I have 367 mutual friends. Most of these folks, I have no idea who they are, don't know if they've ever commented here, have no idea why they're here. Not that the no commenting bothers me, I'm terrible for that myself. Anyway, it's just a lot of folks. I think it's making me feel kind of nervous in a way. Like I have to be extra interesting. :) And speaking of that--oy! It *has* been boring around here lately! It's all whine whine here and boo-hoo there, with a smidge of story thrown in...*sigh* I guess it will take me a while to get used to not having my child here. It's not like this is the first time--she moved out to go to school and then moved back home...but her room is empty. Cleared out. So I walk past her door and don't look at it. Aaah, time will fix that. It's only been a week so I really shouldn't be so embarrassed about moping, but it is kind of embarrassing to be this drippy about it and people at work are making fun of me. Nice to know who's got your back...*g*

As far as wrting goes, I had some problems with a change of tone in East that didn't fit, so I'm working on that, geez, it seems like one word at a time. I should have been suspicious when suddenly it was just writing itself. Un-hunh. *eyeballs story*. It was weird, I didn't even notice until I began checking for typos. Does this ever happen to anyone else? It's almost like automatic writing (is that what it's called?).

yes, it's hard when they move out. my son moved out to school, then moved back in, then moved out again. now he's in seattle. i miss him so much, and with ted fixin' to move to the dorm in about 6 weeks, it may be basket-case time in the fall. i love to mother people. :/

my writing is almost all automatic. by which i mean, if it's hard to do, i don't do it. lazy, shiftless me. my nano projects are never edited. i just blurt them out, and the smaller pieces i do are always on impulse. so i salute you for soldiering on when you're not feeling the mojo! (i hope you let us read most of the automatic stuff that was easy.)

I'm going to reshape that stuff a bit and use it in the Whit/Jason& Clark story--the tone suits that fic pretty good. I've thrown my hands up and let go of the funny story it was supposed to be, hah! Besides, isn't it time for another angst fest here anyway? *G*

Yeah, I've been reading about you and your sons and keeping kind of mum, because I am not the one you want commenting right now, lol! I don't think you need a response made mostly of whine and woe is me. Lately you and I are kind of joined at the hip, mentally. *G*

aw, you can come whine in my journal any time! i'd be glad to sympathize, empathize, or both.

yeah, your angst fests keep us hangin' on. ;)
