I feel your pain...
I'm home recovering from surgery, so I also have time. Still, I didn't necessarily need to spend yesterday afternoon and evening on that site. Better to get it out of the way before I go back to work, though.
(59 tabs? That's hardcore... I follow links and then go back and back and then follow other links...) Wade. Q:Is it proper to eat cheeseburgers with your fingers? A:No, the fingers should be eaten separately. |

Down to 16 now.
My shoulders ache and my eyes are red and itchy. Seriously, they are. I need to go eat.

It was 8pm last night before I sat down to eat.
I had originally intended to eat at 6:30.

Heard Vonnegut's rules for writing fiction today.
(This seems to fit here. :-)
It was on an NPR station; I thought it was TOTN, but can't swear to it: http://www.wandering...ForWritingFiction Kurt Vonnegut - Eight rules for writing fiction Also - http://en.wikiquote....iki/Kurt_Vonnegut Listen. All great literature is about what a bummer it is to be a human being: Moby Dick, Huckleberry Finn, The Red Badge of Courage, the Iliad and the Odyssey, Crime and Punishment, the Bible and The Charge of the Light Brigade. Smart man. :-) Cheers, Scott. |
