Bye Bye Dog

[raefinlay]

I finally got a call from cute doggie's owner. The little guy will be gone when I get home this afternoon. Yes, tears did come. I shall clothe myself in sackcloth and ashes. At least Butler the Cat can now shrink back to his normal size.

Turns out, his name is "General Everyday Dork." What kind of name is that??? I think "Austin" would have been a better choice...

Ok, gotta cheer myself up somehow. Hey, it's time for Rae's Really Bad Joke of the Day!

Q: What is the most common symptom of a dislexic, agnostic, insomniac?

(Hmmm.....)

A: Stays up late at night wondering whether or not there is a Dog.

Guess I'm stuck on the dog theme. I miss G.E.D. already.

Writing Stuff: About to submit my very first...submission! *thumpthump goes the heart* It's a sci-fi short story that was much improved by two solid rounds on the workshop.

Do you hear the coffee calling to me?? Rae... RAE!!!

Sorry about the dog. :( But good luck on the sub! (It gets easier with each one.)

And "General Everyday Dork?" Is he for real?

Do you have doggies or kitties? (I dunno...something about 'everyonesakitty' made me think that maybe you do.)

[jmeadows.livejournal.com]

welcome!

And cute user pic!

thank you thank you! I actually bought a bulletin board for the proud display of all my rejection slips. Here's to a grand and glorious collection. *raises Diet Pepsi*

But not as cute as the ferret slide show. Nothing can top that. *blows kisses at Austin*

[jmeadows.livejournal.com]

Hehe! Katallen made them for me. She also has a thing for Austin.

Which is why Austin has a slide show and the girls do not. Yet. :D

um... I have... both (eeek, four animals!) My house is a zoo. :D

[everyonesakitty.livejournal.com]

hey, that's so cool, a bulletin board! awesome!

I bought one of those plastic mini-file-cabinet things, and I put copies of my query letters/stories/rejections everything in it. It's full now, which makes me proud, like I can prove I've been through so much pain and struggle. ha ha ha

[raecarson.livejournal.com]

Once my bulletin board reaches rejection saturation, I might have to move to a mini-file-cabinet-thing too! You're right...at least we have something to show for all our travail!

I loved your joke. Good luck with the submission. I'm not that brave. Yet.
