Okay *raise hands* who remembers using this?

Or better yet who remembers Sanka…

Lately I’ve been feeling every inch of my 1600 years *smirks* but lately technology though I keep up just keeps whizzing by.

I typed up my papers on a electric typewriter. My first computer had 1 GB Harddrive and that was AMAZING!

What is that one thing you used to you ‘that was so high tech’ that this generation will likely see in a museum.

Plotting has Resumed

*kicks out Graphic Gecko*

Okay now that I got rid of the scurry little annoyance – it’s time to make Bj focus on what I want her to focus on.

*pulls out list*

Oh yes there are a few things that I can torment my writer with, preferably all at the same time.

– Zombie fic *checks off list* *eyes graphic gecko peaking over desk for Vid/Fanmix to go with it*  If he’s good I may let him out to play for a tiny tiny bit

– Fisherman Story *Release the Plot Crab!*

– Next Michael Westen story that has lots of characters, twists, turns, and headdesking timeline *cackles*

– Basilica di Santa Maria del Fiore *puts Assassins Creed 2 on X-Box*

– Two words: Ernesto Olivetti   *hmmm hook him up with the Westen storyline HAHA drive writer insane*

– There’s that IMF Bunny who is still hanging from the ceiling – I may go poke it just for fun *grabs poking stick*

– Note to self hire a wedding consultant for the wedding of the century story *sends minion to get tux from cleaners*

– Adds a half a dozen timestamps fora  variety of persons, places and things *cause you can never have enough*

Oh and last thing on the list.

– Plot with Evil Bob 2 – just to make everything difficult! *rubs paws together in evil anticipation*
