Or sometimes honesty can lead to bluntness, which can hurt......
As for breaking hearts I hope you just break them and not annihilating them


Haha I've never been accused of being blunt.. People say I'm too gentle with the truth.....I've noticed that's kind of right....I'll say something as kindly and directly as I can....and it's like no one even heard what I was saying. People find their own meaning in the kindness sometimes, I guess. I hope I'm not an annihilator. I'm friends with most of my exes.....that's a good thing....right?

ChristmasJones Get in line!

Seriously though. Once in a while, very rarely, I'll see something someone else created, and I ache a little that I didn't make it myself.

I'm so glad to hear you are writing. Okay, you did promise to edit, but write while you have the ideas. Editing can come later. Meanwhile, I'm waiting for your books...

Being a gentle person, soft and kind to other people's hearts is a good thing. Sometimes it can hurt, but in the end, it's better for you.

Damnit. I said I wouldn't. I swore I wouldn't.

But last night at midnight, I accidentally started writing a new book.

So much for editing the last one...

I understand this completely. I was at the tail end of a book that had been going since June. It's good to get some time off from it, so edits can be done with "fresh eyes". Problem here is outlining, which is taking up my first few Nano days.

You're right.

I already voted -- we have the option to vote ahead of time here in Illinois -- and I voted for the pro-marriage equality candidate. Hope he wins.

Hope you slept well. That is a truly stunning picture. Absolutely gorgeous!

In reference to your response last post: Yeah, you're right. It was the medium she chose to do this over, so the fault lies with her. Coming back later and whining only makes her look more ridiculous.

Hope you day is amazing!

Oooh, I looked up that book you're reading and it sounds fascinating. I put it on my Amazon list to buy next time I order.

Welcome back! How are you? What have you been up to?
schiavona:
Now that's a loooong distance relationship. I mean, K_Rex and my's relationship was only 1200 miles for 2 years, TX to NC, but you have an entire ocean to hop over. Glad you'll see her in a few months. The wait time is brutal.

I am so envious of you being able to write. I've always wanted to, and have started a few time with what I consider good ideas, but I keep overthinking it to the point of paralysys...I just cannot write any more because my ideas hare off in too many directions and trying to see the outcomes of every direction. Several of the authors I read have said many times how their characters take on a life of their own and they are constantly surprised at the outcomes. Sometimes they create a new character that they are not even sure if they will survive. Laurell K Hamilton is one that has said this a few times, can't remember the other.

I cannot imagine that amount of freedom, willingness to let go and see how something flows and adjust to it as it goes. I'm way to much a stickler for knowing how something starts, a few key points in the middle, and how something ends, and sticking with that. I think that's what bogs me down every time. Well, that and that I don't type fast enough to keep up with ideas.

Good luck with the writing. I'll try to be first in line when you publish your first book!!

Love and happiness to you.

Looks like it was a busy but rewarding weekend. Voting in NJ is coming up soon - I got the paper copy of the ballot in the mail today and I'm looking forward to actually going to vote again now that I'm no longer at school.

As far as what I'm up to - I'm finally just about done with pharmacy school. I've got to complete a total of 7 rotations, five weeks each at different sites in order to graduate and get my pharmacist license - two clinicals with a faculty member in a hospital (both of which I finished), two in a retail pharmacy (in a supermarket, chain store (CVS/Walgreens/RiteAid/WalMart/Target), independent store, etc), two electives (I chose two nearby pharmaceutical companies), and one hospital dispensing rotation. I finished three of the seven so far and will be done with the rest by March and will officially graduate in May. It's strange to not be in classes anymore but I'm pretty happy with not having to study so much.
