OK. I got some decent pages written during lunch. Time to switch gears and get back to some code.

“We… we will stone you. We… we will stone you” Queen, decided these weren’t the lyrics they wanted. #music

“I picked up an extra suitcase. It’s my husband, Fred.” #writing #throwawayline

OK. The “landscape” duo is staring at me, in a glancing way. Maybe they are assassins. Or maybe they covet the iPad I’m using. #writing #character

What do the cool kids call hobos nowadays?

Wild thought. Do we really need an app to tell us how to split a bill two ways? Maybe we just need rudimentary math.

Observed: Two guys at the bar. One is thin Dwayne Johnson wannabe. The other is trying to pass for a redneck truck driver. They are too careless and agitated to make a good sniper team, but they would might a-go-of-it as landscapers. #writing #character

“You should take a vacation away from yourself.” #writing #insult

People don’t understand that I never “argue”. I block and mute, and report when necessary. In order to argue, you have to be human. Trolls be trolls.

‘You can’t all be right, if I’m wrong.” #writing #throwawayline

“Every time I see you, you seem older, and the older you get, the older you seem.” #writing

“The waves raced across the lake, trying to escape the obese woman who had disturbed their stillness by diving in.” #writing

“When the chips are down, eat the fries.” #writing #throwawayline

“I knew your father, when he was your mother.” #writing #throwawayline

Update on The Gathering. 3 of the 4 will enter a carrier for food. The 4th one, Spot, only shows up rarely. I tried the SPCA and Animal Welfare, but they don’t come out to deal with animals. Huh? So, I’m going to try to get them to a vet to spay/neuter/deflea, etc. #cats #delaware …

Anyone remember Omni magazine? I miss good glossy SF mags. #books #magazine.

“Son, life comes at you fast, like a semi barreling down on you, or a T1000 sent from the future. Lucky you, though. You’re a CSM-101.” #writing #throwawayline
