snerk.
I'm 100% West Indian. So there.
I'm a mutt. And mutts are less crazy than pure-breds. So there. Though pure-breds do have the sexy walks.
snerk to P-C and ita.
Not really here, just popping in to ask Steph - could we have a "last time" challenge (to bookend the "first time" one) eventually?
You betcha! It's been marked. I'm trying to use people's suggestions in the order that they were made, though probably nobody but me remembers who made suggestions when.
erika, I think you may be the first "white" person to ever say you're part Indian and not codify it, "on my mother's side." It's always the mother's side. I don't know why.
All the drum drabbles are great. Sadly, I got nothin'.
Susan, insent to the address you wanted.
Beverly, no shit, it is on my mother's side. My mother's father was Bayonne Indian College class of '38, which was a Very Big Deal in Muscogee in 1938(Maybe mom's blood makes it less "real" or something? Don't know.) Susan, my heritage twin!(on my mom's side, anyway) The tribe wanted so much money cause Grandpa's mom, Sallie, messed up when she filled out his birth certificate. She was, like, twentyand hadn't been asked to fill out many forms at that point in her life, despite having been to college. So the Muskegons say this and my mom says "Sallie's been dead since 1960. What can I do, dig her up?" I come by it honestly.
Anyone want to beta the first section of chapter one of "Burden of Memory"?
