sigh

I’m getting a little tired of publicly declaring the failure to reach my writing goals. I’m just sayin’. So this is me NOT telling you that I’m going into fake radio silence for yet another week.

Anyway, I’m making progress on my book, this is good. And something this fake radio silence has taught me is the value of using various social networking thingamajigs. I don’t know how many people are following my twitter, but there’s some peace of mind in knowing that even though this blog is silent, I’m somewhere online, complaining about the way life is. It placates my secret fear that you will all forget about me and find some other volcano enthusiast (WILL S/HE LOVE YOU LIKE I LOVE YOU?). Yay social networking!

Speaking of social networking, if you’re on GoodReads, you should friend me!

Also in related news, the livejournal feed hasn’t updated to show my last post and I don’t know why. I wonder if it will show this one! SUSPENSE.

Anyway, if you would like to see how writing Your Mom has been going, I leave you with this:




Key: the pretty blonde represents me (of course), the fella with the unrelenting hunger for my brains represents my book and the hot geek with the driving gloves represents SEXINESS IN A BROKEN WORLD. You know. Just in case I wasn’t doing a good enough job of it already.

    I just want you to know – if I have zombie dreams tonight, it will be ALL YOUR FAULT.

    Where are Crow and Tom Servo when you need them?

    Anyway, you’re doing a way better job of maintaining your Internetsiness than me. I feel myself fading away like Michael J. Fox on stage at the HS dance when Biff beats up his dad. I can see thru my hand!! Maybe all my MS needs is a Delorian…

    Tweet! Tweet!

    Zombieman is probably related to Lurch, who had a much kinder disposition (and would bring you tea while you write). Though he chases you, I see you are becoming more and more resourceful. I hope you survive!

    If you are Pretty Young Blonde, may I suggest:

    a) learning to drive properly
    b) wearing appropriate footwear when going to taunt zombies

    That is all. Carry on with your writer self.

    See? Then you get home and your dad is all like “What happened to the car?” and you’re all like “A zombie made me drive it into a tree, Dad” and he’s all like “Well, you’re paying for it.” And not one word about how he’s glad your brains weren’t eaten.

    Briony: Thank you! I’ma gettin’ there! Of course, that’s three weeks in a row I’ve said that. ;)

    Emily: omg. MJF DANCE IN BTF ANALOGY WAS BEST ANALOGY EVER.

    Danette: I got away! Just barely! :D

    Em: But. Driving properly and appropriate footwear are no fun!!

    S: That is EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED. I have chills right now. VERBATIM.

    Ah…that clip made me all nostalgic. Back when zombies weren’t all that much different looking than you or I. I guess they just haven’t aged well.

    I have to admit, I was hoping we’d get another Courtney vlog. Not that I’m upset to see the undead living here.

    It’s time, woman!

    (no pressure)

    Man that is one determined Zombie! But why’d he leave the guy in the cemetary? Maybe his brain was a little too chewy…

    TKT: I knowwwwwwwww. Heh. I WILL VLOG AGAIN. Eventually.

    Angela: because he could not stand Johnny’s sexiness!! To much sexiness is unhealthy, you know.
