It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

I've done that before with other words, deb. Totally understandable as far as I'm concerned. I went back and edited the drabble to put the hyphen in.

BWAH! I like "remove from your lexicon".

"Please revisit your politics," is my favorite, followed closely by "Add expletive for emphasis." Go ahead. Act surprised. Has anyone seen my muse? She seems to have pissed off.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
"Delete--no one cares" is one I could use from time to time.

Am writing. Am being Pain In The Arse Holy Martyr: not allowing myself to work on "London Calling" book three Kinkaid until I finish "Cruel Sister."
Damn it. At not quite 39,000 words, a bit over halfway.

Speaking of which, did I post those synopses here? I forget.
