turpsWe've been to our niece's birthday party today. There was bouncy castle, party food, and many young children, who, at random times started shrieking at a pitch where I was worried for any nearby glass. We came home with a box of left over party food, so score for that.
Last night Scouts started up again, and it was also the Big Brother finale. Out of the 5 people left I would have been happy for 4 of them to win, so things got a little tense when the one I didn't want to win stayed in until third place, which I'm still boggled about, because seriously British public, what were you thinking?
Oh man. The art claims for![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
rpf_big_bang have just gone up and my story was claimed within minutes. I wasn't expecting that at all.

Date: 2009-09-06 11:47 am (UTC)About seven or so years ago, my family and I went out to California for an Anniversary party for my grandparents. There was a bouncy castle. My dad spent about as much time in that thing as I did. And in related bouncy castle news - there were two HUGE ones set up in the field outside St. Mungo's yesterday [on the Uni's grounds]. Bouncy castles for everyone! *laughs*
Not awesome, really. Just honest. ♥

Date: 2009-09-05 09:01 pm (UTC)I was joking, but still, you should have more faith in yourself. :)

Date: 2009-09-05 06:55 pm (UTC)Well, of course it was! I suspect you are going to be the only one surprised, dude. ♥
I can't wait to read it and see the art you get! (Especially read it. Whee!)

40 minutesrealllly late to the party /o\ You get another unsurprised face from me! Happily I got somethin with zombies in the end though, so my sadness is eased : Dno subject
Date: 2009-09-06 09:02 am (UTC)I was amazed at how fast stories were being claimed. People must have been sitting waiting for the posts to go up.

Date: 2009-09-06 12:07 pm (UTC)Aaand, usually those people would have included me. Whoops, claiming-ninja fail /o\

Date: 2009-09-06 11:51 am (UTC)ZOMBIES?? OH BOY!!!
[I should note here that the oh boy is not for the zombies themselves, which actually sketch me out, but for the inevitable awesomeness that will come from YOU doing zombie-related art. :) I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE IT!!! *bounces*]

OH MAN, I hear you with the figure drawing thing - I keep thinking taking some life drawing classes would be helpful - BUT I also disagree a bit. Your Lyn-Z was most keen.
...purposely mangled limbs are a nice get-out clause.
AHAHA! I've never thought of it that way, but you're right. Just think about the blood splatter opportunities!
ALSO I LIKE ZOMBIES.
I HAD NOTICED THAT ABOUT YOU.
I am conflicted about the zombie thing. On one hand - I love horror movies, which often have zombies. But my worst nightmares are zombie-laden. *hands*
And now I want to draw zombies. Prolly isn't the wisest of things to do at work...
(Yes, this --> ♥)
