Seen in amyjessica's journal, while I was figuring out who she was. Hi!

Hi! Hope you don't mind, I've been doing the same to you.

I know you said I didn't need to friend you to read the Viking story, but would you mind if I did? You referred to it as drivel, but I find your particular brand of sarcasm amusing in the extreme. =D

Oh, by all means, feel free, and you're welcome. :)

I was just saying, you don't have to read the rest of it if you don't want. But if you do, so much the better! :)

Thanks, you're too kind! I promise I won't mess up the place or leave dirty dishes in the sink. ;-)

Oh good. That would be a change from the norm. All these friends, leaving muddy footprints and dirty coffee cups all over my living room... I'm starting to think of paring down my friends' list just to save on tidying-up. But you-- you'll be different. I know it.
^.^

I remember Creek Night! But I liked screaming out the window better. I didn't remember that was called the Primal Scream.

You've killed a wild animal? When and what?

And you've NEVER had a broken bone??? I think you've mentioned this to me before, but it's still astounding.

Who was it, with the LJ? Ursula?

I thought it was called that. I think I missed it every year. But it was still there.

No, never broken a bone.

Er, the animal was a fish. And I wasn't the only one who participated. It was more that I helped the person teaching me to kill it. I never did one on my own.
I have also participated in butchering a deer, but I didn't fire the shot that killed it. I did do some of the cutting and much of the hauling, and yes, venison carry all their fat subcutaneously so it takes a very long time for the carcass to cool if you don't skin it. Weird and eerie.

No, it wasn't Ursula, but I feel I shouldn't name names. You never knew this person.
