I think I'm glad I have no idea what "Wiggles" are.

I'm doing the happy dance! I just hit 50,000 plus in Nanowrimo. Woot!

Let me enlighten you.

Your life is not complete until you've watched one song of the Wiggles:

Congratulations!!

50,000 (I'm assuming) words is pretty impressive.

Gee, thanks Kaz.

I guess I can cross that one off my bucket list.

My life is now complete.

Otherwise, it would suck me in and I couldn't look away, just like road kill on the highway. You know you don't want to look, but you can't help yourself. I'm pretty sure this condition is called "The Wiggles Syndrome". I know the same thing happened with my two older kids, only it was "The Barney Show" and involved a BIG purple dinosaur.

Uh, is it wrong that I had a tiny crush on one of the wiggles (Iʻm not saying which one) for a brief, half-hour period when my children were young and I felt a little trapped. Something about watching the wiggles day in day out for a few months, sleep deprivation (Iʻm sure I was nursing one or the other kid), and, well, I guess I just went crazy!

Luckily, we were never into the big purple dinosaur, and our brief teletubby obsession was quickly extinguished (whoops, kids, we donʻt seem to get that channel anymore!). (but teletubbies, talk about a train wreck you canʻt turn away from! when they go all spacey and their bellies start showing a tv show, itʻs like you go into a trance...I could see the teletubby show being used to impart subliminal messages)

Trying to figure out how long it's going to take the earth to implode after I got a perfect score on the accounting assignment I turned in last weekend. The reason I'm positive the earth is going to implode is that I didn't have the faintest idea of what I was doing with that assignment. How I got a perfect score on it is totally and completely beyond me, so all I can surmise is that it is a sign of the end of the world as we know it.

Or maybe it means you don't need to know what you're doing when you do accounting. Congrats anyway

Oh dear lord! NOTHING is more annoying than Barney... "I love you, you love me..." GAH!

Well, I'll take that back... TeleTubbies is worse than Barney

How about Pocoyo?

Doing the voiceover is probably the highlight of Stephen Fry's career.

I have to confess I sent my son a small stuffed Barney as an xmas gag gift when he was stationed in England. when he wanted to be particularly annoying when he was a teen he would sing the "I love you, you love me...." GAH!!! he was REALLY upset with me over that gift!

I have posted the first two chapters in the Writer's Corner under Armistice Walker and the Golden Orb.

I might post some more. Don't know. My wife is really encouraging me to go the try to get published route, so having the complete book out there might decrease my chances even more than the abysmal chances already there. I have to think about it.
