Too true, Deb. I just think he admires it. Doesn't mean he should have it.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
My husband is shimming the Billy. He just asked me if JP and Bree shop there, just for fun. I said maybe, but I bet he gets convenient exacerbations whenever heavy shit has to be moved. And I bet she mutters to herself.
Must build extensions.

The Continuing Story of Connie Cleaning Out Her Books
Anne, the book went out today, should be there by Wednesday.
New book up for grabs--"The Writer's Complete Crime Reference Book", by Martin Roth. Types of crimes, types of weapons, police work from local to international, how gangs operate, etc. Most of this information is probably as easily found and more current on the Internet, but here's a book if you'd like.

What is even happening?

My email is overloaded with all sorts of stuff I neglected to delete this week--mostly lj updates. I want to make sure I read all you've sent, and read it in order.

To give you a marker, the last bit I can find that I've received is from the 25th of June and includes the knee. :)

Cindy, I've added a bit, but since I'm actually working on the next chapter, might as well wait for the next bit. The additions are all to the, er, knee, and are subtle, and made at the request of a couple of my male WIP readers who let me know a bit about what it's actually like to be at the receiving end of the, er, knee, rather than the business end. They're small changes, but fun.
BTW, if anyone's interested in the murder weapon, it gets made because Vinny the Victim held up one really gaudy guitar and told the luthier, top that.
Someday I really need to try out a PRS guitar. They don't draw me, usually.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I'm not sure I have those latest changes, Deb. I have the second pass. Is there more, since?
That's...some guitar.

Noisy, isn't it? I mean, it probably plays like a dream if you like PRS guitars, but it's so damned gaudy, it makes my teeth hurt.
Bev, I'm most of the way through the first half of Chapter Two, will likely finish it tonight, and send it on. But I'm having a really bad MS day, everything hurts, legs and hands are both shaking, and I'm being bundled into the car for a sedate drive.

Enjoy your drive. I'll take the rest of it whenever you get to it. No hurry. Feel better.

All best, internet spouse. CG really has taken to calling you my missus. Such a Buffista spirit baby. Looking forward to reading the latest, but I'm a mimic. All of my folks will sound like Brits if I read it now...my first piece of feedback on the new pages will be "Who the hell is Gordon Bennett?" :) It's hard enough to switch gears back from writing e-mail to Fay to writing to somebody else...I once e-mailed somebody at the ILC that I knew sod-all about something once and found out they knew sod-all about "sod-all".

BWAH! It's odd that I never asked anyone in my world who uses or used it for its provenance, but a friend recently suggested it's CRS for "gogdamnit!" - Gordon Bennett being a passable rhyme. But the original used it on a regular basis, and having remembered that, it's found its way back into my lexicon, or rather, into JP's lexicon.
edit: aha. Not that, after all: the rhyming slang is for "gorblimey!"
