Bill Gates is Toast!

I just lost an hour's worth of typing and revising on the next part of Bergil's story because Microsoft works decided to crap out on me just as I was moving the mouse up to the "save" icon.

Dirty words, foul and unspeakable language!

Ggggrrr.... Let's see how far I can get before midnight, then...

Titivillus? And what are his accoutrements? A spilled inkwell and a broken quill?

[dreamflower]

Back in the Middle Ages, Titivillus was assigned by the devil to hang around the monasteries and scriptoriums with his bag, and fill it up every day with the scribes' mistakes. Of course, sometimes he'd help them along in those mistakes so he could get his quota. So the best excuse for a major mess-up was "Titivillus made me do it." LOL! I don't think he's gone into retirement now--I'm sure he's responsible for all the strange things my computer does to my writing. (Of course, he hasn't given up on the old-fashioned calligraphy either. He has spoiled many a scroll for me.)

I googled and found a few images, but I couldn't tell if any were authentically medieval.
