Sorry I'm not going to make it to McK's. I tried. Left an hour ago and just got home again - first they were doing clean up along 53, so stop, wait, go then around Fisherville (Finchville?) a big ol' accident. Everyone was okay but they were all teenagers (5 of them) and the damage was huge (car hit by trailer hauled pick up - smashed, tires flattened, probably totaled), and at the top of a hill with no shoulders on the road, so they were going to sit there a while. Got turned around and realized I'd have to go the long way around and decided it wasn't practical since I have to leave by 11.30. Maybe next week. Arrrgh. | | |

I'm out too - got all ready but just too pooped. Just back from vacation and not recovered from all that "relaxing".

Sadly I'm going to miss the meeting tonight. I did something to my back that requires bed rest. I'll be back ASAP, promise.

Show, don't tell. We always here this. What does it mean? Here is an example from Frank Capra improvising a scene from 20 pages of dialogue depicting a marriage on the rocks. "Here's what we'll do. We show the husband and wife in an elevator. The husband has his hat on. Elevator stops. A pretty girl gets into the elevator. The husband takes off his hat for the pretty girl."

And after telling y'all to come out, I have to go elsewhere. Hint: Next time you agree with somebody that the house would look better if you got rid of the mulch and put in white rock, make sure they don't think that means you're going to participate in the process!!

Ha. I posted that right after a hard day at work and it definitely has that backhanded compliment effect. Sorry Gail. I don't have the collection in front of me but the poem I liked the most was the one where the person is saying they are this and they are that and contrasts New York and Eastern KY, military service with a peacenik. The different nature of her being. My words not yours. I hope that is better. Maybe. :)
