Re-awakening

[osirus]

After finally finishing my novel and then getting some unexpected bad news at the end of November, I went into a bit of a creative torpor. That's acceptable for two weeks or so, but I find I'm just not happy if my mind isn't working. Which is not to say I want to leap back into another NaNoWriMo (likely never again) or go edit my next book (necessary but unappealing), but rather that I want to get back in the swing of little silly writings.

So, here I am, posting on this little silly journal. And telling you that my latest little silly column is up, and I've updated my little silly blog, and that I'm hoping to do a bit of collaboration in the coming weeks to write some other little silly things with other little silly people who I've been meaning to write things with.

(Note to grammar geeks: I was considering using whom in that last sentence, but I realized I was already ending with a preposition, so I didn't bother.)

So it was premeditated instead of negligent. THAT'S a big improvement.

You're going to DC soon? I'll be there 12/22-12/29 - any chance we could go have a delicious and economical Starbucks Cinnamon Bomb?

The column was very very silly. I loved it.

Your mother's freezer sounds very much like my mother's freezer, with the exception that the oldest stuff is probably not from a Bar Mitzvah. For reasons which should be obvious.*

After reading your LJ post, I wandered over and read your column (which was quite funny =) and then your blog, and from there I wandered around RisingPun.com and happened to stumble upon the OEDILF, which I thought was such an excellent idea that I registered and have already submitted two limericks. (can you tell I had some time to kill? my students were taking a test.) They're not my best, I don't think, but they're decent for having spent all of twenty minutes writing them (if I do say so myself). Anyway. Just thought you'd want to know. (=

The last line of your column almost killed me with laughing. I can't believe I didn't see that coming!

HA!!!! "Cats, on the other hand, are more like "Man's Acquaintance Who Hangs Around When They Feel Like It If They Think You'll Do What They Want." (If that nickname is too long, you can call them "Women.")"

This made me laugh out loud, hard! thank you. :)
