Really? It's June?
Okay, I haven't visited any of the other threads yet because I want to do so when I have some time and space to mentally move around, chat, and so on. So if I make my goal today of 2-3K - a big fight scene that has me worried; no idea how Jo will make it out alive - then I'll be back to play before nightfall.
Don't move the furniture while I'm gone.

You had to know it would be those two! I'll have an iced Limoncello tea waiting when you get back. It's my new favorite!

I hope it glows in the dark...so you can find it.

I don't know WHAT you're talking about T ... I didn't do anything *smiles innocently*

This mouse pad says it all... At least you'll be easy to see in the dark. Maybe we can make Smores!

Vic, you can do it. Jo will come out stronger than ever. Don't go writing yourself into corners!
So I enrolled in college yesterday. Can't get Billy Madison out of my head singing:
"Back to school. Back to school, to prove to Dad that I'm not a fool. I got my lunch packed up, my boots tied tight, I hope I don't get in a fight. Oh! Back to school... back to school... back to school. Well, here goes nothing."
If only I had some fresh boots. *sigh* I'm going back to get my Associate's, probably in Radiologic Technology. I just can't work at the bookstore forever. Not enough money. Legal stuff is starting to go through and... well.
So, I'm going to be a zombie once classes start in the fall. Worse next year when clinicals start and I'll be in the hospital 9-5 M-F and still having to work at least 20 hours a week to keep my insurance.
I'm the girl that can't cut raw chicken breast up for a recipe without getting the shakes and I found out today that I'll be dissecting things. Mostly organs, but including a pig fetus. I can do this. I'll just go into another zone and get it done. I have to.
You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have. My strength is really being tested now and I'm realizing I'm not the little wimp I thought I was. Heh. Go figure.
Needless to say, I won't be able to be here as much as I have in the past as I'll be carving out a new future with my bare hands. I'm so glad that we've got such a good bunch of people here and that I don't have to worry about chaos erupting if I'm not here every day. I will miss being here, though.

^We need the balance. ;D Dudes, I swear yesterday Warren came into my store and bought CHEAT THE GRAVE! He was Warren minus the limp and the stink. I kept staring at him and when he picked up Vicki's book off the tower, I was like, "It's him!"

I don't suppose you said 'Hi Warren"?

Working at a bookstore definitely has its perks. : ) My second job is at our local Borders, and I pimp this series like a crazy person.
I haven't had any Warren sightings yet, but I'm hopeful. lol

We don't have a real book store here unless you count Walmart and I don't. That's part of the reason I bought a Kindle.

Good luck with that fight scene, Vick! We all have every confidence in you. *puts the couch and coffee table back in place and replaces the missing light bulbs from the lamps while shaking head @elle and Vampy) Oo, T, do you have a recipe for this Limoncello tea? Sounds divine! Ravie~good for you, girl! I know you can get through those dissections. Ugh, I'm like you with the raw chicken...I hate touching it. This IS a great bunch of peeps...I'll be on more often now that I'm getting back into a regular schedule (don't ask...) I miss you guys!! And so cool about the Warren sighting...you shoulda took a pic....

Maybe Ravie will get a boy lab partner to help her with the disecting. I never cared for that stuff either but you gotta man up when you have a cute girl for a partner.
