I still have not gotten to the library; I think I shall go later this week. Perhaps on... Thursday?... since that is the day governed by Thelxiepeia, even if you don't call it by her name, here. Molpe, as the patroness of art, would be fortuitous as well; but Thelxiepeia is more aligned with learning, which is my ultimate goal.
It occurred to me, though- for I did pass by the building- that I shall have no idea where to start.
So, good City-- what do you recommend as reading material for a fool like me? [Small, good-natured laugh.] And if anyone would care to join me, I'd be glad for the company. If Thelxday isn't-- Thursday-- isn't convenient for you, I don't mind changing the date, either.
In other news, it appears I may be acquiring a pet in the near future, provided none of my roommates object to my keeping one of Suresh's ducklings. I have not thought of a suitable name for it. I named Oreb, the night-chough who took it upon himself to move in with me, after a raven in the Writings; but offhand I cannot think of any places where ducks are mentioned...
I do hope that the recent curses have not left anyone too distressed. I myself have been spared thus far, thank the gods; but for those who have not, you are in my thoughts. If anyone wants a sympathetic ear, albeit an easily confused one, do let me know.

[ooc: Links for reference only of course ♥ And if any chars in Building 2, #214-215 are allergic to ducks or something feel free to tell him no. XD The only reason he doesn't tealdeerfully address each of you individually is that I have a tough time keeping up with who-all lives there. ^^;]

Date: 2008-09-02 10:18 pm (UTC)A-hah.. and a hot dog is...? I'm sure it can't be what it sounds like.
[Voice]
Date: 2008-09-02 10:22 pm (UTC)... right, sorry. I should have explained that first. It's a kind of food from Earth-- well, my version of it anyway; I can't speak for any others. It's a cylinder of meat, usually pork or beef but never actually dogs, cooked on a grill and then put in between a bun. ... and apparently, it's harder than I thought it would be to explain.

Date: 2008-09-02 10:33 pm (UTC)Like a sausage? I'm... glad it's not actually dog meat. I must admit that was my first assumption.

Date: 2008-09-02 11:09 pm (UTC)Like a sausage, yes. The name is very misleading.
[Voice]
Date: 2008-09-03 12:25 am (UTC)So people in your whorl have contests to see how many sausages they can eat? That seems... wasteful. And probably not very healthy; most sausages are so fatty... Hmn.
