Today there will be food and beer and cake at my house - a pleasant family day. Tonight, we will journey down to our favorite place to watch the local fireworks and much fun will be had there too. I love the fourth of July. I can remember, as a wee girl, sitting on the trunk of my grandparents' car to watch them - all those big beautiful fire blossoms. At the time - it was purely amazing. It still amazes me. I love it.  It's shaping up to be a beautiful, if blissfully lazy, day. But - it's time to start the cake. I've promised CrazyHorse he can decorate it.

• 15:29 @Lenneth You know - I didn't know that was a real word :) I have a villan by that name. Learn something new everyday #
• 20:28 @Lenneth I googled it after I saw you post. I was just surprised I'd come up with a real word, given my method of creating names. #

• 17:05 @domynoe it's always the ones that are SUPPOSED to be easy that turn into giant piles of busy or fail or worse... #
• 17:12 @domynoe at least you knew from the start where it was going maybe :) mine didn't take a header until 3ish. And it had so much potential too #

• 10:37 @vg_ford thank goodness for small favors re: meds #
• 10:37 designing fairy beach houses and working on Seduka today. Pleased as punch with both right now. #
• 12:03 first draft is both too long and missing too much rich detail... can't have everything I guess. :P #
• 13:09 @vg_ford At worst its an annoyance. Its the first fully complete draft I have of fiction all year! I just had a particular market in mind. #
• 22:43 good thing - I wrote a story. Bad thing - not so sure it is going to stay short. Waiting to see what first people to read it might think. #

• 23:59 The best cheese has lovely little chunks of bloody, sweaty, crazy fighting in it. See? I really don't make a very good girly girl. #
• 11:21 off to Father's Day lunch. Happy Father's Day to all dads out there! #
• 16:46 my blank page is much less blank today. The story is good. The words need a LOT of work #
• 16:57 @Saronai what's the difference then between reality based and urban fantasy? #
• 18:42 @domynoe what if it's a komodo? #
• 18:42 feeling oddly goofy right now #
• 19:38 @domynoe oh - I know. it's that oddly goofy bit going on. :) #
• 19:39 @domynoe - though, it might be really interesting to work a komodo into a 'reality based' fantasy story... #
