Though not the "no cell phones, no internet, no reading" thing. *shudder* I'm glad it's working for you, though!

Because books.
They staff pretty tightly -- they have software that anticipates call volume, etc. So most of the time, when you're answering calls, you're busy enough not to have more than a minute or two of down time. Otherwise it could be pretty unbearable. :-)

Was just rereading the old threads and got very nostalgic for all the conversation that used to take place in here, and the drabbling.
I would love to start that up again, if people are interested. Tep, sj, erika, anyone?

Sure, if others get involved.

I could do some drabbling. That would probably be good for me.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I do drabble. You too, you do drabble, too.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
Would people be interested in/ok with poetry postings? I saw a keynote the other day by a graphic artist who felt uninspired and decided to create a skull a day for 365 days. He also decided that each one had to be different—made of different materials or with different techniques. He really got a lot out of it (including a book deal and a lot of new business). [link] Anyway, I was thinking that could be fun to do with writing, and I was considering doing a poem a day, with each one being a different poetry type. Not sure if there are 365 different poetic forms, but I ordered a book on them Friday, so I guess I'll find out.

That sounds wonderful!

I would love that! And yeah, everyone should join in!

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
I would love to get back into drabbling, and Calli, I would love to see the poetry thing. That sounds like a great idea.
