Good Mornin' World!!

Ok, this is gonna be a big, crazy mess cuz I've pretty mch been up for about 20 minutes because I started having one of those 'yeah, asleep, but kinda leaning towards waking, can sorta directionalize it & remember' kinda dreams & it was about my mermaid story. I got up & sat up & just sat there in the dark for a few minutes while I made sure what I was thinknig & getting together all the details I coul,d then I grabbed my external HD, raced in here & started typing notes! I don't usually do notes or outlines or whatever, but for a few 'X struck me as being a really cool line/scene/twist, but I'm about 80 pages before then' where I'll scribble a sentence or two for later, but this morning, nope! it's like 600 words of new note! And, if my somewhate crazed & sleep addled brain does say so myself, they're good ideas! Things that're gonna be so cool & interesting to try'n sort out into something, lol, a little more coherent than a half asleep at 6:30 a.am., scribbling like a mad woman to keep hold of dream images brain, something useable & interesting &, lol in some kinda order!

OK....*takes deep breath* I'm a little better now, lol. And I really wanna finish, no actually, I really wanna write some of it out from it's scattered piecemealed form, but I can't right now cuz RL sucks like that sometimes & I have things that I have to do for a little bit this morning. But, in about...*checks clock* 2-2/12 hours, I'll be home, fed & noone will need anything till this evening. I'm gonna write like a fiend!

Well....providing my buzz doesn't wear off *clings tightly*

Pre-Dawn Ramblings

Evening...or...early morning or....*shrug* well, you get the idea. For reasons I'm fairly unclear on, I just signed up on Twitter, so if you, uh, Tweet, I geuss (what is the verb form there?!?) feel free to add me if you like. I have all this stuff now, IMs, a MySpace page, this blog now Twitter. Only thing I haven't done is Facebook, I've never even been on that one, but apparently about half the people I know have it, so I suppose it's only a matter of time. I don't really do a lot with most of these things; I've got 3 IMs & most nights only use YM, I do minimal updates on my MS only got it to do the Peoria NaNo chats, dunno what I'm gonna do with Twitter, I don't even know anyone there, so far as I know. I'm est at keeping up here, so I guess that makes you guys special, huh?

I went to see Coraline this weekend. I really enjoyed it. Cool visuals, interesting story. I took my cousin who's almost 12 & her review consisted mainly of "creepy", so I wouldn't bring any young kids, but she liked it. Finished reading Stardust yesterday. It's somewhat different from the movie, but thankfully not in the you read/see one, then when you go to do the other it's a total letdown. Just different. The movie's a bit lighter, nut both are very fun stories.

I had an idea for a new story the other day. I want to do something like a colony ship or something with planet seeding or terraforming or the like. Bit vague yet because I don't want to just do Firefly or Titan A.E. I liked them both, I adore Firefly, in fact, but somebody already told those stories so...The only certainty I have just yet is that the ship/project is going to be called Appleseed.

In other news, my li'l 10 m/o niece started walking Friday! I completely understand if you're not anywhere near as excited on that one than I am, lol. But, I thought it was pretty awesome.
