The good news is that I'm halfway to my wordcount for NaNoWriMo.
The bad news is that my father called me today sounding like an addled old man.
He lives 20 hours away from me. He called me and when I said hello, he told me very reasonably "I need a couple of AA batteries. AAA. No, AA." When I asked for clarification, he got confused and hung up. It is really hard to watch him like this. I wish I believed this was not a herald of things to come, that it was just him misdialing my mother with a shopping list. But it seemed more like his brain misfiring.
My father is incredibly intelligent. If he is losing his mind, he'll know it before anyone else does. I think he sees it already, and is trying desperately not to let anyone else see. He smiles and laughs and talks. It's a jolly show for a broken heart.

And the key shinkage...well, the material I use always shrinks approximately 12% in the firing process...so I didn't shrink it on purpose, I just couldn't avoid it, ha!
Boo, no lesbian sex for Salome! Both my dates flaked on me! I'm no good at this dating thing.
