I posted the next couple pages
of Chapter Twenty. They're walkin... pretty boring stuff... a couple of
little clues in today, though they don't necessarily look a lot like clues.
So, theoretically, I'm getting my wisdom teeth out Wednesday, and just in time, too. (Theoretically = why the
hell haven't they heard back from the insurance people yet?!) All my
friends have been playing the "Who can tell me the worst wisdom teeth
horror story" game. First prize so far goes to Chris, with his
friend's jaw breaking during the operation. I got my fingers crossed
that my jaw doesn't break. Wish me luck,
anyway.
My parents, bless 'em, are picking me up from the dentist's - passed out
and drooling, I'm sure - and driving me two and a half hours home to
recuperate for a week and a half. It's not all altruism: Next
week, they're moving from the lovely little place in the nearly-suburbs where
I grew up, to a farm, where they can retire and raise cows and goats and make
(expensive) artisan cheese out of the milk for a living. ...I'm not
kidding. ...yeah, the cheese is freakin delicious. ...sorry, you
can't have any, because they're selling all they can make right now without
even shipping anywhere. Anyway, the upshot is I'm gonna be at home
until next weekend recovering from surgery and eating delicious cheese and
helping my parents move. I might write less there or I might write
more, we'll see. Either way, this time I'll get a copy of my dad's
brilliant synopsis of my story's themes (he's got a master's degree in social
science! =D) and post it here.
