Ego Trip

To repair my pride after our pitiful final game during our tournament yesterday, I shall list three things that make me feel wonderful.

#1 - I finally broke 200 pages. I'm typing on 204 right now (well, not RIGHT now, but you know what I mean). Anloi is very tired, Maric hasn't shown up for over a chapter, and Sinx is going to very soon try to cheer Anloi up. Oh, and Ciria starts to give up on Sfereshan/Kumeyan prejudice. It's about time, woman!

#2 - One of the numbered guys (I can't remember his number; I should really give them animals, or at least the two that aren't graduating this year) was being random and weird and he texted the fishing cat "You're all beautiful in your own way." This was said to the carpool of six girls coming back from the tournament. He was asked to specify, and I really liked his reply. Now, I wouldn't be surprised if he was just making stuff up because he had to answer for every one of us in the car, but what he said about me still made me feel good. It was something to the effect of, "She's my favorite girl on the OHS swim team because she's so nice to me all the time. No one deserves her." Even if he was making stuff up, that was pretty sweet of him.

#3 - The mongoose, Puff of Writers' Block, gave me this compliment after reading the updates I had for her...a while ago. "I must congratulate you: I've been treating [Son of Sferesh] like a really good book. I was eager to get the new pages, finished them in a day, and am now reluctant to part with them. I don't think that's happened since... High Rhulainn came out." That's saying a lot, because she loves the Redwall books (High Rhulainn was the last one to come out).

Anyway, maybe I'll go try to write an article for the water polo team. Or do the laundry. I'll probably end up doing the latter. *sigh* Getting ready for vacations is what makes you need them, I swear.
