I know what you mean, Princess Bettielee. I have almost finished filling out the bankruptcy information the attorney asked me to fill out before our first meeting tomorrow. And I feel like throwing up. I am seriously all nerves and panic and I don't know how I am going to make it through this.

I will of course. I have turned to avocados. Almost as good as chocolate.

Good evening Queen Duchess... err, something wrong with that, isn't there?

Good evening Queen Mary... um, that is a little odd too.

Ah well, good evening Queen! And Royals!

And Princess Ambrosia, you will come out on the other side soon. Good luck to you :)

The talking heads keep muttering "recovery". I say a pox on them. They don't know what they're talking about.

Good to see you in the castle, Prince DES!!

Hi, Prince DES! LTNS! I will make it to the other side, but walking over the molten rocks and broken glass hurts like heck right now. ;)

Princess Bettielee, I also regret I do not have ice cream.

My Queen, I tell everyone I can to try to plant a garden, even if it is just a container garden. That is what I have going right now. It likely isn't going to be very successful, but it is a start.

I hate being awake by 4:30 or 5, laying there, wanting to go back to sleep, unable to do anything but observe the mind's gears turning. I hate it.

Hmm. That was me last night, but at the opposite end of the evening. Self inflicted, too. I'd looked up torture instruments for a story I'm writing - just to make an accurate reference to one - and of course the barbarity of it haunted me. Looking forward to a better night's sleep tonight. If I wake up after 5:30am, I sometimes get up, and even get a bit of writing done before everyone wants me, though my son is an early riser regardless. But 4:30am -- that's pretty horrible.

Now, at the insistence of her friend who asked me to read said work, I have to write this author that I do not know and tell her of the flaws. And my fatigue level is such from the late nights, early mornings, and stress level that I do not know how I am going to write a coherent sentence in an email to a stranger, critting their work that they assume is ready for release. Arrrgggghhhh! Why did I have to agree to read it?!?

Sounds painful. And yet, propelled by a strange sense of duty, which I understand. As others have said, I hope that author is expecting your email, and that your time is appreciated.

Including the boss. Who is about as able to run our company as a hummingbird.
Brings back memories of one of my ex-bosses. The company went under in the end (while I was on maternity leave, thank goodness, so I didn't have to be there for it). The best thing about that place is it's given me some excellent story fodder.

Anyway,

Hail Queen Mary! I hope you like tea:

And I hope I am not too late to wish you an enjoyable reign. :D

All Hail Queen Mary!

Sorry I am a little late for the ceremony. Some gifts for the new queen:

No be headings, and no iron maidens. :D


WHAT?
:Jaw:
What did you do with my iron maiden? *runs down to the dungeon to be sure all torture implements are where they belong*


Sheesh, I get busy with all the little fuzzbabies, and people are trying to throw out my stuff. :tongue

If I get around to it, I shall upload cuteness. I have Guinea keets, chicks, and Muscovy ducklings. Fuzzbabies everywhere.

Well Jeez, Princess Wicked. You haven't been gracing our presence lately! Sounds like you've been busy with all of your beasties. :hi:

this week is not getting any better... as a matter of fact, this week is pretty much full of suck....

I know what you mean, Princess Bettielee. I have almost finished filling out the bankruptcy information the attorney asked me to fill out before our first meeting tomorrow. And I feel like throwing up. I am seriously all nerves and panic and I don't know how I am going to make it through this.
