Unimportant musings.
Why do supermarkets in the UK not stock watermelon juice? I mean, surely out of all the fruits it must be the easiest to produce juice from? I freakin’ love watermelon juice, and you get it in most hotels, so why can’t I buy it? Do I have to be part of some sort of weird cult or elite club to get some? Who the hell is guarding all the watermelons and the juicers that go with them? I mean, don’t get me wrong, I sure do love having actual slices of watermelon and eating them, but watermelon juice just concentrates the delicious melony flavour in an easily transported form!
… As you can tell, I’ve not really got much to talk about today. Although my haste is precipitated by a number of things, i.e. I’m desperate to get away to do a spot of short story writing and then cap off the day with a bit of exploration of the massive new Starbound update. It’s been a busy week, with not much chance for creative work beyond Elf Blood, but we’ll get there, we’ll get there!
Anyhoozles, will see you all on Monday. Have a great weekend, everyone!

My German is a bit rusty, so maybe a native speaker could weigh in on the matter also, but I think that “fraulein” would be a better colloquial term than “meine dame,” which is more formal.
Please, my German by comparison to ANYONE has by now fossilised and is in the process of forming a new source of coal 😛 Having said that, I did want a certain level of formality here, as Preacher and Bishop are priestly members of the nobility (which, to be fair, I only really alluded to once before they set out on their journey, see the bit where Pathfinder pops out of the bushes and Ritter tells her off). Good catch, though, I like it when people think 😀
If you’re going for something formal, then the way you have it should be good to go. Then again, I know about enough German to ask “Which way is the restroom” without sounding foolish, so….
Anyway, keep up the good work.
I’m going to have a stab at this one without any reference material, so buckle up and here we go!
Wo ist.. Das… Kloe?
Klo is fine, except at restaurants and such, where you’d use “WC” or “die Toilette.”
For the watermelon post, I think it’s because 1. not many people use or drink watermelon juice or 2. the saying that watermelon is mostly water XD (even in our supermarkets we don’t have them)
Totally just bought a third of a watermelon. Tempted just to eat it for breakfast, with a spoon.
