'Sparkling', huh? This is one of those times when your 'there was definitely wine' icon would be so, so appropriate.

Hey, I have a question for you: If you closed your eyes and imagined that someone was knitting you a scarf... What kind/colour of scarf would you be wanting?

[identity profile] ronsard.livejournal.com 2007-02-09 08:57 pm (UTC)(link)
...what? What?

Um, dark grey, I suppose. But also, omgwhat?

And have you read any Robertson Davies?

[identity profile] ronsard.livejournal.com 2007-02-09 09:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Sadly, no. Due to my skewed and traumatizing education, Canadian literature is strictly a post-high school experience for me -- relatively new.

I am still baffled by this line of cryptic questions.

Well, I'm quite mysterious in my ways.

Hmmmm... I seem to have used my last skein of nice dark grey on my daughter's scarf. How does grey/brown stripes sound?

Unless I am mistaken and you're asking these subtle questions for the purpose of a psyche study, I think you could knit a ten-yard neon green scarf with hot pink tassels and it'd still be the most awesome thing in the world.

Plys, grey/brown makes me think of your LJ background. Quite lovely.

Also, you might be interested in knowing that I googled 'Davies + knitting' and came up with 'death by knitting needles' :|

[identity profile] beachlass.livejournal.com 2007-02-09 09:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Any rumours that I killed Roberston Davies with a set of knitting needles are lies. I have never killed anyone with my needles. Much.

Grey/Brown scarf it is. Plus, I have a copy of The Cunning Man I'm going to send you. I'd say it's one of my favorite Davies novels, but it's probably closer to the truth to say I love them all.

i'm so sure you are both legendary and alluring, and we know without a doubt that you are both arty and helpful.

beautiful is a given :)

Actually, helpful is the one that made me laugh... you should hear the intonation my friends give that word sometimes.

Apparently I am:
Entertaining, Special, Heavenly, Adaptable, Luscious and Adventurous.
All in all, that's a pretty lovely way to put it.

And you, in all of your sparkling helpfullness really are truly beautiful.

You are indeed all those things. Do you have time tomorrow to go over the settlement forms on the phone?

[identity profile] eshala.livejournal.com 2007-02-10 07:28 am (UTC)(link)
Absolutely - but not too early, since I just worked 34 hours within 48... and then slept for two hours, and went out and now it is 2:30 am, and I am tipsy... (but didn't do anything... um... untoward...)
*sighs*

Good for you. And use can use your knitted boundaries to tie him to the bedpost when you don't need to keep stepping back.

I'll call you in the afternoon.

*loves*

I may need to get more boundaries in the meantime.

This afternoon it is - I am awake now, and have already had two conversations with my mom. All I need to do is have a bit more coffee, brave the outside world in a dog-walking kinda way, and my thoughts can be all settlement, all the time.

*loves you so much*

I have to go out with Ewan to a Cubs thing for a bit (skating *shudder*).

And did you notice that someone earlier in the thread was foolish enough to say she would even love a neon green scarf with pink tassels?

[identity profile] eshala.livejournal.com 2007-02-10 11:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Ooh! Oooh!

*jumps up and down, and goes to find caution tape to wrap around Mai *

Clearly the poor girl has no idea that in addition to being highly open to suggestion, you actually HAVE neon green and hot pink yarn in your stash.
