More Moth loveliness
Me: *failing to repair my PC*
Moth: *appears and makes everything better*
Me: How is it you are so good at computers and I'm not?
Moth: I'm a digital native. You're a digital immigrant. You're standing at the border with your little suitcase and they're not letting you in ( Read more... ) -

Moth:*feeling anti-social* "I'm like the sinking door in Titanic: 'One person only! Don't get any big ideas.'"

Food
Moth this morning: "I'll be home by half two and I expect a full, perfect meal on the table when I arrive. ... I'm joking. Please don't cook." -

I'm in Southern Germany with Moth exploring Roman ruins we're both really food of. Amphitheatres, basilicae, thermae and so on. She's as happy to see them I am, but yesterday we were goofing around while looking at what was apparently the biggest bath North of the Alps at the time and she suddenly goes: "Yeah, the Romans were quite good at building ( Read more... ) -

Moth: That's because you're klutzy and clumsy.
Me: *researches 'klutzy', learns that it is related to the German word "Klotz" (lump, chunk, ball)* HEYYYY!!! -
Pratchett Romance

Moth: "How many fiddle players are there in the band?' - 'I think there are nine violinists in the orchestra."
Me (after a moment's consideration): Masquerade.

Me: There were two options.
Moth: What ( Read more... ) -
Scotland
I started listing the things I wanna see if we go to Scotland in the holidays about two hours ago. I suppose I could think of more, but so far these are the only two items I have been able to come up with:

- see Puffins.
Keeping my expectations simple, I suppose. -

I identify so much with that single flower... it's ridiculous.
