I feel dissipated, and cheerless. Nor cardamom, nor budgie-nibbles, nor even this erudite discussion of classical Rome can replenish my vim.
I put out this general plea for help with my depleted mojo.

Then we came home, stopping on the way for ice cream (Mmmm... Boysenberry...) and at the Gympie Gold Mining Museum where we ate our lunch.
I did manage to find a few small specks of gold.
I should have taken a camera to photograph the magnificent Jacarandas outside the museum, but alas, I always forget to take one on these trips.
Thank you for sharing the story, and congratulations on your performance. How big is a small speck? I am a Child of Mammon; I love gold.

You will find that Moonie is a special kind of tiny. :smallbiggrin:
EVERYTHING is an example of having a gay old time.:smallbiggrin:
Most multilingual (and even omnilingual yay me huzzah ignorance of various language and cultural traditions!) forget how to english. Its a slly language. Why I love it so much. :smallamused:
Making idiotic and obscure references is pretty much the only reason I ever consider being a teacher. And also, teaching history is epicsauce and I can try to "make it fuuun" and naive 20-year old teacher feels!! :smalltongue:
Moonie y u noes latin.:smallannoyed::smallwink:
Wow, a play? With mythological and epic characters? Tour achool, it sends me muy mixed messages.
HIDEIN DA BOX!
Indeed. To her credit, she did mentions the Philia-love thing, but then was all like 'but more likely, blahblahblah filly'
Yes. Yes I am. <grumbles>
Woo! I'm totally okay with that!
I only speak English sillyhead.
I don't really know Latin. I just pick up a lot of it, stuff.
I don't even, Mutant, what. Also, what the hell happens to your spelling every night?
I'm too sexy for my box. :smallamused:

Well, it got popped back into the socket.
That is a nice dictionary. What does the writing on the front say?
"The something something Dictionary of the English Language?"
Personally, I love reference books. I am particularly fond of our dictionary.
It's an old World Book one from the seventies published in two volumes slightly smaller than that with all sorts of interesting things in the front of A-K.
And gilt edges! I just love gilt edges!

Thanks.
And by small speck, I mean small speck.
How to put this in words... You know sand? About the size of grains of sand.
After all... There is still gold in Gympie, but not at the surface. They mined all that out decades ago. The gold that is left isn't profitable to extract at this time.

General warning of possible ponies through links.
This calls for the big guns. Hugs and adorable artwork, maybe something suitably poetic!
Unfortunately, none of my own artwork because none of mine is suitable.
Cue the clarinets.
Sometimes, I forget to feel jaded, despite what's happened in my life. And I think, that's because you bring such a beautiful light to the world.
So don't cry Kneenibble, because we'll always be here for you and we're not going anywhere. To shelter you from the rain, and if need be, to carry you across the desert.
And we'll sit together in the warmth and relax with some tea, or maybe coffee.
Because you'll always be our friend despite what happens. *hugs*
I spent too much time on that. But it was worth it.
And maybe that song wasn't the best choice...

Forgive me if that was all totally incorrect. I'm still pretty bad with complex sentences.
Also, I hope that a short thing is okay with the rule about other languages, I'll provide what I was attempting to say if need be. :smallfrown:

And now that I know what it says, it's perfectly legible.
Indeed. It's very useful.
And how would you know what gilt edges taste like? Have you been eating them?
They aren't exactly good for you.
Anyway... Unfortunately, it only has the gilt edges on the top of the pages, which is the part you see before taking it off the shelf. But I don't mind.
Maybe I should get pictures of them... But I don't have a camera on me...

That should be ok, since it's clearly for a joke in this situation.

Really, don't worry about it. I enjoyed looking back through those images. And I thought you'd enjoy them as well. Several have been produced by extremely talented artists and they evoke such emotions. I am particularly fond of the one featuring the fields of tea.
And the song is one we did in High School. Must be four or five years ago now. I've always been fond of it. My instrumental music teacher throughout High School always chose such wonderful songs.
For once, it was one with an interesting part for Tenor Sax. Usually they're so boring and repetitive.
Hmm... I have that symphony on CD... I should perhaps listen to it.
As for my gold specks? I returned them to the waters such that others may have the joy of finding them.

I like the tea field as well, and the fluid texture of that pony's hair. I wish to visit a tea farm one day, for I hear the emerald green of its vistas is uniquely intense. I have little to offer you in return: there were no ponies in my own favourites accompted long ago; but here, at least, is how I felt after your message.
Unfortunately, instead of going to bed afterwards I decided to turn off all the lights and stay up playing Amnesia: The Dark Descent for a while. Let's just say my real-life sanity metre dropped to about "..." It is not the correct game for somebody who lives alone in a creaky old house :smalleek:

You should listen to it: it's a lovely work. The concert I saw in March had dramatic entreludes between Dvorak [with a campy accent] & characters in his life, and a cinematic preamble detailing Dvorak's journey around America and the influences that went into his composition. Very interesting evening.
You are not afflicted with greed as I am. I would have hoarded the specks and looked for more like a common dwarf.

The measure of Sheep's adorability is not his prettiness: but his inflammably hyperactive & endearingly phrenetic prose.
Your own prettiness, on the other hand, is a quantifiable component to your adorability.
