Whoa. That was disturbing. Well, I'm pretty sure that was your goal though Lauren. Well fucking done.
Wow, for a second time an absolutely amazing author graces me with her flattery. I'm just surprised that you liked something in my work well enough that you'd use it in your own. Oh geez, thank you so much. These shout outs you send me may be the best compliments I've ever been given.
Jennifer, you and your Catalan woes. How unfortunate. Catalan is actually the native language of Spain, most think it's Spanish but that was derived from Latin and Catalan. Catalan is a Basque dialect. The Basque languages were developed and spoken by the Muslim Moor people that attempted to conquer the Iberian peninsula during the crusades. Thus, the languages were transferred to what would become the future present day countries of Spain, Portugal, and Andorra. Hope that clears things up for you.
Yeah, I know. That was me spazzing out again on history. Sorry, I just can't help myself. If someone has a question like that, I just feel the need to explain it.
As for Katherine, send her my well wishes. Good luck with her arm and the like. :)
