〔 f i v e 〕

I never thought I would welcome a break like this.

Oh, I am quite accustomed to attending public gatherings and meetings as such, but there are times where I wonder if the Eppestans forget that I do require just a bit more rest than they do. Or the fact that attending countless events that go into the morning hours does tire me out quicker than it does them.

[obviously still amused nonetheless, smiling] It is a shame I was unable to bring any recording of sorts of the orchestral performances from last night, though. Such beautiful playing would have helped to ease my frustration of listening to the council earlier on. Really now, it would seem that some things never do change in relation to matters within politics.

Had I missed anything important in the duration of my absence here?

Ohhh, haven't missed much. Just me. [brightly] Should have known you were just working too much. You really should relax a bit more.

[teasingly] You are usually in a category of your own when it comes to current events.

[grins] Oh, there's always something new and exciting going on.

[with a bright smile] Never a dull moment.

I may have to stop by to do a 'dull moment' inspection. You're not allowed very many.

All I've got are Beatles recordings, if you don't mind those.

Oh that's a bit rich, Doctor!

[identity profile] tastefulfashion.livejournal.com 2008-05-14 07:20 am (UTC)(link)
Oh that's quite all right. I had had my fair share of listening to them quite often when I used to travel with The Doctor.

You say that like you like the dull moments.

[identity profile] notquiteawidow.livejournal.com 2008-05-14 07:31 am (UTC)(link)
Are you another friend of his?

[identity profile] tastefulfashion.livejournal.com 2008-05-14 07:32 am (UTC)(link)
I don't mind the occasional dull moment.

[identity profile] tastefulfashion.livejournal.com 2008-05-14 07:33 am (UTC)(link)
From some time ago, yes.

[identity profile] salvagestime.livejournal.com 2008-05-14 07:36 am (UTC)(link)
Only if they're occasional. 'Course, then it depends on what's 'dull'.

[identity profile] notquiteawidow.livejournal.com 2008-05-14 07:37 am (UTC)(link)
There's loads of us around, apparently. I'm Donna, by the way.

[identity profile] tastefulfashion.livejournal.com 2008-05-14 07:41 am (UTC)(link)
Spending five hours listening to stuffy old men debate over tedious matters would certainly qualify as a dull moment, though not a particularly pleasant one.

[identity profile] tastefulfashion.livejournal.com 2008-05-14 07:43 am (UTC)(link)
That really doesn't come to me as a surprise.

A pleasure, Donna - I am Romanadvoratrelundar.

[identity profile] salvagestime.livejournal.com 2008-05-14 07:50 am (UTC)(link)
Sounds almost like classes. That's a good reason to stay away from politics.

[identity profile] notquiteawidow.livejournal.com 2008-05-14 07:52 am (UTC)(link)
I suppose it shouldn't. Seems like he knows everyone.

[pauses, then says perfectly] Romanadvoratrelundar. Just a bit long.

[identity profile] tastefulfashion.livejournal.com 2008-05-15 12:19 am (UTC)(link)
[wry smile] That is what he likes everyone to think.

Fred would also do.

Well, there certainly needs to be at least one person there with common sense and some semblance of intelligence.

But I'm over here.

[identity profile] notquiteawidow.livejournal.com 2008-05-15 07:54 am (UTC)(link)
I can't tell if he's joking or not half the time.

Fred? [grins] All right, I'll call you Fred.

One never knows quite how exhausted one can get, until it happens.

I don't suppose you could convince them to sing instead?
