Yes, I'd still like to borrow the movie, and I'm Luna, Daughter of Poseidon, though I'm a lot like my aunt, Athena!

Jenjen! I just remembered another DWJ book you should read: "Aunt Maria." It's really great. (It seems like her strongest characters are old women: Sophie, Aunt Maria, Granny, etc.) I've found "Witch Week," but still no Howl. *Sniff* ;)

Kay, I'll look for them at the local bookstores and used bookstores, too! Thanks!

*goes off muttering under breath*

Eight Days of Luke, Aunt Maria.

No, I haven't figured out the tomatoes thing (I really need to read all the Chrestomanci books again). I think I'm going to at least skim "Caprona" pretty soon, so I cn find that place....

Aack! Guys! How could we let our DWJ official web page fall to the third page??? Must. Bring. To. Top. 

In order to do so: Jenni, do you live in the middle of nowhere (no pun intended) or in a city/town? I'm definitely out in the middle of nowhere....

This is out of the blue, and you'll probably think I'm crazy, but as of last May 29th, I've been writing down my dreams. It's fun, a good writing exercise, and I've gotten a lot of story material out of them. I think I might post some of them, some time, and parts of stories I've gotten out of them. You'd be amazed how much clearer and easier to remember dreams get after you write them down for a little while! (Wow. If you read that in the right voice, it sounds like a commercial!)

Yeah it does (sound like a commercial, i mean) Oh no this is on the second page this better push it up.

No! We have to have a discussion on here, or the thread will harden off and become a nastier thread, and forever will the poor boy get killed by his own dogs! We can't let the thread harden off, Haley--er--oops. Sorry. Caught in the moment, ya know? Anyway, we have to talk about something. :):) ~('>')~ (girl with pigtails)

Okay. Something to talk about......Oh! I know!!! My friend Vivian S will be coming on soon!! She's Veronica's little sister. No, I'm not Veronica, I was just teasing Veronica for posting on the SI thread first off by saying that she was me. Anyway. Vivvie is right between your age and mine, and she is very like both of us.....so we'll be triplets soon!! She is a Diana fanatic, too, and is NOTHING like Veronica, who only reads Twilight, unless a teacher forces her to do a reading assignment, which she hates.
