That does tend to spice up an otherwise dull afternoon.

I'm gonna log out and let Moonie have the comp for a while. I need to be useful and fool with large pieces of art paper. PM me if you need me, I'll get it. (((HUGS)))

Afternoon all. I would have been here sooner but Skywise had to disassemble the computer and that took a bit of time. It was making odd noises. It's all better now. Otherwise I wouldn't be here and we would probably be on our way to the far northeast side of Indianapolis (the location of the nearest Apple Store) to get a new Mac!! I really want the van running and up to specs for that expedition. Having enough room to haul large electronics home -- not to mention building supplies, kitchen sinks and whatnot -- was one of the reasons I wanted a van!  Grin

Okay, the klutz has done it again. I was looking for something in my dresser drawer and I've managed to gash my little finger (left hand, underside, right across the knuckle joint) on a hard plastic package. Bleeding is underway but not heavy as yet. I'm going to go scrub it thoroughly, apply antibiotic and a bandage. I don't know how it is going to affect my typing. *sigh* And I didn't even find what I was looking for.....

Well, I scrubbed, slathered and bandaged my finger and so far so good. It doesn't hurt and I'm typing fairly well. No more typos than usual!  Grin  It was a "clean" slice, no jagged edges, so I'm expecting it to heal pretty quickly. And I still haven't found what I was looking for! And it can wait!  Grin
Thinking about it, all things considered. Life is pretty damn good right now. Skywise isn't real happy about having to work overtime but that will give us extra cash for the propane bill and since we aren't making car payments right now, we will recoup what we will need to take out of our savings in about four months. By the time we go to get the new computer, we will have enough saved to pay cash for it. There is no more than the usual uproar in progress and everyone on the whole is happy.
Life is good.

I have the bandage off and while my finger is a bit stiff and sore, it looks okay. It isn't TOO hard to type. The hardest part of the word processing I'm doing is not making the scene I'm writing TOO explicit. It would NOT do to get banned from my own forum!  Smiley I'll have to save it for the book....

I'm not entirely pleased with the "flow" of the section I'm working on but I keep reminding myself that this a "1st draft/outline" and not intended to be a polished draft to submit to a publisher!   Smiley I have one more post to write and then this section will be ready to go up. Come what may, I'm going to get this done tonight. I still have one more batch in this section (2700 to 2999) to do and then I can start on the next section which is, thanks be to all the Gods!, considerably shorter!  Smiley

There is a fire south of here and it must be bad. Two water tankers have gone by in the last 15 minutes and civilian vehicles with lights and sirens keep going by. Even with the rain we've had in the last week it is still dangerously dry out here.

Observation: The human capacity for hypocrisy takes my breath away although some people seem determined to set an unacceptably high standard for it.

Well, Friday the 13th has about 70 some minutes to go in my part of the world and I must say, it was a pretty good day. Of course, I have two black cats so "bad luck" doesn't normally come to call.  Smiley  And this is the 11,300 post for the forum and I'm pretty happy about that too.

Upon sober reflection, I am SO tired of jealous little high schoolers masquerading as adult women. I would do this ----->  Smiley for a while but they aren't worth the effort. And I know that it is too much to hope for that they would grow up. They are having too much fun and getting too much attention of the kind they like to ever change...

Since PD and I have been posting like mad all afternoon, I'm going to let Moonie have the computer. If you need me, PM. I'll get it.

Castle update:

Somewhere along the line -- SOON -- I have to write two, count 'en TWO, attempted seductions of the Darklord.  Smiley Women would NOT leave the poor man alone..... Plus some "set up" for the monster hunt and some odds and ends of characterization and I will be done with the current section.  Smiley

Then after the next batch (2500 to 2699) is done, I'll get back to work on the monster hunt.....

Poo! Heavy weather moving in. It should be here in a few hours -- 2 a.m. on through rush hour -- heavy rain, thunderstorms, chance of damage.... WONDERFUL NOT!!! Spirit has a dental appointment tomorrow and some sleep would be nice!

For the record, heavy thunderstorms scare me. There were too many times when I was growing up when I didn't know if the house was going to be there when the storm was over. That sort of thing kinda kills one's enjoyment of nature's power. That is my main reason for wanting to have an earth sheltered house!

Sanctuary Control. We have weather. I will be disappearing shortly and I'll be back when I can. Be safe everyone!


ETA: Okay. We ducked that one! But I am likely to disappear without warning so don't worry if I do. It is just a thunderstorm.

Incoming thunderstorms not withstanding, I'm finding a lot to be happy about today. Life is good, the worst is over and the cards keep promising me a miracle.
What more could I ask for, honestly?

We're back from our Saturday errands. Skywise is cutting the grass, I'm bouncing between the computer, the dishes and soon the laundry and the book I got today "Home Networking: The Missing Manual by Scott Lowe is calling my name.....
