but got stuck talking to the niece of the winery owner (neither one of us like the wine named for her) as she's trying to go to medical school and i'm the chair of the premedical committee. After that I'm like wow my friends don't get off for another 2 hours, my ankle hurts, my leg hurts and you know what I just want to go home so no wine for me.

The ankle hurts because of arthritis. The leg hurts because a cat scratch looks nasty so (spares gory details) cleaned it up.

Hey all I've been interviewed. Check it out here It was fun stuff.

Hmm poor Eliana D. Evans She (i.e. I) needs more twitter friends. I had other friends there but I guess they didn't like me...

As promised more on the microbrews, I tried Magic Hat's Howl, a black lager. It reminded me of Dixie's Voodoo Blackened Lager. I liked it.

Also Adagio's tiger eye tea is almost butterscotch like. I liked it a lot and they gave me a sample of "cream" tea. It's mild and slightly sweet. Very nice.

Apropos of nothing in your post, I still can't find Wood Chuck Autumn -- I found ALL their other flavors at Total Wine, but not the autumn. I do, however, find I love the "Granny Smith" and the "Pumpkin."

But now I want wine. I have some in the fridge.

I can not find the pumpkin

i should have had wine but I feel sad so it's best I didn't

Maybe your area gets the fall and we get the pumpkin. (It is good.)

Yeah, maybe.

that could be

but on the bright side i'm less than 1,200 words from breaking novel length on my scarred soldier story

That is good.

I have many scenes in my head -- now I have to decide how to hang them on my plot. I have to re-read what I wrote last year so I don't just re-hash everything when I start Nano.

I have to finish it early this year since I'll be at sea the last days of the month -- we actually don't get back to Florida until December 1, so I have to have 50,000 in before we set sail on 11/25!

yeah I want to have this done before nano starts.

Very cool. I have a bad feeling about nano this year (mostly because of all the work i have to do on lectures)

Starting early might not be bad at this point for you

I can't, of course, actually START writing until November 1, but with luck...

I have 24 days, instead of 30. A challenge!

Your interview was awesome!

Now I wanna try that Tiger Eye Tea. Mmmm, butterscotch. And cream tea, too. Yum.

Date: 2012-10-20 08:16 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] cornerofmadness.livejournal.com
thanks.

they're both tasty. I might even like the cream a little better than the tiger eye.

You're welcome!

I'm enjoying my morning tea right now.

ahahaha. I also have tea, and just finished my lunch of leftover enchiladas verdes.

I have the Tiger tea but haven't tried the Tiger eye. I just ordered more Loki and I'm trying a Mycroft blend (http://www.adagio.com/signature_blend/blend.html?blend=19185). So it might be a couple weeks before I get something more.

Of course, I just looked at the website now and saw that someone did some Baccano! blends.

Date: 2012-10-21 02:20 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] cornerofmadness.livejournal.com
yes they did but none of them appeal to me. they also changed the pricing on blends. the 10$ price now buys one ounce less and they have a larger size.

I bought the Sherlock and reichenbeck falls from your mycroft series. They're okay but probably not what I want to buy again

which loki? there seems to be many. I didn't like the ingredientes in cara's (i don't like rooibos)

Date: 2012-10-21 04:11 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] winters-queen.livejournal.com
Cara's blend is the one I have.

Though I did see that there are some others that at Thor/Loki themed.

I've never done twitter. What's it like? And, since undeleting me on facebook, I have decided to still keep my tumblr page. It's really neat to browse - you should check it out (I see anime art of the characters you guys talk about quite a bit):

http://tumblr.com

don't like tumblr sorry. It's not really a good medium for what I do.It's better for art (and is just as bad with leaking your info as FB from what I've been hearing not to mention the legal battles with them 'owning' what you publish or other people just stealing it off the page (not that they couldn't do that in a blog too mind you)

twitter is ridiculous. I do it because i have to for my writing platform. you're limited to 140 characters, it's just people talking about nothing for the most part
