Wait, I thought the plans was develop superpowers, start fantastic circus, go forth and recruit cute musicians in eyeliner. Did I miss a memo again?

They're not babies, any more. They still are RIDICULOUS CUTE, though.
Seriously even cuter in person. They have been attempting to say my name recently, well, Jack has. I think Zoe thinks it's funnier to refuse to say it. So far the closest he's come (in my hearing) is 'Ssssssssssssaaaaaaaaaaaaaa'.

According to my librarian-schooled roommate, there are actually LoC categories for past life memoirs, and novels dictated by dead people. Because you're going to have to cross-list them somehow.
The things I could do, if only I took myself a little more seriously...because I do actually have regular conversations with my characters, but it never occurred to me to treat that as anything more than a quirk of my imagination.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Jilli, I thought the plan was start fantastic band and have a costume battle with MCR? With shrift as the tiny rhythm guitarist?

I'm good with either plan as long as it means I end up discussing eyeliner and the lack of good vampire novels with the elder Way brother. That is, when he isn't discussing the problems with painting goblins with Pete.

One of my online communities used to have a member who would talk about how Admiral Husband Kimmel (who commanded Pearl Harbor, btw) spoke to her on a regular basis. As I recall, he was concerned with how history remembered him....

Perish the thought.
Why not a band that is a circus? Or is that overkill?

Overkill? What is this "overkill" that you speak of? If the band is a circus, we have more excuses for flame pots. And making people wear makeup.

I just engage in snarking sessions with the Duke of Wellington during particularly onerous staff meetings.
Thing is, I know the Wellington in my head is just a construct of having read so much about the man, because if I was channeling the real thing, research would be so much easier! I could just ask him to fill in 90% of the vexing blanks in my WIP, since he was actually there.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Wah wah, I don't want to work any more today. Thing is, the work isn't done yet. And it's got to be done tomorrow.
But I've gotten a bunch done, and now it's dark and rainy out, and it just feels like no-more-working time!
