On a completely unrelated note: over the past week, three different people have told me to stop leaving my purse on the floor, because my money will "run away." And when I've said "Oh, nonsense, I've been saving like mad, and my money's been fine," they've all had the exact same response: "At least if you put your purse higher, it'll give you a fighting chance." Thanks, but I'm fighting for rational thought instead.
On a completely unrelated note, you aren't by chance doing National Novel Writing Month this year, are you?
ReplyDelete- Gall
No. How does one 'do' National Novel Writing Month, anyway? Write a novel? Or sit around appreciating other people's novel-writing?
ReplyDeleteIt's a "contest" where you write a 50 thousand word novel in the month of November. Over a 100,000 participants, so, monkey's typing Hamlet and all that sort of thing. Thought it might be the kind of thing you'd dig. http://www.nanowrimo.org
ReplyDeleteGood gravy -- sounds like a living hell, or fantastically awesome. If only I didn't have a full-time job, or sanity, I'd totally do this NaNoWriMo thingie. Are you trying it yourself?
ReplyDeleteI only ever have one of those things at a given time, so that's a 'hell yeah I am.' It took me by complete surprise when last night, after blindly racking up 10 pages over the last few days, a title, theme, plot, and 11th hour, chapter 15 twist just spontaneously emerged.
ReplyDeleteWhen do we get to read your magnum opus?
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, why did Hilary switch hands with Obama? She's literally wearing his appendages while he sports the knuckles of someone who is so obviously not black! This is too funny, too funny...
ReplyDeleteFunny thing -- I'd never noticed that until you pointed it out. Huh. Just some lazy animating, I guess...or maybe it's to show that Hilary is literally Obama's right-hand man, to the point of also being his left-hand man. Er, woman.
ReplyDeleteWhatevs, you know what I mean.
