As I mentioned two weeks ago, this is my birthday weekend. You were lucky to get a real post last week, if you think about it. It was Halloween-on-a-Friday, a moderately rare occurrence, and we did lots of Halloween activities and collected boatloads of candy (although less than I’d expected). But I still found time to write my roughly 1,500 words for your perusing pleasure. What an awesome fellow I am.
And now this awesome fellow is another year older (yawn) and he am celebrating by ordering his family around and totally letting the power go to his head. Also eating terribly. Also also I forced my children to help build a rather large Heroscape map. And watch silly movies with me. And there’s more to come today.
So I’m much too busy to spew forth a chiliad and a half of lexemes for your oblectation.* But next week you may score, so tune back in and try again. After all, birthdays are fleeting, as are all measurements of our span on this earth. So let me wallow in my sorrow over the inevitable passage of time for just a bit longer; I’ll get back on track next week.
* Look ’em up.
