You are having an arthritic morning but may
mow the grass when the dew burns off. The day is going to be hot according to
the forecasts.
0830 hours. Summer is here, with
humidity and all. If the dew doesn’t burn off soon I’ll wait until after supper
to mow the front and work a little earlier in the shaded areas.
After recovering from the heat in the mowing
you both decided on Panera/Chipotle for lunch and Carol is presently at
Kroger’s on Tylersville for essentials and snacks. Let’s work on chapter twenty
and get another done in Page documentation. Last night you watched the last
“Believe” series and Monday night’s “24”. You were quite surprised the
president in the series was killed at a London stadium no less. – Amorella

hours. Jack Bauer is a great character. I tried to write a spy story once but
no character like Jack emerged from my head. That was my first novel I think – Anno
Dominae was the title – with a feminine ae instead of the masculine – I
guess I was thinking “in the year of our Lordess”, which doesn’t really make
sense – I was conjuring up a clone of Jesus but the clone (from the blood of
the Turin cloth) stays feminine the second time around. That was the idea.
Basically it was a very unworthy Dan Brown book. I think I worked on it a
couple of years and sent it to someone in New York who charged me a couple
hundred dollars to look at it. He said the characters were cardboard, something
to that effect. What a rip off; but I’m sure he was right about the cardboard.
Today I keep my characters to a minimum – Merlyn, he’s the dreamer; he’s the
main character.
Mid-afternoon, you are home and just finish
the newest issue of Popular Science. – Amorella
2215 hours. I finished Chapter Twenty.
It is interesting how I have to straighten lines I didn’t realize were curved.
Each word has to be inspected fresh as if I have never before seen in relationship
to any particular sentence in a unique context.
