I am not meant to be a soap carver.

very true.

I knew you'd understand me ;)

Sometimes I think I'm the only one.

Especially when I don't even understand myself...

Why not? Who thwarted your soap carving ambitions? Did a patron withdraw financial support, or did you refuse a commission because you felt it to be too bourgeoisie, or did your model die of consumption? What happened?

[oloriel.livejournal.com]

Neither... sadly I must admit that the results just didn't match my expectations. Besides, it was a very strong scented soap. Our whole living room is still smelling of wild roses. ;)

Awww, I'm sorry, hon.

No portrait of the artist as a young woman?

Can I commission a carving of Grond, Hammer of the Underworld, so that I can give it to Fingolfin?

I always thought poor Fingolfin must have been sooooo embarassed when he showed up in Mandos, because he was struck down with the most pretentiously named weapon in the entire history of the Universe.

Wha - no, I'm certainly not taking soap carving commissions. And I wouldn't even know how to make Grond look. Like Thor's hammer?

I was kidding! Kidding!!

Thor's hammer, maybe, but bigger, and with an attitude problem?
