[Theodosia of the Fathomless Hall]

*nods, embarrassed*
So. Read any good books?

[mels]

Eh. Just rereading at the moment... I have to wait till Monday to go to the library, so...
You?

[Theodosia of the Fathomless Hall]

Well. Shadowfell by J. Marillier, Moon Over Manifest by Clare Vanderpool, Perchance To Dream by Lisa Mantchev (which is oddly a re-read too!)
For an awkward conversation-beginner this exchange might have hopes :D. Have you read any?

[mels]

Hm... Nope! xD
I haven't read much of anything...

[Theodosia of the Fathomless Hall]

Mm, do you really say so? I would expect both of us--eh, this whole thread--reads more than most!

Ah. I would deffo recommend them in any case. Especially Perchance to Dream, 2nd book in an excellent trilogy. Whimsy and amusement and, admittedly trite, romance. First is called Eyes Like Stars.
Anyway. May I inquire whether you have watched the BBC production known as "Merlin"?

[mels]

XD Welllllll compared to normal people, perhaps... But on here, nope xD

I'll have to check them out :)
No ma'am, I have not.

[Theodosia of the Fathomless Hall]

Right-o! Normal people, mmm? Lol. Well, adios, arrivederci, au revoir! I am off to watch the aforementioned TV show with mes famille.
Thanks for talking! Have a good weekend ;).

[mels]

xD
Aw, bye!!!!!

Ah, but does it not prove that at times non-creativity can be beautiful, and is not always bad?

[Madi]

Has anyone read The Phantom Tollbooth?

[mels]

I read it... About 8 years ago...

In a simplistic manner, doubtlessly, and at times it does eclipse the overwrought fancy of intricacy but personally I find the latter more amusing.

*waves* Hello!

*nods* Four years ago. I remember it as being very neat.

[mels]

*finds dictionary*
Hello, Bob!!!!!

[Theodosia of the Fathomless Hall]

Dictionary? I declare, instead of a dictionary this thread needs a thesaurus.
Hello, Melisquish! Thanks for the welcome, I feel honored :D. Funnily enough, I think the compliments for my vocabulary increase rather than decrease the frequent polysyllabics. But that is probably what you need a dictionary for, mm?

[mels]

XD
Hello!
Polysyllawhat? XD

[Theodosia of the Fathomless Hall]

A word which makes up more than four syllables. Like...A word of eleven letters which I've forgotten. Polymath with a scattered brain, you see, *nods wisely*.

So, how is your Sunday?

[mels]

Oh!

I'm pretty good... Science final tomorrow... And, I started studying yesterday... Oops...
And orientation for volunteering at the library tomorrow...

[Theodosia of the Fathomless Hall]

BRILLIANT. Good luck!! That sounds utterly lovely-Are you volunteering for a summer reading program, or the normal year-long volunteering? I hope you like it! It can be a little tedious but exciting: especially if you're gifted with going around the shelves straightening books. Because you do have a chance to revisit old, adored favorites in that case!

Ahem. See, I started volunteering three weeks ago, so it's terrific to have a fellow volunteer ;).

Oops. Well. You'll do fine! Best not to be anxious, nerves will just flub it up. Which is a reassuring phrase, but sincerely.

[mels]

A summer reading program :)
Hopefully soon I can get a year long one, or maybe even a job... *excitedly nervous*
You are, too? Awesome!!!!!

[Theodosia of the Fathomless Hall]

Yes! That would be sweet. I hope all goes well. I was too. But I realized I was probably one of the least nervous, and whereas I was a newbie the rest had volunteered prior to that. So, it'll go well.
Yes, indeed! For a SRP, at our regular (now ir-regular branch since we're visiting others) branch...

[Theodosia of the Fathomless Hall]

I'll bid you arrivederci: Breakfast is now ;). Have a good afternoon!

[mels]

:)
That's awesome! :)

Aw, have fun eating!

[johanna (jo), soliloquist.]

*blinks at Em's posts* *buys the biggest dictionary I can find* *gives up*

[Theodosia of the Fathomless Hall]

*blinks* Curious. Well....
Arrivederci is Italian for good-bye?
Intricacy is the noun form of intricate, well, self-evidently.
Overwrought... I shan't continue. I confess because I don't wish to cause any offence by appearing patronizing. Get a vocabulary, dang it! *glares academically around*.
Lol. I know you guys do have exceeding vocabularies.

[Theodosia of the Fathomless Hall]

Hm. But I am honored. Sorry to say, but we'll have to chat soon... Erk. I am sorry. I'm off to read in our sunroom... Sundays are made for lounging ;).
Have a good day, filled with cream in tea, sunlight piercing ash and mulberry leaves...and words. Mm? I am a poetical genius, if I do say so myself.

[mels]

Aw, bye, Bob!
And your words are confusing xD

[johanna (jo), soliloquist.]

I have a headache. o.o

[mels]

XD moi aussi :)

[Madi]

Anyone read the Phantom Tollbooth????

Wait...don't answer that.
