I’m writing this post at ten to midnight after just finishing NaNo. I gave up on Snow Angels– it’s not the right kind of story for NaNo, and it just wasn’t working. But I proudly have 50,000 words of Dusk.
It’s far from finished, but I’m going to keep working on it. I think my goals [...]
I should probably post something about Seussical, now that it’s over. I’m relieved, really, but it’s also sad. I miss the show already. Putting it on, all the work and fun and laughter and frustration–maybe even more so for me, with so many friends, good friends, in the production.
I should probably also post something about [...]
How sad is it that on World Food Day, the world does not have food? As I found out from the World Food Programme, a child dies of hunger every six seconds, and a billion people–one-sixth of the world’s population–are starving.
When I heard this, my initial reaction was that that’s so sad, that’s awful, I [...]
Somehow it’s possible to be dumped twice by the same person without any kind of relationship in between.
I sent the poem of last post to my ex-boyfriend, to the email he never uses anymore, intending that he never actually read it, but he did and sent a reply that was worse than when he actually [...]
Don’t read this message.
I mean every word.
You said you don’t check
your email anymore, but to be safe
I sent it to your old address
where I know you’ll never see it.
I don’t want you to read these words
and think I mean them
think I’m begging or pleading
I’m not.
Not stupid,
not crying,
not angry,
not hurt.
I’m just sorry
not for all of it
for [...]
I got a Twitter account.
Technically I already had one, but, having long forgotten what it was, I made a new one. I’m Ira Tailor there (actually iratailor, but…). Officially already addicted to it.
…Scheissemanelli, that sounded like a tweet. Need help quick, save please! (/intentional self-mocking)
NaNoWriMo is yet to relaunch. I can’t wait much longer!
In other [...]
…I write a post on my blog. I’m sort of amazed I’ve posted every day for the past few days–isn’t everyone proud of me? x3 I kid, I kid. But seriously.
I’ve spent tongiht studying for a quiz in chemistry, on ionic compounds. Using flash cards, which made me feel like either a total dork or [...]
…about Seuss(ical)! I’m extremely excited for the show. We got costumes today–and I don’t have to wear yellow! YES! -jump for joy- There was ONE green dress and it fits me perfectly. Unfortunately ther zipper needs fixed, but super exciting anywayyyys.
In other, non-Seussical news, school is going pretty well. Chamber was fun today, our conductor [...]
It was dark in the lobby—the only light was from outside, and the sky was dark with clouds.
We started pulling the decorations-in-progress out: the cardboard pillars and cutouts, and all the tape and sticky foam to patch it together. Everything slid easily across the polished tiles, but it was harder to maneuver the pieces around [...]
As November crawls closer, I’m getting more and more impatient for it. I’m planning to write the newly renamed Evening Sky (formerly Fallen Evening formerly Queen of the Evening) for the third time this year–a plot I know well, with characters I adore, but a fresh start and a new drive. I’m even writing it [...]
