Joss Speaks

Joss posted yesterday on Whedonesque:

The Claw of Doom. It's coming. And it can't be stopped. But anyway...

Sorry I don't have a link, and about that whole claw mislead -- the claw isn't actually coming, it's resting peacefully. (The Beak of Waking Up Really Cranky is, however, on the move.)

I just wanted to take this opportunity to say, yes I AM interested in meeting, your web-photos are pretty intoxicating, so E-mail me at VikingPrincess3.org and please make sure absolutely no one finds out about... ah, which site is this? Hmmm. 'Kay. Uh, that was a joke, like the claw thing. This is the "Thank you" message. I got it now.

Thank you. All. First, for all your birthday wishes, which meant a lot to my spectacularly old self. (Special kudos to the person who pointed out that I am now old enough to order a drink twice over, as I have quoted that extensively, and also had more drinks.) I had a very nice birthday and feel terribly well-preserved, 'cept for that damn knee. I saw my friends and destroyed my enemies, so it was a mellow day. And all your wishes were read and appreciated.

But the second "Thank You" is obviously for the screenings, and everyone's involvement. Apparantly there is only One True B!x and we should stop worshipping false B!x's (I had a golden B!x calf that was SO cute, but it's e-bay bound). What an achievement. I wish I could have been at one, but destroying my enemies is time-consuming (and where the @#$% do I hide Goddard's body? He's ENORMOUS!). I got an E-mail from Jessica Neuwirth, who was of course thrilled and grateful for the whole thing. It's by your efforts that my movie has become inexorably linked to such a vital, under-recognized cause, and so y'all should be frantically patting yourselves on the backs. Thank you. It matters. Plus, fun!

I have lurked, but I've restrained myself from yakkin' 'cause I didn't feel right about it while the official, no-really-I-mean-it-this-time first draft of Wonder Woman was unfinished. But I'm posting now. Hmmm, what could that mean?

Well, I gotta go. Or, sit right here but type other stuff. Many many thanks, or as Morena Baccarin would say, "Huh?"

Yours Gratefully, VikingPrincess3.

As someone else commented, here's hoping that Morena's "Huh?" was in response to being cast as Wonder Woman. Check out the VikingPrincess3 link--Gossi made Joss a website. :-)

Them Claws Are Sharp

Lucy discovered the joys of her Blitz Turbo Cat Scratcher Toy yesterday. She had mostly ignored it up until then, but was playing with it on and off all yesterday evening. Thanks to petzipellipingo and fenchurche for suggesting it. My furniture thanks you too.

Speechless

Remember I mentioned a few days ago that my choir, Atlantic Voices: The Newfoundland and Labrador Choir of Ottawa, would be singing at a ceremony at the National War Memorial on Canada Day? Several groups are going to be laying wreaths at the foot of the Memorial during the ceremony and the choir has been given permission to lay our own wreath. As the founder and former president of the choir--and also because my great-uncle fought and died at Beaumont Hamel--I've been chosen by the choir to be the wreath-layer.

National TV. All those cameras focussing on me. God, I hope I don't trip.
