Okay, so I ventured out. I'd been holed up in my office, working on revisions for far too long. Nothing like a little mountain retreat with the hubs and some of his co-workers to lure me out of my shell. We had wine. Listened to a great band at an outside stage in the mountains of Pennsylvania, and watched a glorious fireworks display. It was epic!
I ended up with that feather thingy around my neck. You can't tell it from the picture but it was blinking with tiny red lights. Nice! It was much worse for the others. A few people had balloon helmets made, and one co-worker actually looked like a court jester. Too funny. I have pictures, but no disclosers for the wall of shame.
Now its back to real life. No balloon helmets for me. But I did keep the feather thingy. It may lead to something awesome while I'm writing. I can just see the kids faces as they pass by my office door. Nothing like seeing your mom, typing away on the computer, wearing Old Navy Pj's, and a blinking feather thingy. Ah, good times! They have no idea how much coolness I possess;)
Speaking of coolness, please head over to Fiona's Blog today or tomorrow for: Yeah, but would you date me? This weeks feature is by, Rachel Pudelek. It's the first 2000 words of her WIP, DARK WATERS. Go check it out and leave her a constructive comment. I know she'll appreciate it.
Happy Hump Day and all that!
Yes! I would appreciate constructive comments. :) I love it! If I wore a feather boa with flashing red lights while writing, my kids would just walk by and shake their heads. They already know I'm crazy. :)
ReplyDeleteNice of your husband to drag you out of hermitage!
ReplyDeleteThat does sound epic! :) If gotta get out, get out in style.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations with the outing. I know that you could do with the outing. It really sounds like you enjoyed it. Good for you!
ReplyDeleteIt's the old navy pj's that did me in. Something about a feather boa and old navy lounge wear is just wrong :) There are so many more fun things you could wear it with.
ReplyDeleteLOL! I agree with Trisha on the PJ's. I think something more swanky would be appropriate. Glad you had a good time!
ReplyDeleteGlad you enjoyed your outing :)
ReplyDeleteA feather boa with flashing lights...gotta get me one of those!
ReplyDeleteHey TC! Took me a long time to stop by and I'm sorry. I was on vac too. SOunds like you had a blast. Isn't it funny how when writers get out into the world we're like children. Ah, to be away from our computers and living life instead of writing it! lol
