trinityofone•Does anybody know a good place to find/translate Czech phrases? I need a couple of Czech prayers for Zelenka to say. Where oh where is my babble fish?
•The problem with having written a 25,000 word story is that you then have to edit a 25,000 word story.
•A little scene from the other night:
Trin is walking up a large hill with her parents to view 4th of July fireworks. There have been several other hills prior to this.
Trin's Dad: *feeling the burn* Oh, good--more butt action!
Trin & Trin's Mom: *look at each other* *burst out laughing*
Later that same night, my mom was also heard saying, "Wow! Look at those enormous balls!" (She was talking about huge globular flowers.)
•A little scene from this morning:
Trin's Mom puts the kettle on and then disappears. It starts to whistle desperately. Trin runs across the house like a huge dork and shuts it off.
Trin's Dad: Wow! You could be a firefighter.
Trin: Heh. Firefighter AU.
Trin's Dad: Huh?
Trin: Uh...there was an episode of SG-1 where they were all firefighters.
Trin's Dad: Has there been an accountant AU? There should be an accountant AU.
Trin: *starts picturing John as the kind of lazy, effortlessly good with numbers accountant, and Rodney as the uptight, frenzied, brilliant accountant, and they make mad accountant love*
Trin's Dad: And they should all be named Morris.
Trin: I hate you.
•I just wrote copy about La Toya Jackson. My life is surreal.

Date: 2006-07-06 07:03 pm (UTC)So by now I'm stuck with a monster that doesn't even resemble the first version much anymore it's been rewritten so much, and it feels kind of like three different stories smudged into one, with bumps and cracks where the edges didn't quite match.
Also, it was written several months ago, and I improved enough during that time that I cringe at parts of it.
On top of that, one of my betas has a newborn baby, one has a really hard time at work, one has a really hard time privately, and with one I totally didn't manage to reply to both her emails in time because I was feeling depressed, and now I feel kind of embarrassed about asking her again.
