So... where did the Jacobites park their cars?

So as I'm suffering in the doctor's office waiting room today with tendonitis of the rotator cuff, Tracey emails me and says "Oh please blog this!"

I concur.  Absolutely hiLARious.  Never in my life did I think I'd actually LAUGH about something that has to do with Culloden Battlefield.

Scottish Mummers!

If you are familiar with the annual Mummer's Parade in Philadelphia on New Year's Day,  you will love this.  If you are not familiar with the annual Mummer's Parade in Philadelphia on New Year's Day, you will love this.

No clue about the double S.  I have to assume all those people know how to spell Scotland.  ;)

 

Outlander Chat Tonight

Outlander Chat Tonight - 9PM Eastern!

My husband Tom is moving along nicely in Dragonfly...and I am going to try to wrangle some good commentary out of him while we're chatting.  Up until now, it's been verra amusing.  Let's just say last night he told me Claire "never listens to Jamie and just charges in with both breasts."

Needless to say, I almost fell off my chair from laughing so hard.  Should be interesting, folks.  ;)

Virtual Jamie Fraser

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

I hope you are all thoroughly enjoying the season!  I am a bit behind and finally getting a chance to post a link to Blue Moon Magnolia's awesome blog post about Virtual Jamie Fraser!  If you havena already seen it, you must go check it out right now!

Thanks to Julia for alerting me to this Jamie fabulousness!

Hayley Atwell IS Claire

Spoiler Alert:  Dinna read unless you have read "An Echo in the Bone".

I just watched "Captain America" and couldn't stop texting Tracey because Hayley Atwell IS Claire Beauchamp Randall Fraser Grey.  She is Claire perfection on a plate!  It's uncanny!!

(My apologies if anyone suffered any kind of faintness of heart whilst watching Eddie Redmayne at work. He is positively scrumptious.)

It's a braw bricht moonlit nicht the nicht!

Outlander Chat

Just wanted to say I am SO SORRY - I completely forgot to blog about chat today!  I was at Tracey's all day, celebrating Christmas with our families and the fact that it was Monday never entered our minds!

Thanks to all who came to chat;  we had a lot of fun!  (I hope you guys got some good Scottish Prisoner chat in while I was putting my kids to bed!)

I hope you all had a wonderful holiday and we'll see you next Monday at 9PM Eastern!

Queer Eye for the Straight Guy!

Why post on this lovely Christmas Eve when I can just show you my TEXT with Tracey from last night!

Spoiler alert: Dinna read unless ye are 25% through The Scottish Prisoner!



Carol:  Do u see what I see? Tom is reading DinA!!!!!

Tracey:  IT'S A CHRISTMAS MIRACLE!!

Carol:  ROFLMAO! Hello you beautiful Savings and Loan!!!!


Carol:  I just suffered through gay sex with lord John. Blooorrtttttt!!!!

Tracey:  STEPHAN!!!!!!!

Carol:  Blech. I dinna need to hear about bending over pillows or lubing it up with the oil from the dish.  He's like Claire with her bedside lotion!


Carol:  Having one's member in one's hand seems to be a central theme in his book.

Tracey:  You r so homophobic lolol  

Carol:   BULLSHIT!! I just don't want to read about the sex!  Look at Dave O!  He's gay and the mere mention of vajayjay throws him into a tailspin!!  Can you imagine his reaction to lesbian sex?!

Author's Note:  Tracey's and I are self-proclaimed fag hags.  She knows I love the gays. :)
