Eleventh Thread: Wedding Edition: The Hobbit Hole XI - No One Admitted Except on Wedding Business!
New verse:
Upon the hearth the fire is red, |
Still round the corner there may wait |
Home is behind, the world ahead, |
No, but it's great that they did. They must have surely gotten your letter. *giggle-squeal-clap!!*
What do you make of Kerry and the notecards?
It wouldn't surprise me *at all*. Rule are for little people, dontcha know.
:)
I just signed up too....now all I need is a story...and a plot....and characters...and setting...and mood....and toaster...
I was just thinking I should write a story about my life. It's been a pretty interesting life, if you ask me!
Get up, go to work, come home, feed cat, go to bed. Get up, go to work..... :)
Heh!
I haven't really lived though, until I pull a catfish bigger than me out of a hole in a river bank.
You mean there are lady noodlers?
Great!
I'd sign up too except it's rejecting my email address... hmm...
Once upon a time there was a toaster. A toaster corrupted by bad habits it learned as it sat in a pawnshop. For instance: sometimes it's elements wouldn't heat up, other times it popped too soon, and still at other times it would not pop at all leaving charred bread slabs in its slots......
Now how do I get Guido in there?
You'll figure it out....
I am fighting an urge to write a Victorian-style novel, or at least one with Victorian chapter headings ("A Lost Cat; Introduction To A Toaster; The Importance of Bread; Italians; On Pawnshops; The Toaster Again")... hey, that would help my word count!
Chapter headings count?
If the wordcounter picks it up, it counts.
Ok, Rosie, I managed to reactivate my account from last year - just go to the site and login - and if you can't remember your password they'll email you a new one.
Chapter 1: In Which we are Introduced to the Evil Toaster of Doom, a Pawn Shop, a Cat, and a Suspicious Character whose Description I Might as Well Repeat Here to Boost my Wordcount.
A Cat? There's a cat?
There could be a cat... would the cat help? Maybe Guido is looking for that cat when he falls prey to the Toaster.
Maybe...maybe. But first he has to see the dead DVD player shopper on the floor of the pawnshop.
Maybe the cat attracts his attention to the dead body...
More likely that the cat senses the Evil OverToaster and bails out.
