Choose One

1. Aliens kidnapped me.

2. I'm secretly a superhero, and crime has been soaring in my neighborhood for the past several months.

3. I've been too busy growing my own wheat and milking my own cow so my children can have naturally-sourced, organic toast and butter every morning.

4. Sewing your own bedsheets, curtains, and bath towels takes time and energy.

5. Just taking a little break from here to teach my kids advanced chemical diagramming!

6. I've been writing a novel and have no interest in doing anything else, including breathing.


One of these statements is true, and that's why the blog has been neglected for so long. However, those dear and close to me are lovingly compelling me to return to the world where everybody else lives. Unforutnately, this will mean a lot of re-runs on the blog: I plan to go through Facebook and pull out a lot of my bloggy status updates and add them here for archiving purposes. But that's better than a dead blog, right? Right.

So. *blink blink* This is what y'all's world looks like, huh? I vaguely remember it. Sure is good to be back! As soon as I finish harvesting this wheat/sewing this seam/defending the innocent/writing this dialogue.

Lol-ed. Loved the blink blink.
Only you would take a break from writing and then go work on your poor neglected blog.
I suppose I'll have to refrain from saying things like "oh, I have this really good idea for Ty" which, um, I do.

I think it's awesomely cool that you got that engrossed in your novel. Can't wait to check it out!

I guess 6! I guess 6! 'Cause that is the right one.

D, just e-mail her the idea then. That's what e-mail's for. And I loved the "superhero" option.

Loved, loved, LOVED sitting next to you at the Christmas Party last Friday! I knew you were pretty cool from your blog (and well, you're married to Darren, too), but I was able to confirm my suspicions in person at the party. ;-)

Can't wait to do some more "writerly" swapping soon, even if just online.

Hope you get to do some writing today or tomorrow!
