Well worth it, though... got lots of work done and, as a result, there's liable to be a zombie apocalypse not too far off.
Happy Friday Eve, Innamtes!

Topic: Veil of Shadows Subject: Great song, too!
From one of my all time favorite bands in the entirety of existence... "Live"
That one can be found on their "Mental Jewelry" album. *nods*

Topic: Veil of Shadows Subject: Nice!
Kind of puts me in mind of this:
"The Beauty Of Gray"
If I told you he was your brother
We could reminisce
Then you would go about your day
If I said you ought to give him some of your water
You'd shake your canteen and walk away
The perception that divides you from him
Is a lie
For some reason you never asked why
This is not a black and white world
You can't afford to believe in your side
This is not a black and white world
To be alive
I say that the colors must swirl
And I believe
That maybe today
We will all get to appreciate
The Beauty of Grey
If I told you she was your mother
We could analyze the situation and be gone
If I said you ought to give her
Some of your water
Your eyes would light up like the dawn
The perception that divides you from her
Is a lie
For some reason we never asked why
This is not a black and white world
You can't afford to believe in your side
This is not a black and white world
To be alive
I say the colors must swirl
And I believe
That maybe today
We will all get to appreciate
Topic: Won't be very active... Subject: Well...
...there's bureaucracy and politics for ya, Flirty; "Hurry up and wait."
The good you can take out of that whole thing, though, is that if they're postponing the thing, yet again, that kind of makes it seem that they're not in an awful big hurry to see him back behind bars, right? Plus, the longer things get delayed, the more time he's got to "be a good boy" and make himself all shiny, sparkly, and presentable when he does finally have to step in front of the judge... *shrugs*
Make the best of a bad situation... silver lining... sunshine, lollipops, and rainbows... yaddah, yaddah, yaddah. It's better than making yourself sick over it, I promise.
"Can I be a half-dragon, half-celestial, with a photographic memory and the ability to mount vulcan cannons on my shoulders that I can fire mentally whilst I play the harpsichord so beautifully that it makes my enemies dance uncontrollably?"
Topic: The Bracelet Subject: Whoa... Fantastic work, Chess. This is incredible work... very moving... very touching... very evocative... immersing, even.
Kind of puts me in mind of that Silverstein piece about the boy and the tree... *nods*... stirs up that same set of emotions in me, anyway.
Got to agree with the others here and say that this has got to be your best, yet. Don't let that stop you, though... keep writing. We all want to see more, I'm sure!
