Ahah, this was interesting. Now about the "embarrassing pictures", maybe they are just not "embarrassing" for them and that's why they don't care about your seeing them? I mean, where's the problem with enjoying porn? Sex can be good even when it's with oneself. I love all these things about cereals in computers and such! I think I would be the kind of customer who would piss you off because I am not good at understanding computer stuff so I would tend to ask for help quite quickly, even when it's not necessary.
I love hearing these kinds of stories. It makes me laugh. You could probably write a book about all the things you see.
woah, that's really cool, Pen
Thanks for the comments and advice. Mother H: Yeah, I was afraid people would know it was me, thus disqualifying my story! Virgil: Well, not just the limit, but this was written based on a half-hour TV show, so they rushed as well. Wilbur: Narrative deficient? Here I thought it didn't have enough action! Love to all Pen
Pen,the story is apparently going swift as there a raft of conversations solely and the narrative is deficient.But the story is quite average,endeavour to tweak it.
This was a good story Pen. What prevented me from voting for this one was that the ending seemed rushed. I know that dreaded 2000 word limit. I wish we could raise that, even just a little.
Well, Pen. I loved this story. I should have known it was yours. It’s very much something I would expect from you, but I didn’t make the connection. It was a great story. I had such a hard time deciding on what to vote for and then there was that tie and it really made didn’t help my decision. There were several excellent stories this time. I wonder if the quality of the writers has improved of if the writer’s quality has improved I’ve seen competitions where any of the stories from this last time would have easily won!
Uncle Pen! I didn't know you had Bipolar, too. Oh well, manic depression is one of the most difficult things a person has to go through. I am experiencing it, too. However, I am also glad to hear that you are keeping yourself busy. Take care, uncle Pen!!
Oh My GOD! That is AMAZING!
I think it’s great, pen, that you are working on computers some. I think you and I are alike in that we prefer to be at home. I am going to start volunteering at the school one day a week and I have serious anxiety about being away from the house all day. But, I’ll have to get a job in a couple of years so I need to try to get over it. I wasn’t always like this. Now I have to really plan and talk to myself about being away. A couple of hours is fine, but all day makes me feel sick. That is pretty scary about the skeleton. When my kids are all grown I would like to hike the Appalachian Trail with my best friend. Maybe not the entire trail, but I would love to spend a month on it. (I don’t get sick thinking about that because it’s so far in the future and the thought of not having all of the kids in the house makes me think I’ll feel less responsible or maybe more independent in the future) But wasn’t there someone who would kill the hikers several years ago? Scary. Maybe I won’t be scared about it in another fifteen years when my kids are all adults.
Greetings Pendragon,what a stimulating blog.I yearn that you would be a computer whiz in the future.I love learning computers for they are vital in my life.
Just wanted to say hi!
Ok, here's a test comment for you I hope others can now comment too.
Why is it that I have no trouble. but others do? Is there a Moderator in the house?
I trust this fixed the comments problem! Pen
It's almost as if people would rather make a fool of themselves as long as they get on the news. I even think this kind of thing is how a kid winds up shooting his classmates. Granted, you gotta have a couple of jets maladjusted to do a thing like Columbine, but, where do they get the idea? maybe a kid thinks he'll never make the news via his bowling or SAT scores... so he goes and gets dads AK-47. Who knows? 50 pounds! wow! Way to go. That's what I need. All I seem to do these days is click and dictate -- (sound like a musical group) yet, my appetite still thinks I'm climbing trees and skiing over stony precipices. I enjoyed your entry._P.
I also echo the sentiment that this was a good read. As well, congratulations on losing the fifty pounds. It is certainly no easy task, and you are a shining example.
If he had pulled that stunt in Dayton he would have been arrested and you won't believe the bill he's going to get for the 911 calls--will be over a $1000 I assure you. This does seem to be the age of entitlement at no cost. Personally I like to think I fess up to my numerous and ongoing failings. Sleep just a tad bit easier that way.
People have this delusion that there is a nanny out there who will take care of all their problems. People refusing to grow up, one of my pet peeves. Most of it is sillyness. But I can't stand it when people sue over the stupidest of things. Even if it goes no where it clogs the courts. But unfortunately some actually click and they win. It amazes me. Actually horrifies me.
Only in america. All i can say!
