abridges famous books in her spare time
believes DG is the 'chosen mod' and that ilx won't be good again until he retakes his rightful place
talks to her dog as if this is the time it might answer

a close reader of ilx will note that she has already admitted to two of the above, one of which max picked out

sometimes i ask my dog what being a dog is like and if he enjoys it, that's about it though.

does your dog answer?

not in so many words.

Japanese toymaker Takara claims it can get you in touch with your inner canine through its new Bowlingual. A radio microphone attaches to Fido's collar, and a handheld receiver "translates" his yelps, growls and whines into such phrases as "I can't stand it," "How boring" and "I'm lonely."

estela, is this:
i met estela and she is fab and beautiful and elegant and just about everything you would imagine her to be an accurate description of you

well it seems awfully generous but i have been accused of being self-deprecating so how can i measure these things.

based on posts i have read from you, and about you, i imagine you to be pale and tall and funny and clever and implacable.

ruby was a lot like i expected her to be except maybe a little bit quieter, she doesn't speak in caps and !!!!!, she is very pretty and has a lovely speaking voice and laugh and is funny and smart, i very liked her.

lingy, can i post a picture of your mii for estela?

lxy nope.

estela i can't think of any of my posts that might indicate what my height is. and thank you for the speculative compliments.

i thought jergins once said you were tall, but maybe i was mistaken and he said nothing of the sort. anyway, that became part of my very sketchy picture of you, though i didn't like you any more or less for it, in fact i didn't really think about it at all.

sometimes i have dreams about ilx people and if i don't know what they look like i don't see their faces: sometimes they are blurred out, or the person has their back to me, or is talking to me from another room, my dream never supplies a face for them.

if i had to guess, i would say you are somewhere in the 5'5 range (that's 5 feet, 5 inches, though i don't know how many meters that is) in height; have brown hair; don't wear glasses regularly; are shy, but overcome this very easily; are witty. probably even more than that too!

i am 5'5'' and i have dark brown hair and i don't wear glasses and i am shy but only in some respects, so that is some pretty good guessing.

if we're on the asl tip i need to say that i'm five foot eleven of all man with deep green eyes as wide and profound as the ocean

E, i have a Q:

did you stop drinking because
A. i don't like this stuff or how it makes me feel
B. i like this stuff too much and too much like how it feels

also, if i ever met u i would have to call you estela, not whatever your real name is. ok?

my eyes are as flat and grey as a photocopied irs letterhead.

my stopping drinking was a mixture of a & b, at first i liked this stuff too much and how it made me feel but by the end i didn’t like how it made me feel which was sick and remorseful and horribly anxious nearly all the time, and not ever drunk no matter how much i drank. that was all a long time ago though and i have adjusted to never drinking ever, and i think everyone should carry on without me, i'm not one for spoiling the party.

i would <3 it if we met and you called me estela, i would always call you jergins. i called ruby ruby the other day, it was nice, i like all our ilx names.

at first i was going to write 'we can carry on without you, not to worry' but there's no reason we can't carry on with you. if you can put up with a bunch of drunks on itr and here it wouldn't be much different in any other context :)

i call lingbert lingbert pretty much always. it's hard to remember his real name sometimes. i'm still not sure i pronounce his last name correctly.

he doesn't pronounce it correctly. we've only been friends for about 2 years though.

also i wish i could always guess as well as i did about estela

gime me time

is it a tricky name, or are you being lazy.

gime me time

where have you been?

The book was called "miles of myles" fyi

During the late 1960s a large transient population of Australia and New Zealand travellers began to use Earls Court as a UK hub and over time it gained the name 'Kangaroo Valley'

the last time i was in dublin my flight arrived super early in the am so i spent the bulk of the morning wandering around trinity college and watching some weird pre-graduation(?) ceremony until i could check-in to my hotel.

how is your francais functioning??

pas mal (most of the time) but i definitely speak better than i comprends because people talk so very quickly. my ear has started to adjust though, i picked up more of what was being said to me today than i did yesterday.
we are in nice until tomorrow, it is very lovely. today we drove to monaco and menton and we popped into italy for a quick visit.

i dreamt we were in paris together. obviously wishful dreaming.

sandbox fap

needs to happen

we seem to be doing it one at a time which is not a proper way to fap, people

i meant it's wonderful but still

i would meet y'all in paris

Would find that rather more difficult to explain tbph

"je vais à un match de PSG avec les gars."

lol, i thought of that exact same excuse.

not for me but for a rogue with a brogue.

tbph: dubious application in above context

i have seen several women here who remind me of lxy and my heart lifts at the sight of them but a pleasing sight is a pretty poor substitute for the real thing imo.

for one thing i am certain they don't laugh as well as i do.

this would all be fixed if i just lived there.

on the champs elxysees?

i'd feel outraged if i thought for a second that 'rogue' wasn't just a handy rhyme tbh

rogue mahone

it is snowing in paris and these chocolates are delicious.

<3

^

i never got a full verdict on the toffee crisp iirc

the toffee crisp was also delicious, iirc i ate it in bed at 6am on the third day of my jetlag which seemed liked suitable toffee crisp behaviour.

i'm at the paris airport, on my way back to australia, i'll see you all on the other side<3<3<3

where is estela? she hasn't posted in aaaaaages.

COME BACK, ESTELA <3

Yeah, estela! We miss you (and your little dog, too!!)!!

i love this silly floating girl: http://yowayowacamera.com/

Major League Baseball today announced its master 2014 regular season schedule, which will begin with the historic 2014 Opening Series between the Arizona Diamondbacks and the Los Angeles Dodgers in Sydney, Australia on Saturday, March 22nd and Sunday, March 23rd.

I bet they go!

i'm guessing scully won't make the trip, but i hope f. does

: ) we discussed this a few months ago when we heard about it and the upshot was that because it's in sydney it will probably cost about half an airfare to dodger stadium to get to so we won't be going.
