Very funny as always. That was one interesting ending. Cool song though! I wish I were doing NaNoWriMo, but instead I’ve got HoWoMaMo (Homework Marathon Month.) Yeah! You like tea with a lot of sugar!

Ian, the amount of sugar you add to your tea is ridiculous. Canon in D…so fun to play on piano. I was definitely wondering what was going on with that till we got to the screamo music. I can’t see you listening to classical.“Type sentences you will dislike” “Pretend to be productive” “Rewrite everything you just wrote”. Hehehe. Sounds oh so familiar. I have to say one thing, though. I find I can’t write worth a sixpence if I write on the computer. Yellow, lined paper. Uniball Vision Elite pen. Music. Oh yes… Keep up the good work!

But Stephanie…tea is only good with the syrupy sweet taste of way too much sugar! Well…not really because I like it without sugar too. But somehow nothing beats sugary tea. And that’s funny because Canon in D is one piano piece I wish was never written. My teacher made me play it a long time ago. It was soooo boring. I never touched it since. I actually write a lot better on the computer, but when I’m writing by hand…only the purest white paper and the sharpest PENCIL possible. ;) Wow, okay, enough disagreement for me!

Haha. Well, it would help if I liked tea…or coffee…or anything hot other than hot chocolate. Chai latte is okay…I guess… Canon in D is beautiful. And overdone, I guess. It’s nowhere near as bad as Fur Elise. Oh my goodness, that song is HORRIBLE beyond reason. Right now I like playing Ragtime music, like Maple Leaf Rag and Entertainer, stuff like that. Ugh. I used to write on the computer, but then I discovered the love of paper, probably partially because of writing letters to Caleb *cough* Pencil is possible, as long as it is automatic, .05 lead. White paper is also okay, I guess. But then I discovered that we had yellow paper and I gave it a try and liked it best. Now I write all of my reports and stories and such on it. :)

I prefer .07 lead. And white paper. I’m an artist, artists like white paper. But yellow paper for writing works well, I suppose. I’ve never really used it.
I don’t always use that much sugar. I usually use one spoon. But I wanted something sweet, so I used two. And it looked better on camera. So yes…<.<

Everybody prefers .07. I hate it; it’s so wide! Granted, it’s not .09, but still. It all kind of blurs together. Or maybe that’s because my hand runs over it and wipes it all away and because I write so small…hmm…
November 7, 2009 at 03:41
Well…
.05 lead breaks too often. And it’s far more difficult to find, and when scanning, .07 shows up better. If you write small, a large lead could be a problem. Of course, if you write that small, your handwriting might just be illegible. I don’t know. I’m sticking with .07. How are you with paint? That might be too wide. =P
November 9, 2009 at 02:26
Hahaha. Paint…ugh. I’m so beyond artistic, so that’s just not an idea. One thing I’ve always wanted to try is a quill pen, but since I’m not artistic, I don’t know how that would go. Add the fact that I’m a klutz and it kinda spells disaster, don’t you think? Of course, you know I’m a klutz, based on past cookout experiences. *recalls many tripping incidents* Yeah, possibly not a good idea.

When I actually get an inspiration to cause me to write at all, I find that a computer is best, because it is more time efficient, and I get everything written before I forget it. To be more accurate, before the spark is corrupted by overthought, and I forget what the spark itself was like.
Coffee helps. Lots of coffee. I think there is a reason why every short story I ever tried to write ended up in a coffee shop. But I’ve never been able to do tea, sugary or otherwise. Maybe that’s why writing is difficult for me. As Ian has so memorably phrased it, “Tea is the gasoline of a fervent novelist.”
Canon in D is perfectly wonderful, and I can’t believe that it took me so long to add it to my music library. Fur Elise is overrated, but has the potential to be terrific if someone would do something drastic and daring and simply change the chord structure. Not the melody; just the chords.
