Round 24, Hour 16

[pitry.livejournal.com]

You're getting a break from me!

For the next couple of hours, I shall be put on a bus. The wonderful Beth, my suspiciously similar substitute, shall post instead of me.

Then, much like the inspiration for the Trope, we will switch back.

Also, I'm a linguist.

AAAAAHHH! TV TROPES! YOU EVIL FIEND!!!!!!

:P

100 words last hour. They were utterly horrible but that's what editing is for.

Except now the evil of TVTropes will make sure you don't get that bit done.. :P

[lullabymoon]

:P

An hour and a quarter

ARGH!!!!!!!

[lolmac]

100 horrible words can become the basis for a very large number of non-horrible words!

[lullabymoon]

Very true! That's my whole strategy at the moment.

[lolmac]

Must . . . resist . . . TV Tropes . . .

Ooo. As your Suspiciously Similar Substitute, do I suddenly acquire a lot of Pitry-powers? Does this require being bitten by a radioactive peccary?

[pitry.livejournal.com]

Bitten by an evil giraffe more like it! :D

Woo. I am awake, I have worked out, and I am at least temporarily in the round. Let's find out if I have a story to tell today.

:-) I am NOT REALLY HERE. I am writing my Yuletide fic, though.

Good luck to everyone else, especially the other Yuletiders and holiday-fic writers.

[lolmac]

Your imaginary presence is welcome nonetheless!

Fellow linguist here! :D Which is to say, I'm back from sleep and unexpected Christmas duties sprung on my by a suprise!mother.

Now for fic! Now for writing! And the words flowing! */Theoden*

Out of blankness, out of white screen, to the pixels' showing.

I'm not really here either because I'm not really here either - I, er... copied down a chunk of Gk Chesterton into a journal and wrote 3 Christmas cards. >_<

But confusticate and be bother it, I also had to suddenly find food, bedding and entertainment for a handful of college girls last night just as Fic Rush was kicking off. By Grabthar's Hammer, I will be avenged! Maybe. In a nice way.

[lolmac]

Try setting down Grabthar's Hammer. It's easier to write when you're not holding a hammer.

Perhaps after I hammer my notebook open and whack over my pencil-cup to find a good pen that actually works. ;-)

::perks up::

I'm drinking mah coffee and finished mah drabble. Now I must go and make pumpkin rolls, can dried beans, wrap more presents, and clean up the house. I'll be back.

I read the bus trope information with interest.

Are there penguins on that bus? Ninja ones who might hi-jack it for their own neferious purposes?
