alone
I’m alone, which is a rare, rare treat since I’ve temporarily moved in with my parents, thanks to the contruction mess that’s currently demolishing my own house.
Well, alone unless you count the four year old, who is napping. And the dog, who is also napping.
The husband went one way and my parents the other, because of some big brainstorm concerning dinner. I caught the words ‘fajitas’ and ‘Steph needs Diet Coke’ and ‘she’s not even listening to us’ and I don’t bother correcting anyone that of course I can hear every word they’re saying, but as long as I’m going to be fed and have caffeine, I’m not looking up from the writing.
As for the writing, thank you for the many offers to take the SEALs off my hands for the next few days. But please be careful what you wish for. I’m just sayin’, the natives are getting mighty restless and once they leave me, I can’t be responsible for their actions.

Tessa, the witch is looking for company too. However, I’m not so sure you want her to meet up with your SEALs. You might want to keep them in lock down. She wreaks havoc when she’s bored.

Just keep Jake away from my Muse for a week or so, Steph. I need her right now. Early September, he can have her for a long weekend.

Enjoy that alone time! I’m sitting with my 16 month-old on my lap, a glass of white wine, and am just chillin’.

Enjoy the peace…and the food and the Diet Coke. Sounds like a pretty good day.

Sasha - Jake told me to tell you to bring it on. I told him he was playing with fire, but he’s too stubborn to listen…
Linda - I’ll do my best to distract him!
Michelle - it sounds like you had a wonderful time this afternoon too:smile:
Kacey - it didn’t last very long but I loved every single second of it.
Amy - the food was awesome. And there’s plenty of diet coke now, so I’m all set.

Mmm…fajitas…
Oooh, and have you tried the new Diet Coke with Splenda? I HATE diet drinks, but the Splenday Coke barely tastes like diet. Yum!

Ah, love being alone, or at least the illusion of it …
As for your SEALS. Send ‘em my way, Bo Black can join ‘em and they can write their own damn endings. But they need to hurry because my book is due in 8 days …

Alone time is good!
I’m looking forward to the guys showing up at my place. I definitely need the distraction. :)
As for Diet Coke with Splenda, I hate hate hate it!!! Just give me my Nutrasweet, thankyouverymuch.

Larissa - I’ve got to say I’m with Tori on this one - my husband bought the splenda by accident and I hated it. I really really like the taste of Diet Coke - because I wouldn’t drink it for the diet part. Not the way I eat chocolate…
Um, Jill - I think Jake’s already been there. Looks like Bo’s on his way to Cece’s DanceHall…hope you don’t need him back too too soon…
