Boy, am I glad that big long paragraph I wrote didn’t get posted because I forgot to chose a forum field, because it wasn’t worthy of being called content. Not much of a content creator here. Whew. It would be nice if we could keep this ball rolling again, though.
What is that story where there is the giant that is washed up on the shore and all the little tiny people have to tie ropes to him to drag him? Etymology and fairy tales. They rule my life in a strange, underhanded way.

Don't seel yourself "short"!

Um, yeah.
I think I wrote for 3 nights, and then realized why I was a poetry focus in college - it’s a lot shorter, and you get to play with words obsessively forever. But I might keep at it, because no one wants to read my poetry, including me.
My neighbor finished, though. She is the one from whom I learned about the project. I will bow as “not worthy” when she walks by with her dog from hence forward.
