Where for art thou?

What’s the plural for thou? Thous fullas…?

Anyway. Where have all the commenters gone? I’m not just talking about on BM, because I’ve been posting so erratically I hardly deserve comments. But, looking at the Stonesoup homepage, where it shows the number of comments on the most recent post, there’s just one big fat zero after another. Except for History and Kitty Lifter, but those posts have been up since Oct 31 and Sep 18 respectively, so that hardly counts. Where are you? You’re all slackers!

Hey guess what? I passed my test. Wooooh! Only half the class passed, so I’m quite stoked that I was among them. And I’m learning soooo much, it’s so great. You know when you’ve just been to the gym, or gone for a long ride, and you’re exhausted but you feel really good, really healthy and strengthened and nourished? That’s how I feel right now, but with my mind as well as my body.

Oh, and have I mentioned how much I suck at poi? I had no idea it could be so hard…

I’ve got to go and work on some translation.

"Old English used THOU as a singular and YOU as a plural." from http://www.linguistlist.org/~ask-ling/archive-most-recent/msg01835.html

(And, just to be pedantic, "wherefore" means "why", not "where".)

Yeah, it's been quiet round here for a while, eh? Perhaps we should give spot prizes or something? ;)

Congratulations on the test! Wheee.

I *did* have posts at my entry, but no-one seems to care about my latest one. People have been giving me their silly names, but not caring about Tori.

C'est la vie I guess.

Yeah, weird. All the comments just stopped. I've been mad busy for the past wee while (with not much to show damnit)
Hoping my writing chops are up for it soon!
