Neverwhere shrine, complete with a Croup and Vandermar online buisness, but I never got around to it. Plus I'm not a very good web designer. *G*)

Once again -- you RULE. :)

Re: *jaw drop*

[ragdoll.livejournal.com]

I know this girl very well too. We've been friends for like 10 or more years. :) She's a sweetie! Actually, I'm not sure there's anyone in the world who doesn't know TaraLJC but I knew her before she was Famous.

Re: *jaw drop*

Gahhhhh.

Stop making me dribble woman. *lol*

Awwww...you're making me laugh so hard!

Re: *jaw drop*

*curtsies*

I aim to please.

*waggles eyebrow in a most amusing way* :D

Re: *jaw drop*

[ragdoll.livejournal.com]

*giggle* I'm also just shocked and stunned that anyone would be that impressed by me (or even my cooler-than-me friends since we're still pretty geeky in person!)

Re: *jaw drop*

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

I'm always impressed by geeky people (because I am one! Yayyy geeks!) and my GOD your friends are amazing. You lucky sod. *laughs*

Re: *jaw drop*

[ragdoll.livejournal.com]

Ah, you seem pretty damn cool yourself, girlie. :)

Re: *jaw drop*

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

*blushes happily*

Why thank you! I am rather impressive (and witty, and stylish, and fun...oh, I could go on) aren't I. ;-)

Re: *jaw drop*

[ragdoll.livejournal.com]

You are indeed. :)
