You have to love little kids, don't you? Today our Bible story was about the crucifixion, so some man was dressed as a prisoner and told them in character all about it, and then they were "set free." And the "guard" told him that he would be locked up forever, and many of the kids crowded around him, offering suggestions to help him escape.

And then, quite spontaneously, three of the girls became very clingy, and a fourth offered me her picture of Abraham. It will hang on my wall. As soon as I get some tape.

Pyrae, I got your email, but it is too hot to reply. Deal with it.

I have lifesavers.

You know, once I'm actually rewriting and not writing entirely new scenes, it goes pretty fast.

Dilemma, though: I have never printed out non-schoolwork double-spaced, because it saves paper to single-space. But I can't edit on single-spaced pages. And, um, that means that the final tally will be somewhat in excess of four hundred printed pages. And that's rather a lot. Especially for my dumb old printer.

But are you going to take some of my chapters, print them out for me, and somehow get them to me by the twenty-first?

Or are you just offering yourself for commiseration?

Um, I don't know. I'm going to try for twenty this time, but, um, that was the goal last time and it went a bit...over. But you don't have to do them all. Pyrae has offered ink if I give her paper, and I'm sure I can get Melissa and Heather to do some, and maybe Hannah too, and of course I can print a few out myself...

So, somewhere between two and four, probably? Double-spaced, between forty and eighty pages? *wibbles*

Each chapter is between eight and ten, single-spaced. So between sixteen and twenty, double-spaced.

I am in my email. I need not check it when I am in it.

Wait.

I have no idea what I'm talking about anymore.

I better go grab the revised chapter one from the site, then, huh?

Have you seen Spider-Man 2 yet? If not, want to go with me sometime soon? Also if not, why'd you read my review?

But now you know - ARGH. *self-hug*

What episode of Stargate is tonight, by the way? Do you know?

beneath the surface.

SG-1 awakens in a mysterious underground complex with no memory of their previous lives. In fact, they seem to possess a whole new set of memories. No longer Colonel Jack O'Neill, Major Samantha Carter, Dr. Daniel Jackson, and Teal'c, they are Jonah, Therra, Carlin and Tor, laborers doomed to a dreary existence, working the mines beneath an ice-covered planet. Back at the SGC, meanwhile, General Hammond is faced with the possibility that SG-1 perished on the planet's icy surface, a possibility he refuses to accept. As the General tries to unravel the team's mysterious disappearance, the members of SG-1 grasp at fleeting memories of their former lives, memories which are not just the keys to their freedom, but to their very survival.

Try spacing one-and-a-half instead of going all the way to two. It should cut down.
