Writing undone and done, and dream...and stuff

[kinzel]

Got some writing done yesterday after undoing some other writing; way it goes.

Spent part of this early morning dreaming in story, which doesn't always happen, and also dreamed about Roger Zelazny, which may be a first for me. In the dream Roger handed me a just finished manuscript to look at (he'd done that when I used to stop by to visit him in Baltimore -- among others I got to see the just finished 9 Princes in Amber, which he was quite happy with) except this manuscript was typed in color: green and blue and orange and red and I couldn't quite read the title because the font was so garish... guess that's what we get for reading from Night in The Lonesome October after doing 4 hours of my own writing last night.

Any stealth candidates where you are? I ask this because I got some campaign literature form a local candidate the other day. I dunno, don't you think it's odd that he forgot to mention anywhere in the brochure that he's affiliated with the Republican Party? I didn't even see it in the fine print.... I mean, you is or you ain't, right? If you're running for office as an independent you say that. If you're running as a Democrat, you say that.... don't you?

Ravens deserved to lose that one, but I'm still sorry. Chance of snow showers no longer listed for Friday night. Still sorry about that, too. Way it goes.






* PS -- got through the first time without a single misspelled word. Hah ... LJ didn't agree, and gave me these choices for Zelazny:

Sleazy, Lazing, Blazon, Sleazily, Zuzana, Sleaze, Zeal's, Nelsen, Nelson, Blazing, Glazing, Sealing, Slain, Zealous, Sleazes, Celene, Celina, Celine, Sela's, Selena, Selene, Selina, Seline, Zola's, Solacing, Celestyn, Luzon, Sloan, Leasing, Slays, Cellini, Cezanne, Gleason, Salazar, Celling, Selling, Delcina, Delcine, Zarla's, Nealson, Larceny, Salon, Seals, Realizing, Ceylon, Sloane, Lacing, Lasing, Season, Sleazier, Salons, Selznick, Suzann, Saline, Seal's, Zealously, Celia's, Selia's, Sella's, Sloan's, Salon's, Ceylon's, Zolly's, Celina's, Selena's, Selina's, Celene's, Celine's, Selene's, Seline's

Selina would be thrilled to see that LJ wants to put her in Zelazny's place. What a scary thought!

I can see your point. But what's "Nelson" or "Leasing" doing in that list of choices.... very odd...

No -- dems down here, and moderate republicans, often send out their literature without a party, just the office they're running for. If you like their pitch, there you are.

The Repubs backed a very conservative person to take out my local rep, maybe six-eight years ago. She was part of the lawsuit about gerrymandering. And she was a republican! Just not right-wing enough for them.

I actually had to vote Repub in the last two primaries -- they were uncontested by Dems (actually several people -- probably Repubs -- registered for the Democractic primary, but withdrew after the closing date)the RNC was running right-wingers to take out their own judge incumbants. And believe it or not -- McCaul was the most normal of the ten Repubs running for the 10th district.

So I can tell McCaul with an honest heart that I won't vote for him again. ;^)

I just visited his web page...

I'm sorry, but Texas and Florida are really high on my list of states I'm glad I don't live in.

I live on the island of Austin, where most of the people are either very normal or escapees from a Harry Potter novel.

But the fundies think God is on Bush's side. I hear the Foley thing may be the tipping point.

I can hope. I can pray. Because I need good weather for the joints, and I'm not hispanic (NM) or a foaming-at-the-mouth conservative (AZ) and I can't afford CA.

I'd pray for the Rapture except that I don't think God would take the really creepy, self-righteous, hating creatures I'd want to get rid of, either.

We need a bumper sticker....

Something like "Want world peace? Pray for the Rapture! Once they're all gone, it can be paradise on Earth!"
