Debating on whether to offer for another while waiting. With my luck, I'd get assigned both, so. Hmm.
You got all kinds of learnin' and you made me look the fool without tryin', and yet here I am with a gun to your head. That's 'cause I got people with me. People who trust each other, who do for each other, and ain't always lookin' for the advantage.

I've been working on a song about the difference between analogy and metaphor.
My original false Yuletide assignment is now available as a pinch hit. I already have a pinch hit, so I'm not offering. But maybe I will do a stocking stuffer. Just 'cause.

Ahahahahah OH GOD, okay, I have a pinch hit. What was I thinking?
No, no, okay, I can totally do this. I already have the story planned out. I just have to sit down start typing as soon as I get home, that's all.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
I have two possible stocking stuffers earmarked. Just in case I feel like torturing myself some more.
Right now, I'm just trying to decide if the two dropped words are worth an email with "should be Blah blah AND blah" in it.

The good news is that my would-have-been beta readers gave me a sanity check read after posting (which is how the dropped words got noticed) and they all liked it and thought it worked.
It's... not my usual style at all. At all at all.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
I managed to completely forget about writing my yuletide story, and wrote it the day of, eleven hours before it was due, in an hour, and subsequently posted it.
I do not recommend such methods to others. Seriously, brain = explody.

It's probably not worth contacting the Yuletide mods for a comma, huh. Oh, well. Yuletide pinch hit uploaded.
I need to be dead now.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Yeah, okay. Thanks for that.
Aaaand suddenly I find myself feeling a surge of antipathy towards the WGA. Which is most unreasonable.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
I can't watch the video, but Fay, never take *anything* seriously that comes from Lee G*ldb*rg's blog.

Yeah. He's kind of known as a wanker. It's his only actual talent.
