So after working two lengthy shifts with my favorite friend Ray, I've decided I do not hate him. And he doesn't hate me. Actually, we are quite friendly. I know that's thrilling and you're all just thrilled for me, but since I complained about him last entry I figured I'd let you know.
BigFreak is watching Harry Potter numero threeo right now. I'm all for HP but not so much for sitting next to BigFreak on the couch. She smells funny. I'm not being mean, it's just true. Plus, she's BigFreak. The nickname holds all the explanation you need.
I really, really, really want to write in my book right now. Everytime I hear HP I want to write. I really, really, really ought to do homework, but I don't think that's going to happen so maybe I'll just write.
On the whole "my book" note, let's chat a little about it. I'm having this little dilemma. You see, at the end of this book, the characters are going to have sex. Period. Scene's already written. It's gonna happen. Here's the problem. This is not a romance novel; the mini romance scenes just happen because it's a teen novel and all teen novels have some romance. The problem is, I let my soon-to-be 13-year-old sister read these things. And she's the sort of kid who freaks out everytime one of the characters uses the word "shit." Sex and she will not get along. Also, right before this there is a rape scene. Once again, sex. So. Do I let her read it or don't I? Hmmm...
Maybe sometime I'll publish part of the book here. Maybe. We'll see how things go.
Until next time...
