First, happy belated birthday to [livejournal.com profile] crownzeal. I hope you had a most fantastic birthday.

Second. Does anyone have a text copy of Talliswood they can send my way? I want to load it onto Jordan but copying nearly 200 parts is something I don't really want to do if someone else already has it. I'm lazy I know. Thank you [livejournal.com profile] chrismm

Corey was at cub camp all this weekend. I did have online plans for while he was gone but they didn't happen and instead James and I spent the weekend together with early nights in front of the fans, because damn but it's hot. Corey had a blast and came home really dirty. Apparently he fell in the mud from the assault course. Add in the night hikes and the camping and it was a recipe for dirt. But the good things about little boys are they wash so it didn't take long to get him squeaky clean again. Sadly the same can't be said of his socks which are good for nothing but the bin now *g*

James and I did a bootsale yesterday with the in laws which was interesting. I spent most of the time entertaining my niece as we chilled in the back of the car eating plums and drawing as she covered me in sun protection at least seven times. I had to laugh when we were waiting to get into the sale. I'd taken Jordan and thought I'd try and sneak a read, of course that didn't happen as James had to tell his mam what it was. At which point she said I should try and sell some of my stories to the magazines. I was like what!? double taking mentally while cringing inside. I don't think so somehow.

I've spent a lot of time reading this weekend, lounging on the bed where it's cool. I've just finished Book of Secrets and as a result my trickc love is mega high. Not that it's never not high, just now it's higher still. So much love for them. They make me want to dance the dance of trickc joy, except it's too hot and I couldn't anyway. I'll just imagine doing so.

I'm still all EEEEEEE!!! about Dr Who. Oh 9 and Captain Jack. How much do I love you? A lot is the answer.

To end, this is the haiku I was given.

*jumps you then lies at your side and basks in the heat*

How are you? I've missed you so much.

What the heck is it with people and thinking you should write for financial gain? It's never crossed my mind to write for magazines and it's not like the stuff I write would be accepted anyway *g*

I've been OMG DYING OF THE HEAT because my accommodation is ridiculously well insulated, and we have NO FANS OR AIRCONDITIONING. I had to go to the campus CostCutter (which sells stuff at exorbitant prices) to get 10 minutes of aircon. *sweats*

My fan and I have been best friends this weekend as it cools me down. I was so glad it stormed so much last night and broke the temperature for a while Sadly it didn't last long :(

*wanders off for an ice lolly*

It stormed at your place too? We've got cooler winds today, which is helping a bit, but gah. Me ded from heat. And in one and a half weeks I'm going to move to a warmer country. What is WRONG with me?!

It did. A really big one too with pelting rain and lightening streaking across the sky. It was really cool to watch.

I can't imagine being any hotter than this, I think I would die.
