That quote explains all of my first drafts. *G*
(Extra point to the person who can identify the singer of the song I quoted in my title.)
So...Yesterday, I went to renew my drivers license. Ugh. We won't talk about the 60 minute wait, or the fact that they only have 1 1/2 people to wait on the ginormous line -- though they had THREE people at the registration place that was empty. Go figure.
Anyway... when I finally got my turn, I did the little eye chart whoosie in the fancy-schmancy view master and, badda-boom... read them off like a champ.
I thought.
"Ma'am, there are three boxes of letters to read."
"No there aren't," I said. "There are only two. One in the middle and one on the right."
"Do you wear contacts?"
"No." Should I? "I've always had perfect vision."
She favors me with a pitying look. "You have a weak eye. You must, or you'd be able to see all three boxes."
**sigh**
I'm OLD.
But I still got my drivers license. Ha.
=================================
So Jen got back to me yesterday about the bit of "Queen and Assassin" (my NaNo Fantasy) that I sent to her.
She liked it! She really liked it!
Okay... it wasn't perfect, but I knew that already. And there's a lot of brainstorming work to be done (some of which she helped me with this morning -- God bless Instant Messaging), and she thinks it deserves to be much longer than I had planned. That, at least, shouldn't be a problem if you consider it was originally intended as a 20,000 word novella for an anthology submission and I'm 16,000 words in and nowhere near done, or even halfway.
So...
Good news is: She liked it. It has legs. Yay.
Bad news is: I have a LOT of work ahead of me.

Your Daily Dakota... Where could she be? AHA! She's eating the couch!
Bad dog! Get down!
Dakota says, "You must have been mistaken. I would never do something like that. I am innocent of all charges."
