A Real Update
Or at least something along those lines...
Sunday night the Beau had to take some time to study for his physiology exam (which was Monday) and I decided to take that time to try to get some writing done. The words they were not a-flowin.' I tried to pick up the story from right after Ama's conversation with her Aunt Meery and it just felt so clunky. My initial idea was to get her out of the Library right quick. But then I figured that no, I should spend some time there since that's the place that spawned the idea in the first place!
The only bit of it that flowed well at all was when Ama ran into her sister and brother-by-marriage. The two of them had bits explaining something about the meal they were eating- and that was just fun. Really short scene so far- needs to be expanded. Part of me is just itching to get her out in the world and watch the fun. So maybe I'll just go ahead and start writing those bits and add the other stuff in later...
In other news... There's not much going on. Still trying to nail down the details for the wedding. It's unfortunate that the weekend is the only time the Beau and I can do things together (to even meet with people like caterers, etc.) and they fill up so quickly. I already have two Saturdays and a Sunday in August booked for family stuff. Speaking of which, I need to get a frame for the cross-stitch project I did for the Beau's sister...
Umm... the cats have been, well themselves. We have a new theory about Danger Boy! We've decided that His Nosiness is actually a representative from an alien race. They're interested in learning how humans work, ya see. They have watched for awhile and decided they needed more information and needed to be closer to people. However masquerading as a person could be a problem as they don't know enough. Then they saw cats- and it was good. They have several agents disguised as housecats, they come in, get into everything (curiosity killed the cat, satisfaction brought him back), watch us and learn about human behavior. This explains Leo's fascination with *everything* we do. We figure it also explains Sasha's dislike for Leo. She was the first spy and, well, went native, it was just too good being a cat. So they had to send Leo and she resents it. ;)
Yeah, I think we have too much time on our hands too.
