I ended up being 59% Geek! Yay me! SO...why is it I still feel like I'm ten years behind the times????
Oh, well. I've almost finished the epilogue and Teaspoon still hasn't posted my last chapter that's been sitting there since Monday. I think I'm going for a record. Maybe I should ask everybody to gang up on Teaspoon and tell 'em that they're a fan and why the **** haven't they posted poor Bev's latest chapter? I think their trying to blackball me, that's it! Paranoid Bev has reared her ugly head, she's only allowed to post once a week, that's it! It's a conspiracy, I tell ya!...No, not good..OK, I'll tuck her back in, but she's biting the bit to seek Klingon vengence for being sooo dishonored....hope your week has gone better but as I see from the previous post, you had a trip to the dentist (dum, dum duuuummmm.)
I gave up on Dentists a long time ago. I've wasted so much money on teeth that are genetically pre-dispositioned to be bad, that I've given up on getting them fixed and just get them pulled. It's just not worth the time, effort or money to get root canals, crowns, fillings (will that be two sides or three we've filled today, dear?) Grrrrr! Can't wait to get down to the last tooth and then I can get false, shiney choppers that I can retire every night in their own seltzer bath...talking about night, I'm border-line babbling. It's now 1:20 am and I've got to toddle off to bed.....BTW, how's that new car purring, hmmmmm?
I don't know what's going on with your Teaspoon problems, but probably aggravating them won't help any. Sorry, I never got around to betaing for you on that one, I've just not been up for much of anything. Getting better though one day at a time.
The new car is doing great. My only peeve is that it has a 12 gallon gas tank. So even though the gas I do put in goes a lot further, I'm still having to fill up as often as I did with my 18 gallon gas tank. Still, it doesn't cost near as much each time so that's something.
That's alright, Hon! I was able to get it posted anyway and the Admin person was nice enough to just point out the obvious and I promptly corrected them. So it looks purdy now, all nice and neat, and I also just got done watching Fires of Pompei and it was great, too! This year is definitely not going to disappoint, that's for sure (At least I hope anyway, I could be speaking too soon, too.) I'm about to read 'Vortex Born' and will post a review ASAP! I'm so very glad your feeling better!
Thanks for asking! The epilogue is written but needs to be fleshed. The hard part (as you well know) is trying to make sure everything that you covered in the course of the story is taken care of/explained and it came out all logical and neat. Gracious, with everything I've been though over the last few weeks, it's a wonder I got anything written at all, but whether you realized it or not, you and NattieB really kept me focused and on track and God bless you for it.
Yeah, it took forever, but at least the end is near and I promise, not another multi-chapter story until I get better at writing, and I can't get better unless I write, so it's a heck of an irony. Maybe I just tackled to many too-heavy subjects in the stories I wrote. Maybe, one day when I'm better, I'll go back and retackle those stories and do like you did, rewriting them until they show that extra polish or pizzaz or whatever it is that shows you've really grown in your story telling. I still have to finish '.Com.,' then maybe I'll take a real break, but then again, I don't know what my brain will regurgitate. Look at me, I planned on writing a short response and I managed to make it 2 paragraphs. (Smacking forehead) I'm a writer, I can't escape my destiny! LOL!!!
