squeee!

I have to admit, I didn't realize that Elizabeth McClellan was *you*, till tithenai posted about the ST5 TOC, with lj names. Lovely to realize that two awesome people are the same awesome person, but wow, I feel silly.

Aw! No worries, back when I was using lj more frequently I wasn't making my government name as public, so it's a perfectly understandable mistake to make. SO MUCH SQUEE!

Congratulations!

I am 35 weeks pregnant, trying to get shit done before FutureSibling arrives, and tired of people exclaiming of the size of my belly.

I am DELIGHTED for you, madame Pope! I can't think of a nicer person to be having such a wonderful year. :)

I thought of you this summer, because I finally had money to buy s00j albums proper and I spent the summer inflicting said albums on my campers and my art assistant--the girls were ESPECIALLY partial to the Wendy Trilogy songs, and I think they left a little more savage for having heard them, which can only improve them. Every time I listened to it, I thought, "Ahhh, the Pope would approve" because you were the first to make me listen to her. :D

That is awesome. I am going to make sure she sees that. <3

:D My art assistant's favorite song was "Alligator in the House". But it became A Thing with us--whenever it came on she would flail dramatically and go "BUT WHY IS THERE AN ALLIGATOR IN THE HOUSE, THIS SONG IS CRAZY!" and the girls would all giggle madly as we "argued" about why there was an alligator in the house, and whether one could expect an alligator to have manners. The entire staff knew about the "alligator song" and would request it when they brought their kids to art, just to see our theatrics. To commemorate this madness, I found a pair of matching silver alligator necklaces. She is completely over the moon. :D

So, because of s00j and because of you (and me!) there are, oh, a couple hundred Girl Scouts (who are fierce creatures to begin with) who are going to grow up thinking about how they can run away to become girl pirates in Neverland. Oh, and whether or not it is acceptable for there to be an alligator in one's house.

That story is the best and you had best believe I'm going to make sure s00j knows it. How fantastic. Next year you ought to teach them the lost girls pirate academy Alma mater. Sisters and shipmates.
