sleepest thou, companion dear?

Yes I am posting with this as my subject even though it's the 20th January. Today is the day I'm heading out back to chop up the Christmas Tree for easier disposal! It's also the day I post about the lovely things people sent me for Christmas and other thoughts on the end of the year! 

( I love you guys - yes that means YOU )

I was talking to firestorm717  about postcards and such and such which led pretty quickly to this exchange:

firestorm717 : Hm, you know, we should totally do fandom postcards...like RPing letters between characters? Maybe even form a ring, with one person sending to the next on the list.

viceindustrious : YES, woa, YES. That is the coolest idea ever! Am I lame for thinking that's the coolest idea ever? RPing letters. I WOULD BE ALL OVER THAT.

firestorm717 :  LETTER RP FTW. You should make a post about it and get unsettled, anneka, and whoever else on board :D We can hash out the details as a group.  

So. So guys. Do you think this sounds like a wicked idea? Is it just my crazy love for getting actual mail?

And oh! With LETTERS character choice of stationary and colour of ink and...and...all of that! It would be magnificent really? PEOPLE? AGREE?

We could have a big old discussion about this on IM if we got everyone to sign on at some particular time. Which reminds me, any of you guys that I don't have on my yahoo contacts need to step up and correct that.

  After having read the same sort of flavor of fic for the past few days, I now have this niggling urge to use words I never normally would. Like 'ghastly'. 

You know, with the long A. 

As in, I have a boxing class this evening but I know it'll be frightfully exhausting and the prospect is rather ghastly.

Problem is. That's all true. Hmmm, if I announce it on the internet will that strengthen my conviction to actually turn up? No, no, I have to go. It's been a cerebral couple of days, I think it's well past time to go punch something.
