No, this is not a Tammy awards pimp post because I do not believe in all that crazy self pimping stuff. This is a VERY LONG LEAVE OF ABSENCE POST.

For the next six weeks, starting tomorrow, I am going to be travelling around Europe. And then when I get back, I'm home for about all of two days before I head out to South Carolina to visit friends for a week. So, pretty much? For the next seven weeks I have absolutely no idea when I'll be online. I will be online at occassion, what with me not being a nightclub type person and there being internet at all the hostels I'm staying at and internet cafes being rather prominent in Europe. But the hours are going to be completely different than normal.

So? Any threads that are currently slowtimed? I am more than willing to continue them.

Any threads that will be started while in Europe? Unless it's plot related, most likely will be left to fade when I'm off the computer that day/night.

Prompt communities have been notified and while I will try to write things when on trains, I can sort of see myself easily forgetting about all of this while on my travels. So they will probably be few and far between until the next seven weeks past.

I sort of hate to leave Sarah Jane hanging like this, especially as she's new to many of the prompt communities and games I have her in, but as always, real life outweighs the internet one. Especially when it's backpacking around Europe with your own best friend.

What I ask of all of you is to use this post please to just comment with anything you think I would either enjoy reading or should read for SJ's sake when I get back. It would be forever appreciated.

Well, take care you lot! If I see the Doctor while travelling, I'll tell him ya'll say hi. :P

Yeah. That's just really awesome, again. It's a nice thing to see in a popularity contest, the creativity as opposed to just saying "omg this and this and this" that involves your muse. Except, given my real dislike of popularity anything (because there's always the big half that doesn't win and feels depressed and like they suck afterwards) and the fact that I'm leaving tomorrow, I'm just sort of refraining from doing anything.

Total whirlwind of Europe! I am so excited about Pompeii because we're staying in a hostel right near the ruins and it just makes the geek in me go :D:D:D. I'm actually going with one friend, who's more of a brother to me than anything. Which should make it even better.

The muse would like to win something, but her heart isn't set on it or anything. But she wants Peter to win for best hair, because it is! *L* No. She already witnessed a big win in her life when Nathan became Congressman. That's one campaign she gave a heck of a lot into--despite Nathan telling her that he was going to win anyways. *L* She was still like, "Well, we have to get you there for that to happen. Even if it's supposed to happen." The Tammys allows her a place where she can be a little more open about her feelings for Nathan and she can be silly. Both make her a very happy muse. *L* Actually, you wanna know how excited she is about that? When it was announed that the Tammys would be in June, she began, and found, a dress picture for the ceremony. *L*

Yeah. *nod* But I think the organizer(s) of this event are trying to have it be more about silly than anything else. There were problems at the last one, from what I vaguely remember reading.

Wow!! That's cool! Very much so. Pompeii is so history alive. It looked that way hundreds of years ago and it looks that way now. There are so few things like that. That's fun! My friend had just her friend on their trip of England, last year. Had such a blast. They went to work a bit on Hadrian's Wall.

Yeah, I'm not surprised to hear that. I think there are problems with every event like this. In Milliways, they have a pimp thread thing that I really don't like because only a handful of threads get pimped and you tend to see the same people recommended again and again and it does wonders for people with low self esteem.

I've never been to Pompeii before and I think that's probably where I'm most excited about going. And oo, working on Hardrian's Wall? That's so cool! We're probably going to go see that because we're both classic dorks to a degree.

Years and years ago I was in a room that had season awards called the Charleys. It was a Marvel, X-Men based room.

Yeah, no fun in having the same people. Everybody should be recognized. I try to do that, recognize the people who deserve recognition. They may happen to be popular, but if they're good at what they do? I'm a big fan of effort and passion.

I know I would be. Seeing the ruins. Wow! It's so unearthly. They really enjoyed it. Took part in digging out a trench. My friend wanted to continue working and not come back home. *L* You should! She had such a ball.

Fun times. And agreed, although it can be difficult. Popularity has a lot of different facits to it, not just being good at what they do. It also, I think, depends on the characters and what not. Oh well. I won't be here for the Tammys so I shouldn't really worry about that whole rejected feeling that comes with.

Seeing the ruins is going to be amazing. Living next door to it for four days even more so. I totally don't blame your friend for wanting to do that. Some day I will participate in an excavation, I swear.

All true and good points. *snugs* Definitely don't worry about it at all.

I feel so out of history where I live (Southern California). It's just sububia. My dad's from MA where history is at least 300 years old and you're more likely to see it. Neither do I! I was more envious. *L* You gotta. Me too, for that matter. The sixth grade excavation I did hardly counts! *L* I did dress for the occasion, though. Wore a safari hat, khaki shorts, and a blouse of some kind. Totally took the whole archaeologist thing to heart. *L*

I live in NYC, so there's lots of history here. I went to school outside of Boston, so even more history. I absolutely love it though.

And such a diverse atmosphere, too. Lots of layers. I don't even see that much in LA, sadly. A bit, but not really.
