THE FORSAKEN - Hell Is Where You Make It by PhoenixRose

Hey, Whimsy! My week's off to a good start. Had an okay back to work day, even taking back-to-work blues into account. AND I'm staying at my Mum's place for a while, which means... INTERNET ACCESS!!! Woo hoo! No staying late at work!

I checked out the definition of "pulled" in an online British English Slang Dictionary. Hmmm. I am now afraid to look up "coat"!!!

"No power in the 'verse can stop me!"

hmmmmmmm... does it have the definition of 'copped off'? My English friend swears it means 'caught someone's eye' - but I remember it as... well... as having 'pulled' to be exact!

Anyway JohnnyQ- whatever - we are the forsaken and we aim to burn so get your wife on over here!! She can enjoy some debauched nekkid dancing with the rest of us!

Tristan! - there's always s'more s'mores!! Oh - no! Seems this is the last one after all!

*Magda teasingly puts the s'mores in her mouth, bites and lets the runny marshmallow string from the piece still in her fingers*

And thank you too, PDCharles, especially for signing my guestbook! I threw the site together using mozilla composer, so I was very pleased with how nice it looked when I was finished.

EDIT: Okay, Jonny, I understand not getting "pulled", but don't you wear coats in the US?

Er, we do wear coats in the US, especially if the "pulling" has the anticipated outcome. I didn't say we didn't. I just, um, I, eh...I'll be over at Imponderables. No, wait. It's worse over there. The Pub is misspelled. The 'Verse is unhinged. Perhaps I'll just retreat to the Cave...*sighs*

Redlava- Are you sure you weren't at my house with my dogs??? 'Cause that is exactly how they act... Try this treat from Zen puppy called peace. It's an herbal tranquilizer( not dangerous or anything) calms them down nicely:)

mornin' Forsaken.

Been a bit quiet on this front recently. I guess all the activity in the Imponderables is to blame.

MSG - the Zen Puppy treat sounds great, and if my dogs were actually hyper, I might even try them. I wonder what they taste like though.....oh, I actually typed that. Whoops. :)

SS - that is a cute shot of the dog.

MsG, great pics of PR, Magda, and you. They fit my image of the three of you.

Tristan, great pic of your Forsaken Pub. I noticed the red walls and a little gold in the background. Is this the beginning of the Inara shuttle motif?

Hey, MrT, morning. Great nutritious breakfast you have there. I'm just winding down. It's around 3:30 AM here in Scottsdale, Arizona, so I'm thinking about hitting my bed, so that I can get a few hours of sleep before the sun comes up.

Marshmallows are a close second to my favourite breakfast - bitter chocolate....

Well, good night to you VerseExploreer, sleep well and don't let the noise of burning logs on the pyre and the occasional blood sacrifice disturb you (we will try to muffle the screaming!

)

Somehitng that happened this morning seems appropriate for this thead - I have just received a package from CafePress... haveing orderd a (definitely not

) FF-inspired t-shirt I have been eagerly awaiting it for a couple of weeks (slow post to the uk!). This morning my package arrived and keenly I slit the bag open, thinking as I did so that the bag felt a bit heavy for a single t-shirt...

inside was an order for one John Carlos in OH (Ohio?), but you konw how it is when you get someone else's order, you really want something you can keep...

not this time - one t-shirt with a picture and slogan from Martin Luther King on it (just not my thing) and a second t-shirt (which is why I mention it here amongst the Foresaken) reading, in large letters, 'Jesus is the Way'... for an atheist this is the ultimate in irony, not only could I not wear it, but I can't even believe it!

It has got me wondering what John Carlos will make of his Firefly shirt... perhaps this could be used as a new marketing strategy!?

Magda, thanks for taking over the dancing while I sleep.

MrT, way too funny. I do think it's a great guerilla marketing idea to spread the word about Firefly. Although, right now it sounds like they have a Bible pusher in the mail department right now. What a way to start the day.

Magda, you did well with the teasing...I still have visions of rivulets in my mind.
Oh, and a sleeping beast has been awakened with this camera thing....

MRT, the drink of choice...Captain Morgan's spiced rum! It was the inspiration for the rest of the photos, too.
