silent scream

guess what some pals and i have decided to do? speed date. but before we do that in june (the events apparently sell out far in advance) we're going to some event that is called 'the silent party' or some such, where it's a mixer pick-up scene but you're not allowed to talk. you're only allowed to write each other sweet nothings.

i hope i don't run out of ink.

the whole thing should pretty well eliminate bozos who can't write well worth their salt. or who put hearts over their i's. or have illegible handwriting (that is i, my handwriting is turrible!). and you might be saying to yerself, 'hey slush, some people might like a heart over their i. don't judge judy!'

myself, i'm going to play around with different prose styles, see what kind of hook-ups i can muster on the period, semi-colon continuum.

but still, i think that's going to be such a kick. simply cannot wait.
