I have a weird, must-write-scenes-in-order-they-appear thing.Ugh. Reached a point in the novella draft where everything is just dragging. I should skip ahead and write an exciting scene, but I can’t.
1. Many salespeople work on commission. Find out their name or buy the item from them. This is the right thing to do. No exceptions.2. A tiny, itty bit of niceness gets you way further than you think. Little effort, potentially big payoffs.3. Never make assumptions about intelligence based on what one does for a living. You be wrong and will seem like a douchebag.4. Buy clothes only if they fit you and make you feel good. If they don’t do both, they are not a bargain, no matter how deep the sale.5. Don’t charge something unless you can already pay for it right then. Exceptions are emergencies. New jeans are rarely emergencies.

Ow, ow, ow. I sat down on the floor during a meeting and made my bad hip loudly unhappy. And my painkillers amp me up too much to sleep.
I keep watching for a clown car and/on Shriner car to come tearing around a corner and knock over a pedestrian.There’s a kind-hearted joke somewhere in the line of razor scooters and Segways that tool around SLU from the Amazon headquarters.Chuck Palahniuk very briefly mentions, positively, teaching my CW class in Geek’s Guide.

Starting Monday, I get to go from 3.5 jobs plus writing to just 1.5 jobs plus writing! Until then, I get to do the 3.5 all weekend.
I can’t kick him out of the living room for drinking tea, but I sure want to.Holy crap. I swear my dad can SWALLOW his tea LOUDER than anyone I have ever encountered.
Sad to leave my shopgirl world at Macys, but I have gotten an offer I cannot proverbially refuse. Back to IT!
