Make it three- the new Bond movie (with Cleese) has a Holy Grail reference in it. 'It was just a flesh wound!' Hilarious!

My favorite of his is probably "The Window Up Above".

Have you heard Alone Again (LP/CD)?

I'm busy trying to get as much crap written as I can. Hope to hit 40000 today.

My sister is coming down with the kids on Tuesday and I have to be somewhat sociable then. I'm trying to get as much written before they come or I'll be writting something subpar even for crap on the night of the 30th.

And he ran and he ran and he ran and he ran and he ran and he ran.....

Afternoon all! Folks must have been out and about yesterday afternoon and into the night. We went to late afternoon Mass, then came home and watched "The Time Machine". The kids and I had seen it in the theater, but Sir SuziQ hadn't seen it yet. He like it a lot, but I noticed our ds absented himself during the scary Morlok chase and the underground scenes. I had to close MY eyes a couple of times!

Lazing around the house today, though I have to go out in a minute to give the lawn one last moving ans suck up the leaves before the snows come! See y'all later.

Hi guys, just got back from the ER. Had another kidney stone attack. They're not fun. ;^(

Listening to the music posted by ecurbh, thanks guy! It's making me feel a lot better. ;^)

Glad to hear your art show went well Sam.

Good grief ksen! I hope that has passed!

Sounds terrible. I do hope the music makes you forget that!

Hi all, very tired and busy here. Hopeufully I'll get back to you this evening. I haven't written much this weekend and I took a wrong turn Thursday or Friday. I may cut a few pages out when I revise. Oh well; this week is the Grande Finale.

Hullo Jen! - Well, busy is better than kidney stones! Me, I checked my fenceline this morning with the expectation of it needing maintenance, but except for having to tighten some of the wire, it was in good order!

So now I am doing laundry, puttering, taking it pretty easy.

Hi, gang,

I'm wayyyyy behind here at the Hole. I think I have about four hundred posts to catch up on.

I have a job interview! Hooray! However, it's not until the first week of December since it's at the local college, and they have all next week off. Sounds like mostly the guy I'd be working for would be doing the interview, which is good. He didn't give me a specific time yet. I think he wanted to wait until after this vacation to pick an actual time, but he said sometime during that first week. So that's positive!

Still behind on my story. I'm hoping to hit 33,000 tonight (have about a thousand words to go), and then I'll have to attempt to write about 3000 words a day until next Saturday, which is tough but doable. My quality is suffering, I think, but oh well. Then again, what quality am I talking about? I've been writing crap since day one, right? ;-) But I'm probably putting in more unnecessary dialog than I was at first.

Ksen, sorry to hear about your kidney stone! From what I hear, those are excruciatingly painful. Hope you're much better now.

Ecurbh, I have a really slow connect speed here at home (once I get a job, I may switch to cable!) so I haven't listened to all of the music, but I'll get there! Thanks for the links!

Gotta get back to writing (and reading Mansfield Park). Anyone chatting tonight?

Congratulations on your interview!

Dazzle 'em doll! It would be wonderful if you can get that job!

It has been awful quiet in here this weekend.... I am half-freeping, half playing video games, until time comes to feed ponies, then I think I will be early to bed tonight. I missed out on sleep last night. Late to bed, but early to rise. I should have gone back to bed this morning!
