Hey, so, cool! My whole family was home this weekend, and then my parents' friends, Heiner and Denise stopped by, and so we went from a full house to just me and my mother in about half an hour. I love it when my family comes home. (And yes, family does include David.)
I didn't get a chance to talk to Dykstras or Mrs Vanderlinde at church today. I talked to Janita instead, and then I went home, because Erin wanted to stop at the market and she had to be in Peterborough for 2:30 to catch her bus. So now we have fresh strawberries, most of which will probably end up in the freezer, and asparagus. Mother tried cooking asparagus a while back, but it didn't work, 'cause you're only supposed to boil it for like 2 minutes, not ten. So she's going to try it again. Hopefully it'll be better this time!
I bought a new dress on Monday, and I wore it today. It falls open at the front when I sit down, so I'm going to get a brooch with fake flowers on it to pin it closed. It's a little embarrassing, but hopefully the brooch will fix it. It's a really pretty dress, it's green and blue and white and grey-ish brown. The background is white, and then it's got blue stripes and blue, green and grey-ish flowers in the front, and there's sparkly accents on some of the flowers. Hoorah for $11.00 at It's Worth Repeating!
Ever have it (probably not, I don't think most of you are writers...) that you have an idea for a story when you're showering, and you can't wait to start writing it? And then you don't go to bed until like 11:00, and so you can't start writing it until then. And then you write and write and write and the next thing you know, it's 1:30? That's pretty much what happened to me last night. It's a really good story, though! Or, rather, it will be, when it's finished, and I flesh it out a bit. I'm just writing basically a skeleton. I'll go back when it's done and give it some more meat, make it longer, change the wording (it's easier to find the right word when you type your stories, I find). I'm really really excited about it! Maybe I can include it in my Seasons anthology that I'm writing...
DFTBA,

I love those nights... and hate them at the same time. Why don't ideas come in the daylight hours? Why do they always have to come at sleepy time? :( Still, night is the most beautiful time, so I understand why they come then. They just make me lose precious sleep!
