likethebeerThe nanowrimo site had a total breakdown the other night, which prevented me from seeing it at all, and finally they totally went down. But since they've come back up, it's not incredibly painful to see any gorram thing, or--gor forbid--update my word count.
I wimped out just now by using a few of the verses from "The Book of Isaiah, Chapter 40", but in my defense it was completely justified. And it allowed me to link rather tangentially to Wright: I used part of the verse that is in the HIllside school that he designed for his aunts.
"They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength." Hey--a monk was murdered. We should have some bible verses. And aside from Psalm 40 or the "Our Father", nothing else jumped into my head. Sure I could do Whitman, but the Whitman verse at Hillside isn't good enough when someone dies.
Ooh! Word count: 17513. With 299 coming from the Isaiah verse. So I didn't totally suck off the bible bottle so far today.
And, OH! I named the budgie (the feline creature) quite accidentally but, then, in total homage to, Chez Staples: the budgie is named Soap.
