But maintaining a mystery without being tiresome about it is tough! You're better at that than I.
Want more? I have six chapters now. Only thing is...one is kinda PG-13 for language. I'm not sure if I can live with that. I'm thinking about taking out the few words I put in, though how to do it without changing the feel, I'm not sure.
I'm a sissy, what can I say?
Sure, send it. I'll tell you if the language is important, or just gratuitous. No guarantee when I'll read it, of course, I'm kinda lazy right now...
OK.
Hey, do you by any chance want a gmail address? I have four initations to hand out...that goes for anyone else that might want one.
I've got one, actually, which I don't really use... thanks, though!
I'm gonna need more furniture.
I seem to be the last geek to the party...but I only JUST got one. I like the interface...will probably use it as my main address for awhile.
OK, sending you what I have. The chapters are a little out of order...and I need to title them eventually so it's clearer who the speaker is. But you'll get the gist of it, I guess.
I also redid chapter one, just to edit out the part that wasn't working.
She gets three credits for this course!

Not so loyal, this one. :-)
Ebenin' ebellybody!!!! [sip]
I need new boots.
Why do you need new boots? Do you have snow?
Yup, Homer is most definitely ~ours~ now.
No snow yet... but it's gonna. Any time now.
Really? We have not a could in the sky.... just dang cold.
we don't have any ~clouds~ either
Supposed to get single digits tonight.
Hope my pipes don't freeze.
So does that mean we have a couldn't in the sky?
They won't if the heat's on.
Didn't our vows say you wouldn't make fun of me?
Well....all the pipes are in inside walls.
Well... not tonight... but maybe tomorrow, and definitely by friday. It's clouding up here, and all the clouds are coming from the North and the Northeast. It's the 'Arctic Express' fixin' ta tune up.
At least... that's what I think.
I've always wanted a pair of Sorel boots. This might be just the excuse. :-)
