Video of Thomcat taped to a chair by his house elves.
Here it is. I promised I'd post it.

My friends, the "house elves" taped me to a chair to keep me from working when they were unpacking my stuff and moving furniture in my temporary apartment. Here is the video. :P

3. I think you're right.
:7

There's talk on our Harry Potter group's list about using stronger tape next time and doing other unpleasant things to me. I don't know if the guys will be so envious then. :P

6. I'm glad you are amused.
:P

I have to admit though, it's all my own fault. They warned me several times. I was already on a lot of painkillers, and I couldn't afford to over-exert myself. Maybe this will knock some sense into me. :rofl:

4. I book marked this thread.
I don't have youtube here, but I go to see this when I go to the library.

That sounds so cool. How are you? :hug:

9. It's really cool.
I don't mind being the butt of the occasional joke, especially when it's funny and well played. :)

I am pretty sure this is going to turn into a running gag though. I'm going to have to either A) learn to listen and obey, or B) learn become and escape artist. :P

19. Oh, I know they won't hesitate to do this again.
I'm in a lot of trouble. :P

As long as they limit this to surgical tape I'm okay. As soon as they graduate to packing tape or duct tape I'm doomed! :o

20. I would introduce you to some of the elves if I could get you
Edited on Tue Oct-14-08 09:59 PM by ThomCat
and them in the same place. :hug:

I think you would get along famously with some of them. :P

But under no circumstances would you be allowed to help them tape me to any chairs. x(

21. I don't do tape
My forte is filling rooms with balloons, shredded newspaper, styrofoam peanuts, etc. :evilgrin:

22. Do you clean up all of that stuff afterward?
Or is that how you intend to inflict unending torments upon me? :P

And here I thought you were my friend.

I bet I find you rolling in the peanuts with one of the house elves too. x(

23. The last time, we didn't have to
The night before the editor's birthday, we shredded a stack of newspapers three feet high and carpeted his office with it.

He kept hollerin' "I LOVE this!" Cleaned it up himself, but not until after lunch. :D

30. Yup. House elves love you, but they aren't always nice about it.
:P

They do fantastic work. I am amazed at how much they were able to do in my temporary apartment. This place would not be livable without them.

I'll put up with tough love to have their help. :)

32. Hi Parche!
:hi:

It does. :P

There wasn't anything kinky going on though unless you have a really odd sense of what's kinky. It was a bunch of woman tying me up so they could rearrange my furniture, unpack some boxes, and do my laundry. :)

34. It's really kind of weird...
There are really awesome people everywhere. On my own I am no good at finding them. But when I meet people through friends, or through friends of friends, I seem to have a talent for finding those really awesome people and becoming good friends with them.

:shrug:

There are a lot of really awesome people out there, and I keep meeting more of them. That's really cool. :)

38. Thank you.
:)

That is my reminder of things I have studied and learned over the years, and my quick focus for meditations that help with pain.

I had quite a few Hindu deities in various sizes and materials. I also had a few statues from Chinese, Tibetan, and Japanese mythos. That Ganesha and a small Laxmi are all I'm keeping. Everything else has either been given away or is going to be given away.

I also gave away half a dozen boxes of books about various religions, religious history, mythologies, mysticism, and theologies. I'm only keeping the ones I think I'll really enjoy re-reading.

39. I got a slew of Goddesses
Isis, Sarasvati, Green Tara, White Tara, two Virgin Marys, and at least five Quan Yins around my apartment. I can use all the Divine help I can get. And it does keep the Mormons and Jehovah's Witnesses off my doorstep ("What's with the prayer flags and the women with six arms?" "I don't know, Charlie, but I think this one's a lost cause".).
