Hey, look at that! I finished Chapter 10. I’ve been a busy little bee. If only lunch breaks were a little longer, I might get even more done, but at least the words are flowing fast and free. Will this be the year I win NaNoWriMo?
“Don’t make me smack you again, big brother. Just do what I tell you for once, please? If you don’t, you’re putting everyone we know and love in danger. This is the way it’s got to be, Henry. Michael is the only one who can stop what’s going to happen, but he can’t do it if you’re there with him. You’ve got to leave. Tonight.”
“And if I don’t?”
“Then we’ll be seeing each other again real soon. And this time, it won’t be a dream.”
I guess we’ll find out, won’t we?

You know what Michael Douglas said about lunch. Keep pounding.

No, actually. Pray tell! I usually take about five minutes of mine to eat and then I spend the rest of my time getting lost in another world. It’s only grudgingly that I return to this one when work calls again.

He said “Lunch is for wimps.” I can’t remember the film, maybe it’s Wall Street with one of Martin Sheen’s myriad sons.

Maybe one day those old cartoons will come true and we’ll all be eating lunch in pill form. It would give me more time for writing, anyway. 😀

I don’t mind the eating. It’s the cleaning up afterward that I hate.

We’ve fallen into the old habit: eating out of the dishwasher. Simple but sloppy.
