elfsIn no particular order.
I'm fighting a head cold. So far it has manifested as a sore throat, but this evening my allergies kicked on and no amount of drugs seems to be holding back the tide. My sinuses are clogged and I feel awful.
I wrote another 2,400 words in the past two days, completing episode two of a five episode Journal Entry arc. Omaha's right; I'm in a rut. It's not my best work, but at least I'm writing again. I also wrote the first 800 words of a Valentine's Day Special Episode (but not a "very special episode"), which was mostly sparked by some amusing dialog with a friend of mine.
Omaha and I were discussing this picture of George W. Bush on inauguration day, and the feelings he must have been having knowing he was going to go down as a tragic president, one of the worst, and that he was about to stand on stage and face the rebuke of the American people and his successor. Kouryou-chan asked if we thought he was such a bad president, and Omaha and I agreed that yes, more or less, he was certainly one of the most incompetent and fundamentally wrong-headed men to hold that office, and that most Americans agreed with this assessment. "And yet," Kouryou-chan said, fluttering her eyelashes with innocence, "I can't help but feel a pang of pity for him."
Okay, who raised this kid?
