* A quick, flisty update. Took kidling back down the hill today to see the GP and the look on his face when he peered insider her throat was not good. He was visibly disappointed and concerned. Said some folks just don't "rally" as quickly as others with mono. She's on pain killers now....and the flist probably remembers my own dark wrestling with that myself before my surgery last spring....I'm not happy but she needs something to get relief so she can swallow and eat. She's one sick kiddo. And she's been put on another week of bed rest. It's concerning and...
* And its pulling me out of my headspace. *shrug* But Life happens and so it goes. I'm worried and that stress is making me twitchy....so I'm reading instead of writing and tomorrow am dedicating to doll pix.
* "Signing the Body Poetic" is currently in rotation and I'm humbled and somewhat stunned. Things are becoming more and more clear for me regarding ASL and signing in general. We, as a human species evolving, need to augment, improve, add to our linguistic uniqueness with sign. The astonishing and amazing and validating resurgence in this intuitive language after the oppressive oralism of the past one hundred years is beyond thrilling. It. Just. Makes. Sense. Here's a Whitman quote that opens this astonishing book about the Art of Sign Language.
A song of the rolling earth, and of words according,
Were you thinking that those were the words, those upright lines?
those curves, angles, dots?
No, those are not the words, the substantial words are in the ground
and sea,
They are in the air, they are in you. Were you thinking that those were the words, those delicious sounds
out of your friends' mouths?
No, the real words are more delicious than they. Human bodies are words, myriads of words,
(In the best poems re-appears the body, man's or woman's,
well-shaped, natural, gay,
Every part able, active, receptive, without shame or the need of shame.)
Wow!!!
* Last night's brilliant Supernatural episode had me grinning like a monkey on crack. It was fantabulous!!!
* It's been raining for two days and that's making me happy, too.

*work was actually bearable today, though I am utterly sick of the fact my coworker cannot discuss anything other than pregnancy, children, children playing sports, sports, television. It is so painfully obvious my life is black to their white -__-
*King's new book comes out soon ^____^
*I really need more time to write. I have to fix pretty much all of my Wick stories, I've got to finish another novella for the serial stuff, and I've got three short stories IP, not to mention all the other shit I should be doing. I so cannot wait 'til we can afford to hire other writers.
*Though, speaking of that, Sammie and Sasha need to write more too, cause there stuff is all shiny ^__^ I've read the sequel to the story Sasha has running on LT3 now :D and I know a bit about the third, and I know what she's working on now hahahaha but she's in the living room slacking off :3
*It needs to be the weekend, alas, I have one more day of work to get through
*In a couple of weeks, I get to go fetch my littlest sister from school and she is going to hang out with me for a week \o/
*And in a couple of months, I get to go home to hang with my family ^___^
*Hope all nano'ers are going strong ^ __^ Keep it up!!!
*Would anyone want snippets of the stuff I'm working on? I don't recall which things I've posted and which I have not, but if peeps want, I'll post. People are much quieter now that stories are not regularly here, and that makes me sadface, cause I liked chatting and harassing peeps, but I suppose that is the way it goes ^_^ Still, if snippets are wanted, I'll post'em.
*Guess I should stop with the slacking myself now.
*oh, yeah. we had tasty chinese for dinner, and I bought some tasty woodchuck cider that is apparently limited release or something shiny.
*Okay, going now.

Eldest has been diagnosed with mono. It's shifting what I'm doing on the homefront and will likely keep me busy for the next two weeks. Just an update.

I really am tired of repeating myself. I know people miss stuff, I know people do not pay attention, but I am literally answering the same two questions every week. So:
*I will finish Meant to Be after I rewrite Kidnapped.
*All my stories go straight to LT3 now. I cannot run a business if I post them all here for free. I am sorry this makes people hate me, I'm sorry it makes people cranky, but to be perfectly honest, you're not entitled to anything and have no right to be upset when it's taken away.
I really am sorry if I sound like a raging bitch. I try not to be, but I do get tired of repeating myself and I am really tired of people trying to make me feel guilty over selling my work instead of giving it away. I have posted stuff free for years. I'm not saying I'm the world's best writer - far from it - but I think I'm good enough to ask for a little bit of money. I don't expect everyone to agree with me, but I do expect you to be an adult and accept my decision is made.
Peace out.
