| thoughts from a cunning linguist | |
On Saturday night, Maurice and I dined with The Grand Poobah of Culinary Delights in honour of his birthday. The Queen of Sheba is currently away doing research and visiting family, so she, unfortunately, was unable to take her usual place at the head of the table. (Maurice did us the honour of temporarily taking over her seat, though it must be noted that the Queen remains unrivaled in her ability to command the court.) Also present were some others, who, to this point, have been absent from our sub-blogosphere: the Art Mistress, the Handyman, and the Sheltoid Feminist (all handles are subject to change, pending review). As you might imagine, the food was terrible and a bad time was had by all. No liquor was consumed and smoking on the premises was prohibited.

Posted by: Maurice on May 13, 2003 11:07 PMMy other candidates were: Sheltoid Sheila, MacBitch (but that one seems, well, too harsh), and her own "Excema, Warrior Princess." I like the last one, but who wants to be defined by excema?! I'd forgotten about Lassie, which I also like, but we need Lassie with a bit more edge. We could call her Disco Lassie--or even the Disco Diva. She might like that.
