randomness and a rec

[vaznetti]

Among the things that make vaznetti happy, the following may be found:

• the fact that her car started this afternoon, despite the weather and the fact that she hasn't used it for two weeks;
• the lamb chops she's thinking of cooking for dinner, unless she decides on eggs and bacon instead, because being able to eat breakfast for dinner is one of the best

the lamb chops she's thinking of cooking for dinner, unless she decides on eggs and bacon instead, because being able to eat breakfast for dinner is one of the best things ever about being a grown up;

Soooooooo true. I actually think I eat breakfast more than any other meal.

[vaznetti]

I remember how awed I was in grad school when friend mentioned it -- I was all, you can do that? But it's tasty, fast and nutritious. Well, low on green vegetables, I admit, but you can't have everything.

[muridae_x]

It's always possible to eat the green vegetables at lunch instead, after all.

[vaznetti]

Hm. Yes, I guess. Do apples and bananas count? or are they excluded on the "fruits and not actually green" rubric?

Excellent all round, and huzzahs especially for the car! I had to click out of the story and save the last two seasons for later, though, because I find it's hitting a bit of a nerve. Food first! (I laugh and laugh because I had bacon and eggs for dinner last night. Food of the gods.)

(And because I'm curious: do you find that taking notes/rafting in longhand affects the writing process one way or another?)

[vaznetti]

I just have an irrational fear of my car. Irrational.

And yes, the story is sad, but bacon and eggs are in fact the food of the gods, I agree completely.

And because I'm curious: do you find that taking notes/rafting in longhand affects the writing process one way or another?

Well, it means that I write. I have to compose in longhand, actually, because I can almost never make up a story as I type. Plus, it means that I write something kind of rough, and then revise it as I type it up. Things that I write longhand don't entail th same kind of pressure.

Also, typing means I'm on the computer, which allows me to distract myself too easily.

Ooooh, lamb chops or bacon and eggs. Tough choice!

[vaznetti]

I went for the lamb chops, and they were indeed yummy.

all the really interesting posts still coming out of last week's Supernatural, which I should do a big linking post to someday.

Actually, this would be great. I've had a hellish few days and haven't had a chance to read any meta on it, but it was a very 'thinky' episode so I'd love to catch up. If it's not too much work.

I've had time to skim them, but not comment or really do any thinking myself -- I'll put together a post this evening, after work.
