    TMW you're watching TV and you know that such a hard cringe is coming that you pause it and can't bring yourself to press play.

    TMW you find a silent stop animation film using dead bugs as the cast.

    IIRC, it was that film or a similar one that pioneered stop motion animation and made critics believe the director had actually trained insects.

    Quick research: An earlier film using the same techniques by the same director. From Wikipedia:

    TMW you're having such a vivid, realistic dream that when your alarm goes off and you open your eyes it takes you a little while to re-adjust to your real life.

    TMW you begin an outline for that sci-fi idea you had in your head for the longest time and everything finally begins to make sense. :p God, I missed Helen Chert.

    TMW you say goodbye to an 80 year old 'acquaintance' with a loving hug, and you put your hand right on her bottom, like cupping a cheek. Felt terrible afterwards.

    'Who'd have thought it?' she'll be saying, 'Mat, the sex offender.'

    [CREEP]

    She was really tiny, 4'11 kind of thing/reason...ing...

    Roll with it. If it doesn't work out, well, it's not like you'll have to wait long for things to resolve themself.

    Thanks, I feel better. Keep rolling the moment over in my mind. Also I think I gurgled.

    Either you guys are absolutely hilarious or I was in desperate need of stress relief. Whichever, I laughed 'till I cried. Thanks!

    TMW you start editing and you cut 75% off your MS.

    On the bright side, you have a quarter of a book to work with...:0

    That is a hell of a chunk to cut. Like only have a lung, a head, and heart to work with.
    Maybe an arm if we go by weight of the original whole mass. :p

    Good luck with building it back up, or whatever you intend it to be length wise. :superidea:

    And then mine finds the first bit of dirt possible in which to roll. If said dirt contains feces of any kind she considers it a fabulous add-on.
