Someone told me that I had to show a picture of the Peter and Paul one to my sisters and tell them I have a donor willing to pay for one for the monastery :|

Since we can post costumes...this is a (huge) picture of me dressed up as one of my friends from the monastery...back when she still wore a habit and was in her novitiate :)

Sounds like you had some good fun AnneLine!

I'm munching some white cheddar popcorn (store-bought, Sarah and I were being lazy) and I have some diet coke. :)

True story.... a long time ago, when it was the fashion.. I got my hair afro-ed. Seriously. Looked kind of like this:

Horrible thought! I sure didn't look like AnneLine. I looked really Latina... and I looked tough. My own mother didn't recognize me when I got home from the beauty shop!

One of the Sisters at the community I was discerning with thought the DMV picture looked so funny, she asked to borrow my ID to show to the other sisters!

She told me later that she told them, 'hey, look at this picture of someone who wants to join our community!. The others laughed and said she looked TOO TOUGH to make it in their community! They couldn't believe it when she told them it was ME!!!!

(Fortunately the thing grew out....)

Yeah, I did have a good time. There are kids who come every year, and one cute family taht always tell me how much they like my zombie people!!! :)

I didn't get the pie made tonight... think that will be for Saturday now... just TOO tired.. and have a DANGED APPOINTMENT early tomorrow morning..... (grumble grumble...)

Time to do some dishes, and then pray evening prayer... and then make like a zombie and have some eternal rest (or maybe not quite eternal... but a few hours more than usual...

Will check back a bit later to see if anyone is still here....

Did you and your sister have a good time ARfink?

Ah..... diet coke!

I was looking up the Slenderman urban legend (of which's earliest form dated back to the 16th century) and I read that not only does the Slenderman look like a Silence, he can also cause memory loss.


That pretty much ruined the Silence for me :|

Slenderman was invented a few years ago on Something Awful forums.

Perhaps what I should have said was that Slenderman could have been inspired by a German folklore legend that was invented in the 16th century called [i]The Tall Man[/i].

Still, the Silence is a complete rip-off of an urban legend <_<

Lol, mkay.

In reality, it's almost impossible to find a story that is completely original. Everything is heavily influenced by everything else.
