If all that hard work was lost the WTF would have been so much worse.<br /><br />Suzie must be so kind to not have said anything for a whole month either. Either that or she was seriously questioning your ability to revise!<br /><br />I will be paying special attention to chapter 17 when this comes out!Fiktshunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17427683900301365770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4463170686978757118.post-20723880414389433562011-03-26T03:16:19.073-07:002011-03-26T03:16:19.073-07:00It's okay, Lisa honey.

I can relate because it always seems to rain when I have good letters in my mailbox... or books on the porch. I'm glad your crisis was averted!<br /><br />I've had lots of WTF moments, too. Left the garage door open when I went to work. (Thank goodness for parents). Brushed my teeth with moisturizer.

The problem is thinking about what I have to do in the future, rather than what I am doing in the present moment. I've decided to open the attachment on sent mail to be sure I did attach the right thing from now on!Tricia J.

So, I put potatoes on the stove and start cooking when my brother comes over and wants some music off of my computer. The plan was to show him the file and go back to the kitchen. Fast forward an hour later, I open the door and the whole house smells like smoke. The reason I'd closed the door in the first place was because I didn't want the whole house smelling like (cigarette) smoke, talk about irony. Nothing bad really happened in the end, other than I had to throw the pot away and open every window in the house.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4463170686978757118.post-77518355558355882432011-03-25T09:18:32.585-07:002011-03-25T09:18:32.585-07:00It feels good to know that you're actually hum...It feels good to know that you're actually human and make mistakes...I'm not sure if some of your characters would admit to those mistakes.

My fingers just kept missing the "c" for some reason, but it's not like I didn't go back and spell it right the instant I pressed the space key. <br /><br />I wrote a tweet which stated, "I go through weird not-being-able-to-spell-certain-words periods. Today is apparently a Brenna-can't-spell-director day. #spelllingfail"<br /><br />Notice any problems with that hash tag? Like the three Ls? I didn't mean to do that at all. Funny now. Only proves my point for the tweet. But now I feel like an idiot.Brennahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03852146274411023781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4463170686978757118.post-29809471714259180272011-03-25T08:20:49.503-07:002011-03-25T08:20:49.503-07:00That is so funny (although I'm sure it wasn...That is so funny (although I'm sure it wasn't at the time). I feel like my whole life is a WTF moment! My kids are great about reminding me of the things I need to be reminded about. You know, like don't forget to pick me up, don't forget to buy stuff for lunches. You are not alone!Julie Musilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02150454913885915017noreply@blogger.com
