Bzuh

OMG so tired. Stuck in another low cycle and not sleeping, so creeping along slowly. Did some laundry, vacuumed, put fresh sheets on bed.

Wrote just a little more on that WWII AU -- everything else has stopped again. Am doing this on the fly, so to speak, so keep having to stop and look things up. Listened to a very short clip of an "Axis Sally" broadcast (here). It's funny how all the sources describe her as having a sultry, sexy voice -- I didn't think so, especially compared to such women of the same day as Lauren Bacall and Marlene Dietrich, but whatever.

Mare, I got your card today! I was so surprised, and it made me smile so much.

Mr. Nightdog is making pizza, and we are going to drink red wine. Maybe that will help me sleep.

I'm taking a little break from (re)painting the Hobbit Hole.

That card has been from Minnesota to Florida and back. I bought it last time I was visiting here. I sent it Friday, and I'm surprised it arrived so soon.

I've done nothing writerly today, but I did find a truly amazing Center for the Arts where it's quite possible I'll wind up teaching a class this fall.

It's a beautiful card, Mare, and it was so thoughtful. Mr. Nightdog said, "Wow, did she make that?" and then he urged me to tell you that you are living on the wrong side of the tracks. Ha, ha! He's so funny. *rolls eyes*

And yay for teaching! How wonderful!

I saw the little Chagall-like cat and bird and my brain squealed, "Nightdog!" and that was pretty much that.

The wrong side of the tracks is to the east/northeast of here, a few miles past the Russian restaurant & vodka bar.

You know you want to visit me.

*grins*

Seriously, I always write the dumbest, most embarrassing stuff in cards. I couldn't think of a single intelligent thing to say. So instead I just started doodling.

Indeed, yay for teaching! I'm pretty brain-ded over here...perhaps I will read something. Hm.

Well, it's just a vague thing at this point. The person I need to talk with about it is on vacation and will be back next week.

The lady who gave me this information said they're always looking for people to teach new classes, though, so who knows. I love to teach and there are several things I could teach pretty well.
