He doesn't, unfortunately... that would be too easy!

You should buy him a puppet ostrich sidekick called Mr Bigglesworth, consumating his role as an escaped children's TV show character and delighting rambunctious, manic depressive kingirls everywhere. If you can't get an ostrich, make it a shoggoth.

Also, irrelevantly, I discover [livejournal.com profile] illuviel and I have the same birthday. 10/21 NEVER FORGET.

Ooh; I knew I liked you for some reason. ;>

Okay, so it's for many reasons.

But you've an excellent tastes in birthdays, to boot. :>

I know another gentleman of elfy extraction, offline (tho' I think he's online *somewhere* as he did webstuff for a living last I checked) who has the same natal day. Good stuff. Glad to share. Apparently it was a good day for pointy people.

Great suggestion...

I ordered Mr. Bigglesworth today, but sadly, he won't get here on time... That's ok. He'll arrive after he has forgotten, and just appear one day by his computer.

The scream was probably audible inside the houses next door. In retrospect, I wish I'd had an audio recorder set up before I showed it to him...

He'll be most pleased. I thank you, too.

Did you happen to see an orthodontic headgear amongst the stuff? He says he hasn't seen it since DC and I said I'd check with you.

Looks kinda like a mutant slingshot, only not, or bizarre horseygear. Stainless steel 'bit' piece with denim 'bridle'.

You're welcome! I'm sorry it took me so long to get off of my arse and drop it in the mail. I had intended to do that right after you left.

I just asked [livejournal.com profile] rialian - neither of us has seen the orthodontic headgear. The best bet is probably to check the RV where you all slept - maybe it slipped behind one of the foldout cots (not sure of the arrangement in there - it's been a long, long time since I've seen the inside of one of those, but there may be all kinds of crannies where headgear could hide).

Will and shall. It's *somewhere*, and quite possibly between the back of the foldout couch and the wall, but the rig was whisked off to the RV hospital shortly after our return home (in order to repair the generator, which we went without through the trip).

Thank you for the speedy return of Secundus's stuff, ma'am.
