[16:36] <Wrengl> and this time is for real and final
[16:36] <KK> Flight back was fine.  House looks like a bomb went off, but great progress.

[16:37] <TranshaLass> Hi, Tika & Bynw
[16:37] <Mistyck> hi Tika
[16:37] <KK> Replacing floors in two guest bedrooms; they were a good 4 inches off, from settling at that end of the house.
[16:37] <Kiri`> sounds like they were good for tap dance practice.
[16:38] <KK> This afternoon, I swept up some of the debris from my new sewing room and Scott's office.
[16:38] * kirienne has joined #Deryni_Destinations
[16:38] <DeryniBot> Hail and Well met kirienne
[16:38] <Mistyck> hi kirienne
[16:38] <Mak> Hi, kirienne
[16:38] <Wrengl> hello kirrienne
[16:38] <TranshaLass> Hi, kirienne
[16:38] <kirienne> hello everyone
[16:38] <KK> Of course, everything had to come out of those rooms, starting with all the furniture and including the old carpets--and everything from both closets.
[16:38] <KK> What a mess!
[16:38] <Archmage> Hiya Kirienne
[16:39] <RainbowDragon> Hi, kirienne
[16:39] <KK> Vinedea, I don't recognize your handle.  Who are you really?  :-)
[16:39] * Vinedea = Tika
[16:39] <Vinedea> we're still in our Sunday game in #Teara_Adan
[16:39] <KK> Aha.  New name?
[16:39] * kirienne waves excitedly at everyone, happy to see her friends
[16:39] <Vinedea> Player Character name
[16:39] <KK> Ah, gaming name.
[16:39] <Vinedea> yep yep
[16:39] <Kiri`> hi kirienne!
[16:40] <Mistyck> bynw gets to stay himself....no fair
[16:40] <KK> Mistyck, how is our newest Deryni fan coming along in DR?
[16:40] <KK> Ryan is one cool kid!
[16:40] <Mistyck> he's on chapter 3 and has taken it with him to New Mexico...he said he was going to read some on the drive there
[16:40] <Mistyck> thanks!
[16:40] <KK> Ah, a noble occupation!
[16:41] <Mistyck> yep...also saves bugging his dad about things
[16:41] <kirienne> LOL
[16:41] <KK> How long is he gone for?
[16:41] <TranshaLass> I wish I could read in a moving car, no fair
[16:41] <Mistyck> 3 weeks
[16:41] * Andy-in_absentia split himself . . .
[16:41] <KK> Back just in time for start of school, then.
[16:41] <Mistyck> yes
[16:41] <Mistyck> school starts on the 18th
[16:41] <Archmage> I love reading in the car...
[16:42] <KK> Me too.
[16:42] <Archmage> I can even do it while driving... but I dun recommend that on the highway...
[16:42] <Wrengl> i cannot read in a car
[16:42] <Archmage> or in a city...
[16:42] <Kiri`> i can't..   
[16:42] <Wrengl> i can in a bus or train or plane but not a car
[16:42] * Archmage steers with his knees.
[16:42] <Vinedea> or in the country for that matter, Archmage
[16:42] <kirienne> I can read in the car, but since I am usually the driver going places, I rarely get to
[16:42] <Archmage> LOL Tika
[16:42] <Mistyck> last year he read 2 R.L. Stine books on the trip
[16:43] <TranshaLass> I'm the same way, wrengl, cars move a little differently
[16:43] <KK> Nope, wish I could, though.  Thursday I have to drive over to Galway to meet Ann and Martine and their friend.  They're riding over there; probably pretty sore about now.
[16:43] <Kiri`> brb  have to lay on the floor for a bit
[16:43] <Wrengl> probably so
[16:43] <Mistyck> cool, KK!   
[16:44] <Mistyck> and Shiral is getting there in Sept, right?
[16:44] <KK> Yep--and maybe Olympia as well.
[16:44] <Mistyck> cool!
[16:44] <Mistyck> lots of company for you this summer!
[16:44] <Kiri`> wow  visitors all over the place =)
[16:45] <kirienne> that is really great that they get to
[16:45] <KK> Yep.  And hopefully this week, I'll get started on the new book.
[16:45] <Mistyck> now, that's what we always like to hear
[16:45] <RainbowDragon> CM2?
[16:45] <kirienne> woooo, hooo
[16:45] <Mak> Yes, indeed!
[16:45] <RainbowDragon> That sounds very hopeful
[16:45] <KK> Yep, Dragon.
[16:45] <Wrengl> yipee
[16:45] <TranshaLass> Great!
[16:46] <Mistyck> ooh, we get to learn about Morgan's birth and childhood

[16:51] <TranshaLass> I'll be fine with my current computer for a while, my brother custom-built it
[16:51] <Mistyck> I can see how that was, Nancy
[16:51] <Vinedea> Olympia, that's because it is chock full of useful info!
[16:51] <Mistyck> yep
[16:51] <KK> Must look through it; it surfaced yesterday, I think, but I'm still digging my desk out.
[16:52] <Olympia> Definitely! just one of those books everyone should have!
[16:52] <Mistyck> hehehe
[16:52] <RainbowDragon> Susie and Joe's book?
[16:52] <kirienne> what is the name of the book?
[16:52] <Vinedea> lemme find the URL...
[16:52] <Mistyck> GG press is the publisher right?
[16:52] <Vinedea> no, expeditious retreat
[16:52] <Olympia> Yes I think so.   
[16:52] <Mistyck> aah...ok
[16:52] <RainbowDragon> who are susie and joe?
[16:52] <Olympia> By the way, our fledgling gamer, Katherine, was BRILLIANT in the Deryni games that Ann ran at Gencon.
[16:52] <Mistyck> yep
[16:53] <Mistyck> didn't flame everyone this time
[16:53] <kirienne> did you play more villians KK?
[16:53] <jp> did i join this chat at a confusing moment?
[16:53] <Olympia> Nope she didn't <grin>
[16:53] <Mistyck> Ryan loved the "goat" game
[16:53] <Olympia> And Ryan was GREAT!
[16:53] <kirienne> LOL
[16:53] <Mistyck> thanks, Nancy
[16:53] <Olympia> He is SO cute! (don't tell him or he'll get all embarrassed!)
[16:53] <Mistyck> Ryan played a 12-yr-old juggler
[16:53] <KK> I actually chose to play a human.
[16:53] <Mistyck> thanks...nah, he's not here
[16:54] <Archmage> lol KK
[16:54] <jp> Ghost-games, not goat game
[16:54] <Mistyck> he went to NM with his dad today
[16:54] * Vinedea Quit (User has been mind-ripped)
[16:54] <Mistyck> no, JP...this was Ghost Games goat game
[16:54] <Olympia> I'm glad I knocked down the age of that character from 31 to 13 <grin>
[16:54] <kirienne> poor Tika
[16:54] <Mistyck> say that 10 times fast!
[16:54] <Mistyck> yep
[16:54] <Wrengl> lol
[16:54] * Kendall has left #Deryni_Destinations
[16:54] <Olympia> I think we need to run the goat game at Darkover
[16:54] <Mistyck> yes!
[16:54] <Mistyck> can I still play...even with "player knowledge"?
[16:54] <KK> Yes!  It was a fun one!
[16:55] <Olympia> Hm, I think we will also run the 4 hr serious one
[16:55] <Mistyck> I think I did a good job keeping my player knowledge out of the 4 hour game
[16:55] <KK> Yes you did.
[16:55] * jp i guessed that, but couldn't resist the play on words
[16:55] <Andy-in_absentia> There's a goat game??
[16:55] <Olympia> We had one that didn't get run at Gencon
[16:55] <Mistyck> yep!
[16:55] <Olympia> Yep, a Goat Game <grin>
[16:55] <Mistyck> now, you have to come to Darkover, Andy
[16:55] <Olympia> Not everything in the Eleven Kingdoms is about the wealthy <grin>
[16:55] <Mistyck> lots of goats in the game
[16:55] <KK> We ran the goat game twice....
[16:56] <Mistyck> yep
[16:56] <Olympia> Oh, I finally caught up with the New Mexico corsetier and bought TWO corsets at costume College!
[16:56] <Mistyck> cool!
[16:56] <KK> The Lady Fafny goes to judge the goats at the local fair, y'see....  :-)
[16:56] <Wrengl> neat olympia
[16:56] <Mistyck> what part of NM?
[16:56] <KK> You bought two <more> corsets?
[16:57] <Olympia> Yep, one is dark blue leather trimmed in black leather   the company name is X-centricities. Yep - that black suede thing is (technically) a bodice
[16:57] <Olympia> Poor Lady Fafny...
[16:57] <jp> Has this goat game got anything to do with the goats we were discussing about five/six weeks ago?
[16:57] <Olympia> too much embroidery...
[16:57] <TranshaLass> You're brave, Olympia, period costumes can be uncomfortable
[16:57] * kirienne thinks that Nancy must like not being able to breathe, getting corsetts
[16:57] <Olympia> it can just ruin a girl's eyes...
[16:57] <Mistyck> not really, JP...but it did get pretty funny!
[16:57] <Mistyck> especially towards the end
[16:57] <Olympia> Ah no, Transha, my dear, not when they are fit properly   (unlike skinny Keira in PotC)
[16:58] <KK> It was a fun premise.
[16:58] <TranshaLass> I made a medieval Scottish costume for Halloween last year, nearly died of heat in Oct. from all the layers
[16:58] <Olympia> I LOVE corsets! my back feel soooo much better
[16:58] <Olympia> keeps me from slouching
[16:58] <kirienne> oh
[16:58] <jp>
[16:58] <Archmage> lol TranshaLass
[16:58] <Olympia> and compresses all that extra um... um... that stuff... that I wish would go away NOW
[16:59] <kirienne> LOL
[16:59] <Mistyck> lol
[16:59] <Olympia> It's very intimidating rooming with Katherine and Ann - THIN people
