If there's a male guardian to represent her, whyever would the girl have to be there to hear about her own future? For that matter, why have any woman there at all, or any of the slaves, except as a courtesy to the family and to save time in having to repeat the information? Except for the dowry, business is really none of a woman's business. You must be one of these modern types who think women need to know what's going on beyond the kitchen, the nursery, and the loom. If Calatoria's guardian knows what's good for her, he'll find her a nice widower with children who need a woman in the house to take care of them.
Anyway, Justa is up in the hills playing her own Choose Your Own Adventure.
I'm trying, but it's probably not happening tonight. Too many noisy distractions around me getting in the way of focussing on anything... it's like having a dozen crazed poodles in here some days. The muse appparently won't show up when the house is full of crazed poodles....
I'm game for elfchat. As long as you don't let me spend the entire evening talking about how there's no hope for escape from the bleak sameness of a pointless existence stretching ahead, and stuff like that.

Hrm. I think some lazy friend of yours was supposed to be working on one of those as well.

Date: 2007-04-15 01:55 pm (UTC)My life is chaos. I think my muse must be some cross dressing punk biker chic to put up with all the crap she has to in my life. ::giggle::
I will purchase you a dozen poodle size muzzles and you may present them to to who ever the guilty party may be.
Oh, and I'll try and call you later. Maybe we should have a elf chat today too? I think that would do us all a world of good.
Love ya.
