I noticed that yesterday and it's really bugging me.
Anyway, I'm beginning to think we may actually get moved this weekend. Amazing.
Good night!
You could just wait five minutes, then make the post.
Izzit Friday yet?
We get free lunch and a half-day off on Friday. Plus, it's Pay Day.
There are about a half-dozen chapters of The Gift Of Sight where the main character secretly observes other characters interacting through windows. I'm going to write those "window" scenes twice --- once as short stories from the perspective of the participants, once in the novel from the main character's perspective.
And I think I have real-life NaNo partners --- a former co-worker and her sister might write with me.
It's my last day at the school job. So of course my boss asks me to come in before eight because the person who is supposed to open up the labs can't be there. Heh.
*yawn*

Mornin' folkses...

Interesting story idea there, Rose...
~mornin'~
Stopping by quickly on my way for more coffee.
Rose - I don't have a plot or a setting. I just have a hankering to build a story around two characters named "Chester Drawers" and "Strippity Do-Dah."
So, there's that...
(lunch anyone?)
I'm thinking about trying another rewrite of a story that's been bugging me for years now... I've got the setting right now (that took three rewrites) and the basic plot but every time I write it, it changes. It's interesting, actually, almost a metaphor of where I am as a writer when I try writing it.
I think its lunchtime in Iceland.
Nope. Missed it. Iceland is on GMT with London.
Huh. Not Thule, Greenland either.
Apparently it isn't lunchtime anywhere just now.
That's interesting. Sorta.
"Time is an illusion, lunchtime doubly so".
Sorta

I was thinking about that. Apparently we're in some daily double-illusion-free hour. Only forty minutes left. Not sure what to do with it.
Sneaky little varmint!! Did ya buy the fence at the same place I bought the cheap-a** faucets?
Oh, it was kinda funny, I hadn't brought up the replacement faucet issue with OB when he got home Tuesday night. He was reading through the HH posts, and found my post to you; a different way of breaking the news, I guess.
We got quarter sized hail the other night. Dang near beat my garden to death. Punched holes in all my squash leaves and flattened my lettuce. It stripped so many leaves off the trees that it looked like Fall, except all the leaves were new green leaves!
In other news, we had a platter of fresh sliced squash, carrots and even a couple of sliced radishes with our supper last night...dipped it in blue cheese.
Great!
MIL is still here...will check in when I can.
How wonderful!! I really should get one of those...
Heh...yeah, I guess. :)
I figured if a rabbit didn't have enough gumption to knock over an unanchored coil of screening, it'd just stop at the fence.
Guess I was wrong.
