/me sighs in relief

People are taking their bloody time in getting back to me on the movie-going thingy. Princess Grace can't go if it's Thursday, and it prolly will be. Everyone else just said "probably." :b (Paging Princess Grace, by the way: If you've got anyone else'e emails, drop me a line. I've got Twig's email (and she's on here as well) and Apple's (somewhere), but other than that I am at a sore loss for pestering purposes.)
seramercury - the sticker got here. You ROCK. (Parents are wondering about the mail-from-random-person thing, though... hmm.)
I realized something last night: Cincinnati and Newport are the current foci of Crowley and Aziraphale, respectively. Those of you here who've read GO (just brazenbells?) know what I mean. For everyone else: Cincinnati is kinda sorta falling apart in terms of community cooperation, sports (certainly football), etc., and then there's that whole boycott business (which I think is down to three or four participants). Newport if directly across the river and... at least five times as spiffy. Barnes & Noble! Southgate House! Aquarium! Really freakin' good ice cream!
Oh. (Sort of) icon premiere. Actually used it first at discworld last night, since it's based on a sign from Thief of Time. Someone else has the "keep left (right?)" sign. XD

Mwahahaha. I wonder what would happen if they traded foci for a week... ;)

*tries to ignore your icon*

[minkhollow]

Not sure the denizens of Over-the-Rhine would know what to think. (That's been the REALLY big problem spot in recent years.) And come to think of it, I'm positive Crowley has it in for the Bengals. We'll see how they do this year - rumors are they're on an upswing. XD
::tries to ignore icon as well:: (Rather tricky, isn't it?)

Ooh! We should go hunting for the demon :D. Well, we could go hunting for the angel too, but I can't even work the elevator at the levee, much less get around Newport. ::laughs::

I loved Thief of Time.

Come to think of it, that's very suspicious. Intermingling of the Crowleyesque with the Aziraphalesque....

Dude. They are here! :D

[minkhollow]

Now what I want to know is, why didn't either of us think of this sooner?

[minkhollow]

I can't even work the elevator at the levee, much less get around Newport.
We didn't bother with the elevator. Went to the aquarium, then... some restaurant or other (or maybe that was first? Eh, it was spring break, the order's not important), then Barnes & Noble*, then the yummy ice cream place. Cake batter ice cream.
Southgate House was a different trip, but still cool.
And Thief of Time was awesome. (Obviously. XD)

*Whereupon I got Hogfather, which eventually spawned the Thriving Pratchett Trade. Should've done sooner, I could've read the whole series by the time my source graduated. XD
But I got him to read GO. So, all is well.

Cake batter???

::wants!::

We were trying to get to the movie theatre. We just couldn't work the elevator, because, well, they can't just number things properly. It's P3, P2, P1, something, and Riverwalk. Would one through five be so hard?? Would it??

[minkhollow]

::nods:: Cake batter-flavored ice cream. The stuff is DEADLY.
And yes, it is that hard to do simple numbers. If they did that people would get to where they were going right away and wouldn't come off the experience half so frustrated, whuch is somehow Not Good For Business.
(::pokes:: Do you get the Enquirerer and if so did you read today's Speed Bump?)

...Hey! Now it's stuck in MY head!

[minkhollow]

Always the way, isn't it.

Glad you like it! :)

Newport is MUCH better than Cincy.

I never take the elevator at the Levee cause it never comes. The stairs are my friend.

[minkhollow]

Yea verily, 'tis not bogus. (Their expressions certainly match that description, but that's not my point.) Now I just gotta think of something to do with it...
Newport is MUCH better than Cincy.
Precisely why I gave it the credit of angelic influence - you need to read Good Omens. You'd like it - funny!Apocalypse.
