What's the winner of this pool win?
ETA: how far can we go
Sorry, I never thought of a prize. And given my admitted addiction to listening to the news you're more than likely onto a loser anyway.
How about a picture of my cat?

Agreed. This also goes for what some people call 'weekends' and 'evenings'
Ah yes. I've heard of them.

Dagnabit! It's voting time in the Kidlit contest and I can't go vote because I haven't been here long enough.
Please can someone go vote on my behalf, those peeps have put a lot of effort in. I would hate to see it unrewarded.

I've managed to avoid the news for about six years. So obviously it can be done.
Morning folks. Woke up early with bad dreams. Set to do some writing today.
Wassup?
*wakes up with smibbles in her hair and generally looking like hell*
Urgh. I had chills all night, even though it was not below 20 degrees inside or out, figured they'd go away in the morning, it took me 2 hours to fall asleep... and I woke up with chills. And I still have to go to my appt or I'ma be in trouble. Shoot me in the face.

I am not a betting woman but I say less than 6h.
And holy crap Junely, six years? I'd be luny from the stress of Not Knowing What's Out There by Year 2.
Then again, I'm in that minority of people who would like to know exactly when they're going to die, not to avoid it, but to plan accordingly.

Absolutely. Good luck.
Well I'm effectively bed-ridden for a few hours
... What did you do to get yourself bedridden? Are you okay?
I fell over while getting out of the shower... yes, I'm just that clumsy. Anyway, now my leg is in pain so I can't really do much walking without it hurting like Hell.
It's the Knowing that gives me stress. The world outside my mountains is a terrible, scary place.
And I'm not too worried. When the country goes flooey, it won't affect Appalachia; being ignored and/or dismissed by the rest of the country can be useful at times. We'll just sit back and enjoy our garden food and our venison, while the rest of you flail and mourn.
ETA: "you" being a general term. Of course the Cantina is exempt. When the balloon goes up, come find us. You can sleep in the barn loft, which is sooooo cool!
Huh. That doesn't sound so scary then. If I weren't so terrified of hot weather...
Speaking of news, how the &%#@ do the OccupyMARINES admins post so prolifically? I only hit up facebook about once a week, so every time I do if I wanted to catch up completely I'd have to read 78646487638623187 posts. I know there's a bunch of them, but still, like, holy cow. Every time I see that, my novel looks askance at my idle hands and calls me a bad mommy.
Yes, my novel totally has eyes.
It talks.
Shuddup.
*crosses fingers* Erm... What are we crossing our fingers for?

junely, it occurs to me that not watching the news might be a good idea. I mean, all the crap that actually worries me (ie, climate change, overpopulation), is stuff I actually can't do much about.
But news also contains info I can work with. So what I really need is a filtering system, so I can still be informed, but avoid all the stuff I can't do anything with.

Hey, we could totally rebuild society with all the people in the Cantina. It'd be a cool world too...

Well I am news free so far. I wonder what I've missed. Has the world melted yet? Are we all getting free ice creams? Be sure and tell me.

The world needs musical theatre. If it didn't have it, it would be significantly less fabulous.Because this sort of info is totally what we'll need when rebuilding society.
I stopped watching the news when a friend of mine was killed in Iraq. It just hit too close to home. I started having nightmares and panic attacks.
Now I read the local paper, and more news-friendly buddies will send me links they think I'll be interested in, like the passing of Neil Armstrong. But beyond that, nothing.
It's nice. Like you, too much of it is out of my reach, and hugely frustrating, so why torment myself? And, to my endless delight, I don't have to listen to the ridiculous posturing and sabre rattling between conservative and liberal!!!! Good riddance to that particular rubbish!
True. But some of us come already pair bonded. I couldn't really face the end of the world without the Hubby! Who else would whinge about there being no more Cincinnati Reds games?
