16:12 Mango-chan Oh snap

16:12 Mango-chan President of Neopets was/is a scientologist

16:12 AMD what

16:13 Mango-chan this is technically old news

16:13 starcat|ss2 good god

16:13 starcat|ss2 I'd never heard that

16:13 Mango-chan

16:13 starcat|ss2 That's vaguely creepy

16:14 AMD WTF X

16:20 Michael Dembeck :3

16:20 Michael Dembeck kekekekekkekekek

16:20 Michael Dembeck you're welcome adam. X3

16:24 Bucket I feel unclean

16:29 Bucket I wonder if my old friend is reading this does he feel unclean as well?

16:50 starcat|ss2 oh gawd blondies are so good @_@

16:50 starcat|ss2 mmmmmmmm.

16:50 Bucket What's in the ones you're eating?

16:50 starcat|ss2 my couscous turned out a bit dry, though, I let it boil a bit too long accidentally

16:51 starcat|ss2 and it'd need more spice next time, the flavor's not too strong

16:51 starcat|ss2 chocolate chips and walnuts

16:51 starcat|ss2 Simple and ohmygod so delicious.

16:51 Bucket oooh

16:51 starcat|ss2 One bowl, too.

16:51 Bucket I got me a packet of just add water muffin mix

16:51 Bucket but I need to devote this evening to the bloomers

16:51 starcat|ss2 They're pretty rich, too, so I don't feel bad about only having one or two

16:52 starcat|ss2 (because that's all I can handle at once)

16:52 Bucket heh

16:52 Bucket I baked from scratch last weekend. The cocoa scones from Kitchen Princess 4.

16:53 Babelglyph :O

16:54 Babelglyph well, if you want to bake from scratch REALLY easily, these blondies are fantastic

16:54 starcat|ss2 http://smittenkitchen.com/2006/11/blondies-for-a-blondie/

16:54 Mango-chan hmmmms

16:54 starcat|ss2 hmmms?

16:54 Mango-chan I have been inspired to go back to trying pixel comics

16:54 starcat|ss2 :D

16:54 Bucket I hope they taste as delicious as they look!

16:54 starcat|ss2 Oh, Mango

16:55 Bucket Inspired huh?

16:55 Mango-chan yes?

16:55 starcat|ss2 Do you know how many pags 10,000 words would be

16:55 starcat|ss2 *pages

16:55 Mango-chan hm

16:55 Mango-chan I will estimate one moment

16:55 starcat|ss2 kk

16:55 Bucket You're gonna do NaNoWriMo?

16:55 Babelglyph No, not exactly

16:55 Fei Lin Depends on font, size, spacing and dialog, if you're on about computer pages.

16:56 Fei Lin Depends on font, size, spacing and dialogue, on a computer.

16:56 Babelglyph well

16:56 Babelglyph yeah.

16:56 Mango-chan for font 12 doc etc

16:56 Babelglyph Which is why I'm going for words rather than pages

16:56 Babelglyph I want to write a short story.

16:57 Fei Lin Ah, so that;s why I didn't see it...*is making way too many mistakes around here already*

16:57 Babelglyph ?

16:57 Babelglyph It's not a mistake.

16:57 Babelglyph Don't worry about it

16:57 Babelglyph Really ^_^

16:57 Babelglyph But see, my dad wrote his first book in a similar situation as I am in now

16:57 Babelglyph I've got knitting to work on, too, so I'm only going for a short story.

16:58 Babelglyph I've got a pretty good idea though.

16:58 Babelglyph I don't think it'll turn out fantastic but it should be at least a mildly-interesting read.

16:59 Mango-chan Estimate 16 to 17 pages depending on how much conversational dialogue you have.

16:59 Babelglyph Perfect.

16:59 Babelglyph Thank you. ^_^

16:59 Mango-chan no problem! :D

17:00 Mango-chan I got about 17 pages with 10,000 words and mostly description

17:00 Mango-chan well

17:00 Mango-chan 16 and a paragraph

17:00 Mango-chan ok brb

17:02 Babelglyph close enough

17:02 Babelglyph anything more than a few lines counts as a page

17:02 Babelglyph I was hoping it'd be around 20

17:04 Babelglyph hehe, maybe if this turns out decent I'll see about submitting it to an anthology

17:04 * Babelglyph is totally using Mimi Hanyu as her pen name

17:04 Babelglyph ROFL.

17:04 Babelglyph Google for Mimi Hanyu returns not a Witches 5 thing

17:04 Babelglyph but a profile of mine on a website

17:05 Babelglyph Awwww, and on the second page there's starcat's wikiiii

17:05 * Babelglyph squeals

17:05 Babelglyph Okay enough of that

20:13 Mango-chan OMG Marianne is AMAZING

21:12 Babelglyph Marianne?

21:12 Babelglyph Oh

21:12 Babelglyph the doll?

21:13 Mango-chan yes

21:13 Babelglyph hehe :D

21:17 Babelglyph I think she's gorgeous. <3

21:18 Babelglyph yay knitting <3

21:18 Babelglyph I can't wait until my armwarmer is done so I can start on my wings <3

21:19 Mango-chan oooh

21:20 Mango-chan you can knit wings?

21:20 Babelglyph  

http://knitty.com/ISSUEsummer06/PATTallete.html

21:23 Babelglyph ^_^

21:23 Babelglyph They're little, but I think they'll use up the rest of my purple yarn nicely <3

21:28 Babelglyph I want to make a set of these in orange and green

21:28 Babelglyph (armwarmers)

21:28 Babelglyph so they're like pumpkins~

21:43 Mango-chan those are so cute!

21:43 Babelglyph Have you seen the armwarmer pattern I'm using?

21:44 Mango-chan i haven't

21:44 Babelglyph  

http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=13…

21:44 Mango-chan oooh

21:44 Mango-chan so when you knit stuff you don't knit squares

21:45 Mango-chan you knit it into the pattern?

21:45 Babelglyph o_O

21:45 Mango-chan I'm thinking sewing

21:45 Mango-chan with bolts

21:45 Mango-chan and stuff

21:45 Babelglyph O_o

21:45 Babelglyph OH

21:45 Babelglyph Oh oh oh I get it

21:45 Babelglyph Like

21:46 Babelglyph knitting squares and using it like fabric?

21:46 Mango-chan yes

21:46 Babelglyph No, you make the shapes

21:46 Babelglyph Sometimes you sew things together

21:46 Babelglyph But I don't

21:46 Mango-chan aaah

21:46 Babelglyph er

21:46 Mango-chan that's neat!

21:46 Babelglyph Not here

21:46 Babelglyph This is circular knitting so you knit tubes

21:47 Mango-chan *nod*

21:47 Babelglyph there are tons of different ways to make stuff shaped differently :3

21:48 Babelglyph Sweaters are usually more than one part

21:48 Babelglyph knitted separately and sewn together

21:48 Mango-chan *nod*

21:49 Babelglyph but I'm going to stick to things knitted in one piece for now <_<;

21:49 Mango-chan aaah. Sounds good!

21:49 Babelglyph yup!

21:49 Babelglyph Oh

21:49 Babelglyph Those wings

21:50 Mango-chan I'm all sad I found out today that I have a spot in the back of my mouth that could turn to a cavity.

21:50 Babelglyph you knit one at a time, then add on more to make the bar at the top!

21:50 Babelglyph D: aww.

21:50 Mango-chan the wings!

21:50 Babelglyph Dentist visit?

21:50 Mango-chan they're so pretty

21:50 Mango-chan yeah

21:50 Babelglyph well

21:50 Babelglyph I don't know if it'll actually help you but that Sensodyne Pronamel toothpaste has really really worked for me

21:50 Mango-chan they just said to keep my mouth clean and that it wasn't a problem right now.

21:50 Mango-chan hmmm

21:50 Babelglyph helps to rebuild enamel

21:50 Mango-chan ooo

21:51 Mango-chan I will watch out for it

21:51 Babelglyph :D
