Oh, look! A chicken!
Sep. 16th, 2008 10:48 pmFic of the Day:Storyteller. Not my best use of a prompt but, oh well.
I saw something strange and unusual today. I was driving past the playground below the bank, and the little rocking ride dinosaur (like this, but a purple dinosaur)was really bobbing up and down. I mean, really bobbing. The way one of those things can only bob if a kid about 10 years too old for it is riding it. Except that there was no kid. Granted, it was a windy day, but the swings were barely moving and none of the other equipment was moving like that. It was a little eerie.
In the meantime, a book I ordered arrives the same night I have to write a paper. Like I need that kind of distraction. Being in the same town with internet is usually enough to drag me away from an assessment standards paper about sight word recognition in the pre-K years. To be honest, since I started writing this paper, I have also developed a preoccupation with getting my hands on some Count Chokula cereal (do they even still make it?) and managed to write a ficlet (admittedly not my best one) for a prompt I was perfectly willing to pass by since I had something more important to do.
I'm usually not this distractable.
