Subject: QOTD for Wednesday, May 30, 2012

The following quote is taken from Outlander by Diana Gabaldon, Chapter 14, A Marriage Takes Place. Copyright (c) 1991 by Diana Gabaldon. All rights reserved.

“I turned to Jamie in sudden panic. “I can’t marry you! I don’t even know your last name!”
He looked down at me and cocked a ruddy eyebrow. “Oh. It’s Fraser. James Alexander Malcolm MacKenzie Fraser.” He pronounced it formally, each name slow and distinct.
Completely flustered, I said, “Claire Elizabeth Beauchamp,” and stuck out my hand idiotically. Apparently taking this as a plea for support, he took the hand and tucked it firmly in the crook of his elbow. Thus inescapably pinioned, I squelched up the path to my wedding.”

[> And Claire "squelched" up the path. Having a hard time envisioning. Ideas??? Suppressed.? Silenced? Although the while pinioned? Liking this adjectives. -- LollyS, 06:37:28 05/30/12 Wed

[> [> I think she meant "squished" up the path, through the mud. Wasn't it sprinkling or misting? That church sounds wonderful. I'd like to take out the pews and turn it into a ceramics studio. -- Lemora, 22:59:56 05/30/12 Wed
