Girlfriend
So remember a few posts ago when I said that I didn’t have a girlfriend which in turn, would afford me much more time to write? Quote: “I don’t have a girlfriend at the moment which means my time is MY time. And as an added benefit, that also means I have much more money on my hands too.”
Unfortunately, or fortunately that is no longer the case. I met Ms Right at the end of November, and as she pointed out to me this morning, the last sign of my presence on this website was November 29th. Up to that point I had a solid third of the next chapter written but I stopped around that time to pursue her (she runs fast, took awhile to catch her.)
I am returning to writing again because it’s something I will finish, but mainly because she’s read through what I’ve written so far and has threatened me with either violence, or as added incentive, she’s offered to sit naked by my computer while I write – which is not going to work because of the distraction factor. So violence it is, Shorty.
By the way, if you’re not on Facebook get on Facebook. That’s where I became reacquainted with her. We’re old high school classmates that ended up on each other’s friends lists. Even if you don’t meet or aren’t interested in finding Ms or Mr. Right, you’ll meet so many old friends, classmates, and its so much easier to keep track of people that have moved to other cities. Just make sure you don’t get hooked on a game called Farmville. I have an addictive personality so I was like a moth to the flame when I played it for the first couple of times.

I never register for anything but just wanted to add my 2c. I, like lots of people, read SHMF around 10 years ago. I used to check back every year but havent thought of it for around five years, then i had this sudden urge to read it again (not expecting you to still be working on it) but imagine my surprise to find this site. Happy to see you writing again, though i personally dont like going back over my old stuff.
PS Be careful, life has a habit of getting in the way of writing =). Try getting up early to write, i mean theres nothing else to do at 5 in the morning right?
