Thankyou very much Bos and 10s.

It's not likely to become a long or regular thing - well, not for you, at least. For me it's been five years of him being seriously ill and I'm used to it and can handle it apart from when I can't.

I'm very good and calm in a crisis, as I usually blow of steam with a breakdown later. The problem with something that is in a constant state of crisis is that I don't get to do it.

I love how losing your pictures of Lightning is your primary concern. xD

Well, all of my good stories and important, irreplacable stuff is backed up on a USB drive.

...so why the hell haven't I backed up my picture collection?

And why haven't I started one for Liara T'Soni?

The more WIPs, the merrier, dude.

Who says you can't work on over 30 WIPs at the same time?

The part of me that immediately bounces to another idea as soon as something appealing flutters into my mind, like a cat pouncing after butterflies.

Cats and butterflies...no, stop thinking about that, brain! *slaps self*

OMG! It's a fairy. Quick catch it before some human flicks the switch on the laser pointer!

Now, let me talk about something more cheerful, like the fact that in addition to my zebra-print slanket, I now have a fleece blanket with a cat design all over it.

Step 3 into becoming a societal outcast.

Trying to pull lines from <-- that story for promo. It's possible I need to use fewer profanities in my writing. :mad:

It's only going to my head because you guys keep giving it to me. Every morning for the past three, at least, I've come in here with someone asking for me to whip them into writing.

Y'all gave me the power and I'm going to keep it!
:whip:



:popcorn:
We create our own monsters.


I equate cufflinks with a certain economic level.

Which is not the same level I equate most writers with. (And those that are, still aren't usually the kind of people that I could see owning cufflinks.)

:D
You, you American, you.:poke:

Yeah, cufflinks are for those rich hoity-toity types who are consumed by their air of importance. You know, like most male characters in a Jane Austen novel.

You, too. :poke:


Still no dishwasher. Got irate call from the installer about 5 min ago though because my road doesn't show up on his GPS. I offered to give him directions and he got more irate, because it didn't matter if he had directions, he needed it to be on his GPS.

Seriously, has technology turned us into morons? Don't answer that.
Is that a serious, "Don't answer that." or a "Don't bother cause I know what answer you folks will give me already." ?

'cause you know I really, really want to answer this question :evil

I love how losing your pictures of Lightning is your primary concern. xD

Who is lightning? (I'm totally into retro-games, I have DOSBox installed and I know how to use it.)

omg! Can I access that smibble cannon from inside the cave?! *makes plans* *hears God laughing*

Bettie! Welcome back, I must have missed or spaced out your return. A thousand apologies and a big hug.

I will be off for about an hour while I go to work. Boring day, nothing, absolutely nothing to do but hang here and work on WIP.

9.5 hours stuck in front of a computer. I want a huge Word Count today.

Stupid question Fen, but is the horse in your avvie the actual war horse?

That is my mare, who passed away a few years ago (thus the user title).

The war horse is a big pinto WB/TB/QH cross.

You can now! *drags cannon and net full of smibbles into cave*

:D

And what movie(s)?

Well. Damn.

By the way, I should probably mention that little one woke up without a fever, he is active, playing quietly and laughing occasionally at the TV. He is feeling much better. Still, will keep an eye on him, there is a nasty virus going around.

So, Cantina hugs cure toddler fevers. Keep that in mind.

Well. Damn.

mwah ha! mwah ha! ;) oh yes.... the cannon!

I think superhero movies. I am obsessed with the Avengers and all their subparts. I don't have the Avengers movie yet.... and I can watch Thor, Captain America, Iron Man II on Netflix.

I still have to see The Avengers. First, there is my Battle of Warsaw film to watch. It has English subs, so I'll actually follow the story this time ;)

Hiding from mountain trolls. Do you smell fish?
Speaking of new WIPS (I think we were vaguely on the subject), I pitched one to Mr String about a Die hard-type action novel where the protag is an old man.

For some reason that feels extremely original to me, and out of the box enough that Hollywood wouldn't dare touch it. Please tell me I'm wrong?

I think the moment you bought something called a "slanket" that was pretty much a done deal.


Same as if you'd bought a "snuggie."

*shudders*

Society don't know what it's missing. I'm awesome.


Ok, so me and Jos were talking about our new neighbourhood and all the good signs - kids playing together in the shared green spaces, no signs or what we'd call a 'bad family' anywhere.

So Jos turned to me and said 'Shit, hun, I think we're the bad family.'

I have to agree. A long-haired IT professional who makes seriously off-colour jokes and a WRITER, who lets face it, is the scum of the eart ;).
