Happy Birthday, Nora!!!
Thanks to sarameg to coming out to see us on Saturday! It was really as hot as balls. I spent most of yesterday recovering and I'm really not over it yet. There are a couple of cute pictures of us up though: [link]
On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

So, it's a good thing that somebody I know saw me waiting for the bus - one of the roads on the route I take is closed due to flooding. I had no idea.

This weekend my DW pressed again for me to get 8 hours of sleep a night. However, I think she now gets my opposition to the idea of eight hours of sleep a night. I explained that with exercising in the morning, getting the kids ready for school, walking the kids to the bus stop, going to work, making dinner, cleaning up the kitchen, taking care of the kids and getting them to bed my day already has 15 1/2 hours accounted for. I need a little unaccounted time.

I'm still waiting for my super -- I really would have thought "first thing" would have been earlier!
Don't worry someday your super will come.

I have to say, when it's working-- when everything's firing on all cylinders and I so completely lose myself in the world and characters and dialogue to the point where I'm astounded that hours have passed without any knowledge or awareness on my part, there's no other feeling in the world. That combination of exhaustion and exhilaration in absolutely unbeatable.
That sounds awesome. I would like to do some hobby writing, I have ideas, but finding the time is problematic.

It's drizzling and overcast here. It's supposed to stop but just hasn't yet.
I hope things dry up for you sumi.

I think that's probably enough posts in a row.

“Not dead yet!”
ACK-- brain belch. I need a word. Something I can use in place of "initiative" as in "taking the initiative," usage.
Why yes, I have a Thesaurus, but the Buffistas are better than Roget's any day of the week.
