*I* wasn't aware you could make any money on the internet anymore. With so much of it being free and all.
I mean...wait up Shuemais

I'm pretty sure the government filed a patent so nobody else can use it.

That's the "Shut up and give us your money" meme. An easily made mistake, though.

How about if I share my noodles? Ooh! I'll give you Haggis! He's almost potty trained.

Just fettuccini noodles with some chicken broth and butter. Nothing fancy. I got those skillet chicken broth packets and am trying to use them up.

Penne pasta, some tomato sauce, garlic, onion, thyme, basil, cilantro (for Haggis), a wee bit of Bratwurst (deskinned and reformed into meatballs), and I'll be having' things in an hour or so...

I refuse to say anything in case incriminating photographs of myself end up on the internet...That... is complicated. I would normally say that, yes, there is money to be made online, but after having numerous (long - very, very long) conversations with various creators, there are less opportunities these days than people assume there to be. I could be here all week highlighting the problems, but that shouldn't cause people to stop doing things - money isn't (for some of us, at least) the driving reason for creating anything. Different conversation, better suited elsewhere perhaps...

Hi Guys!
Ok, so I'm visiting my Mommy Dearest and I figured I'd use this time to pop on and troll everybody. Things are okay. There is a new job on the horizon and I'm ready to leave my current hell-hole. It seems their policy of lying to everybody just isn't working out so well. Hopefully I'll be at the new place in a few weeks. I hope to have internet in a week or so, depending on how things shape up. I'm writing but it's going slow because I don't have other writers to use as a benchmark for progress. I need that. I need to know what other people are doing so I can do it too. I'm a follower, I guess. I hope everybody is doing well. Hugs to all the ladies. I offer Bos, BW, Greg and all the men an awkward hug that makes them give a single, Bill Murray blink. You know, something that makes you say, "ummm..." and then slip away quietly. Oh, and I have a new batch of Dragon Tail Moisturizer and I can't wait to apply it to any said dragon's tail I can find. And I do miss my sparkles. Hope to be back soon! Ted |

double-dip: I have some new puppies in my basement and a whole bunch of new candy in my van. Does anybody know where I can pick up an ice cream truck cheap?

TED!!!
*runs past puppies and candy and tackle hugs Ted* I'm glad things seem to be looking up for you. You've been missed in here, my friend! Bri's sworn not to wear pants until you're back permanently so HURRY!

<pours self hefty shot after Ted's, ahem, "hug">
Unfriended and blocked some bozo on FB yesterday for posting inappropriate material to the news feed. Some people apparently have no sense of restraint. Honestly, I could have opened up FB at work and been in immediate trouble. Things do get monitored, you know... So, Ted - what's the new job prospect? |

Andrea! Dude, too long of a time. Been busy -- querying one job, writing another. The cycle continues.
