"Did you leave water out for the dog?" "I've just been leaving the toilet seat up."

Man, I love that little "My LJ" feature. It keeps track of all the birthdays and stuff. That's really cool.

Today I have to vacuum the carpet and sweep out the bathroom. It's not too bad. It gives me something to do until I become employed again. I mopped the kitchen yesterday. It looks much better, too. I also need to update my resume at some point.

You know, the word "vacuum" is a strange looking word, isn't it? I guess it's the double-u in it. "Continuum" is the same way. You can hear it more in that one than you can in vacuum. Don't mind me. I'm just being random.

I wrote more of the Pip/Seras/Xander triangle on ATACT. I first wrote Xander's POV, then Stampers wrote more on it and then I wrote on Seras and Pip's POV (sort of). I was pretty happy with how it came out. It just kinda happened. Kinda like a happy accident.

I wonder if there's a particular name for dog stink? Is it just "dog stink"? I ask because since I'm living with a dog now, it seems to be an issue I'm dealing with. Rusty is small enough to fit on one's lap, but with him comes the dog stink. Ugh. I guess that's another reason I'm more of a cat person. Plus, cats don't need to be let outdoors ten zillion different times a day.

I made an appointment to get my hair cut. I wanted to do it before we leave for Women of Faith this weekend. It needs it desperately.

Well, that's enough for now.

I just call it doggy funk. *wrinkles nose*

And yes, I have missed the quotes of the day! Yay! ^_^

Doggie funk has a nice ring to it. And it seems the same, no matter the breed of the dog, too.

Blech.

I've been trying to figure out my little gimmick for next year.

Isn't that the truth? And just FORGET about it if they get wet. ICK ICK ICK!

Hmm.... Trust?

I know. Wet dog is worse than dog.

Actually, I've been trying to find a book along the lines of "How To Enhance Your Word Power" so I can do a sort of "Word of the Day" kind of thing...

No kidding. Ewwwww.

Oooo, I look forward to those!

[identity profile] snapdragon76.livejournal.com 2005-11-13 07:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, so do I?

I've just been having trouble finding some. I mean, I have no idea even where to look...

And I didn't mean for that to be a question mark...

*facepalm*

Can't help you there, I'm afraid. ^^;; I can quote from Commercial Real Estate books, though.

Yeah, maybe I'll bite the bullet and ask someone...

I wish you continued success in your writing....

I'll be writing again when RL calms down. I can't wait. I've got a couple of things I want to 'get out there':)

PS-_yeah, that LJ addition is great. Saved my ______a couple of times:)

*blushes* Gee, you're making me sound as if I write full on story length stories. It's really just an RP thing. We do it a bit differently, though...

Yeah, actually I have a few birthdays coming up...
