Technically you're not supposed to let cats in/out since it's hazardous to both them and the wildlife but there is almost no more wildlife in suburbia that I have observed and honestly speaking most cars don't come this far back in the development.

I am deciding whether I want to give up on the romance novel I picked up this week or to endeavour on ( Read more... )

Otherwise, it is very quiet, so I've been switching around with watching an anaconda documentary and cleaning.

I am halfway through it, but waiting until my pot of water boils before continuing. I took the opportunity to take some painkiller for my achey knee & decide how much I liked a memoir.

I decided yes, okay, it was all right. The book I put ( Read more... )

I actually don't know what I am doing. I guess I am walking the unwanted books I had in my room over to the "Little Free Library" down the road, after finishing my tea.

What kind of law? Leave-me-alone-plz-right-now law? I don't understand why some people won't leave others alone when they are not doing anything wrong! It baffles, concerns & upsets ( Read more... )

What a troublesome journey.

I tend to pick out the "Critically Endangered" species though I was told that any specimen from my reference material would do since there is so little detail for anyone to get an idea of what to look for that it would be nice to see anything at all about anything.

I will eventually come back to Nihao Maomi once better. I just haven't been feeling ( Read more... )

ARGH.

It almost makes me want to wait for my [book] delivery instead.

I mean, it's not so hard to add a blip of space and then take it out after I'm finished counting...

Right??

Still.

Then again, I don't even need the incentive to write.

...right?

It was the older one, Matilda.

Regarding my novel: I have thought about it a great deal, and looked at the tabs which are assigned to it a great deal, but have not written anything.

I thought of the tool Written? Kitten! though. I don't know if it will work with 100 Chinese words. That's an easy experiment though, since I already have more than ( Read more... )

Everyone, it is hard to compose a story in a language that is so different from your native one. I don't even know for sure if everything's grammatically accurate so far.

It is also hard to compose a story entirely in one's native language, but the challenges are somewhat different.

I reasoned to myself, the only way to learn the art of writing is ( Read more... )

Also, although I have not written the "quota" of words "per diem" for my novel, at least I have written a few, as of three days ago. (Those are the first two tabs in this browser.) The screen has blanked out so my work may have gone to waste. OK NO IT DIDN'T /relief

I still can't get some Katamari Damacy music out of my head. It is catchy but is ( Read more... )

So, um...

Come to Pennsylvania!

We've got soft pretzels and cheesesteaks. If you're one of those.

Also!

Historically, Benjamin Franklin came from Philadelphia! Scanning the Wiki, it looks like my book about him that I got when I was sixteen did not deliver much detail about him... For example, while he was away from Philly in England his wife (who ( Read more... )
