Taking a day off from seeing sights o sit by the pool and try to update the site, the little day to day stuff that is the equivalent of slopping the hay and pitching the chickens.
I've been told that Florida is hot, well so is the CA desert. The difference is between baking and boiling. At least in CA, it may be cooler in the shade.
It sure is green here tho, but the place I'm staying is infested with toons. Friendly for the most part.
"Pete" Petersen had what it took to play football— then he woke up one morning and he didn't have it anymore. He had something else. Would they even let him play football--let HER play football?
I met with C.D. Rudd (creator of SailorSun.org and I Dream of a Jeanie Bottle) in his livestream last night and he did a sketch of Hallie Jones from Special FX, my story inspired by his SailorSun webcomic!
I'm home and the site did not burn down while I was gone. I didn't take a computer or even my tablet, just my phone so I really wouldn't be tempted to do my usual tinkering and fixing. Piper and Cat kept me informed and I did pick in a few times, but not much.
It's good to be home, even if an errant forgotten onion had a surprise for me after apparently three days too many in a cabinet. Whew!
I'm taking three days off for a trip to the desert and the sequoias. I'll be back Tuesday. I'll have my phone but not my laptop. Piper and Cat will be watching the site. Love you all.
Pete and his girlfriend, Megan, celebrated the football team's first league victory of the season. But morning reveals a horrible, frightening discovery...
December 26th is traditionally the holiday known as Boxing Day in most of the English-speaking world. In the US, it's a minor moment for after Christmas sales but elsewhere it may rival Black Friday for the retail world.
But originally, Boxing Day was when wealthy people gave gifts to servants, tradesmen and charities. It became a time for people to think of others less fortunate than themselves before morphing into a bargain-hunting monument to personal consumerism.
Here on BC, Kissy and Rory are going to the game where her friends have never seen the real girl. Meanwhile, on Patreon, the last chapter of Butterscotch is up for Patreons!
