Random letters for a Tuesday Night

[apocalypticbob]

Dear Jacqueline Carey,

We regret to inform you that you have exceeded your allotted use of the word "alacrity" in your Kushiel series. Please consult your nearest thesaurus for other words such as "haste", "speed", or "quickness" which may also suit your purposes. Twice a chapter for six books is far too much.

Hastily yours,

Bob

P.S. Other than that, please keep up what you are doing. I'm on the last book of the six and loving them!

Dear Bob,

Congratulations on your cure for suicidal thoughts. It would have been more convenient if you had discovered this cure while you were actually having suicidal thoughts, but we'll file it away here for future reference. Apparently watching Saw V and Funny Games back to back will instill you with a fierce desire to live and a strong urge to avoid pain. As these are conducive to life, we find this knowledge to be useful, even if the means for achieving it were somewhat disturbing.

All knowledge is worth having, right, Jacqueline Carey?

Vivaciously,

Bob

Dear Oklahoma Weather,

Make up your freakin' mind already!

Snifflingly,

Bob

Dear Mom,

You are too funny. Listening to you talk on the phone about your big adventure into New York to buy clandestine knock-off designer handbags cracked me up. I can totally picture it, and I wish I could have been there. Someday, New York. Someday.

Broadway Dreamin',

Bob

Dear Friends,

I know I haven't been posting on here much lately, or at least much of consequence. I've been burning the candle at both ends, and it isn't likely to end soon, as I have something scheduled every weekend between now and the middle of July. I'm tired. Please, forgive me, bear with me, and hang on. It's going to get bumpy here, but it always does this time of year. Bob has pretty much two modes lately, it seems. Busy as a bee and depressed as a ...well... a depressed thing. At least while I'm busy I'm usually happy, so that's something, or maybe I'm just too tired and distracted to be depressed. Either way, I'll take it. I apologize in advance for days when I'm too tired to post or too tired to do anything but meme. It won't last forever.

Exhaustedly,

Bob

*snicker* Some of these I could have written. Love you.

For next time "depressed as an Eeyore" *grin*

Right there with you on the "busy or depressed". Dammit.

Sorry to hear that things are getting bumpy

I need to catch up on Kushiel. I'm still on book 4.

For you, a cloaky hug on a drizzly afternoonish, when the sun is shining far beyond the gray clouds and the grass is the brownish not quite green of burgeoning spring. For you, a kiss on the broad plain of your brainy forehead, a kiss full of stars and flight through space and wandering comets who travel and travel, bound only by the Law of the folded Space Fabric, until they must, as all things do, find their way home.

What if you aren't depressed? Just... bothered? There was a time I thought I was bothered, until I found out I was actually depressed. Funny ol' thing, life.

Yes...I do love those silly books! I'm already wishing there were more! Grand adventures all!

YaY for a cure for suicidal thoughts!

And I am glad that your scheduled busyness contains places that I will be too!!!

Woohoo!! Thank you for that info!

You watched Saw V and Funny Games back-to-back? Man...

When I saw Saw V in the theaters, I talked to a guy who missed IV and he was completely lost. At least you could watch the Nightmare on Elm St. movies in almost any order.

Did you see that the guy who played Rorschach will be playing Freddy in the relaunch of the series?
