We are now in a time known as "deep summer." It's the time of year after the 4th of July but before the kids go back to school. Deep summer, the time of year when you wish you were outside when you're inside and when you're outside you wish you were sitting on a block of ice.
So Jay's "post you dork" comment really got me motivated. Actually I have felt the need to post for a while but...yeah you guessed it...I've been busy editing my book. I've been tearing out huge chunks and adding in more exciting more pertinent to the story type information. Yesterday I just went through and asked myself, "What is the point of this paragraph? Does it add anything important to the story or is it just fluff?" Thus the chunk tearing.
Today I will continue to make modifications to the Jade Council, changing the members perhaps. The Jade Throne is now the Jade Crown (or High Lord's Crown) and each member of the council has a stone that fits into the crown and when all the stones are socketed, wahlla..."
In other news Blue Laser went 5-5 in the arena this week and we're hoping that Cheat Commandos can give us at least a 1600 rating...at least...in the 3v3 bracket. People continue to ask if Nassae is ever going to get on and arena with us again and I have to tell them I simply don't know. It is only about an hour/hour and a half of your time per week...I'm just saying.
I went to a job interview for a position at a christian school and to make a long story short 25k per year and my wife has to wear skirts everywhere she goes. I'm still thinking about it. No, no I'm not. There were other stipulations as well, plus it's nearly 50 miles away from my home.
Well, no doubt I have more job applications to fill out and I need to do dishes and get some more editing done.
I finished Genesis yesterday and got 15 chapters into Exodus this morning. Yep, that's me, grow, grow, grow.
Steve's coming over this weekend so we'll see what kind of shennanigans we get into.

Sorry to all you who have the old manuscript, the story is a'changin' but in good ways. It's just gonna be somewhat different from what you have...maybe alot different.
That pic is from when my niece and I stepped on one of those National Geographic pressure plate/tripwire nighttime cameras as we were crossing a major thoroughfare at Disney. I'm told we are going to be featured in an upcoming article, "Nocturnal Creatures of the Theme Park".
Sweet.

I want to apologize for not telling you this. In the back of my mind, I thought I did, but when I really considered it, I hadn't. I quit my WoW account. I'm really sorry I didn't tell you. I'm not going to sell it or anything, because I think I might get on every once in awhile, since a month is only $15.
Sorry again. That was pretty rude of me to leave you guys in the dark like that. =/
Hey, I'm really glad to hear you are working on your book. Don't destroy it, but I can't wait to get the new version.
$25k and skirts eh? I'm sure your wife was all excited and you just had to tell her "no."
Its good to hear how much Bible you're reading. . .I need to read more and its an encouragement.
It's good to hear you're editing away your time. I wish I could be as motivated. There are no less than 5 novels, in various forms, running around in my head.
