I made it down and back safely. It was roughly a 780 mile round trip. I was going to do some writing tonight, but since I've already blew most of the day, why ruin a good day by sitting down and typing in the heat?!?!! I'll be back on track in the morning.

I'm up, showered, packed, and everything I might need is in my travel bag that I always carry. I have to stay at home until 9AM, then make my bank deposit and then make tracks almost due south after I cross the Mighty Mac. A quick listen to the traffic report says that traffic south bound is... Sign in to see full entry.

Whew! It hit roughly 93 here this afternoon, heating up my downstairs office to the point that I can't work properly. I might come back a bit later, but the temps are supposed to stay in in the mid to upper 80's. I'll wait until it cools. The problem isn't all me. The animals want me to take them...

Background Material
This 'pantzer' approach to writing has its up and down sides. I figured that the story had about 2400, maybe 2600 more words to complete it. Yeah. Just like I though that this was ' only going to be 9000 to maybe 11,000 words.' I think I can finish 'Interdimensional' in one more post, but I'm... Sign in to see full entry.
Good morning Blog-It-ville! I stayed up until about 2:30 last night and I came oh, so close to finishing 'Interdimentional,' it gave me a headache when I decided that I had to stop for the night. The brain wanted to keep going, but I was beginning to make unforced typing errors. I'll finish to by 1... Sign in to see full entry.

I posted my next installment of 'One More' over in the 'Mature' section. Maybe it's because that story is the polar opposite of my normal genres, or maybe it's this new 'stream of conciousness' story telling thing I'm doing, or maybe I'm using it to blow off steam. Perhaps all three. As long as I am... Sign in to see full entry.
I just posted what I think is the penultimate chapter to "Interdimensional." It seems that my rest period allowed me to remember an event from my own medical past. In the fall of 1976, I was out deer hunting and I ran into a 55 year-old man and his twelve-year-old son. The father had collapsed with... Sign in to see full entry.
I am going to take a long break away from everything for now. Between the heat, the sky high humidity and the pondering I have to do to finish one story and advance another require I relax for a while and think. Be safe and be happy today. V Sign in to see full entry.
It is Grade A HOT here today! I'm running a bit behind schedule as I had friends stop in so they could watch the parade the village puts on ever major holiday. Thirty-four floats and three showers later, everyone is gone and I'm back in my basement office to work. I've been thinking of how exactly I... Sign in to see full entry.

Our power was restored about 6AM this morning. I'm not sure what kicked it off, but it made a very loud BOOM! just before it happened. I suspect the village people (a lot of pun intended) were home celebrating as the daily crews have today off. The amount of traffic up here has increased ten-fold... Sign in to see full entry.
