I somehow don’t think that will work. Happy 4th all. I’m getting ready to leave for my cousin’s wedding. Interesting weekend to have it.

Do you think we can figure out a way to blame those evil pencils for the laundry not being done, the dinner that went uncooked, dirty floors…
Happy 4th everyone.

I think computers are as evil as pencils- they like to crash or be REALLLLLLLY slow when you are on a deadline. They have a mind of their own and they like to torture us. lol
Posted on July 4th, 2009 at 12:45 pmHappy Fourth of July!!
Hopefully you take some time off from the deadline to relax and light some sparklers! (sparklers are the only thing I get to light because I am a bit clumsy… haha)

On another blog someone posted a cartoon from the Achewood website dated June 30 about writing a romance. Pretty cute. All the writers in the group commiserated. Almost done IG & picked up DP today.Too bad life gets in the way of reading or I’d be done both by now.
