A big huge SHOUT OUT to Lazybum for assisting me in the passing of the principal for the Funerary Temple. I could have never done it without him.
June 28-29, 2009 Jeff finished second at New Hampshire and remains at 2nd in the standings. Next week, Daytona, Saturday night race that I may have to tape due to a previous partying invitation. Roger Federer made it to the quarterfinals at Wimbledon, so all of my sports peeps have done well this week so far. The war still does not seem to be important to anyone at CNN or on any of the newschannels and MJ still is the biggest news to everyone except me it seems. The human is very disappointed in the media right now.

Congrats and shout out to Rabble for once again hosting a wonderful dig in Saqq. Congrats and shout out to me for my 5th speed point. :D You know you are foraging too much when this pops up.
June 26, 2009
A wave of guilt came over me when I read Rabble's request for herb seeds to open up a tech. I am an avid forager and I forgot to go to get herbies (Herbiculture) So I ran to UWorship and grabbed it and went on an expedition. While foraging I came upon a cage that took me forever to get, but as you can see it was well worth it. Yay for an achievement that I never thought I would get.
June 25, 2009 A sad news day in rl. Farrah Fawcett died after a long battle with cancer. I remember cutting my hair just like her's when Charlie's Angels came out. She was a symbol of the 70's and will be missed. I was watching the news as I was making charcoal and CNN had a correspondent in Iran reporting on the unrest, all of a sudden they interrupted to say that Michael Jackson had been taken to the hospital. I have every MJ album/CD he ever made and have always been a fan of his music. Opinions about his private life will stay off this blog, but the music was great and I have really wonderful memories of hearing his songs while doing all sorts of fun things in rl. Eventually CNN reported that MJ died and continued with coverage of thousands of fans gathering around the hospital he passed away at. What happened to the correspondents in Iran? There really is something wrong with us.
June 24, 2009 Yippee... My Funerary Temple is complete... now to glorify it... pffttt
June 23, 2009
Heeeeers Johnny.... A big shout out to Ed McMann who is now upstairs hanging out with Johnny Carson who I loved on The Tonight Show.
Funerary Temples... What can I say? It was easy to buy some of the things I can't make or get myself. But of course the things I can do on my own, I do. So here I am picking silt like forever. 5,000 firebricks is a lot of firebricks. My poor back is aching from picking up so much silt....and why isn't it there when you want it? After you pick it, it takes forever it seems to come back to pick some more. I have to remember when I'm making and gathering stuff to add silt to the stuff just in case, because as I have said many times, you can't have enough stuff.
June 22, 2009 Jeff came in 9th, Roger won in the first round of Wimbledon, and it is a wonderful day in the neighborhood.
June 21, 2009 There was a fab role play in game today. I got to do what I do, talk about how wonderful Sami is. I didn't get to propose though and that saddens me. He was at the Saqqarah chariot stop and as I ran towards him he warped out. Did i scare him away?
Today the race is in Sonoma, CA. Jeff starts 13th but he is usually very good at these road tracks, so I am hoping for good things. A great big shout out to all the father's out there and a Happy Father's Day to you all. Another happy note, Rafa Nadal will NOT be playing at Wimbledon... Let's Go Roger.
June 20, 2009 A Huge shout out to Rabble for hosting another wonderful dig. A big hug to DustiTwister for coming back to Egypt. You’re the greatest Dusti :D
June 19, 2009
I attended the lovely nuptials of UltraVox and SapphyreVox in Saqqarah. A wonderful time was had by all. A fireworks display followed with some excellent wines that caused us all to fall flat on our faces while celebrating. Congratulations to the happy couple...
I have finally come up with my next solo project. To build a Funerary Temple. I will probably never pass the test, but it would be nice to pass the principal. I have never built one of these thingy’s before so this should be interesting. Tonight I am starting my silt gathering for the 5,000 firebricks I will need. I looked down the list and think a few purchases at the Goods will be in order for gold and/or silver. Today is day one working on the gathering of stuff to make stuff to put in the thingy to pass the principal.
June 17, 2009 Date Tree Rant I know, I know, date trees are for everyone, and it's fine for everyone to pick at all the date trees, BUT.... it would be a nice gesture of community to saltpeter the date tree after you have picked the dates. Why do I bring this up? Ok, now for the unsolicited rant... MY, yes, MY, date tree that is not 10 feet from my compound (yes I measured it) was picked clean today and the culprit did not saltpeter it afterwards. Yes Teppy, it's MY tree, and I happily share it with all of Egypt to pick dates from it, but it would be nice to saltpeter it afterwards for the next person to have dates. Why is it my tree? I named it. Yes my date tree has a name; it's my No Date With Sami Tree. Tonight, there I was chatting away with my YAYA sister Korrin who was telling me about the YAYA Star firework she made, side note: (YAYA YAYA YAYA YAYA) when all of a sudden I noticed my No Date With Sami Tree was picked clean. It was a horrible experience. No Date With Sami is very sad now that it has no dates on it.
June 15, 2009 To get a mule or not get a mule. My human will be off for the summer in 2 weeks and a mule would be very nice to help out for the 2 months. Something to contemplate.
June 14, 2009 Rain in NYC, Sun in Egypt. Hip Hip Hoorah! A huge shout out to MariahBoPeep and her favorite driver Jimmie Johnson, Jimmie ran out of gas on the last lap after leading the race for 146 laps at Michigan, Jeff and Mark Martin passed him, Mark won and Jeff came in second. Way to go Jimmie. huggers to MariahBoPeep for being a great sport.
June 13, 2009
Jeff will start in 27th place at Michigan on Sunday. I built my little thingy for the event and it looks lovely next to a group of trees I have near my cp.
June 9-12, 2009 Real Life Rant... I enjoyed being a part of the Vigil with Worship World this past weekend. I think it's a great thing to play around with pyrotechnics even with all the mats I have to make. I love foraging. BUT... there is Real Life. Real Life, what a strange thing to say. Is Real Life much different than Fake Life? Is being in Egypt a Fake Life? I think not. I am real in Egypt, sometimes too real. BUT... there are things that must be done in that Real Life that take me away from my Real Egypt Life and they have all decided to pounce on me this week. The first and second week of July the human is doing Real Life stuff that will be taking both of us away from Egypt for a few days. In preparation for those days, we (the human and I) find it necessary to do things in Real Life that take us away from Egypt Life every so often for the next week or two. Very distressing. Shakes head, Woe is Me.
June 8, 2009
Jeff came in 4th at Pocono and remains at 2nd in the standings. Just so no one thinks I'm slacking in the Sami proposal department, I took the opportunity while the server was down to go on IRC and say the following:
June 7, 2009 Hip Hip Hooray! Roger Federer won the French Open for the first time. The Vigil was great last night and was stopped only by an unusual gem cut. A big shout out to everyone at Worship World. The Heket tournament was interesting and is still going on I think, I would like to thank TonyG for giving me some very important pointers on how to play. This afternoon the ever boring Pocono race is on. I say ever boring because I have been to it a few times and stopped going because of the boredom of such a large track. But of course, I will watch it anyway. Let's go Jeff.
June 6, 2009 Roger made it to the finals in the French Open, Jeff starts second at Pocono tomorrow, Sami still hasn't come online for me to make my 21st proposal to, and Worship World is having a Vigil all weekend of which I am proud to be a part of tonight between 4-8 if the traffic on the LIE isn't too bad (crossing fingers.)
June 5, 2009 This afternoon at 3pm begins the Vigil at Worship World in Meroe. Time to get our points for passing the test and cleaning out our stuff of stuff we made to make more stuff for things we changed our minds to build and then we have to make more stuff again for the next project which by now I have forgotten what it is. I will be hosting tomorrow Saturday between 4-8 pm, but will for sure be hanging around to learn from the wonderful expert hosts/elders tonight.
June 4, 2009 Roger Federer made it to the semi finals at the French Open. Here's to Roger, while I cross my fingers he finally wins it.
June 3, 2009 Hip Hip Hooray... I received my 4th speed point. On a sour note, I won't talk about aqueducts.
June 2, 2009 Fahrenheit 451 minus the books, add the stuff. I'm very excited. I've joined Worship World and they are doing a wonderful vigil this weekend of which I will partially be hosting Saturday between 4-8. It starts Friday night and continues all weekend. You know what a vigil is... we burn all the stuff that we work so hard to make, we burn more and make more. It is a great time to burn stuff that is keeping my warehouses and chests full. I am one little itty bitty person with 2 almost 3 warehouses and a number of chests full of stuff. You know the stuff, all that stuff we make for well, stuff we do, and the extra stuff we burn. So come one come all and cheer me on while I call out stuff for us all to burn so we can go back and make more stuff that we will never use anyway and might as well burn it also, just so we can pass the test or just pass the principal.
June 1, 2009 As I start off this month I am very happy to say hip hip hooray for June. May ended up pretty poorly with Jeff ending up 26th in the Dover race and giving up his first place standing in the rankings. My petition got the Iwantaponyveto and that is pretty bad also. Sami has NOT been around for any photo ops or proposals and I don't understand that at all. I could have sworn he smiled the last time he saw me and said my name. BUT... on a happy side, Roger Federer won his match this morning and Rafa Nadal lost yesterday. So Roger will not have to play Rafa in the finals (crosses fingers he gets there.) One last happy note to the end of May, my bathing suits didn't shrink as much as I thought they did *wink*wink, although they did shrink a little, so no more chocolates while running around Egypt.
