by real life. I have found it more interesting than writing for the first time in a long time. Oops. I have some loose ends I want to tie up before the end of the summer though. Still checking out my peeps online, I just don't have much to say here.

I have made the suddenly realization that I am sometimes what Oscar Leroy would refer to as a "jackass" (mind you he calls everyone this). The reason I suddenly heard his gruff old voice in my head was that I am currently reading three stories with OC's named "Kate".

Looking for inspiration in all the wrong places! Hopefully the beach will have some. And the house will also have the interwebz as promised. We shall see at the sea. By the sea by the sea...

I fell asleep, or was trying to, on an air mattress Friday night/early Saturday morning at a friend's house. A friend that is really supportive of my writing, even my fanfics.

I don't think I am the type of girl to be quoting Carrie Underwood, but here I go: "Sometimes that mountain that you're climbing is just a grain of sand".

I am torn. One side of me does not like all the changes LJ has gone though or their general selling out or their decision to censor their users or think they have a right to say what I should or ( Read more... )
