Oh that one. Um...Not really. Probably something like Psycho Chick probably. I'll figure that out soon... And if you two can figure out a good title before I can, I'll use that one.
It's 10 minutes to 5 and I'm being teased here. *pouts* But it's a good thing considering I'm terrified my computer might die on me again. That would suck considering the hard drive is as old as my GA account.
Welcome to all those who have joined while I wasn't looking! Don't mind the rather random and slightly insane posts scattered around, mostly from me. Have fun. Post, lurk or cackle with the rest of us.
That's basically what I did. I lost all of my links, chapters for one of my stories that is now on hiatus until I can rewrite the chapters, and my other important files when my hard drive died. It sucked big.
Oh yeah. It's certainly made my life easier to be able to read what I'm about to say. It's saved me a few times. I have this really bad habit of just saying what's on my mind and I tend to tick people off when I do that. I find it a bit funny really, but it's true.
But, push comes to shove, I'll take IMing over texting, and texting over phone calls.
Start celebrating, it went through.
As to your make whole phrases verbs, um...I suppose so. I don't really know. And isn't that pathetic?
Oh, something else I'm celebrating. The fact that I can see the smilies in their full glory!! *cackles* Sometimes, dial up sucks.
Na uh!! I'm just surprised at the rate that I'm wracking up post counts... *innocent look*
Yay! You submitted it! Wait...I knew that. I blame the lack of coffee for those words...
And title? Which title? For my summer anthology submission? Um....*smokes come out of ears* *falls over* *foot twitches* No? Not a one. Something along the line of 'My Goodbyes' or something.
And now, now I'm celebrating that I got my computer to like me and actually work for me. Yays!
I can live without my phone, and have been doing so for the past two weeks, but I can't live without my IM. I once went a week without my computer and IM services. I snarled at everyone.
Like I said, can live without the phone, not my IM. It's just easier in the long run for me to type things out then it is to say it or to text it. Or at least for me.
And you would know that quite well, now wouldn't you, dear?
But once more, welcome. And don't mind the slightly insane posts you'll run across on occasion. Forgot to mention those....
I was wondering if some one was going to catch that or not.
Most people are so used to using euphemisms that when reading or hearing something, they don't catch it until they actively look for it. In fact, I'm surprised others haven't commented on it.
Though, yes, my grandparents, friend and uncle have all died, so that part is true, people.
Your welcome dear. And good luck with your works. It's a lot of fun doing research, since you also learn quite a bit.
The book actually sounds very fasinating and I can't wait to be able to read it. I hope you find the help you need here. I've discovered that finding a beta reader here was the easiest and the best move I could have done. They have helped me with my stories, including two that have yet to be posted yet, seeing as they are still in the planning stages.
Once more, I wish you the best of luck with your stories.
Oh my god! He did that!? How could he? The utter jerk. Did you do anything to him? Smack him up side the head? Chew him out? Hang up on him?
Tell me? Please?
Oh and that sucks big.
It's pathetic the way people dance around death. I've lost my grandparents, my best friend and an uncle and everytime some one used an euphemism, it just confused me. I have a habit of snickering at the euphemisms that are used in stories. I don't care how serious the scene is, when there's a euphemism in it, I have to snicker.
And I agree with Garys point and all other points that are connected to his...
One: Burssel sprouts are trying to take over the world with the bunnies.
Two: I can do no ginger. I don't do the ginger peach tea all that often.
Three: The only time I ever touch an avacado is when I want to smear the sucker on a cracker. I don't do Guacamole.
And if I want Gamey, I'll stick with deer jerky.
Eh, I don't eat snake anymore. People freak about it. That and it's a bit gamey.
Anyways, I would love to finally meet you face to face to. I'll buy something nice for dinner and make some good tea for ya.
Hey, I'm a country girl. Most country girls know how to cook. That and the marinades were created out of the fact that my mom can't really have a lot of red or salts, so premade marinades are out. If you ever find yourself near by, drop me a line and come to dinner.
With the ginger peach, the ginger isn't very noticeable.
Anyways, grab the Celestial Seasonings Red Safari Spice, add clover honey, and some white wine vinager together. Mix and use on steak or pork.
Or try Celestial Seasonings Madagascar Vanilla Red, add the sweetest honey you can find, some red wine vinager and a bit of pepper, not much mind you. Use on chicken.
Or Mango Passionfruit or just regular peach. Use the same mix for the ginger peach tea.
For me, I may not look like I'm not listening, because I'm doing something or have a spaced out look on my face, but I am.
I do listen to whatever they say. You never know what you'll learn from the little things. I just don't look like I am, because of my mind. To focus, I need to do something mundane. Anyways, I do listen and I do believe it is important to listen to the little things.
Ginger peach tea actually. You make a regular strength cup, add some honey, a bit of red wine vinager, mix well, let cool and use on pork or chicken. Barbacue.
I'm starting to like this one. Thanks dear. Pop into the editors section. There should be a pinned thread about who is an official beta reader and how to get one.
