In all seriousness, though, my eldest brother was born in '69... He'll be 50 next November, and I could never think of him as old... Don't think of my mum as old, either, she was born in 1960. (She is not my brother's mother, or she would have been 9 when he was born, which, ew.) And my dad would have been '70 this year. Hard to think of anyone as old who isn't, well, my grandmother's age.

Pinball was 60's and 70's Well my mom worked bars when I was young and I remember one in particular. since I could be there until 7pm (no under 21 after then) instead of paying a sitter she would have me walk from school to the bar and I'd play pinball for hours with quarters from the till (the bar owned the machine so it went back to them) or the old men there drinking in the early afternoon would give me coins. This is when I was 6 and 7 lol 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thorn Wilde Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 Time for bed, I think. My brother is coming by tomorrow at 1 to drop off my Christmas present (which he forgot at home on the kitchen counter when we met up on Christmas Eve to hand over gifts), and it's already nearly 5, so... Need to get some sleep before then. Goodnight, DiC! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The outline now has 53 chapters, and it'll probably clock in at well over 100k words... No battle plan survives contact with the enemy.

I'm not a poet but I enjoy reading it from time to time. I've spent the last couple hours on here, reading up on how to be evil again so I can write a good plot for a project I have my sights set on, putting some work on another story and thinking to myself how Andrew Luck could be a pretty sexy furry boy given the chance... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
