Oh, cut the bleeding heart crap, will ya? We've all got our switches, lights, and knobs to deal with, Striker.
i'm in a pretty crappy mood. i'm trying to snap out of it, but i'm not having much success. i will say, i felt pretty happy when i put on my new coat this morning. it's not really gortex, cuz those coats are really expensive. it's not for the snow, it's for everyday misty seattle winter crap. but i like it. yesterday was a very blustery day, which i enjoyed, the likes kept flickering and i am sure there are fallen tree branches everywhere this morning. but i tried on my new coat and it was THE PERFECT COAT for the day. so it was a good choice.
however, even the perfect coat cannot improve my mood. i had a bad writing weekend. and it put pinpricks in my fragile faith balloon. and it's not even november 1st. maybe i'm trying too hard. maybe because each of the three things i tried were not in my voice. [outline, synopsis, and jacket blurb] i don't know. i'll pass on the actual outline. it's in my head. so is the synopsis, btw. it was an excellent little synopsis. but it won't come out of my brain. and i think i am having the same trouble with the blurb as i do with my technical/professional writing. the minute i try to write with someone else's style guide, i freeze up. it's no wonder i spent more of my time working on web projects and drawing monkeys.
speaking of web projects, there is a new, updated, list of überblogs over to the left. i've added kam, who has yet to name her blog. she is out of town, but i expect great things from her. and lonnie, who, like the super genius he is, has already posted to it. that's why we love lonnie. also, i've added wicked's blog under øtherblog's. wicked is part of my nanowrimo writing group, SGNMFOS. which, again, i'll explain what that stands for, when i complete the graphic. anyway, we had a nice time chatting on saturday evening. mostly about me, and stuff i've done. wheeee!
i think i'm going to need macaroni and cheese from whole foods hot food dept. for lunch. it's that kind of day. and a jamba juice.
see ya!
