Anyway hope Saturday is treating you all well, that the weekend will be even better.
It was not bad. Thank you.

Hopefully another snowstorm ensues so that we can get yeti walking the streets for me to hunt or coerce into eating my boss! But your boss will give the yetis indigestion, and *trust me* you don't want acid refluxing yetis walking around. Is that better or worse than Badgers with acid reflux? About the same.

But, you can't charge your customers for "upgrades" if you do it that way. :P

I need to start a thread for this silliness. Oh, wait! It exists already!
Sleep.
Night.
*yawn*
The only positive aspect of delay in job training is that I don't have to get up at 4:50...
Damn it, why does doubt immediately follow inspiration when it comes to writing?!
Work work.
Have to leave early tonight due to church, so boss wants me in an hour early.
Daaaaang. The office opens at 6, but getting here at 7:20 there's barely ten people here.

Good morning FAWTLY Folk!! Happy Wednesday!!! It was still a bit chilly this morning, but only a bit. Phone said it was a nice 42 degF. Not bad.
And starting tomorrow well have highs in the upper 60s/lower 70s. Double not bad! Of course, rain for the next few days, but the weekend is supposed to be gorgeous.

So, we opened our new office on the west side of Houston, and one of the drafters I'd been working with moved over there. He used to always draw pictures in the whiteboard in his guy Gary's office.
Since Tim is no longer here to draw those pictures, I told Gary I'd replace the art with quotes (since I suck at the art). Yesterday's quote was by Patton. Today's was by Chesterton. I've got a ton more from a website I found.

Someone brought donuts into the office today.
Mmmmmm......donuts.
Last night for dinner I made something from my childhood - breaded beef rounds. Think mini chicken fried steak, but the batter is not as thick. Just kind of dip the beef slices in egg, then in bread crumbs, then fry them up.
Not as good as I remember, though. I may have missed something. Still, they were edible, and something different.

A lady that sits across the hall from me was out yesterday but is back in today. Sick - sinus infection of some sort. I must remember to steer well clear of her. Last thing I need is to bring something home.
Almost makes me wish it were feasible for companies to offer the same kind of sick leave policy the fed gov't gave us.
Ah well, I've really got stuff I need to get to. You FAWTLY Brethren have an awesome day.

Have you dipped them in flour before dipping them in egg?
Depending upon beef you might want to smash them with hammer a bit before battering. And veal or pork should work better than actual beef, depending upon individual taste.
I think I worry too much about writing stories with a non-human protagonist.

Orthos wrote: Icyshadow wrote: I think I worry too much about writing stories with a non-human protagonist. Which we need more of IMO. They are harder to write. It's too easy to make them human in fuzzy suit which somewhat defeats the whole point of writing non-human protagonist. Unless writing story about anthropomorphised or anthropopsyched creatures is actually your goal.
Oh I don't deny it. Doesn't change my opinion on the subject though.
And I don't deny there could be more of them.
Time for me to get to work on them, then!
