Yeah. <\/p>\n<p>Anyway, now that we&#8217;ve established I didn&#8217;t take it personally (I didn&#8217;t, stop looking at me like that!), I want to thank Mel for her hard work on this. I wasn&#8217;t the easiest person to work with, sending her a bunch of loose stuff and even one handwritten chapter, and she put it into a cohesive bit of work. Then she laughed at me.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m serious, people. She <em>laughed<\/em> at me. <\/p>\n<p>That I did take personally, but I could see her point &#8211; if anyone sent me all of that, I&#8217;d&#8230; well, depending on how much they were paying me &#8230;probably quit. So with that in mind, I also want to apologize for dumping my rambling brain dribbles onto her lap like that. Thank the gods she understands me well enough to know I wasn&#8217;t even thinking, I just&#8230;hit send. <|;)\n\n<a href=\"http:\/\/jodilee.sacredtriskele.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/LongAgoFuture1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/jodilee.sacredtriskele.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/LongAgoFuture1-201x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"LongAgoFuture1\" width=\"201\" height=\"300\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-1818\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<br \/>\nI&#8217;ve not really said much about this project, and I suppose it&#8217;s probably time to, since she thinks we can have it ready to go by the end of the weekend.
