I've been furiously rewriting in my bedroom since 9am. I should probably venture downstairs to prove I'm alive to Para and Dys.
I knew you were alive. You were tweeting.

Also, I find it oddly fitting that our "going out" days are bright and sunny and our "must write!" days are gray and rainy.
Question for the Brits-In the U.S., a child who is really lively and mischievious can be described as "a handful." Is that just an American expression or would you use that too? Is there another one more common? I'm looking for an old-fashioned expression.
No, they'd be a handful in the UK too. Our puppy is a bit of a handful.
Totally just sent out a work email with the subject line "Avengers Assemble!"
Mornin' folk.
Yay Para and Justme!!!
the writing retreat/trip seems like so much fun.

Thank you, everyone! Now I want a coconut cupcake for breakfast.
Roll on Sunday and London! *bounces*
eta: I think at some point I'm going to try to hire Para to give a manuscript a check for proper English English.
I'm actually trying to talk the co-workers into going to see the Avengers on Monday as a team-building event. (There's a theater right across the street from work, and during the day, it's like $5) I will also be going to see it with the family at some point, but that may have to wait til the evening shows get a bit less insane.
As you wish
Had a weird morning. Alarm went off. I sat up and shifted so I was sitting on the edge of the bed willing myself to move and willing my eyes open. They opened just a crack and there was a small flicker of light. I was like "what's wrong with my eyes!" Getting up I opened the bedroom door and started down the stairs, eyes closed, I willed them open again and their was another flicker of light. Again I wondered what was wrong with my eyes. So I finished the trip down the stairs with my eyes closed and let Ink out of his kennel. At this point I opened my eyes again and there was a bright flash followed by thunder.
Um. Please use your powers for good and not evil, mkay?
This may be asking a lot of him...
