And another thing for Jen:

I also mentioned the Hindu wedding ritual of "Saptapadi" (which translates approximately as "seven steps"). The phrasing sometimes differs from what Wikipedia has there, but the sentiment on pretty much every website dedicated to Hindu wedding ceremonies (including the Unitarian Church of Ottawa, LOL) is similar.

Ahahahaha... ouch.

(Whenever anyone asks me what an English major can do - why, screw companies out of millions of dollars! Stupid Rogers.)

Also, Ikea totally wins all my love today.

I'm just going to keep posting, damnit

Also: because I didn't put it up yesterday (it was on my personal computer, which has no internet, but now I have moved it to the den, so it now has internet! yay!), here is my "submission" for this week's writing challenge.

It is only 600 words, sadly. Was background for the D&D character that I made for a game Pat was going to run, although I don't know if that's going to happen. It doesn't really matter, but she's an elf. Time frame is the D&D equivalent of post-WWI.

And yes, while they live in the D&D equivalent of England, everything is named/nicknamed in German. SHUT UP. (Schatzi = "treasure", "Engelmaar" is "Angel-sea" or similar.)
