Pirates of the Monday afternoon matinee
We're going to see the new Pirates sequel this afternoon. In preparation, we watched Part II yesterday, after we got back home from the Invisible Subway. We split a club sandwich, then found a spot to sit, underneath a leaky air-conditioner. We almost stopped at IGA for eggs, but decided to postpone it.
After the movie, we fixed our No-Bake, stayed upstairs for awhile while Trish puttered around in the kitchen, then returned to the basement. It's so much cooler than the upstairs on these hot days.
However, when the Bryan Ferry/Roxy Music music video (VHS) played, Trish found some small insect to turn her into the Insect Slayer again. I hope we don't have to set off another bug bomb -- too much hassle -- but I don't want to see Trish's anxiety escalate, the way it did a year ago.
Today, we're going to the Layout for the afternoon hours prior to the matinée, where, hopefully, Cheri won't be too big of a bit-cuh. We got her in trouble for the way she mistreated Bob -- one more mistake like that could cost her her job, so I think she's walking on eggshells. Or at least (steak in the park), she may simply snub us. In either case, the next thing she does wrong goes upstairs. God & I wish that we could find a way to replace her.
I had been planning to mail "Galaxies" today, but realized while watching Pirates that I needed to make some more changes to it, especially the end. Tomorrow Car-girl drives the 2 of us to Malta, for Trish's dentist appointment. I'm looking forward to that, but it does mean that I may not complete "Galaxies" in a timely fashion. I'd rather have it salable than rushed, though. After that, I plan to do 3 fantasy novel RFDRs from over at Critters, just as background. True, I did take Fantasy & the Gothic in college, but that was a long time ago, & -- for modern genre fantasy, at least -- you have to actually read it to write it.
Then there's the Invisible Hog. I don't care what Harlie Davison thinks of my writing, & fictitious/nonexistent similarities of his own to my Death-Lizard. It's the motorcycle company I'm worried about. Hence, a name change is in the works.
Or I may finish Arn instead. I sent the first 1/3rd thru Critters awhile back, re-making, re-modeling as I went. Then Trish started driving, & my anxiety level shot thru the roof. Also, I could see the screen a bit better then than my current 20/150. I will finish it, added "put the hallucinations in italics crap" there to make it salable, regardless of the way they weaken my material.
After that... who knows?
