You should get a break during your longer shifts, will that help with the anxiety?

Yeah I'm going to ask about em on firday

Breaks are essential for mentally decompressing before having to deal with more shit.

I definitely agree with that, Queen!

I can always take a loo break on shorter shifts I can eke that out to 5 minutes if im anxious

Loving your avatar Estriel.

thanks!

Good afternoon, my lovelies.

Hey Queenie. Literally everytime I call you Queenie I imagine some horrible punishment that LKH's Queen Andais would give if someone addressed her as 'Queenie'. O_O;;

Kit, she'd call forth her Killing Frost, Greenman or her Darkness to deal with your insubordination. For the life of me I am drawing a blank at the name of the dude she uses to torture her court when they misbehave. Crap, it's not Ezekiel, is it? Or Sebastian? Crumb cakes, gonna have to buy all those books again and re-read/re-discover them.

Anyone else do that? Get so immersed into a series of books that the characters and their lives start to feel real to you? For me that's a mark of high esteem for the writer. They managed to pull you into this world and make everyone realistic, complete with flaws and whatnot.

Sholto?

Those books are amazing. And I love Anita Blake, but Merry and her harem/family are like real people to me, and I wish she would write more Merry books.

No, Sholto is King of Nightmares, the underworld basically. He becomes one of Merry's consorts. Yes, I would give my right ovary to be with Frost...

For the record, typing on a laptop with slightly longer nails is tripping me up. Not used to it at all.

*falls over with a yawn*

Why so tired, Kirin?

I was thinking of Sholto because she uses the wild hunt to keep everyone in line, as a threat. I know he's one of her consorts, I love him. But Frost and Doyle are my fantasy. Especially Frost lol. But I mean, they are sort of a pair so...
Let me think...like her human torturer who she faeried away way back when right? That's Ezekiel in the Hallway of Mortality.

I was tired cause of work. So glad I don't work weekends.

Ezekiel is the one I am thinking of, she sends her own son to be tortured by that guy. I mean seriously, who has their son tortured? Apparently she does.

Sholto she uses as her personal nightmare squad, but that's not what he wants to be known for and let's be honest, we can't blame him. Would not want to be at the beck and call of her crazy ass whims.

Would not mind being in the middle of those two, they are rather tasty. My older sister and I would sit around and think of people to play the characters in the book if they ever came out with a live action movie.

Having the weekend off is a nice way to charge the mental batteries. Rodd now gets to work four ten hour days and has Fridays off. Lucky duck.

It's nice now that we have enough people hired that I don't even get asked if I can work weekends.

I did that too, and never found anyone I liked. I mean, they're literally inhumanly beautiful.

Kirin, always nice to have a full crew and not worry about pulling double shifts or working the weekend.

Kit, there are a few people we thought of for the positions, but you are right, their inhuman beauty makes it difficult to cast adequate people. But with enough make up and some CGI they could make it work out. If Anjelica Huston was younger she would be a fabulous Queen Andais. Always pictured her as Andais when I read the books.

Anjelica Huston yes I could see that.

I say let the high school kids have the weekends.

She would have been a great Andais back in her younger days. Tall, dark hair and very fair skin, perfection.

Precisely, that way they can get their hours in for the week and not have to stay up late on a school night.

Nice cheekbones too. Like I always imagined Andais with high cheekbones.

Totally. And the thing she does with her eyebrow conveys so much emotion, it's ridiculous. We thought Orlando Bloom would be a decent Frost, we know he looks good with white hair from when he was in Lord of the Rings.
