Yeah, I could do that, but I'm paralyzed with not caring very much.

Awesomeness. Thanks, y'all.

BTW if the challenge I posted is not awesome, anyone is free to make up their own.

Because books.

MM, it sounds like fun. And go you with the pages! I have no customer service tales, sadly.

Food & Emotions (i.e. Minestrone Love, Rage & Donuts -- that sort of thing)

I like this challenge. I'm still thinking about it, though.

It's just ... kind of hot to think about food too closely.

Other possible drabble prompt: Green.

Green worked for me.

On the Beach

Grass, short and stubby, pricks the bottom of my feet. It’s warm and smells of summer, along with the salt air wafting from the cove. I look for a good place to lay my blanket, one where shadows won’t make lines in my tan. This place is better than the shore; no sand to get stuck to my skin. The surf whispers, a gentle susurrus unhampered by the sound of slow moving traffic on the street. There’s a nice breeze on the cliff, the grass under me growing cool beneath the shade of the blanket. I like my beach green.

Please to excuse obsessiveness. Will only last for a few days, most likely.

To date: I've broken up what I've written into the Introduction, and two essays regarding describing CS reps and customers and why "The customer is always right" sucks major ass. This makes a total of fifteen whole pages!!

Which, now I say it, sounds a little pathetic. But, hey...it's only been a couple days, right? RIGHT?!

Allyson, if you read this thread...damn, woman, more power to you for finishing your book and not completely losing your mind. You are an inspiration.

Always Anti-fascist!

I wrote a book too. It blows and nobody can stand to read all of it, but I put the insipid, derivative Raymond-Chandler-bit-my-sisterness of it on paper, damn it. Yay? Still thinking about the challenge thing.
