Hearing Nothing at the moment.

So...


Out of curiosity, what do you have planned for the rest of 2006, aside from a big loud party tomorrow evening?

Personally, I think I'm going to try to write a short story today.

You?

    Hmmm...  I posted an entry with pretty pictures of fog and words and stuff:

    http://journals.aol.com/dpoem/TheWisdomofaDistractedMind/entries/2006/12/30/the-fog.../639

    Oh, and my last resolution of '06 is to do the Weekend Assignment.  So, I'll probably be doing more stuff with those word things.   Then, I will drool, watch football and think about cooking something out of the box of free meat that I received yesterday.  

    And if you need help with that short story, just remember, if there's a gun on page four, it better go off by page seven.
