Quotes
Today has been a day of quotes. If you ever come to visit the Jackson household, you should be prepared. As I once told Desiree DeOrto "free association is the name of the game". Subjects change often while one of the people in the household is speaking.
PeanutButterGamer, if you don't know this guy you should, has become a household name. (Just not the older youtube vids if you have kids or sensitive ears.) Phrases and vernacular he uses have worked their way into everyone's vocabulary here. This guys is the bomb and my kids love him.
Legolas' line in LoTR "Lembas bread. One small bite will fill the stomach of a grown man" is awesome! As I have 2 teenage boys, the line is hilarious!
My WIP, tentatively entitled "Lost and Found", saw around 3,000 words today. Loved the scenes that came from those words. Elijah and Jubilee have great chemistry together. I really hope that shows. The story has evolved as I have worked on it and you are going to love it.

No. No. Wait! This is not a negative post. Hang on..
Today's word count for my WIP (tentatively titled) "Lost & Found" is zilch. I know what I need to write but I don't want to! I know the chapter and how it should be written. For that matter I know how the entire book should be written but I don't want to write this chapter! UGH! *laughter* I guess I should just write the stupid thing and get it over with but *sniffle* yeah. Don't get me wrong I LOVE THIS BOOK but once I get about mid point for a WIP (Work in Progress) I start procrastinating. I don't like ending a book. Despite the other 11 in my head that are screaming to be written, I adore the story I am currently working on. Whether it is the other 11 I have already written or the current one, I don't like finishing a project. It makes me sad. :-(
On a lighter note, the Jackson household is incredible Doctor Who oriented. Tomorrow marks the beginning of Season 8 with Peter Capaldi. I am so super excited for 12's Doctor but NO ONE WILL EVER TRUMP David Tennant's Doctor. EVER!
I leave you all with this thought: if you ever find yourself in an incredible position take the time to seize the opportunity. Whether it's saying, "hi" to Michael W. Smith (which I didn't do when I could and regret) or getting a pic with Matt Smith *cough cough* Bella Roccaforte. Do it! Live! This is your one and only shot. Make it a good one!
I love you all! Shine on!!
