That Moment...

It is in a collection of shorts. The book is Brave New Worlds.
Story is Pervert By Charles Coleman Finlay starts on page 97.

 

Aw, sweet. That is on my To read List already.

 

D'awwww!

TMW...

...you're in the shower, trying to think of how to outline your book, and you come up with the last line instead.

 

Progress is progress :3

 

Definitely!

 

that moment when you are trying to come up with a conversation starter to connect more with your new coworkers..... and they get up to leave......

 

TMW you get paint on your skin, and on the floor...and then...
TMW you try to get said paint off your skin with soap and water (no improvement), so you try a nail brush (still no improvement).
Oh fuck, I'm going out tomorrow.

 

Get a bit of acetone (nail polish remover) will take the paint right off.

 

Paint, tattoos, freckles, unwanted body hair...

 

The homeopathic version is to use salt and lemon juice.
Though from what I have read it doesn't do tatts well, but
will fade them. I think it probably burns like a mother F, and
they don't go deep enough.

 

Am I likely to have nail polish remover to hand?

 

I do. It takes chrome off of plastic model parts and can be used to strip leather shoes for redyeing. May have other uses as well.

 

Yes you can it will just feel cold, and once you get the paint off, wash your hands.

 

I asked whether I would be likely to have any nail polish remover.

 

Japan is just a tad too far away for me.

 

IDK, you will have to check. Though 75% rubbing alcohol would work too.

 

That Moment you go back to format your Back Burner WIP so that you can divide it into parts and place in in Google docs and are reminded about just how large of a behemoth it is. .

526pgs/ 166727 WC.

Of course, some editing and restructuring is in order. so I would assume that number will go down. But then again knowing me it may double. LOL.

ETA: To be fair there is alot of over descriptions, so Shaving will be happening. . Plus we do not necessarily stay with the PoV of the two mains. Sometimes it does switch to other characters if it's relevant for the stories.

 

I usually try to and I rarely even paint my nails anymore. My usual sequence of trying to get spills off of something is water, then soapy water, vinegar, rubbing alcohol, acetone, a paste of water and baking soda, a paste of salt and vinegar, brillo pad, wire brush, then sandblaster, or any combinations thereof. Being that it's on skin, though, you might want to forgo the power tools and remember to moisturize afterwards.

 

Maybe I am odd then. I don't buy things that I have no regular use for, so I have no nail polish remover, vinegar, rubbing alcohol (I don't even know what this is), acetone, or brillo pad.

 

When your dad and your brother can't be bothered watching international football, but Iceland are on telly on Saturday, so they're going to have to watch it anyway.

Payback for all the Premier League and FA Cup matches I've had to put up with over the years, haha.

 

That Moment.... you reach other political scene in your book, where you hope your politics is reasonable enough, considering this is a fantasy world. I Promise this is the last political Scene, we will be back to the action momentarily. I promise.

 

TMW you realise that you have forgotten two things, but you're at the bus stop and don't want to risk missing the bus by going back.

TMW you see a place entitled SG's Hair Salon and it makes you think of @Some Guy .

TMW you see Christmas cards for sale in the first week of September.

 

TMW you are introduced to what maybe the trippest, Post-Apocatylpic movie, and gotta put it on your To Watch list.

 

TMW you're reading a scientific paper on the effect of parasites on the colour of blue tits, and the paper suddenly turned into a horror story:
"The plasmatic fraction was used to determine immunoglobulin levels through a direct enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), using a polyclonal rabbit antichicken IgG conjugated with peroxidase [...]" (source)

 

Just found the name of my first album.

(If I ever finish it).
