Yark. This photo of coTangent’s makes me doubt I’d ever be able to hike the PCT. Wah!
SO COOL!
Sarah is SO COOL. Somebody’s asked her for a rewrite on one of her little 10 minute scripts she wrote. GO SARAH! I, on the other hand, failed to get out of bed to write this morning. I got a little writing done last night, though. And I made banana bread! That’s gotta count for something, right? Um. Oh, and I found out that I have .5 days of paid leave and .5 days of vacation left, so I’m totally *not* going to be able to go to Nevada to…
chinooks
Apparently it’s time to rejoice that winter is finally over. There’s a damned *chinook* blowing this morning. It’s partly clear and the sun isn’t up yet and it’s 48 degrees and there’s a warm southerly wind blowing. *buh* In other news, some observations I forgot to make about Era Aviation.

a fit of something
In a fit of something, I’ve rewritten one of the Gryphon Beach Tales and sent it off to Spider Magazine, which is a sister magazine to Cricket, one of my most beloved childhood magazine subscriptions. Spider’s for 6-9 year olds, which I think is a better age group for the Tales than the 9-14y/os that Cricket caters to. They’ve got a 12 week response time, so I won’t hear back til next YEAR, but hey, I submitted something. Cool!
