I can't get that to make sense to me. It's early (I overslept and am still barely into first cup of coffee), so it's probably my brain not turned on yet. But - what does it mean, please?

It means I changed a sentence mid-stream, got distracted and never fixed it.

You're then wanting me to take it out of the context in which I'm writing it ("Hey! Wouldn't it be cool in Hawkeye and BJ could actually be together without having Peg die or divorce him?")

No, no, not necessarily; just that a few more paragraphs about her as a human being would completely bring her to life for me, and possibly make me wonder if she was a long-lost family member on my father's (American) side. That's why I wondered if this was a diary she was keeping, or a letter she was writing. if she's talking to someone, either another person in a letter or herself in a personal diary, that becomes very easy, as opposed to a narrator in the first person telling an audience.

Damn. That's incredibly muzzily phrased. More coffee, please.

(whew)

Not that she wanted to, of course. Get the guilt bonus, that was, but it was still slightly better than going out.

Make more sense?

yep.

Completely. Thankee.

So, umm... would anyone *mind* if I put a section that's insanely out of context up? I'm curious how it works for People Who Are Not Me.

Hum.

Hum.

It's a useful, indecsive noise. You're onto something intresting, but I think I'll have to give it some more thought. I thought that details like the sewing might help with that, but it could perhaps use some more. Part of the trouble is we-- viewers-- don't actually know a lot, so I'm into research about what would be normal at that time. Thinking needed.

I never mind when you post *anything.*

I'm cool with out of context, Plei. Since I do read some of the stuff in here that's spoilery and therefore out of context for me, it's not a big problem.
