Five Fun Ferryn Facts

[ferrynheit]

Okay, I don't actually know if they're any fun, but I like alliteration.

1. When I buy Tic Tacs, I eat the whole box in one sitting.

2. I keep a spatula on my desk. You never know when you'll need a spatula, right?

3. I collect fortune cookie fortunes that I find funny or weird. I've got a bunch of them taped to my monitor. Here's one: "If your

That's great! I have a Mousepad of Fortune at work. I often eat chinese at the cafeteria when they're serving something tasty. When I get back to my desk, I tape the fortune to my mouspad - nothing so zany as your fortunes, though.

As for your last fortune, perhaps it's meant to be read with the traditional ending attatched: Here we go. "Moo Shu Cereal" for breakfast with duck sauce in bed. Maybe it's telling you to take a day off to rest. :)

Yes! Another fortune collector. So do you tape the fortunes to the underside of the mousepad? Otherwise, that sounds like it would get in the way of the mouse's movement.

Oh, I forgot about the traditional ending! Oh, I've got a great one for that. "The mystical is not how the world is, but that it is." I wanted you to take that in first, and then you can add the "in bed." See how awesome that is? Or, here's one, with new ending attached: "You are the guiding star of his existence in bed." Or: "The best times of your life have not yet been lived in bed." :D

Well, I hopped over to NaNoWriMo last night. I see you've been there too. Got an idea yet?

Actually, yes. I think my main character is a muse. Imagine being bound to a specific human and not being able to talk to the world except through him/her and only in whispers so the human could avidly listen to what you say or pretend he/she doesn't hear it. Kinda frustrating - kinda funny. Maybe she can talk to other muses, too - a whole colony of people we don't even notice unless we choose to. Not sure about the time period or plot yet. Characters are the important part, and each muse is different

Ooh, sounds very interesting. I suppose, then, that a muse could live a very lonely life. Think of the muses who give their humans nothing but depressing material. You think that's because they feel so isolated and perhaps because half the time their human doesn't even listen to them? What if some muses didn't realize that other muses existed? Until they somehow bumped into one perhaps. But anyway, that's your idea, not mine. But I do find it fascinating.

As for myself, I have nothing so far. I've been going over my past attempts, trying to figure out where I went wrong and how I can improve. I need something completely different, but I'm not sure what I'm looking for yet. I guess my muse is silent at the moment. At just the worst time, of course! My muse has bad timing. I don't think he owns a watch. He's very confused and says things out of order. Poor guy. But I gotta give him credit for trying.

*Laughs* Maybe your muse will make it into my story and I'll tell you what he's been up to :)

Oh my gosh, my muse is going to famous! He'd be delighted, though he may not know how to express it.
