Working on Vengeance.

my main character (now called Ona from the comment here: http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/01541c.htm Ona means full of grace.) has found hot naked winged guy injured in the forest. He's also possibly crazy, though I suppose even I'd think of angels if he was winged.

we'll ignore the fact that she doesn't freak out, doesn't wonder where he's from, doesn't seem bothered by the wings. She takes him home, washes him off, dries him off....and then somehow gets from there to 2 kids and him with a career as a superhero or maybe vigilante? gah. I messed up somewhere here.

I think my muse just likes seeing him naked, and has no desire for a plot as plots are things that make you put on clothing and go about in the real world. As opposed to lounging at home naked on the sofa. Not that I do, I mean. But I could. If I didn't have a plot.

if you go to bill text and then cosponsors you can see if it has your rep listed, and if not, you can nag them.

If you are not going to protest this weekend, it seems like another way to help take a stand. Heck, even if you are protesting it's a good idea. Go forth and spread the meme, my children.

I'm going home this weekend, and I already know I'm going to break down when I have to come back here. I can't do this much longer. I want to live some place that doesn't scare me this much. I live 2 miles from the White House, and work less than a half a mile from it. Until I left for Clarion in June there were helicopters over my neighborhood every night for 9 months. I still have to have the music on some nights or the heat wakes me up all night because I think the fan sounds like helicopters.

I know I'll end up freaking out and breaking down before I have to get on the bus Sunday, and I'll end up making my mom yell because she worries too but doesn't like me getting this upset over things we have no contol over.

Crap. Part of me wants just stay at home, to not come back here to live. Chris will be back in June. I can move home after that.
