It’s the tick-tick-tock of the countdown. I have 45 minutes until Spawn2 gets on the bus.
And I will be. Alone.
Blessedly, quietly, silently, caffeinated, house-a-wreck, laundry-looming…ALONE.
If you could see my face it would be smiling.
So, what am I going to do on my glorious, glorious first day alone after what seemed like an endless holiday? I’m going to work on Collide, that’s for damn sure. And I think I shall clean off my desk, not because I want to clean anything but because I have to, if I want to see my keyboard.
And then I’m gonna write me some woe. Oh, yes, woe. Because the heroine has been soundly rejected by the hero and she’s one pissed off woman. He’s gonna get a smack down of epic proportions, that foron. He’s gonna get soundly spanked…and guess what?
HE WILL F-ING LOVE IT.
I do not know why I sometimes fake like I don’t curse by adding a “dash” in the middle of the f-word, when really, we all know I let that word fly around all the time. I shouldn’t act like I’m classy, that’s dishonest.
In other news, there are some people in this world who are simply so douchetastic it seems unbelievable that they could become any more ridiculously foronic, but guess what? THEY CAN! I know, right? Seems like that shouldn’t be so, but it really just is. And I’m not talking about the forons who keep putting my work up on illegal download sites (sorry if you don’t like to hear me complain about that, but the fact is, until they stop doing it, I’m not going to stop getting all Christian Bale about it) — I’m talking about the type of forons who act like the world is not just their oyster, but their entire f-ing pearl necklace.
And here’s what it looks like when the UPS person leaves my boxes of books out in the rain and I must save them, saaaaaaaave them!!!!!
And this is the disaster zone of my office:
And here is the disaster zone of my desk:
So. Yeah. Down to 18 minutes and counting. I’ma get my spawn into his shoes and coat and out the door, I’ma get my coffee brewing, I’ma get some sh** picked up off my floor and get to work!
WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!
Oh, btw? WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Say it with me now….

WHEEEEEE! I love it that he is gonna get a smack down in Collide. And the UPS man should get a smack down of his own for leaving the copies of Switch out in the rain! That’s almost like sacrilegious or something.
Hope you get all the things you want to get done, done while you are by yourself
BTW did I tell you how excited I am about Switch…

WHEEEE! Your enthusiasm shines clearly in your choice of words, even the grumbles about pirating (insert my own grumbling here).
Your messy office makes me feel 1000 times better because oh my lord my office is a disaster. And I’m sick and I just don’t CARE.
