Here I sit

So, I'm working from home today. I have my laptop perched on the two-drawer filing cabinet, and I've borrowed the comfier chair that usually gets used with my home PC, rather than spend all day sitting on a metal folding chair. I am too short for this chair. Normally, I pull my legs up on it because the PC desk is tall enough that I can roll right under it. Not so with the filing cabinet. I have to lean forward, and pulling my legs up on the chair doesn't work well with that position. So, here I sit - feet dangling several inches off the floor, and enough room between my back and the back of the chair that at some point one of my cats will decide that's a great place to chill out. I feel like Edith Ann. Is anyone out there old enough to know who that is?

Meredith will be home around 1:00. I need to finish up something for work, shower, take her to get an x-ray, and get to her dental appointment by 2:50. Well, we'll give it a shot.

On my home PC, I am downloading the first three episodes of 'Brotherhood', starring Jason Isaacs. *sigh* Many thanks, Myn, for introducing me to BitComet!

I did not achieve my goal of writing a chapter last night. I did work a little on Anniversary, but there's still a long way to go before I can call it a chapter. Myn gave me one of her plot bunnies to play with, and it's AWESOME. So, now that's added to the to-write list. Recounting, that list is: Anniversary, Loyalties, London, The Pursuit of Happiness (Mail Order Bride fic), Draco in Mugglemagicland, Professor Malfoy and the Young Weasleys, What I Make Myself Believe (one-shot), The Tempest (otherwise known as the storm smut one-shot), the Gambling smut one-shot, Myn's bunny, and the Neville/Pansy one-shot.

That's all the procrastinating I can do for now.

Book Meme snagged from Ayla

1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the next 3 sentences on your blog along with these instructions.
5. Don’t you dare dig for that "cool" or "intellectual" book in your closet! I know you were thinking about it! Just pick up whatever is closest.


Hmm, let's see if you can guess what these two are talking about. I'm actually posting a couple extra sentences because this passage cracks me up.

"How would I know, I've never been married."

"Is it always the same for you?"

"Well, in some ways, yes."

"In what ways?"

"Well, so far, it seems to be moist."

"Moist?"

"Yeah, but I can't say it's always that way, just in my experience. Maybe we should ask a harlot?"

"Better yet," Joshua said, looking around, "I'll ask Titus. He's older, and he looks as if he's sinned a lot."

This exerpt is from 'Lamb - The Gospel According to Biff, Christ's Childhood Pal' by Christopher Moore. I love this book.
