My boss tried to look like a Mafia Don today, all shiny fabrics and pinstripes. It abjectly failed, though. He so shouldn't wear that sort of thing.

I remembered Gimel plays the guitar - she could volunteer to accompany Jeannie when she sings for Tomjon, so they'd meet this way. Then happy brain implosion can happen.

schiarire 's Molière question. He needs to consult more experts, he says. In the meanwhile, he talks and talks per email instead of getting himself an LJ like a sensible person. And he sends stuff I don't want. On Saturday he sent a Le Monde article about some rugby game, of all things!! I threatened to send him a red envelope with pepper and cat's hair in it (instead of a Howler, which I can't do, being a muggle) if he doesn't let up, but only after I got the answer about Molière, because I wanted that first before damaging him with the pepper and probably putting him out of commission with the cat's hair. He poked fun at me today over this, saying I would never get that Molière answer now, as he'd get pepper then once he doesn't have that hold over me any more. A rather ditzy way of me to threaten him, I must admit. A bit like the apples and flowers on Sunday...

discworld_rpg got the Creature from the Dungeon Dimensions because that's dissolved and only goo now. Thus, I am so totally pet-less at the moment.
...for Circuitiously and Ambagiously Plotted Courses
The other day, I cycled the other way just out of curiosity and ended up halfway in the next village. I took an hour for the ten minutes' ride to the station. It was beautiful weather, though, not too hot and not too windy; ideal for cycling crosscountry a bit - at one stage, I ended up on a soggy riding path. I didn't do it on purpose, but I enjoyed it.

I got Zer Handbook today - meaning to say, the Discworld Reformed Vampyre's Diary from last year. It has Octeday every week. I like Octeday. The Nazgul suggested dividing the hours of the week by eight and then recalculating the days to make room for an Octeday. She liked the idea very much as well.

I noticed Otto actually looks quite a lot like Adrien Brody around the eyeybrows and the nose in Kidby's version, don't you think?
But they didn't mention Margolotta! I wanted there to be a Kidby drawing of her! She only gets mentioned once, as making a speech that impressed somebody, and then is called a "Countess", too.
*sulks*

first step to getting kidby margo: somehow make pterry write another ubervald-margolotta-featuring book!

Well, there might be some Margo in that Art of Discworld book that's being announced and postponed all the time...

The pages don't have numbers, tough. Otto's mentioned as archivist of the League, and he's in the large picture somewhere in the front part that has all the League officers. He's on the back cover, in shape of a little pile of ash. Then he's on the Octeday of the week from Grune 28th to August 3rd. With a picture all of his own.
Margolotta just gets mentioned that once...
