A time when the Great Big Light Bulb went off over your head? I want it to be something positive, not some moment when you realize you'd been dumb up till then but an authentic moment of unadulterated accomplishment. Everyone's bound to have one, even if they have to think about it.
Jeez, don't get all Movie of the Week. I was just too cheap to buy you a real present.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Connection?
That covers Connie's theme, and links it, possibly, to a thousand things. I'm thinking of the E.M. Forster version: "Only connect! Only connect!"
As in, the puzzle, the light bulb going off.

Connections could be good.(Should I put a kumquat in or not?) Deb, insent.

Mostly lurking...
Deb and erika, sorry I didn't get back to you yesterday. Thank you for your comments. I'm hoping to take another look at the piece later this afternoon.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Deb? Do you have something for me to beta?

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
"Only connect! Only connect!"
Been keeping this in mind--the idea, not the actual quote--as I delve deeper into the edits on "Nihilist Chic." Beginning to see deeper connections as I go, things I'm amazed I didn't see the first time.
I have forty pages left to make notes on. I have more than 200 notes already....

The ani-Munch snickered at "kumquat"...He really needs some more stuff to do.

I do. Sending.
erika, received. Will curl up with it later. Today is running away from me at warp speed, and I'm already edgy.

Ok...I imagine it'll take a while for me to fix it anyway. No hurry.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I am a dimwit! After asking for drabble suggestions, I chose one....in my brain. And forgot to post it. I am a Tep of Very Little Brain some days.
Anyway....the key paragraph challenge is now closed.
We're up to challenge #11, which is almost 3 months of weekly drabbles! I am SO pleased that people are still enjoying it!
I intend to use all the suggested challenges sooner or later, but since my moderator-ship is also a dictatorship, I'm making this week's challenge topic silence. Because, frankly, I have an idea for it, and I haven't been drabbling lately.
So there it is. Silence. Actual words are required in the drabble (Polter-Cow, I'm looking at YOU, baby). Go to it.
