Gee, since so many people are awaiting the input on dad, maybe I should post it tomorrow instead of Thursday. I have my story for the Carlos Hazday tribute done, drafts of Madeline's story through chapter 2. I guess I can speed things up a tad.
Very visual chapter. I almost felt like I was flying too. It's good that mom put her fears aside and tried some things that were initially uncomfortable for her. I'm not sure I'd do the coaster or zip line at this point in my life, but it did sound like a lot of fun.
I just hope the next afternoon isn't some boring museum. I was probably the first person ever to spend less than a half-hour in the Louvre and think that was even too long.
Agreed on the better now than later. It would be quite difficult for Peter as well.
Daddy won't be gay, and you'll get a glimpse of his attitude in the next chapter before he disappears forever (in the story, not killing him off).
Twist good, shitty bad. Although in his defense, breaking it off sooner rather than later was probably better. Aaron, yeah. He could have handled it better.
I like it when my twists are unexpected. To be honest, when I started the story, after indicating in the original's epilogue that Avery had seven grandchildren, I didn't envision any being gay.
Well, it's mostly because I'm writing now and it's still prevalent. If I wrote what I thought/hoped the future would really look like, it might be more tame.
At home, in public, either way, Rebecca would have thrown a fit.
Not promising at all.
Maybe if Aaron played some golden showers, it would have been easier for Peter to predict.
Yesterday it seemed to me
My life was nothing more than wasted time
But here today you've softly changed my mind
Baby, what a big surprise
Right before my very eyes

Since I didn't need to send any furniture from Texas, and I guess a television isn't really furniture, taking everything out of the Carlton's on Sunday didn't take very long. Aaron had an SUV, and everything was moved in two trips. I had sold my car before I left, the new owner picked it up Fr
I agree with @Bill W, A Christmas Carol with Alastair Sim. And Scrooged with Bill Murray. Love David Johannson as the ghost of Christmaa past. Feelin’ hot, hot, hot.
Oh, and Die Hard is a Christmas Action movie. It CAN be mote than one genre.
I prefer Wilsonland, but yeah, rarely smooth is pretty much my MO. There may be bumps along the way, but there’s usually a mostly HEA in the end. Unlike the real world. Will that be the case here? There are still a few chapters left before that answer arrives. Targeting Christmas day or eve for the finale.
Thanks.
Yes, he definitely found someone. Liking someone can be fleeting. Even love can be rescinded for all the wrong reasons.
Never being back in Texas: Foreshadowing? Me? Never!
Oh, wait. I did some foreshadowing right here in this response. But you’ll all have to wait until Monday to see what that’s about!
I implied he told Rebecca in a previous chapter:
Excited, she queried, "You got the job?"
"Not exactly, but my predictions got me another day in Miami. I'll be going back in tonight, tomorrow, and Friday morning at least, to monitor Natalie with them."
"That's awesome. I'll want to hear all about it."
Yeah, I was going to make him start on Sunday the first but then figured HR wouldn’t be there on a Sunday. I cheated rather than rewrote.
