Whoo Hoo

That's right everybody: Whoo hoo on a Monday morning before noon! I got a new and improved computer. I might even get Internet at my house now that I have a computer that will stand the shock. (Thank you Carl and Jill; you rock the free world.) Seriously, yesterday felt like some counter-curse had undone a really nasty spell, and suddenly, words were falling from my fingertips like petals from tree branches. I wrote for hours yesterday. I popped in a CD and listened to it on my new speakers and got lost under the music and found the words. For me, the words are everything. When they are gone, it is hell. Ah, but when they are there, it is magic! I would sell my soul for more. Yes, I am a crazy writer. Basically, that's why I don't have a real entry right now: I was too busy playing on my new computer. But I couldn't let Monday go by without celebrating a little. Maybe tomorrow, party people. Thanks for hanging with me.

Do petals fall from trees?? :-) Ok, you have to let me joke about it, I'm allowed!! Plus I really like the analogy... it makes one thing of a flowering tree shedding it's spring bouquet...

I am glad you are writing again!!

"petals from tree branches"?

how about "flowing like water in the gutter after a rainstorm"...ok not my best attempt....but non-the-less it seems to make sense.

Congratulations on the New Compy!

Flowing like water is good, but "gutter" implies that it's not good writing, and it is. It really is. Stil, kudos for trying.

Thanks for the congrats. I really really love it. It giggles when I shut it down. :) How cute is that?

Petals do fall from certain trees. If you've ever been in Louisville in spring (which, in Louisville, starts about January 30) you'd see the streets awash in petals.

It giggles??? It really does belong to Laurel then ;-) I know petals fall from trees, it's just more common to say that leaves fall from trees... :)
