Okay–inspired by Kiss My Frog Kate (lovely woman!) I was going to write that Brutus/Cassius slashfic because, well, it would be a whole lot of fun! Alas, real life intruded–I got my galleys for ‘If I Must’ and OI! have my editors served me well in the past! It’s just so embarrassing pulling up my galleys and finding blue balloons (used to track changes in word) all over my paper… nothing says ‘Colossal Pain in the Ass’ more than an entire paper full of deleted ellipses and dashes–the surefire mark of the immature writer, I guess. (Or is it just my writing style? I don’t know… I’m not feeling enough kinship with Emily Dickinson on this piece to start arguing the punctuation as artistic right idea. Sometimes, yes. Absolutely. Sometimes, standard punctuation is just fine.)
Anyway, all of a sudden I was quivering-eyeball-deep in my galleys, and I realized “HOLY CARP! I WAS GOING TO BLOG TONIGHT!” And it’s BLOGTOBERFEST–which means that all of you probably have VOLUMES for me to catch up on… I’m SO BEHIND! A last minute stop at the grocery store didn’t help (okay–it took an hour. It was a full-out weekly trip, except I did it at nine-o’clock at night.) And there was a staff meeting today which…
Yeah. Okay. What can I say. Life got between me and the hot Shakespearian Manschmex. I’ll make it up to you all– I swear.
But first, I’ll leave you all with some more burning cuteness:
Bone Daddy fell asleep at six-o’clock last night. (Lucky goober–just sayin’!) This morning when he woke up (fully clothed!) he said, “I skipped my shower–I took a nap and slept until night.” Okay–it was cute. Maybe you had to be there?
And Ladybug… damn. She sat on my lap for twenty-minutes this evening and told me stories and asked for kisses. I’m hoping my picture loads–it’s sideways, but you can still see it. Damn, she’s beautiful.
And now that I’ve distracted you from my short post with my lovely three-year-old, I’m going back to editing until my eyeballs bleed. fun!
