When I was growing up, I was a Bengals fan. Even though Chicago was closer, um, I just never liked (and still don't, so pile on the hate mail) the Bears. And don't even get me started on St. Louis.
I had hoped that by publicly saying that the Steelers would have an easy time, that the Bengals would prove victorious. And it worked! MUAH-HA-HA-HA-HA!
MORE confusion in the AFC ranks! Go, Colts!
Didn't expect this at all. Book Two just hit 500 sold copies. Thank you all. Chapter 57 is now in the queue for tomorrow morning as my thank you. (Monday Night Hand Egg is about to start, so I want to see how easily the Steelers can beat the Bengals.) That'll put Chapter 58 for Boxing Day. You all have a great week!
Go, Colts!
Chapter 56 is in the queue for Saturday. To phrase it politely, there is some violence in this chapter where the descriptions are rather graphic. This is not done in a gratuitous way, but fits into the storyline and plot.
I get a chuckle out of the commercials a local men's clinic, because they advertise that 'women don't want soy boys, they want real Oklahoma men. You're not a snowflake, so don't melt when it's time to perform.' It's amusing, but I figured I ought to give folks a bit of a warning about the upcoming violence.
Now, it's up to you to figure out if I'm talking about the book.
We did my birthday party today, since it's rather inconvenient to do so in the middle of the week. My son got me a pair of EnChroma over the glasses sunglasses. These are designed for outdoors, so they don't work as well under natural light. I'm red-green color blind.
Not with these on. I can see colors to a certain extent, but I get a lot of them mixed up. I can typically tell the bright red paint of a fire truck, but the red leaves on a holly bush looked brown to me. Same thing with blue and purple. I've always been able to see shades, and I've just gone with, okay, that's what you all say is green, so I call it that.
Now I can actually see it, and process it correctly. I'm not as color blind as a lot of guys, so it wasn't a crying moment, but ... damn. They're not cheap - $200 - $300 a pair. But ... colors. I almost can't wait for the next rainbow, so I can see more than three colors in one.
Well, Chapter 55 is now in the queue for Saturday, but I happened to turn 59 today. We're so close to the end of the Book Two, no bonus chapter at this point. Real life in December is rearing its ugly head as far as time for writing is concerned, due to Christmas festivities and last-minute (or, since I'm a guy, right on schedule) shopping.
I have three chapters complete on Book Three (thank you, Jim and Soronel) - so I'm actually on schedule to start posting sometime in February.
