The ^ > V game
^ Cool.> Same here.
V Good Morning/Afternoon/Evening!
^ Afternoon!> Desires to compose music but struggles with music theory.
V Likes to cook
^ Good luck!> I like baking a lot more.
V Swirly chair?
^ Yup. It's like a tiger with arthritis, though - it growls and fusses and doesn't like to move smoothly. But it's got a big back and soft wooden arms that I have to exercise every restraint not to carve nonsense into them, so I quite like it. :)> I am getting the hang of Dungeons & Dragons! I am so proud of myself.
V Plays D&D.
(Oh, and Irene, I know the hardships of music theory. I took a Music Appreciation class a few years back, and I loathed learning it. However, if you ever got a chance to watch these lectures: http://www.amazon.com/Understanding-F... I think it might be a lot easier. Professor Greenberg is a genius. He's funny, easygoing, explains everything, and is a composer himself. See if your library has any of these lectures. They're from The Teaching Company, a company that produces lecture series, and I highly recommend "Understanding the Fundamentals of Music." I learned so much from those lectures!Anyway, ramble over. Just a thought. ^_^)

^ Yeah, probably.> THEY BROUGHT BACK AURORA AND PHILLIP AND MULAN. They only dropped off the face of the show....
V Revolution tonight? Eh, it looks lame.
Mod
> I don't think my sisters (at least Paige) like Mulan. She's ok. Aurora is kind of annoying. And I don't know enough about Phillip to say anything. AND I KNEW NEAL COULDN'T BE DEAD!!!!
v Knew it too (I mean, they can't just kill him off the show)
^ Exactly. They just brought him in. ( I don't really like them all that much but I was really surprised. They just disappeared.)> I'll probably stick to Castle tonight.
